I had never been to Austin and I have always wanted to visit, my husband and I decided to take a quick trip down and we are so glad we did!

Our stay in Austin couldn't have been better. Desirae, her mother, Cynthia, and their 4 sweet whippets were the most welcoming hosts imaginable. Desirae was quick to communicate and easy to make arrangements with. Upon our delayed arrival late on a Saturday night, Desirae showed us around the place and kindly welcomed us with a thoughtfully stocked fridge full of locally sourced snacks, drinks and coffee for the morning. We immediately felt right at home.

The house is absolutely stunning and flawlessly designed inside and out. Waking up every morning to the sounds of chirping birds and the sun shining through the heritage Live Oak trees through the floor to ceiling windows was incredible. We enjoyed our daily morning coffees on the roof deck, taking in the view of downtown and the beautiful backyard. It wasn't quite warm enough to enjoy the pool but I have a feeling we'll be back once the weather warms up. We were so grateful for the two bicycles that Desirae provided, we didn't even need a rental car. We were able to ride all around Austin by bike, it was an ideal way to experience this vibrant city.

The house is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood but close enough walk to the action on South 1st Street and South Congress. Downtown is an easy bike ride away, just across Town Lake/Colorado River. The amenities Desirae provides are endless, she has honestly thought of everything. The internet, sound system, snacks, bikes and toiletries were spot on. We were so comfortable here that we felt torn between exploring Austin or just staying in and enjoying this pristine space.

I highly recommend Desirae's place to anyone who is looking for modern luxury in a relaxed yet stunning environment. Desire's hospitality is above and beyond, true Texas congeniality at it's finest. Book this place, you will be so glad you did.
