About the host

Hosted by Amber Carroll

Host profile image
My name is Amber Carroll, I am the property manager of both of the Artale's vacation rentals. I was born and raised in Austin, so I have seen our city grow tremendously over the years. I lived in New York City for 5 years and that was an amazing experience, but there is something special about Austin's laid back lifestyle that brought me home. I love this city and look forward to assisting you with your vacation. Please let me know if you need any suggestions on restaurants, bars, activities, shopping, and more!

Why they chose this property

Location, Location, Location! Enjoy the convenience of walking downtown and the view from the 2nd floor balcony! I love sharing a bottle of wine with my friends from the balcony and checking out the skyline view! Such a relaxing place to sit and catch up! One of my most favorite parts of Downtown East Austin is that you can walk out the door and find coffee shops, eclectic shopping and some of the best local dining spots that Austin has to offer. Unlike central downtown, you are immersed in a locals neighborhood without the tourist feel, but with all of the Austin vibes.

What makes this property unique

10 minutes from the Airport! Start your vacation immediately and don't waste the time commuting! Some of the best restaurants in Austin are just 2 blocks away. This house sleeps 10 comfortably while being able to enjoy your friends and family under 1 roof! Open floor plan accommodates large groups!
