Great Mini Vacay at the Cabana!
We had a great mini vacay at the Cabana! Natalie is a gracious host; she is always available via phone or text to answer any questions. The Cabana has all of the comforts of home, and then some. We were welcomed with fresh flowers, a bottle of wine, and ample snacks upon arrival. The grounds are gorgeous, with enormous beautiful oak trees, flowers and greenery in abundance. We had our own private oasis out at the immaculate pool and spa! Also enjoyed hanging out on the covered back patio overlooking the pool. Thanks very much, Natalie!!! We will definitely return to this gem in the quaint and interesting town of Gonzales.

Simply amazing
Though extremely short, our stay was perfect. We signed up for the 2025 Texas Independence Relay and needed a place to stay the night before the start. We were lucky to find this little gem not far away from the heart of the event. Beautiful property, thoughtfully decorated, spacious but cozy, and an incredible outdoor area with hot tub and pool! We got some much needed rest after a long and busy day and the hot tub was just what we needed to have a restful night’s sleep. Host was very attentive and left us some great treats as a welcoming gift. One of my best experiences in booking and renting short-stay properties. Highly recommend and will definitely stay again if we come back to Gonzales next year! Thank you!

Hospitality the size of Texas
The communication was excellent. Natalie responded very promptly and professionally. The space was smartly decorated and very clean…the pool was as clean as I keep my own…excellent! The extra touches were very nice too…fresh cut flowers, bottle of local wine, a box of snacks which pairs nicely…all show the effort the host is making. We also enjoyed the Primo water fill station and the nicely supplied kitchen. We cooked most every meal and were not for want on pots and pans or dishes. Finally, the host obviously lives next door, but we never saw them. We were given all of our privacy without the typical rundown we have often received when the host is on site. We had an absolutely perfect stay and we look forward to visiting Gonzales next year. Thank you!

Beautiful cabana in a lovely historic neighborhood
Wonderful in every way! Fresh and well appointed cabana. Fenced in pool area and well landscaped property. Lighting inside and out was good and we felt safe. The historic homes in the neighborhood and close distance to downtown made for great walking.

Our stay at the Cabana was wonderful! Our kids, ages 12 and 16, really enjoyed the swimming pool. The cabana was clean and welcoming. Nicely located, we saw deer in the back field the day we arrived. 😊 Pool table was so much fun! We had a great time! 😁

Best Get Away
We haven't been able to take a family vacation for about almost two years with our busy work schedules, with that said we decided to finally pull away from our busy life and needed time to recharge before school started for our son. We had the BEST time just the three of us at this beautiful property! When we walked in the owners had this wonderful gift basket so very thoughtful along with fully stocked coffee which we all loved to drink on the porch in the morning and evening time. At night was my favorite for there were thousands of fire-flies everywhere that light up the night. It was the most relaxing and enjoyable time. There is a HEB and Walmart that is down the road from the home and cute little older town with shops to go to. Also about a 30 min. drive to san marcus outlet. which we did venture out to one morning. I would have to say one of my favorite places we stayed at in a very long time which was much needed for our little family. It was very private, and the owners never bothered us and allowed our privacy which was exactly what we wanted! We will def. come back! Wonderful place and wonderful people! Thank you!

Absolutely lovely! The cabana is so charming and provides you with everything needed for a relaxing stay. The attention to detail and thoughtful amenities are the perfect touch. The hosts are friendly and very accommodating. You can tell they take pride and great care of their property and it shows! While the cabana is comfortable and welcoming, the pool and landscaping are perfection. We enjoyed a quiet and tranquil weekend and we can’t wait to come back again!
