Great Family Vacation House.

This was a wonderful house for a multi-generational family vacation. The house was very clean, organized, well stocked, and large enough for a big group. The view was amazing! The pool was fun for everyone. Also, the location was great for the typical San Antonio attractions. We went to the River Walk and Sea World. We also just relaxed at the house and enjoyed the pool and the great sport court. Arturo was a great host! This house is a great choice for a family vacation!

Upscale Home in Helotes, TX

We loved the attention to details during our 5-night stay at the Dominguez's luxury home in Helotes with amazing views of the Texas hill country. We checked in to a very clean house and made us feel at home instantly. The house is equipped with everything you expect in a highly functional home. The house has easy access to major highways and is close to all retail stores. Thank you Art and family for sharing their wonderful home with us.

Wonderful family gathering

Great property, all the amenities! Wished we could have spent more time. The location was a little out of the city but worth it—has enough to entertain adults and kids without needing to go anywhere. If I had to complain about anything it would just be the heat! Obviously we were there in July, and didn’t have flexibility on dates due to family events. Would be great to have an umbrella on the pool deck, but outside of July/August it probably isn’t needed. Really a wonderful property.

Excellent home with beautiful views

Truly enjoyed our stay! We were in the San Antonio area for a funeral and this beautiful home provided us the perfect amount of space for our family. The kids enjoyed swimming, basketball and playing games when they needed a break. The views and outdoor areas provided the adults places to reflect, refresh and renew our minds and souls. Location was perfection!

Relaxing and Convenient

I was impressed with the attention to detail Arturo presented with this home. As a real estate broker I appreciated the quality of the home and it’s amenities. The personal touches did not go unnoticed. The spectacular view, relaxing pool and hot tub, as well as the outdoor kitchen and fireplace provided for an amazing time. The cherry on the top of our stay was the steam shower in the master bathroom. It was incredible. Thank you Arturo for proving us a wonderful family vacation in your home.

Exactly as pictured — and even better!

Our group of 9 adults and 2 children (ages 2 and 7 months) had an absolutely wonderful 3-night stay in this luxury home, and enthusiastically recommend it for any group. We loved our stay, were sad to leave and can't wait to come back!! Here are some of the highlights: - The property is exactly as pictured and described, and surpasses expectations, with comfortable beds, cozy couches, nice kitchen appliances, great tech (TVs, WiFi, etc) and gorgeous views. - The outdoor spaces and pool are amazing (the pool heater worked great - we were very comfortable even when cloudy!). We didn't need to leave the property (except for groceries and amenities) because it was so entertaining and perfect. - The location is safe, secure and beautiful. Easy to locate, close to grocery and stores. - Clean, well-stocked, and thoughtful. Example: The host even went so far as having multiple outlets/power strips next to the beds so that you didn't have to search for an outlet to charge your phone. Also, the showers had shampoo, body wash, etc in them — like a hotel. Small things that really made it feel like a vacation. - The property manager! Arturo is so kind and such a pleasure. We had a few instances of needing to communicate with him (nothing was wrong, just an early check-in request, crib & high-chair requests, and AC guidance), and he was incredibly communicative and helpful. We could tell he wanted us to enjoy our stay, and it really set the tone for the trip! Can't wait to return!

Beyond Our Expectations!!!!

Our family enjoyed every minute of our stay here. The photos and descriptions were very accurate and the property went beyond our expectations. It made our visit to San Antonio memorable and relaxing. It was quiet, spacious and fully furnished with everything that we needed to enjoy our time together. It was a great space where the kids could enjoy the pool while others could take a nap, if they wanted to. The kitchen was fully furnished with dishes, pots and pans - everything that we needed was right there. The views were spectacular and we felt right at home from the moment we walked through the door. Having our entire family under one roof was perfect. The property really was top notch, with every detail taken care of. The host was gracious and communicated well. This was our first VRBO and we are definitely fans and will be VRBO patrons in the future.

Perfect family getaway

Upon arriving, the house smelled amazing and the host had left us a card, fresh flowers and a bottle of wine. We immediately enjoyed the pool and a game of ping pong. Our boys enjoyed playing pool and foosball inside and playing on the basketball court outside. My husband and I enjoyed the massage chair in the master bedroom and the hot tub outside. We slept very well on the comfortable beds.They thought of everything inside and out! We look forward to staying here again in the future.

Phenomenal Property and Experience

Our stay at Vista Grande was phenomenal! The beauty of the property can only be fully experienced in-person, surrounded by friends or family. From the vast space that each room and/or living areas offers, to the outdoor amenities, it truly was such an amazing experience to soak in for the weekend. I HIGHLY recommend booking your stay at Vista Grande! Mr.Arturo goes above and beyond to ensure that all is running smoothly. He was very welcoming and communicative throughout the entire experience! Overall, as a guest, in every aspect I left our stay feeling content with all of the lifelong memories that were made at Vista Grande.

Dauterive Family Getaway

This place was EXTRAORDINARY!! The property owners took exceptional care to make sure we had everything we needed to enjoy a fun, relaxing and comfortable stay. The house is amazing! The space was perfect for our party of 14 to be very comfortable. The pool and basketball court kept the kids entertained outside and the pool table and foosball table kept them entertained inside. Although I didn’t need it this vacation, having a computer and printer available for those of us who still have to work while away shows how much the owners put significant thought into the needs of possibly visitors. Arturo was great and communicated with us very well starting with checking on us as we drove in and throughout our stay. Definitely deserves 5 stars!! I’d give more if it were possible. Thanks Arturo!

About the host

Hosted by Arturo Dominguez

I am a husband and father of 6. In addition to managing the ins and outs of our rental properties, I run a private practice as a psychotherapist.

Our family loves to travel and spend time together, and we know firsthand how the place you stay can make or break your entire experience. That is the driving force behind why we strive to make our homes everything you could want, and more. We love helping families and friends create beautiful memories together. We hope you’ll stay a while.

Why they chose this property

Tucked away in the hill country and only a short drive away from San Antonio, Helotes is a special place that we've called home for the last 20+ years. It served as the perfect place to raise our family, and we still live in the area. Our children have now grown and moved out on their own, so we're happy to open the doors for other families to stay and enjoy the home we've loved so much.

What makes this property unique

We believe that Vista Grande has everything you could want in a vacation home. We frequently receive feedback that the home is a destination in itself, full of amenities inside and out.
