After booking you'll be provided a link where you can purchase upgrades to your booking such as early check-in and late check-out, additional cleanings, and more that will make your Austin experience even better!

We don't charge a security deposit! Where many hosts charge over $500, and where you as the guest risk them not returning your deposit – Austin Vacay remains guest-centric by charging a one-time, non-refundable fee (already included in your booking price) which provides up to $200 of coverage towards unintentional rental property damages (subject to plan terms and conditions). This means a lower cost to book, and because accidents happen, protection against costly charges. Plan terms and conditions provided by request after booking.

Austin Vacay is proud to be able to service Austinites and travelers during these uncertain times. We have taken extra precautions to care for our guests and employees by introducing zero contact entry, enhanced cleaning protocols, and strict covering requirements for employees. We encourage our guests to review Texas and Austin’s travel guidelines and restrictions before making a reservation. We must work together to ensure a safe environment for everyone that enters our properties.

Located in the upscale neighborhood of West Austin, this area is characterized by its elegant homes, tree-lined streets, and well-maintained parks. Known for its serene and sophisticated living environment, the locale offers attractions such as local art galleries, high-end boutiques, and gourmet dining establishments that reflect the affluence and refined taste of the community. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the close proximity to Lady Bird Lake and other recreational areas, offering opportunities for hiking, biking, and watersports. With a harmonious blend of luxury and natural beauty, this part of Austin provides a tranquil yet vibrant lifestyle, making it a sought-after destination for those seeking both relaxation and urban excitement.

Scooters (Lime & Bird) as well as Lyft and Uber are the best ways to get around Austin, especially this close to everything. However, there are also a lot of public transportation options in this area (see CapMetro's website).

This is a garage apartment, the backhouse. Like many other houses in this neighborhood and on this street, there are multiple homes like this where families permanently reside. There is someone living in the home in front that has sole access to the backyard. Please be respectful of their living space and any pets out there. Be sure to close the gate with every entry and exit.

Cockroaches and unbearable heat
Hi, When we showed up there were 3 cockroaches in the house that we could see. I had to kill one to get it out of the house. Then, after several hours with the A/C on, it would not cool down to a comfortable temperature. Then, the Roku stopped work. We left and got a hotel after being inside of the house for less than 30 minutes. After all this pain, Ames decided to only give a partial refund. Pretty much a nightmare.

Great location to stay at in Austin!
My friends and I really enjoyed our stay at Shelley! We were close to the areas we wanted to explore and were very close to a grocery store that helped us stock up the place.

Stay in Austin Sept 2019
Shelley was great! Camille was very responsive and helpful for whatever we needed. Shelley is a bit of a walk from the centre of Austin but between ride shares and e-scooters, it was no problem.
