Perfect for Co-workers in town for a conference!

We all enjoyed our stay very much, unfortunately it was cut short by hurricane Helene. The coffee bar was terrific, the remotes had a spot for hanging on the walls in the rooms ( great idea for my own home). Look foward to staying again for our next conference!

Perfect House for Group

We loved this house, had two 16 yo boys with us who stayed downstairs. The location was close to campus and had a great back yard!

Excellent Group Stay

We traveled in with a group of 9 teenagers and 2 adults. The place was perfect for our large group. It was large enough for all to fit comfortable. Yet, cozy enough that we were able to spend quality time together as a group.

Good for large party

Overall the experience was good. I did think the rental price was high given the neighborhood and house being very dated. But the house was clean and we had what we needed for the weekend.

Property is large and super comfy 5 stars

Host communication is superb as well as property. Vacation rental by owner as a company is not a fair company and we will be not be using them going forward. Fees charged by Vacation rental by owner and their communication is poor. Trying to communicate with them via Philippians call center is bad and not flexible. We will never use Vacation rental by owner again.

Short work travel

We needed a cost effective solution for housing a mixed gendered group of coworkers for a short two day stay. Having two separate, fully functional living areas worked perfectly for the group. The trip went great, in part because the living arrangements were very good.

Why they chose this property

After admiring Hummingbird Haus for over 10 years, we finally had the opportunity to purchase it. This is our second large vacation home, and we were thrilled to add our personal touches to the property. Nestled on the edge of San Luis Mission Park and Lake Esther, Hummingbird Haus is an architectural masterpiece, offering plenty of space for large groups to gather and enjoy. We can’t wait for you to experience all it has to offer!

What makes this property unique

Hummingbird Haus is uniquely designed as two houses in one, featuring extensive outdoor spaces for everyone to enjoy. The upstairs boasts a spacious 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom layout, complete with a wrap-around front porch and a large back canopy deck. For those seeking a bit more privacy, the downstairs offers a cozy 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment. This setup makes Hummingbird Haus perfect for large groups who want to come together while still having the option to retreat to their own space.
