We love helping guests feel cared for, whether they’re here to explore Waco, visit loved ones, or just get away for a bit. If you need anything during your stay, we’re nearby and happy to help.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this historic district the moment we laid eyes on it. It’s peaceful and full of charm, with tree-lined streets and friendly neighbors. The neighborhood is quiet yet close to everything—just minutes from Baylor, Magnolia, and the best of Waco’s downtown scene. It offers the perfect mix of convenience and character, and we knew it was the right spot for a home that tells a story.

What makes this property unique

The Santos House is a lovingly restored historic gem—steeped in character but updated for modern comfort. From the original architectural details to the warm, eclectic design touches throughout, every corner of this home has heart. It’s not just a place to stay—it’s an experience. Whether you’re sipping coffee on the porch, reading under the high ceilings, or just soaking in the quiet vibe, the Santos House offers a one-of-a-kind stay that blends heritage with hospitality.
