Great location-had everything we needed!

We needed a place near downtown, but didn’t want to be downtown. This place was perfect for our needs. Kitchen was small, but had everything we needed. Plus, the host provided our favorite soda for us in the fridge. A nice touch! We would stay here again:)

Cozy Hideaway

Our stay was perfect!!! From start to finish we couldn’t have asked for more. The location was perfect for us as it sits right between our two favorite spots. The hostess was attentive without being obtrusive. She thought of every little thing making sure we didn’t have to do without. Our permanent SA hideaway!

Charming Casita

We stayed at this beautiful Casita for a week. The home is beautifully decorated and equipped. Carla is a great hostess that will help you if you need anything. The location is wonderful and very peaceful. Unfortunately due to the summer weather, we were not able to enjoy the beautiful gardens. We highly recommend this Casita and hope to return. We also recommend Sorento Italian Restaurant, the food is great and nearby.

"Casita Corazon"--a cottage with a heart indeed!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Casita. It's a beautiful cottage-like setting with cozy--but not cramped--accommodations. A large bedroom with very comfortable king-size bed. One and a half bathrooms! Lovely dining/relaxing area off the functional kitchenette. The back yard has a deck and gazebo for outdoor relaxing. Carla, the owner, is wonderfully friendly, thoughtful, generous, and energetic. We found the location quiet despite being near a couple of busy roads. They did not bother us. And the location is handy to everything we wanted to visit--easy access to countless restaurants and top-tier sightseeing attractions. We hope to go back someday, and we heartily recommend it to others.

My home away from home💗

This is my second stay at this lovely property and my go to for future trips to the Alamo City! Wonderful neighborhood close to all the good things in the city and easy access to major highways and JBSA. Lovely place with all the amenities to include a great patio and yard. Carla is a wonderful host and I’ll definitely be staying here again and again on my travels to San Antonio!

Everything was great! Had some wifi issues but It was handled quickly. The shower was a bit dirty and had ants but other than that, it was a very nice place with a excellent location to visit the Riverwalk/Seaworld/Fiesta Texas.

A lovely home away from home

Carla is a fantastic hostess and her guest suite is perfect! There is a large bedroom with a king size bed, a separate bathroom and dressing area/closet, a nice view of the lush patio and backyard. There is an additional sleeping nook with a writing area. Another half bath is also very nice. The kitchen and comfy sitting area/dining nook also look out on the lovely deck and backyard, complete with a cabana.

Highlight of our 2024 eclipse trip!

The property was delightful - homey, lots of outdoor space and seating, very well maintained and clean. The location was perfect - quiet, but easy access to downtown and the sights. Our hostess, Carla, was welcoming, attentive, and informative, without being obtrusive. We were welcomed with snacks and wine - perfect after a long day of travel! After the eclipse, Carla treated us to special eclipse-themed cupcakes! We’ve stayed at many rentals over the years in many places around the country. Very few could even hold a candle to this. We predict that we will be back!

San Antonio Casita is Amazing!

Carla and Gretchen have a jewel of a place here in San Antonio! Alamo Heights is a safe section of San Antonio with easy access to all the area. You can UBER to all of San Antonio proper from there, and they are minutes from world class museums for a rainy day. We recommend a car rental for an extended stay, as the city of San Antonio is spread out. This rental is spotless, roomy and comfortable. With a full kitchen, refrigerator and hotplate you could easily cook if need be. They even left us some snacks and beer to start out with which was so kind! We came to rain in the area, so it was so nice to be able to spread out with a separate bedroom/living space. The bed is comfy, there are plenty of towels and sundries, and having a washer and dryer are always a plus! It was just my husband and myself, but you could easily sleep more comfortably There is beautiful outdoor seating, and you have two sweet cats to keep you company. Grocery options like Central Market with a great beer/wine selection and the HEB grocery chain give you plenty of choices to meet everyday needs. Ten minutes from the airport and three great Mall areas meet your needs for shopping and movies. Gretchen and Carla have information right there for great options regarding things to do see, close eateries, and their favorite spots to visit. Food here in San Antonio-delicious options in every price range! Everything about this rental is well thought out and handy. They have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and fun. Best of all, these are wonderful people to deal with, answering every question with a quick text. We even got stuck in San Antonio due to a flight issue, and they even offered the place if we needed it for the extra day! That kind of consideration made our vacation memorable. We would stay here again in a heartbeat! I can't say enough good things about it, and I almost hate to because I would never want to stay anywhere else! Heartfelt thanks to Carla and Gretchen, so sorry we couldn't meet in person! We love San Antonio!

Charming casita in Alamo Heights

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Darling cottage with exceptional amenities. Master bed was uber comfortable. We had everything we needed and more! Gorgeous yard area for enjoying drinks or coffee and we took photos in that area as we were there for a special event. Close to everything we needed downtown and at Fort Sam. We could have definitely extended our stay if we were able and can’t wait to come back again! Thanks so much for the great bottle of wine and chips and salsa. We enjoyed!

Wonderful Rental, Location and Hosts!

We had a very enjoyable time at this stylish casita! Everything was clean, comfortable and stocked with everything we needed. Communication was easy, responsive and relaxed with onsite hosts. It was the perfect size for the two of us and could've easily slept a few more. It's an easy drive in to downtown activities, pearl district, etc., and then can return home to a safe, quiet and very nice neighborhood (where we enjoyed several walks). We also took advantage of the spacious backyard and multiple seating options to relax and enjoy the treats the gracious hosts had waiting for us. Gretchen also pointed us to some amazing wineries in hill country - perfect outing for a chilly early spring day! Don't miss a trip to the nearby HEB grocery store - "half food / half amusement park" is how they describe themselves :o) Iron Cactus was a great choice for lunch on Riverwalk - try the tamale pops! Alamo and Bluestar brewpubs were fun and for sure make a trip out to 5 Stones Brewery in New Braunfels; you'll love the beers and the outdoor beer garden is huge, relaxing and shaded!
