Please note that while we strive to provide our guests with an enjoyable pool experience, the availability of the pool may be subject to unforeseen circumstances such as maintenance, cleaning, or other issues beyond our control. We prioritize the safety and satisfaction of our guests, and sometimes this means the pool may not be accessible during your stay. We appreciate your understanding and will do our best to ensure any impact on your stay is minimized.

If you need recommendations, we'll be available to provide them otherwise you'll have complete privacy. We'll provide you with access information before you arrive, so you'll have super quick and easy entry.

After booking you'll be provided a link where you can purchase upgrades to your booking such as early check-in and late check-out, additional cleanings, and more that will make your Austin experience even better!

We don't charge a security deposit! Where many hosts charge over $500, and where you as the guest risk them not returning your deposit – Austin Vacay remains guest-centric by charging a one-time, non-refundable fee (already included in your booking price) which provides up to $1,000 of coverage towards unintentional rental property damages (subject to plan terms and conditions). This means a lower cost to book, and because accidents happen, protection against costly charges. Plan terms and conditions provided by request after booking.

Austin Vacay is proud to be able to service Austinites and travelers during these uncertain times. We have taken extra precautions to care for our guests and employees by introducing zero contact entry, enhanced cleaning protocols, and strict covering requirements for employees. We encourage our guests to review Texas and Austin’s travel guidelines and restrictions before making a reservation. We must work together to ensure a safe environment for everyone that enters our properties.

Situated in South Austin, this area offers a rich blend of suburban comfort and urban accessibility. Known for its family-friendly neighborhoods and well-maintained parks, it is a community-oriented part of the city that appeals to a broad range of residents. The region's growing commercial scene features an array of dining and shopping options, from local eateries and boutiques to larger retail centers. The nearby recreational areas offer opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, and enjoying the local green spaces. With its mix of residential tranquility and contemporary conveniences, this part of Austin represents a balanced and attractive lifestyle for those seeking both city amenities and a suburban feel.

The bus picks up a couple of blocks away but we recommend taking a rideshare. It's about $10-$15 to get downtown. Scooters (Lime & Bird) as well as Lyft and Uber are the best ways to get around Austin, especially this close to everything. However, there are also a lot of public transportation options in this area (see CapMetro's website).
We have security cameras outside of our property at the entrances for added security and your peace of mind. We do not have any cameras inside, respecting our guests' privacy.
1) No smoking allowed (of any kind) ($350 fine)
2) No loud noises after 10 PM per city ordinance
3) No events or parties
4) No pets allowed
5) The cleaning that you pay for is to clean the home prior to your stay. If you do not pick up after yourself sufficiently when you check out, you may be charged an additional cleaning fee - price depends on how long it takes to clean up after you. We don't expect you to scrub the home, but simply pick up your trash and put everything where you found it
6) Minimum age requirement is 25
7) If you do not check out on time (11AM) you will be charged an additional night
8) Please see the House Manual emailed to you a few days before your stay

    Overall, the inside of the house was in fairly nice condition, and met our needs for our trip to Austin. However, we were visiting over Memorial Day weekend and had booked a house with a nice swimming pool to enjoy family swim time. We messaged the host ahead of our stay that we planned to use the pool. They told us the pool was currently “fully functional for guest use”, but could not be guaranteed against “unforeseen circumstances” “beyond their control”. When we checked in, the pool was completely green, we checked the chlorine levels and they were undetectable. We contacted the host - they did have the pool guy come during our stay, but not until the day before checkout. The morning we checked out the pool was starting to clear up but still had visible algae and we weren’t comfortable swimming and didn’t have time before our checkout anyway.All this to say, I would NOT count on the pool being available at all, it seemed pretty obvious the pool is not regularly upkept and the host made it clear the pool could not be guaranteed. They also were not willing to issue any refund for the pool not being available.

    The home was very nice and clean. The pool was nice but was low on water and the fountain didn’t work. That was fine but the pictures are deceiving and the yard needs some love. Overall a nice place!!!

    Disappointed in the upkeep on the property. Lots of tile broken in the pool area. The lighting and waterfall feature did not work.
    4.0 / 10.0
    The exterior features dead plants, over grown weeds, dangerous and loose boards and tiles around the pool, piles of garbage and a major fly infestation inside and outside the house, unclean pool, dirty grill and seating areas - and we had to reconnect and reboot the internet routers and TV - after cleaning - just to top it off. Property Manager was responsive, though the tone of concern comes off as fake when it’s clear that the property hasn’t been maintained for years. We picked Austin as a destination largely based on our expectations for this property and the pictures and information in the listing. It was massively disappointing.

    6.0 / 10.0
    Overall, the house is OK. Ckean, but everything is in pretty shabby shape. The backyard is in terrible shape. Does not look anything like the photo on the listing.

    We loved our stay at this place while we went to watch softball games at the University of Texas. The beds were so comfortable. Communication was great. Would definitely stay here again.
    6.0 / 10.0
    Lots of small things in need of repair. 1/4 gap under exterior door in the master bedroom, both sinks backed up and drained very slowly. Toilet in master bath would run until you messed with the handle. Missing part of handle to shower valve.
