About the host

Hosted by Belen De La Torre

Host profile image
We're local hosts based in the Austin area, and property management is what we do full-time. We care about the details: every bedroom is set up with hotel-quality bedding, blackout curtains, and everything you'd forget to pack. We're just a message away if you need anything.

Why they chose this property

Manchaca is quiet and residential, but it puts you close to everything. You're minutes from Buda and Kyle if you're in town visiting family, 20 minutes from downtown Austin if you want the city, and just around the corner from Texas Keeper Cider and the bars and restaurants along Menchaca Road. It's the kind of area where you can actually relax between trips out.

What makes this property unique

Most rentals this size cut corners somewhere. This one doesn't. Half an acre of fenced yard with mature oak trees, a real chef's kitchen guests actually cook in, three fully remodeled bathrooms instead of one shared, and enough bedroom configuration (2 kings, 4 queens across 4 rooms) that families and multi-generational groups aren't tripping over each other. It's a full-size home, not a squeezed-in rental.
