Space for 8 Near Downtown! Easy Walk to UT Campus

Whisk yourself away to Austin's best-kept secret, where luxury mingles with a dash of laid-back charm. A sprawling 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom retreat awaits you, with a generous 1100 square feet ensuring ample space for stories, laughter, and unforgettable moments. Feel the elegance of our sweeping high ceilings that cradle a sun-kissed ambiance, perfect for both moments of relaxation and exhilaration. Your Austin chronicle starts here, amidst style, comfort, and the very best of the city.

You're not just in Austin, you're in the pulsating heart of it all! Embrace the vibrant energy of UT, just steps away, and indulge in campus wanders or the iconic allure of the Drag. Dive deeper into your Austin escapade with downtown's eclectic rhythm or find your soul's harmony at Zilker Park, each merely a heartbeat away from your doorstep.

Inside, let our living area sweep you off your feet. The large smart TV stands ready to be your portal to global entertainment, backed by high-speed wifi that'll keep you seamlessly connected. Whether you're streaming a Netflix binge, catching up on Disney+ adventures, or tuning into ESPN+, you're all set. When hunger calls, our fully-equipped kitchen stands at attention, furnished with every essential, a dishwasher, and complemented by a stylish bar area with stools and a dining table to bring everyone together.

As daylight fades, step onto our patio. With comfortable chairs and a breathtaking view, it's the ideal spot for toasting to beautiful Austin evenings. As sleep beckons, our sleeping arrangements spell pure luxury. Choose between the regal king bedroom or the inviting queen chamber on the main floor. For a hint of whimsy, the spiral staircase unveils a loft-style bedroom, complete with a queen bunk bed and the promise of dreams as grand as our Texan skies, all enveloped in our custom luxury hotel linens.

Essentials? Say no more. In-unit laundry ensures you're always looking sharp, while our bathrooms are a haven of refreshment, stocked with shampoo, conditioner, and indulgent body wash. While furry friends melt our heart, this slice of paradise remains an exclusive pet-free zone. Oh, and forget parking woes – two free garage spots come with your stay, with more options around if you need.

After booking you'll be provided a link where you can purchase upgrades to your booking such as early check-in and late check-out, additional cleanings, and more that will make your Austin experience even better!

We don't charge a security deposit! Where many hosts charge over $500, and where you as the guest risk them not returning your deposit – Austin Vacay remains guest-centric by charging a one-time, non-refundable fee (already included in your booking price) which provides up to $1,000 of coverage towards unintentional rental property damages (subject to plan terms and conditions). This means a lower cost to book, and because accidents happen, protection against costly charges. Plan terms and conditions provided by request after booking.

Austin Vacay is proud to be able to service Austinites and travelers during these uncertain times. We have taken extra precautions to care for our guests and employees by introducing zero contact entry, enhanced cleaning protocols, and strict covering requirements for employees. We encourage our guests to review Texas and Austin’s travel guidelines and restrictions before making a reservation. We must work together to ensure a safe environment for everyone that enters our properties.

Situated near the University of Texas at Austin, the neighborhood in this part of the city exudes a youthful and vibrant energy. Known for its blend of academic culture and lively city life, the area offers an array of dining, shopping, and entertainment options catering to students, residents, and visitors alike. Museums and cultural centers in the vicinity contribute to an intellectual vibe, reflecting the neighborhood's close ties to education and the arts. Outdoor spaces and parks add to the appeal, providing opportunities for relaxation and recreation. The combination of traditional architecture with modern amenities contributes to the unique charm of this part of Austin, making it an appealing place to live and explore.

Scooters (Lime & Bird) as well as Lyft and Uber are the best ways to get around Austin, especially this close to everything. However, there are also a lot of public transportation options in this area (see CapMetro's website).

