About this property

By The San Antonio Riverwalk, The Pearl Brewery Center and Downtown San Antonio

La Villa by The Riverwalk is a historical Sears & Roebuck Company home that was built in the 1950’s. This gorgeous villa has been refurbished to its original condition with antiques of that same era. There were only 70,000 Sears & Roebuck homes built in the North America.

The Villa By The Riverwalk front office/'gift shop offers cold refreshments like sodas, fruit juices, fresh floral arrangements, gifts, jazz memorabilia, Texas souvenirs and vintage antiques from the United States, the United Kingdom and Portugal. If you are here on business and your spouse is looking for something to do that is fun and educational we have a floral school on the premises and can offer personal floral arranging classes while you’re on business.

La Villa by The Riverwalk's Veranda is where you can sip a glass of your favorite wine while waiting for your food order to arrive or while waiting for your LYFT, Uber or Taxicab drivers to pick you up.

La Villa By The Rivrewalk offers you four main rooms. The living room/office area which has a large 72 inch TV/Movie screen and includes a DVD/Blue Ray player and free access to Netflix and Pandora. The bedroom/movie area has a second large 55 inch TV/Movie screen and also includes a DVD/Blue Ray player and free access to Netflix and Pandora. The kitchen area with handsome cherry-wood cabinets and elegant black tile is decorated in wine decor novelties and has a small third TV which also includes a DVD/Blue Ray player and free access to Netflix and Pandora. The refurbished bathroom includes the original bath tub installed in 1950's so you go back in time and have a warm relaxing bubble bath. In order to keep this villa historically accurate no showers were furnished in the stye of Sears home, so if you really need a villa with a shower we may not be able to accommodate you.

Outside in the Villa Courtyard under pavilion #1 you can enjoy an intimate breakfast, lunch or dinner. Later under pavilion #2 you can enjoy a cool or warm dip in our Jacuzzi/Spa and relax alone or with that special someone. The spa area is decorated with colorful tropical fish and craps to give you a festive tropical feel. Or you can surprise that special someone for an anniversary or birthday present and let us set up a private concert where you can invite up to 15 of your close family members and personal friends. Personal concerts cost range depending on the musical artist you want us to obtain and the elaboration of setup required for each concert. We can acquire local, regional and even international Grammy and Emmy Award winning musical artists. We arrange all contracts and riders and we can also arrange for tables, chairs and catering if needed for your private concert.

Please refer to our picture gallery featuring female jazz vocalist Candy DeClue from San Marcos, Texas with backup band saxophonist David Villanueva and his band from San Antonio, Texas at our 2015 4th of July concert party.

This area know as the Tobin Hill area is one of San Antonio's main featured destination, living and tourism areas since we are so close to the San Antonio Riverwalk and the Pearl Brewery Center and so many other San Antonio focal points.

I liked that it was close enough to the river walk but yet far enough away that crowds were not a problem.

Amazing property with an exceptional host.
This place is a 4 minute walk to the river walk and plenty of restaurants, bars, shops and sights. Yet you are in a quiet place once back. Great off street parking for 2 cars in a safe area. Anthony the host is simply amazing, going far beyond what any host has ever done. We made a new friend that we will definitely return to see. Anthony toured us around showing us some amazing thing's we wouldn't have even know about. The house is wonderful and equipped with everything you could need. If not there is an extensive list of things Anthony will can provide for you. See photos. The garden is very cool and relaxed with a great sound system and night lights. Hot tub was so much fun and so conveniently placed right up by the kitchen door. The bedroom was amazing for me as its completely dark when you sleep. With the bathroom right off of it. Truly amazing stay and fantastic host. Cant wait to go back.

Comfortable and Cozy
My husband and I enjoyed the location of the property very much. The place was in a great spot central to many sites and restaurants. We walked from the place to The Pearl several times. We also walked along the Riverwalk all the way from downtown (by the Alamo) back to the property. It was a long leisurely stroll with beautiful scenery all around, which made the walk very enjoyable. Using Uber helped us get around to other locations that were too far to walk. The road (Euclid) is currently under construction so we heard the trucks moving dirt early in the morning and could feel the ground moving from them, too (the next door neighbor's dog didn't seem to like the noise either). We opted to walk down the street to get picked up by Uber drivers due to the construction. Food delivery was tricky, too. Anthony was helpful and he gave us our privacy. We had a slight issue heating up the hot tub on our last night there but eventually got that resolved. Not having a shower took some getting used to, but after 5 days we got the hang of taking baths. We enjoyed having access to Netflix and the large TV's. Although we didn't cook at the place, it was nice having a full-sized fridge and access to a stove/oven if needed. There were plenty of linens and towels and two window A/C units that kept the place at a very comfortable temperature. We will definitely be back to San Antonio!

PROPERTY WAS WELL MAINTAINED AND ATTRACTIVE.MR. TOBIAS WAS EXTREMELY CONSIDERATE AND HELPFUL
UNFORTUNATELY, OUR VISIT WAS CUT SHORT DUE TO THE CONSTUCTION ON THE STREETS AROUND THE PROPERTY THAT MADE ACCESS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. IN ADDITION THE WEATHER WAS VERY WET WHICH COMPOUNDED THE ROADWAY PROBLEMS. MY WIFE AND I ARE IN OUR MID SEVENTIES AND I THINK THIS PROPERTY IS MORE SUITED FOR YOUINGER RENTERS.MR. TOBIAS COULDN'T HAVE BEEN NICER AND DEALT WITH THE SITUATION PROFESSIONALLY AND WITH GREAT UNDERSTANDING.

About the host

Hosted by Anthony C. Tobias M.L.T., T.M.F., R.M.C.

Host profile image
I was born, bread and raised in San Antonio, Texas. My background was originally in the medical profession as a medical laboratory technician working for one of the largest medical firms in the United States for just under 10 years.
I later went on to open Anthony's Floral Designs & Gifts and three years later I opened and taught at Anthony's School of Floral Designs of Texas at San Antonio. I own the San Antonio Summer Art & Jazz Festival L.L.C. and in 2015 I was hired as the Managing Director to coordinate and operate the Leon Valley Fall Art & Jazz Festival for the City of Leon Valley. At the age 24 I was a published author of the book Floral Designs, The Art of Designing with Flowers.
Today I have my own column in StreetTalk Magazine under The SA Jazz Scene and I manage and oversee a great nonprofit that gives back to so many and so proud to be able to do so. In my life I have won many awards in the arts, in business and for community service to San Antonio. I feel that God has blessed me in so many ways and it is through him that I have been able to accomplish so much in life and able give back to others in return.
