Welcome to Via Luxury Rentals thoughtfully curated luxury homes with hospitality in our DNA. We specialize in transforming exceptional homes into unforgettable experiences. Every property we manage is cared for as if it were our own, designed to inspire guests & create lasting memories. We love Austin and encourage you to check our list of favorite restaurants, bars & sites while you’re here! Let us know how we can help make your stay amazing.

Willow-Spence, our iconic downtown retreat in the storied Willow-Spence Historic District of East Austin – a multimillion-dollar restoration of a Victorian estate, reimagined as a true boutique hotel experience unlike anything else in the city. With 6 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, and a private detached guest unit, Willow-Spence hosts up to 12 guests in quiet, considered luxury, just two blocks from East 6th Street and minutes from downtown. It’s the kind of home built for milestone celebrations, corporate retreats, multi-generational getaways, and the sort of weekend with friends people remember for years.

Turn-of-the-century craftsmanship meets bold modern design throughout. Every bedroom is fully en-suite, every bed dressed in hotel-grade linens atop custom $8,000 mattresses, and the primary suite features heated bathroom floors, a deep soaking tub, and a walk-in shower, the kind of detail you feel without needing to be told. A moody Moroccan-inspired suite and penthouse-style rooms with working fireplaces give every floor its own personality, while a true chef’s kitchen – anchored by a Miele espresso machine and chef-grade range, invites cooking and entertaining at a level most rentals simply can’t touch.

Outside is where Willow-Spence fully tips into resort territory. A private lap pool, fire lounge, outdoor kitchen, multiple fire pits, sun loungers, and an al fresco dining area surround a fully fenced lawn made for lawn games, morning yoga, or cocktails under the string lights. Plush bathrobes wait in every closet. Piccolo, our signature Piaggio, is parked and ready for photos and a slow ride through the neighborhood. Two blocks to East 6th, a short walk to the White Horse, a ten-minute bike to the Capitol — the best of Austin is at your doorstep, and a stay you’ll want to relive is waiting the moment you step inside.

Per the city of Austin short term rental ordinance the following rules apply to every vacation rental within city limits, with no exceptions: 1) Outdoor spaces are not available for use from 10 PM to 7 AM, 2) Parties and events are not permitted, 3) Occupancy limit of 8 unrelated adults.

Cancel within 24 hours of booking free of penalty!

This Airbnb is just perfection! Hosts are not only super friendly & attentive, but they have thought of anything you might need during your stay, complimentary toiletries, plenty of towels and it's immaculately clean. It's a 10 star, best Airbnb I've ever rented. Kyle is a great host!

My girlfriends and I really enjoyed staying here for a long weekend vacation. The owner's attention to detail was appreciated and made this home stand out. He thought of everything from a welcome bottle of wine and a hand written note, air fresheners, shampoo/conditioner & plenty of towels. Lastly, Kyle is responsive to messages and was able to answer questions within 15-20 min. Kyle went out of his way to ensure we were comfortable and had a great weekend!
