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.

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.

Austin stay cation
Great location for a base to cover Austin. Super accommodating host and very nice. Place was not really updated as advertised. A couple items newer like bathroom sink and smart TV but condition of kitchen was very dated and worn. Sofa and carpet very worn. With some fixes and redo the place would great. Very quiet and comfortable neighborhood.
