Southern hospitality at its finest

I couldn't recommend BellaVida any higher. My wife and I travelled from NY to watch the F1 racing at COTA and had initially planned to stay in Austin. I'm so pleased we didn't. Wimberley is a small quaint town with a range of tourist shops and restaurants (the mahi tacos at Chill's are great!). Its around 45 drive to Austin. You need a car in Texas so why not stay somewhere a little more authentic than the city. BellaVida puts the treat in retreat. This large (its Texas, of course its big) well kept ranch could warrant a 5* review alone. But, the real USP's here are Belinda and Steve. As soon as we arrived we were welcomed like old friends rather than paying guests. We stayed in the Magnolia and Denton rooms. The Magnolia is the premium economy of rooms, exceptionally clean and comfortable. However, the Denton suite is the full VIP private jet experience. It has so much space with a large bed and ensuite complete with a bath/shower. You could quite happily snooze your alarm and relax in here all day were it not for breakfast. Oh my days, breakfast is amazing! We stayed for 4 mornings and breakfast was first class each day. Breakfast was shared with other guests as Steve plays maitre d' alongside his hens and their little sausage dog. Meanwhile Belinda works her magic in the kitchen. I only wish I'd taken more pictures. If you're still reading this review please STOP. Do yourself a favour and just book a trip to BellaVida already! You won't be disappointed.

Stay at Bella Vida Bed and Breakfast Retreat

Enjoyed our weekend trip to Bella Vida Bed and Breakfast. Run by a friendly couple, the retreat is a laid back calm place with roosters running around,a pet dachshund... It is relaxing and calm, there is a game room with TV etc,colas and ice cream you can help yourself to... We loved the quaint and quiet place... Only thing I was upset about was that our room was a Jack and Jill room with a shared bathroom which was not mentioned when we booked ourselves. During Covid times this was a worrisome point. So do double check before you book Suite Sarah or Suite Magnolia. The other rooms are fine.

My wife and I recently stayed at the Bella Vida for our 17th wedding anniversary. Even before our trip, the communication with Belinda was excellent. She went out of her way to make sure that everything was in order before we arrived including a special request I had made for my wife. Once we arrived, we were warmly greeted and given a tour of the property and all the amenities. Our room was wonderful, just as described and we immediately felt right at home. Each morning we enjoyed a delicious home cooked breakfast served on an antique farm table. Steve, Belinda's husband was so helpful and we enjoyed talking with him throughout the week. He and Belinda both loved to share local information, restaurant recommendations and places to visit in the area. We loved floating in the Blue Hole and the Blanco River. Their recommendation for our anniversary dinner at Trattoria Lisina was excellent!!! We honestly didn't want to come home and extended our stay an extra day. It is one of the most peaceful places we have ever been for our anniversary. We truly left feeling like we had made two new friends that we would hopefully see again for another special occasion.
