The two bedroom/one bathroom “Kaleido House” is the largest unit in the Zilker Vacations family. It features by far the most original art and colorful decor to go along with the spacious tall ceilings.

The Kaleido House is located just .44 miles to Zilker Park and Barton Springs Pool, the perfect location to enjoy everything that Austin has to offer. There is easy walking access to many of Austin’s famous restaurants as well as the outdoor paradise that is Zilker Park. Take a dip in the 68 degree waters of Barton Springs after enjoying a hike through the Barton Creek Greenbelt or a stroll around Lady Bird Lake. After a day outdoors, you’re only a short way back!

The vaulted beamed knotty pine wood ceilings make the over 1000 square feet seem even bigger. The kitchen is fully equipped to handle cooking big meals, and the Whole Foods world headquarters and Trader Joe's is approx 2 miles away. Several smaller convenience stores are blocks away.

There is a king bed with Temperpedic mattress in the master bedroom and two XL twins in the second bedroom, which can be made up as a king upon request.

Other amenities include: fresh coffee (organic local Ruta Maya) and tea fixings, washer/dryer and detergent, bath and beach towels, and a Britta water filter to keep fresh water in the refrigerator. There is a gas grill on the deck and tools and grate covers in the kitchen.

Higher rates for ACL, SXSW & Formula One with 4 night minimum. Three night minimum during major holidays.
Cleaning fees of $115 applies to all stays under 30 days, $200 for monthly stays.
Pets allowed with $50 - $100 pet fee. Couch covers, gate or crate available upon request.

Managed by Cynthia and Peach Reynolds.

Perfect location! We needed a last-minute place in Austin, and are so glad we were able to book with Cynthia. The place is colorful and comfy, and can't beat the fact that it's only a short walk to Zilker Park. Also appreciate that it's pet-friendly.

Great location with easy access to Barton Springs area, while being secluded enough to be nice and private.

Very cozy and affordable stay in a quaint part of town! Accesibility to downtown Austin and Zilker Park/Barton Springs was a major plus.

Hi Lee,
So glad you enjoyed your stay at The Kaleido House and our location! We wanted to set up our rentals with all the amenities that we want when traveling but haven’t found in most rentals we have stayed in, which is why we put in Tempurpedic mattresses in most.
Now that you have fallen in love with Austin, if you ever decide to move here, we would love to help you find a perfect home through our real estate company, Zilker Properties. Hope to see you back soon!

Love this property and its hosts! The decor was charming and the location was perfect, nestled high up in a beautiful neighborhood in the heart of Austin. We were so impressed by the amenities - including everything from coffee to makeup wipes to toddler appropriate books - and felt this place truly has it all. The hosts are friendly, accommodating, and responsive. We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anybody else looking for a wonderful, authentically Austin experience.

We had a brief but wonderful stay. Excellent and thorough communication from Cynthia. Light switches were labeled, everything was crystal clear and exactly as described. Walkable to Barton Springs/Zilker Park. The location is amazing for being in a lovely and quiet neighborhood and literally a few minutes of driving will bring you to numerous restaurants, shops, etc. We could hear the reggae festival in the distance while sitting on the front porch at night which was fun. We only wish our stay was longer!

We are so glad we chose this AirBnb for our mini vacation in Austin. The location was perfect .... close enough to activities and very tranquil for a nights rest. This home provided everything to create a comfy home to return to after a day of play....the bedding and pillows were top notch, the bathroom was updated and had lots extras, the living room couches and chairs were very comfy and not worn at all and the kitchen/ dining area was equipped for any meal we could dream of preparing. On the one rainy morning we experience staying in, listening to the rain and sipping on coffee and tea was also delightful because of the set up. A great home away from home.

The house was comfortable and had everything we needed. The mattress in the main bedroom was very comfortable. We walked to Zilker Park for the trail of lights and could have walked to many other places. This is a great place to stay, we will stay here again next time we visit Austin.

This was a beautiful home located close to Barton spring. The location was walking distance to it and to other places as well. My family and I felt safe at night and the view was beautiful as well. We loved it and would recommend it!
