It’s near a mix of locally-owned bars, coffee shops, boutiques, museums and art galleries. The neighborhoods getting gentrified. It’s a mix of older homes and one’s getting renovated. Despite some homes in the area being run down, it’s a quaint and quite spot.

Matthew & Sara were super friendly. They were understanding and responsive and made my stay in San Antonio less stressful. I enjoyed their beautiful AirBnB and hope to have similar experiences in future AirBnB stays. I hope to use them again next time I am in San Antionio.

Riverwalk Getaway w/parking

VirginiaRating, 5 starstoday

The unit was as pictured. The floors and hallway were decently loud throughout the night. Elevator in the building and parking garbage were out. Water was turned off for the building. It wasn’t her fault so I won’t dig her for that. I would have just appreciated a fully clean apt. We tired to leave it better then we found it.

Casita Ybanez at Mission Reach

KendraRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

We had such a wonderful stay! The property is beautiful, peaceful and quiet. The house is beautifully and thoughtfully decorated, and was super clean upon arrival. It was the perfect home base for exploring the city, and it was also very comfortable for a lazy day in. Armando was very communicative and so kind. He had cheesecake waiting in the fridge for us and dropped off Mexican pastries for us one morning. This was one of my favorite Airbnb stays to date and I hope we get the chance to stay here again! We brought our bikes with us, and it was an easy ride to Mission San Jose and the park by the river. It was cool to come back to the house afterwards and recognize the images on the walls from the mission! I would recommend this property with no reservations. Thanks for a great stay, Armando!

Lux River Walk Oasis | 1BR |King Bed| Resort Pool

LoganRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Honestly, I don't know where to begin. The apartment became a home away from home. I did not want to leave. It was convenient to everything. I walked the Riverwalk right behind the apartment every single day, strolling both away from town and right into downtown. I also used the gym and loved walking the community during my stay. The neighbors are incredibly quiet as well! I went to all the local attractions. By the end of my stay, I was ready to live there permanently. I have never stayed in a more convenience place! Add all of that to the fact you have a full kitchen with everything you need and a washing machine/dryer and you have a true home. On a personal note, the host is stellar and could teach classes on how to effectively and kindly communicate with guests. I could not have asked for more. If you are a looking for a fantastic place in San Antonio that is worth every single penny you will pay that allows you to easily experience the entire town, your search is over.

A compact kitchen area is visible, featuring a microwave placed on top of a silver refrigerator. A fire extinguisher is mounted on the wall, and a wooden table holds various kitchen items. A framed picture adds a touch of decor above the microwave.

I had a very comfortable stay at Benjamin’s place. The unit was spacious, well kept, and located in a quiet area—perfect for resting after a day of exploring. There’s a direct bus to downtown just a short walk away, which made getting around San Antonio easy without a car. The place is a great value and Benjamin was responsive and helpful throughout.

The Minimalist Escape (DOWNTOWN)

EsmeRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

A slice of luxury! We did not want to leave here! Every detail was thought through for our stay. Huge range of spices also which is so rare in an airbnb! This cosy cabin is just lovely in every way possible. My boyfriend and I had a great time here and Carly was a wonderful person, happy to stop and chat and gave endless recommendations both local and for our day trip! The location is great, out of the city but we walked one day to the Alamo which only took 20 minutes!
