VRBO Bear stayed here - 05/13/2009 This vacation rental is ideal for those traveling by themselves or with a spouse. You get the comforts of home in an ideal central location for the same price as a mid-grade hotel! The tasteful, contemporary furniture and finishes provided a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. Thanks to the hosts' attention to detail like fresh cut flowers on the table and comfortable bath towels, I settled in nicely and had an enjoyable stay.

Austin is known for its fun, hip atmosphere and this vacation rental is in the heart of it all on historic West 6th Street. Walk down the driveway for a wonderful Southwestern meal and margarita at ‘Z Tejas. For breakfast or lunch, try the hip Portabla Café which is a few blocks away. In fact, CitySearch selected Portabla as the #2 lunch spot in Austin. If eating-in sounds more appealing, stroll down the street to Whole Foods and pick-up some gourmet food to cook in the vacation rental kitchen. The kitchen is stocked with spices and everything else you need to prepare a home cooked meal.

Although this property is a studio by definition, you'll find the term doesn't do it justice. The thoughtful floor plan creates an excellent division of space. The private courtyard featuring a nice patio table and colorful umbrella also adds to the living space.

If you are looking to travel to Austin, TX, don't pass up this rental! You won't find a better value for the price.

  • My husband and I stayed in this property in April 2009. We have used VRBO many times and this was the best experience by far. The condo was just as presented, immaculate, all amenities were top notch. The unit is perfect for a stay close to downtown with many restaurants within walking distance. Whole Foods is 2 blocks away for supplies or a take-out meal to enjoy on the deck of the condo. Craig and Elaine were wonderful hosts, leaving a personal note, fresh flowers and a bottle of wine. What more could you ask for? We will definitely stay again.

  • Perfect accomodations! Could not have asked for more - every little detail we'd think of was there. Very charming, tasteful, studio in a great neighborhood. Easy walk to any downtown locations you might want to get to. Very accomodating hosts.

  • Gosh, where to begin? This was the cutest, most convenient, comfortable, relaxing place I've stayed in a long time. Right across from Whole Foods, next to an amazing mexican restaurant (Z Tejas), near a great bakery (Sweetish Hill) and unfortunately for me, one of the most awesome ice cream shops I've ever been to called Amy's. I gained 5 lbs during my visit to Austin! Totally worth it though. Craig and Elaine were great hosts, too. I arrived to a nice note and bottle of wine. There were a few snacks in the pantry as well. I will definitely stay here again. Oh, one last thing...the Tempurpedic mattress was soo comfy. I slept like a rock! :) Thanks guys!

  • This little condo in the heart of Austin is the perfect place, (infinitely better than a hotel). It's close to UTA, downtown, Whole Foods Market (which was of particular importance to me). It's a great place to call home base if you're getting to know Austin in it's many forms. We were able to walk to dinner if we wanted or jump on the freeway. Your attention to detail created a beautiful little hideaway in the midst of it all.

  • A fantastic spot to enjoy a getaway in Austin. Perfect location! Walking distance to several hot restaurant areas and just one block from the mega originial Whole Foods. Interior seems very spacious for a studio. Minimalist but comfy. Like you're borrowing your super hip friend's place for the weekend. Hosts are amazing! Left lots of info on local restaurants and fun little soaps and bath supplies, including a hair dryer with real power. Everything you need to cook an awesome dinner and enjoy it on the private patio. No pantry items, so defintely bring that along - but no worries on knives, utensils, pots, glassware, plates etc. Hosts were so accomodating that they were able to ok another nights stay with ione quick phone call when my flight was cancelled. Left me a nice bottle of wine to enjoy as well. Can't recommend this place enough!
