Great Austin Property!

What a great experience! House feels very homey, like you're staying at your favorite rich Aunt's house! Hah! Had a great time. Patrick, the house manager, was very accommodating in assisting with anything we needed during our stay. Hot tub gets very hot, so just keep an eye on that! Can't wait for our next family reunion here next year! :)

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property and location is outstanding. Only thing I recommend is checking the weather before you go. The Texas ice storm kinda ruined our vacation even though we had no power our housing assistant was always on call and took care of us very well to make sure we were okay in the unexpected situation we ended up in.

Beautiful home

Pros: the home is beautiful and has room for all your needs. The pool and sports court were great for the kids. Luke the manager was very responsive and did a great job trying to resolve issues we had during our trip. Cons: there are a lot of rules, additional fees that for me someone who has used VRBO for many years were beyond unnecessary to try and charge when you are paying the price that they charged. Unfortunately during our stay the yard people were cutting for over an hour one morning keeping everyone out of the backyard. Then immediately after the pool people came and did the cleaning but then had to add chemicals causing us a delay in using the pool for one of our days there. The rooms were not cooling at night so we had to get an AC guy out there.

Family gathering

Excellent accommodations and amenities. The material negatives were 1) the large number of rules and penalties fees felt a bit worrisome. 2) the fact that the owner left a car in the garage and thus required the garage to be off limits making it inconvenient to unpack and repack carrying luggage and groceries the long way out the front door to the cars. 3) considering the hefty rental price, felt a bit nickeled and dimed by the fees for heating the pool. 4) No life jackets and paddles for the kayaks when we arrived and did not receive them until afternoon of next day.

Beautiful Home - Management lacks attention to detail when booki

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful time at Above Austin Elite celebrating several 50th birthdays. The home is beautiful and spacious, and exactly what we wanted. Our only issue was in using Above to book additional services (chef dinner, boat rental, margarita bar). The quotes were inconsistent, erroneous, or not complete so much so that we had to spend a good amount of time resolving confusion. The person who booked our services made multiple errors in quotes to us, and was not organized in how information was shared. While we appreciated the value add in someone else making the bookings, we were left to wonder how much they are overcharging us in doing such work. More transparency needed in supplemental services that are booked.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Every morning the views from the river the backyard leads to was very picturesque. We spent most of our time back there and I absolutely loved the amount of space there was to spread out. Inside the house, there were enough rooms for all my guests and spaces for us to come together that never felt cramp. The home theater was also a favorite place to be. The house manager stopping by to check-in on us was nice and he was very friendly. He was in and out before you even noticed he was there.The only reason that I could not give this property a perfect 5 star rating is because the car limit was very inconvenient. We were told that we could park at the lot at the hiking trail nearby, but that walk back was about 15-20 minutes. We were back and forth between the house and other locations, so after the first few trips, it got pretty frustrating having to figure out whose car got to stay parked in the driveway and who had to move their car. Overall, we were comfortable and enjoyed our stay.

Above Austin Elite Lake Austin is Amazing!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Above made the rental so easy! This is our first rental not through a real estate agent. They are great with communicating, reputable, and the house is even better than represented, which seemed impossible. I was concerned about the disclaimer but it is not because you are getting a different quality l, it is in case a piece of furniture changed! The house has incredible views and is ideal especially for an active family who likes to spend time together! We will be back!

30th Birthday Party success!

We booked Austin for my wife’s 30th Birthday celebration and the house fit our every need! The house had plenty of room for all 16 guests, lots of outdoor and indoor games and a great pool to lounge in. The only bummer was that the outdoor tv didn’t work, but everything else went smoothly.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Elite Property on lake Austin. We had plenty of room for all of our family members that were visiting from various locations and at different times of the wee. The pool and hot tub were a huge hit as use of the paddle boards and boat dock for boat rental pick ups. The yard is huge, volley ball court, basketball court, and game room kept teenagers engaged. Very nice house!! Our concierge, Conor and house manager, Evan, were so much help and very courteous and professional and we loved working with them.

Requested to home owner to turn it down to 70 degrees at night but was denied for that I will never rent this home. Overall beautiful home somewhat clean except for spiders and spider webs inside and out throughout the home.
