Beautiful home. 3 full baths was a huge plus for our group. Appreciated the fully equipped kitchen. Fresh coffee w French roast. Hot tub was fantastic. Owner helped us source a wheelchair for my mother traveling with us. Easy trip to downtown. We appreciated the security in the home and ability to blackout windows.

We really enjoyed the place. Great location and easy to walk everywhere. Also very clean and looked just like the pictures. We were there for a work conference and felt it fit everyone’s needs.
We have stayed at many VRBO properties when traveling with family, and I can honestly say this one was my favorite!! Clean, beautiful, spacious, home away from home and great location, close to everything on the river walk! We had a wonderful time with our family and would stay here again without a doubt.

Wonderful home. The accommodations were great and our stay in San Antonio was much more memorable because we were able to recharge after a long outing in the city every day.

Thank you Cristina, it was our pleasure to host your family during the eclipse!
Came for an event at the Alamodome and the house was in the perfect spot. Loved all the amenities and how clean everything was! There is a lot of construction in the neighborhood, so we were glad to have our sound machine for the kids’ room.
This was a perfect house for vacation, just minutes away from the Alamo and riverwalk. There was plenty of space for all of us. The hot tub was a bonus, everyone needed it after all the walking we did. Check in and out were super easy and the manager got back quickly to answer any questions we had.
The perfect floor plan for three couples! Very comfortable, beautifully designed home with a very convenient location to everything we wanted to to in San Antonio. We highly recommend this home, and the owners!

About the host
Hosted by Jerry & Vicky Garcia
We are Jerry & Vicky Garcia, we met and got married in San Antonio over 17 years ago. We love travelling, and exploring exciting cities. When visiting new places, we like to discover great coffee shops, find hole in-the-wall restaurants (as well as fine dining), and to try craft cocktails or local breweries + wine. We have kids and two dogs, which we have taken plenty of road trips and flights with. Finding clean, safe, modern, and fun accommodations is always important to us regardless of how long or far our adventures take us. We love hosting and entertaining!
Why they chose this property
We have family and friends throughout the great state of Texas, where San Antonio has served as a great middle point when we are in town. The city has grown, yet we love that it still has that warm and friendly feel to it. Over the pandemic we decided to purchase a vacation home so we could spend more time with loved ones, and we fell in love with the Lavaca neighborhood. It is charming, full of life, and the location made it a perfect area. The property ended up being an amazing and opportune find. It is so well connected, close to the airport, and in a safe and friendly neighborhood. It is in the heart of Downtown right across from all the must-see touristic attractions, and at the gateway of rich cultural local and artistic neighborhoods which are known as Southtown. I love that we can catch a concert, dine out, hang out in the city, or engage with the local artistic community. You can uber for under 10 dollars / 5 minutes and get to anywhere + anything you might need; it is even cheaper than paying for downtown parking! Many locals will park on our streets to catch events in the city. The house is very welcoming and peaceful, you forget you are in town. The rooms are spacious, and the living areas are open + inviting. The property comfortably hosts 8 to 10 people. With 3.5 bathrooms and 5 stationary beds, we hope our guests feel welcome. With a fully equipped kitchen and top of the line appliances throughout the house, including contactless check-in, we aspire to provide a relaxed stay. The 7-person Hot Tub and the front porch should put your stay over the top.
What makes this property unique
The location is amazing. The layout of the living spaces gives your entire party a gathering place. The 7-person Hot Tub with its top-of-the-line cleaning features offers another space to share. The privacy that the rooms with their own full bathrooms provide ensures everyone will have their own space. The house allows your party to feel as connected or as private as they may need. There is plenty of parking if you have your own vehicle, if not you can catch an Uber right away (due to its proximity to Downtown) and at a low rate since everything is so close by. You can also rent a scooter or bike from one of the many ride-share options!
