Wonderful place and location

Nice and new, comfortable space. Many amenitites included and walkable to many shops and restaurants. The river is a bit of a walk down a long path, but worth the effort.

Our retreat at the Casitas

Talk about the perfect location!!! We enjoyed Gruene to its fullest and our stay at the Casita was wonderful having the river property all to ourselves! The Casita is darling and the couple that answered our questions were super helpful. I have told my friends that the casitas are the place to stay!

Great location

Was in town for a show at Gruene hall so wanted something walking distance from the venue. Easy 5 minute walk. There was a good little bar across the street we enjoyed as well. Couldn’t find the light for the shower or it was burned out but other than that the casita was great!Did not get my check in email but a quick call to the owner solved that issue. Responsive and quick.

Quick Stay

We had a lovely stay at the Casita in New Braunfels. Reservations with Vrbo was easy. The host was amazinly responsive, attentive and accommodating. The property was beautiful and the private walk way to the river was a huge plus. My family will definitely come back. Thank you for the hospitality.

We absolutely loved our stay at the fiesta casita!! The private lake access is PERFECTION. Well worth it. Hosts were communicative and helpful. We love Gruene and everything downtown was in walking distance. Only comment is the king bed isnt really a king bed, its 2 twin beds pushed together which was a little awkward for my husband and I, but cant wait to go back!!! We actually messaged our friends already to pick a week and hopefully rent all the casitas!!!

Never happened

We booked this trip months ago and we’re so excited. Unfortunately the day of check in we were completely ghosted by the host and never received any check in information!! They would not respond to Vrbo either. And we drove 4 hours to celebrate our anniversary. Vrbo said since they were unresponsive they would put us in a hotel for the night and we could find other accommodations the next day. Needless to say so last minute nothing comparable was available not to mention we were already out of pocket 1250 for the place we booked so we drove 4 hours back. The manager did call me back several hours later and told me the reason this happened to us was not due to some horrible accident or situation bur because the phone had been dead and they were looking for a charger. I FO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PROPERTY!! They ruined our vacation.
