Convenient Location!

Our stay at Urban Elegance Retreat was great! You can really tell the hosts spent time on the decor; the home is beautifully designed and feels so inviting. We also truly appreciated the small touches, like having coffee available upon arrival – it was such a welcoming detail after our journey. Best of all, the home was impeccably clean, making for a comfortable and stress-free stay. Highly recommend!

Beautifully remodeled home

This is a beautifully remodeled home in a quiet neighborhood. You will go WOW when you walk into the master bath! Located a few blocks from the Pearl and a block off St Mary’s street. Easily walkable to downtown also. Has everything you could need at the house and is extremely comfortable and spacious. Would definitely stay here again!

Renovated craftsman charm

Beautifully renovated house in quiet historic neighborhood close to the Pearl. Everything was true to listing. About a half hour to the Riverwalk on foot. We rented bikes at Blue Star Bicycle Company on the Riverwalk, and rode to the five missions in the area on a perfectly maintained bike path, it was joyful! The cleaning crew missed the sheets in the master en suite, which is the only thing I can complain about, otherwise the cleanliness rating would have been excellent. All in all a great place to stay if you can’t afford a hotel on the Riverwalk itself, but the Pearl district has so much to offer too, and it’s really close.

What a gem!

This property was an absolutely amazing stay. The neighborhood was not only very safe and quiet, it was very close to all the places we were visiting including the creamery and pearl. Couldn’t get any better. The actual accommodations also surpassed my expectations. It extremely spacious. Plenty of rooms with curtains to keep the rooms dark and comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised by the primary bath and towel warmer. What a nice treat! Would heavily recommend and if we return to San Antonio, this VRBO will be at the top of our list to stay.

BMT Graduation

The home was a great pick for son’s graduation ceremonies at Lackland base. Location worked very nice as home is close to the Pearl district along the river walk so left car behind and got in some steps. About 25 minute drive to the base, 15 minutes to downtown and short drive to airport. Owner has supplied clean and spacious home with everything we needed for our stay there for us including kitchen supplies, games, toiletries, clothes detergent. The master bath is gorgeous. Owner was very accommodating and easy to reach if desired. Wife was extremely happy with the home which enabled us all to comfortably celebrate our families special event.

Wonderful stay

We had a wonderful stay at the Urban Elegance Retreat. It is located near the Pearl, which was very nice and also about 20 mins from the Lackland Air Force Base. Communication with Jason was wonderful! He responds immediately and was a great host. The property is renovated and the inside is very nice and updated. The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable and the rooms and bathrooms were very spacious, as was the entire home. My only suggestions would be to replace the shower head in the master bath because the water pressure was very weak and add some hooks in the bathrooms to hang towels. Also, the hand soaps in the bathrooms were not refilled, they were mostly water. Overall, great experience and we definitely enjoyed our stay!

The property is nice and pictures of the inside are accurate and looked as listed. The outside of the house pictures does not match the house. The pictures were old and the outside looked a little creepy. The house is very spacious. There are several doors that lead to the outside. Owner was very available and helped when called.

Tap out your Airman and Enjoy your time together

We booked Urban Elegance Retreat for our son’s AirForce Academy Graduation. The retreat was exactly as described. We wanted to stay together so my son didn’t have to choose who he visited with. 4 adults 3 teens. Very clean and extremely comfortable. We needed somewhere we could all be together but not on top of each other. It was a nice calm place to relax and visit. The separate living rooms were both outfitted with comfortable furniture and provided reasonable privacy and separation. We spent most of our time in doors as the weather was not our friend so it was imperative that it was comfortable and it did not disappoint. Thoughtful details throughout made it ascetic or comfortable. The owner was easy to reach for questions and was accommodating when he/she was able to be with requests. Most everything was addressed in a detailed welcome letter. Electronic access is the only way to go. Makes so all adults have access to come and go. That was great too.

Simple pleasures

Came to San Antonio for a simple pre-holiday family get together. The property looked amazing online and it was. 6 adults comfortably living within walking distance to everything. House was larger than I expected from the outside and beautifully appointed. Everything you need is provided and the magnifying makeup mirror alone had my wife sold on the place. Communication with the Hosts was fast and professional and what you want from a property rental. We cannot recommend the place more and plan on returning.
