We had a wonderful stay! The owner was extremely responsive and made sure our stay was as comfortable as possible from start to finish. The house itself is beautiful inside, very clean, and had everything we needed.The location was perfect for our trip — only about 10 minutes from The Domain and 15 minutes from the UT campus. We were visiting for graduation, so it was right in the middle of everything we wanted to do, including Barton Springs and other Austin attractions.We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!

Family spring break stay with dog

Great little property with a fenced in yard for our dog. We really enjoyed the ping pong table and how close it was to a local park with tennis courts and trails (just one crosswalk away). Outdoor patio with shade was really nice this time of year.

The host was outstanding. We left some items at the house, and she promptly mailed them back to us. Very accommodating and easy to work with. The inside of the house is beautiful and fully updated. The outside area is a little run down but the weather didn’t allow us to use the outside anyway. Overall, a great location. Highly recommend.

Communication with host Karina was absolutely outstanding, responses most of the time within minutes. When we had a problem, it was quickly resolved. Would recommend to anyone. It was especially good for us, as were staying for 5 weeks while we were waiting on our new home to close. Location is close to everything, domain, far west, 10 mintes to downtown etc.

Wonderful and clean property!

This property was exactly what we needed - it was very clean, had a stocked kitchen, desks with monitors to work from home, and plenty of room. The beds were comfortable and the backyard was private and big enough for our small dog. There is also lots of walking paths nearby. The listing mentions trains that come by - they were not disruptive at all, in my opinion. Would highly recommend this property!

My work associates and I had the luxury of staying in this newly renovated house in ATX. The neighborhood was beautiful and the location was great - close driving distance to coffee, food spots, etc. The house had new appliances, comfortable beds and a really cool modern design. Was perfect for our needs. Karina was very responsive and helpful whenever I had any questions. Definitely recommend this spot for those looking in ATX.

Perfect for a little getaway with the boys! Tons of ubers were close by and the train wasn’t even that loud and it didn’t even come by often so that wasn’t even an issue.

A very comfortable house to stay in

My husband, my mom and dad & I drove from Kansas City, Missouri to Austin in mid-May 2024 for our son's graduation from UT-Austin School of Pharmacy. We wanted to be in a house as opposed to a hotel. This house was a wonderful place to stay! It has a beautiful, open floor plan and white walls everywhere which makes it seem bigger. The owners were extremely accommodating & responded to our messages promptly. The house is in a quiet neighborhood although there is a train nearby that travels through a few times during the night but it doesn't blow its horn. The owners provided everything a short-term renter might need or want: Keurig coffee machine & K-cups, tea bags, a clear electric pot to heat up water, plates, bowls, sugar, flour, spices, plastic wrap/aluminum foil, cooking pans & utensils, baking pans...I know I'm forgetting some things but you get the picture. Obviously, a refrigerator, stovetop/oven & microwave are in the kitchen. A grocery store isn't far from the house. One of the coolest features is a heated floor in the master bathroom! It's a very home-y place to stay & I highly recommend it if you'll be in Austin.

About the host

Hosted by Karina

Host profile image
We are Karina & Levi, forever business partners & a madly in love husband and wife duo! We met at UC Berkeley when we were just kids, graduated together, worked in the same Amazon office, quit our corporate jobs and became full time real estate investors together! As you can tell, we do everything together, and we like a good challenge. As we travel through our real estate journey, we identify incredibly distressed properties and turn them into beautiful spaces like the Upscale Getaway we are so excited to host you! We love our city, and we work tediously to contribute new life to Austin's rich heritage. Aside from real estate, we love playing volleyball, spending time reading at Barton Springs, and checking out new bars in Austin.
