Quality Family Time in Downtown San Antonio

Our family met in San Antonio for a weekend together to see Nate Bargatze at the Majestic Theater and spend some quality time together. The home was perfect for us, and the Hot Tub was a great way to relax at the end of the day! Thanks so much to the host for the amenities you left for us, it was a great weekend!!

Our first trip to Texas! The house was very nice, better than the pictures! Spacious rooms, bathrooms and living space! We enjoyed relaxing on the porch and walked around the neighborhood in the morning. It’s centrally located, quick access to the River Walk and Downtown. The owners were great, extremely helpful with recommending restaurants, and were extremely kind!

Fantastic house, great location!

My group of friends visits a different city every year for board games and dining, and this house was a perfect location for us. The house was clean, well stocked, and the bedrooms had good separation from each other, which is nice for a group of adults who wake up at different times. The upstairs bedroom is loft style without aa door on the staircase, but the hosts thoughtfully supplied a white noise machine. I would still recommend that if you have one couple who sleeps late, they pick a different bedroom. Jerry responded quickly to questions and was helpful. We enjoyed the hot tub, and the location was fantastic with many restaurants, parks, and coffee shops nearby. Would happily stay here again!

Home away from home in San Antonio!

My wife and I travelled to San Antonio with our 3 children and were delighted with our stay at Casa Azul. The house and amenities were even better than advertised. You cannot beat this location! Literally around the corner from all things downtown! Check-in was a breeze and our stay was truly a home away from home. If you find yourself in San Antonio, check out this gem. We will book here or with another property by this host for all our return visits to San Antonio.

Amazing Stay!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay here, it was perfect for 5 adults and way more space than we needed. We were greeted with local chips and salsa and coffee which was perfect since we didn't plan on shopping for groceries with such a short stay. We walked everywhere and the location was perfect. They house was even decorated for fiesta! We only stayed a couple days so didn't get a chance to use the hot tub by the backyard was very cute. Would definitely recommend this place :)

The property was very nice, as were t he hosts. The biggest issue was the construction going on late at night next door. We called the police to complain but it didn't seem to do any good. Everything was clean and tidy in the house. We could have used some more towels though. And upon arrival, the back door was unlocked as were a couple of windows. Maybe this was the cleaning crew?
