“Quaint hotel with a view”

4 of 5 stars
Louisiana
Sep 3, 2008

This hotel was recommended by a family member who lives close by. The hotel is very quaint, overlooking Lake Travis. We were in building three, which I don't recommend. I believe the other two buildings have a better view of the lake.

Some repairs are needed to the balcony of the room we stayed in. Other than that, the room was in great shape, with comfortable beds.

Service was average, with friendly smiles.

“Vintage Villas - Very nice for your $$$”

Vintage Villas

Aug 5, 2007

Listed as one of the & Most Romantic Getaways on Lake Travis...
Vintage Villas (VV) is typically for weddings/occasions or getaways. The property itself upon arriving is eye appealing. All rooms have a lakeview, but in the Central Texas building your view for the sunset can be limited depending on the room you get. The balconies on some rooms are shared. A privacy wall be be better but its not a deal breaker. Each room is decorated differently. The beds are extremely comfortable. The A/C ws not on when we arrived and it took a good 1 1/2 hour for the rom to cool down. The courtyard has a nice fountain and benches/chairs for you to sit. The fountain however is not lighted. This would be a nice feature and add to the property.

Sign up for the Relax Awards feature that they offer.

would Igo back again - yes.

“Service was awesome!!”

1/6 found this review helpful

VV is an awesome place to stay. IT is the quintisential Hill Country Hotel. Beautiful views, and the service Monkeys are awesome. Yes I said service monkeys. You see VV has a new owner, and he decided to make the place more entertaining by adding the cute little monkeys. And guess what, they ride unicycles. Watching those little scamps trying to get up the stairs on the unicycle while holding large trays of premium high end food (Kobi beef, lobster and a rareity.....poached monkey) is soooooooo cute. It is well worth the ocassional spill, and when a monkey slips and kills himself with the tray - then more fresh poached monkey....yum! Also the bed linens are to die for. I took a set home for me...shhhhh!

“Nice hotel for weddings”

Vintage Villas

Save Review
3 of 5 stars
Dallas, Texas
May 13, 2007

We stayed here for one night for a wedding. It is a very scenic hotel and excellent location for a wedding. The room we stayed in was very large with an excellent balcony overlooking Lake Travis. Some of the rooms do not have balconies. The service at the hotel was not spectacular, but adequate. The hotel is also a bit of a drive to get to. It's about 20 miles from I-35. Other than that it was a decent stay.

“Fantastic”

Vintage Villas

Jan 9, 2007
1/1 found this review helpful

I stayed here over the New Years holiday and loved it. The room was comfortable, the bed was fantastic and the bathroom was very nice. Loved the big tub with room for two and whirlpool. Very private, quite and the operators were very helpful. We hung the Do not disturb sign and was not bothered at all for three days. The area is super nice with a many restaurants and shopping near buy. Loved the veiw. I plan to come again. I was a bit worried after reading the negative reviews posted here but found none of the comments applied to my trip. We are simple travelers and do not want or need pampering. We only require quite and privacy in a well appointed room and that is what we got. There is no room service, we did not visit the breakfast- didn't get up that early ;). There was an ice maker in the fridge that did not work, no dvd player but there was a VHS. Did not really watch TV.
