Beautiful house

We recently stayed at this property and had the best time. The house was very clean upon arrival. The host left ample towels for all the guest. We were a total of 12 people. The pool was very clean. The host was prompt and communicated very well. The location was perfect as not to far from HEB and the 410. I would highly recommend this property for rent and would definitely book again if needed.

Perfect!

Located in a good family neighborhood, it is only a 15-30 minute drive from nearly anything you would want to do in San Antonio! The house was very clean and we used the pool every night after our day(s) of sightseeing/activitiez. Gabriela was a wonderful hostess and was readily accessible when we had a question or needed anything. We would definitely recommend this location to anyone looking for a comfortable, homey place to stay. We hope to be back again someday!

Northstar Villa

House was clean and check in was easy. Host checked in to make sure things were going good. Wish there would have been a dishwasher in the house as we had a family of 5 making dinner. Outside area was nice and we all enjoyed the pool. The upstairs movie area was nice for unwinding after seeing all of San Antonio. Would definitely stay here again.

Comfy!!

The house is a nice get away vacation home! Everything is as mentioned.. There was plenty of room for our party and was equipped for our needs. The garage was not accessible and that would be my only complaint but there was room for our four small and regular size vehicles in the driveway. The upstairs is very roomy and the loft is a great space for relaxation! Thank you Gabby for sharing your rental with us!!

Awesome host

We were in San Antonio for my mom’s funeral. We had our pup, and we had to leave the hotel to attend the service. She allowed us to check in early, leave our belongings and our dog, so we could make it to the burial at 1:00. She also extended our checkout time. We didn’t really need it since my family and I were ready to go after a very long weekend. She was wonderful in this time of need.

About the host

Hosted by Gabriela Ortega

Host profile image
Our family loves traveling and embracing new experiences. As a full time host, I live and work near Northstar Villa, which lets me personally ensure everything is perfect for your stay. We take great pride in living in San Antonio, a vibrant and diverse city therefore feel free to reach out to us for recommendations or any questions. During your visit, you can trust that our property will be spotless and fully prepared for your enjoyment. My husband and I also work on construction and remodeling, which means we can quickly address and resolve almost any issues that may arise during your stay.

Why they chose this property

Harmony Hills is a well-established neighborhood with a balanced mix of seniors and new families. The streets are generally quiet, with occasional neighbors out for walks in the mornings or evenings. Local businesses are just 2 minutes away, and major shopping and dining options can be found within 5 minutes at Park North or Northstar Mall. The airport is also conveniently located 5 minutes away, but rest assured, airplane noise is not an issue as they don't fly over the home.

What makes this property unique

This property retains its old charm while featuring a brand-new, remodeled interior. Enjoy two living spaces, an open floor plan, blackout shades or curtains in most sleeping areas, a laundry room, front and back patios, and a grill. We've added a theater room and a fire pit area. Numerous quiet reading and relaxation spots have been incorporated throughout the home, ensuring you can fully enjoy your vacation.
