Walkable to many of Austin's top attractions, festivals, restaurants, and bars. The retreat consists of two huge side-by-side homes with downtown views and features 13 beds (9 private kings), 7 baths, 2 Gyms, 2 Game rooms, gas fire pit, 2 fireplaces, 12 indoor and outdoor living areas and incredible downtown views.

You're Five-Star Vacation home with a pool aways!

The combination of privacy and convenience of this 13 bed compound is unmatched in the Austin area and makes a perfect home base for friends, families, Bridal parties, and corporate groups who want the Ultimate Austin Experience.

The Retreat has two large and well appointed kitchens than will entertain your entire 24 person crew comfortably.

Each outdoor area has commercial gas grills, large dining table, couches, captain chairs and ceiling fans. The houses are surrounded by huge Heritage Oaks that keep the property cooler in the summer months, but also allow for incredible skyline views.

The Primary bedrooms are the real show stoppers and both have the feeling of living on Central Park with views of downtown within a private canopy of Heritage Oaks. When you wake in the morning and open the blackout curtains to private balconies with unobstructed views of dazzling Downtown and West Austin. Each room have luxurious ensuite bathrooms with bidets, walk-in shower, and soaking tub with private views of downtown through large windows.

The Retreat has a total of 9 KING sized beds in private bedrooms with 13 total beds that offer comforts of home in a luxury hotel setting. Shutters and blackout blinds keep the rooms dark and cool in the summer, but once you open them you have beautiful natural light that invades the space.

Each home has large family game rooms with amenities that include billiards table, ping pong, arcade, Sonos, TV, couch and chairs, a turntable with an abundance of records.

Each Home has a Gym and includes items such as Peloton, elliptical, weights, punching bag, yoga mats and resistance bands.

Guests have access to the entirety of both side-by-side homes that include, front/backyard, private pools and hot tubs. The spa is free to heat, but there is a $100 per day charge to heat each pool.

The house (both of them) were absolutely beautiful and clean. The kitchens were well stocked, the pool was nice, and they’re within walking distance to all that was needed. Rachel was proactive in her communication and extremely responsive. This was the perfect space for the company retreat we were hosting. Thank you!

Great location with a cool view of downtown Austin and great access to running trails around the Lake. Convenience store, bars and restaurants nearby for quick easy calls on food and Bev. We were new to town and Rachel hooked us up with local transportation and ideas for stuff to do and check out. All that coupled with a nice quiet residential neighborhood. The listing is split over two houses, both with excellent kitchens, dining areas and pools. Outstanding for a pair of families or related generations who want to spend time together, but not be on top of each other 100% of the time.

Fairmont Austin

I need to clarify that Fairmont Austin is a hotel with multiple dining venues rather than a single restaurant. However, if you're looking for a description of their signature dining experience, here's one focused on their acclaimed restaurant: Garrison, Fairmont Austin's award-winning signature restaurant, unites global flavors with local Texas ingredients, expertly crafted over a post oak live fire for a uniquely smoked dining experience. Paired with the hotel's rooftop bar offering craft cocktails and skyline views, it delivers an unforgettable culinary journey in the heart of downtown Austin.