Great location - campus/football
We had a great stay at this condo. It's in a perfect location for going to a football game and walking around campus. Close to a great little convenience store (Orange Market) and well stocked for a weekend stay. The communication with the management company/property owner was amazing - they are very responsive and helpful. The unit is on the top floor and I will say there is a VERY loud humming noise that comes into the 2nd bedroom/bathroom (presumably from the AC units on the roof). They do provide white noise machines (and when we were there in October, the units did not run at night so it didn't disrupt sleep). The bunk bed in the loft is pretty squeaky, so not good for light sleepers. We would totally stay here again.

The place was perfect for our graduation hub. While the outside of the building and the internal areas are a little tired, the apartment was clean and the communication, attention and helpfulness was all top notch. The location is perfect for campus activities.

west campus apartment
The apartment was in a good location and worked for us. We could walk everywhere and the parking garage was convenient. The loft bunk bed was a little wobbly and my daughter wouldn't sleep on the top bunk because of that. It would of been nice if there were more towels in the bedroom with the king bed and more toilet paper left under the sink. Otherwise, everything was good.

Beware: The pictures represent the space, but not the actual condition and cleanliness.
Space was fine. However, with a very high cleaning fee I would have hoped for a clean residence. Instead, it was filthy. Think college apartment with a college kid clean up now being rented out. The light switches were just disgusting and the dirt on the floors was gross. The location was great and if you are a bunch of folks going to a game and don’t care about cleanliness, the place is fine. Wish VRBO allowed pictures to be uploaded.

College Apartment
Shocked by all the black grout in showers. The supervisor did show up to clean after I called but is going to need maintenance to remove grime. The paint on walls all scuffed up- worn out apartment fit for frat boys. Unfortunately there is no possible refund.

Awesome stay at this rental! Walking distance to a few restaurants and a quick Uber ride downtown. We arrived very late, around 2am, and our door code provided did not work. I called the phone number and they answered quickly, even in the middle of the night, and we were able to get in!

The location of the apartment, and the layout of the rooms themselves was perfect. Even had a small balcony with a couple of comfortable chairs on it. However, it’s definitely a college apartment… Been lived in.

This is an off-campus college property. That being said, the inside has seen some wear and tear. One of the bathroom showers, in particular, felt like it was going to fall through the floor. For the price, there was nothing that stopped us from having a good time.

Poor communication and unit left alot to be desired
The unit was no ready at the scheduled check in time (4:00PM). The unit was ready at 5:30PM, and we were notified at that time that the bathroom sink was clogged. I contacted the property manager at that time, and informed about both issues. We had to wait in the unit for the clogged sink to be fixed mid day on the second day of our stay. I contacted the property management again, and asked for a later check out, to off set the time we had wasted due to the two issues. Their response was that they had to check with the cleaning crew. I had already mentioned this issue in my original text the night before (maybe they should have checked then), and I shared with them the text we received with the cleaning crew indicating both issues. They never had the courtesy to respond to my text. I had to contact our Travel Agent (almost 5 hours after my text to the property manager) and she had to spend her time chasing them down for an answer. While they conceded to a 2 hour later check out, they never responded directly to me. Finally the building is in mediocre condition. One of the elevators did not work, and cleanliness is not their strength. The unit has some noises inside due to HVAC, one closet door was off the rails, the sliding door to the patio did not lock, and there are a number of loud noises from the street early in the morning.

3 nights with family
The apartment is in ok shape. It’s cheaply done but adequate. The real reason for 3 stars is the non-responsiveness. We received the door code on time, but we didn’t receive a code to enter the property (garage) and we didn’t hear back from texts, calls, or messages. Fortunately someone else let us in. We also didn’t receive the Wi-Fi code. The staff finally got back to us with both well into our second day, but my wife had to go to a friend’s house to work the first day because she couldn’t get online.

Very Dirty
Pictures are not a fair representation of this property. The complex, area around it and this unit are VERY dirty...every wall, crack and crevice is dirty or scratched up. If you are a broke college student with low expectations in town to party with friends and just need a roof over your head this rental would be fine...but, if you are over the age of 30 and have ever stayed in a hotel that cost more than $100 a night you will be sorely disappointed.
