Swim spa/8 BR/NRG Stadium/Sleeps 22/Gated
My group of 6 stayed in this awesome location for 5 days for a local Cigar Festival. We loved the place. It perfectly served our needs, location was ideal, but what put it over the top was the amazing backyard. From the jacuzzi to the pristine sitting area with outside furniture and gas tabletop firepit...Great job. Lots of space and amenities. WE ALL LOVED IT. We plan to stay here again next year. 5 Stars!

HTX Hideaway Houston Rodeo Ready Pool / Big Yard
We had the pleasure of staying at Carolina and Rodney's house. We had a wonderful week, and our kids absolutely loved the house and backyard, which were filled with games, swimming options, and entertainment. The hosts were incredibly responsive, and I would highly recommend staying at their place when in Houston. The house truly felt like a home away from home. Thank you both for the wonderful time we had there!

Absolutely beautiful home in a fantastic location! Raegan was an exceptional host—friendly, responsive, and communicative from start to finish. The space was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully arranged, making for an incredibly comfortable stay. Highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a seamless and relaxing experience.

Charming Bungalow - Newly Renovated
Love the place, and the neighborhood, but the batteries to the front room tv remote died, couldn’t find no replacement, I couldn’t sleep with the blankets, because the fabric on the blankets make my nose clogged up, so I had a hard time trying to sleep, also, it was really chilling, and couldn’t change the temperature to make it warmer, but those are small little gripes, other than that, I love the house, it was really beautiful, love the color scheme and the flower theme, 9.6/10

Me and my friend have shared this Airbnb for an convention and we all loved the space and location even though there was construction throughout the area and the driveway was very steep, and had an issue with exactly how many guest have come in the place but we had discussed it and resolved the issue, I appreciate them and the place would recommend to anyone

Luxury New Galleria Rooftop Uptown Amazing View
I had a wonderful experience staying at Chiara’s place. The house was amazing — beautifully decorated, very clean, and had everything I needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. You can tell a lot of thought was put into creating a welcoming space. What really made the stay even better was how communicative and responsive the host was. She answered all my questions quickly and made the entire process smooth from start to finish. Overall, it was a fantastic stay. I’d absolutely come back and highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a great place with a top-notch host!

The Glass Haus•Modern Luxury• River Oaks •Elevator
I felt like royalty staying in this home. The host has thought of everything. The bedrooms were so comfortable, black out shades, and high end linens. The bathrooms were spa like! The kitchen had everything you could need. And our host, Ann, was so responsive and lovely, answering all of our questions and sending over batteries when that pesky smoke detector needed changing. We will absolutely make this our home each time we come to Houston for conferences!

Home Away From Home| NRG| Airport | Medical Center
We absolutely loved our stay! There is not one thing we did without, and Collins checked in frequently to make sure we were pleased. The home is even more beautiful than the photos show, it was spotless and perfect for our weekend getaway. The location was minutes from everything we wanted to to do. We will definitely stay again if we come back to Houston, and will recommend this property without hesitation. Thank you, Collins!

Brand New Houston Designer House
The pictures do not honestly show how beautiful the home is! It’s absolutely gorgeous. Especially some small updates that appear to have been done since the original listing. We aren’t content creators, we were in Houston for DreamCon, so honestly this space was wasted on us, and I say that in the best way possible. If you are creating content, this home is what you need. She even has the lights/phone stands in every room, with extras! The decor, the vibes, it’s all on point. Definitely willing to stay again should I come back!

Houston Haven 5BR– Farmhouse Getaway w/Pool & Golf
We rented Alex’s home for a ladies’ weekend staycation in Houston. We wanted something centrally located with a pool that could accommodate 5 adult women. The house is immaculate—beautifully decorated with high-end finishes, and it is spotless. It has plenty of parking and is less than 10 minutes from City Centre. Because we didn’t venture far from the house, it was important for us to have a comfortable space to enjoy for the weekend. While the home is gorgeous inside, it is not fully stocked with kitchen appliances or utensils. Fortunately, I was able to make a stop at my home for the items we needed (corkscrew, baking pans, etc). Additionally, if you are someone who prefers a softer bed, you may want to bring extra blankets or sleeping pad to top the bed with as the mattresses are all very firm. We had a wonderful stay at Alex’s home and a perfect weekend “away.”

The Landing Pad: Hot Tub, Fire Pit, BBQ , Arcade
Bryan was an exceptional host from pre-check in to check-out. He left clear instructions on how to access the home and was very responsive to our questions and concerns during our stay. Using GPS to locate the home was a little tricky at first but after the first 2 tries it was super easy to find. The home was very spotless, spacious, and accommodating for groups of 6-8. His home is the definition of “home away from home”; from the comfortable beds, clean towels and linens, various kitchen appliances, washer and dryer, and the hot tub, everything you need for a relaxing getaway or business trip is right here!

Urban oasis in vibrant Montrose
Peter was a phenomenal host . Before we arrived he sent clear & precise directions of how to enter into the house. He also shared his number just in case of any emergency that may arise. The pictures , the comfort of the home , exceeded my expectations. 10/10 for the hospitality . Thank you again Peter we will be back !

Heated Pool + Mini-Golf + Arcade + Corn Hole + BBQ
This Airbnb was absolutely amazing! I couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate my birthday, especially on such short notice. The game room and pool were incredible — definitely the highlights of the stay. Overall, a 10 out of 10 experience. I would absolutely book with Robert again!
