Casa Alegre
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
This beautiful 4,700 square feet 1929 Spanish-style home will take you back in time with its original architecture and interesting history as a former monastery. Nestled on more than an acre of land in sunny San Antonio, step back in time as you gaze at the Juliet-style balcony, mission-style furniture, original artwork, and sprawling garden and courtyard space. Located in the center of town, Casa Alegre is only 15 minutes from the Riverwalk and Pearl Brewery, and only 20 minutes to south town.
Happy and cheerful as the name states, Casa Alegre oozes old-world charm. Walk inside and you will instantly take notice of the primary kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances and ample meal prep space. There are also two dishwashers and two full size refrigerators, providing ample space to store food and wash dishes for those longer stays or large gatherings. A butler's kitchen is just steps away and has been converted into a coffee and tea bar, perfect for those who perform a ritual morning sip. The sprawling formal dining table comes well-prepared to host elegant family dinners, and sunlit meals can be enjoyed alfresco on the outdoor dining table.
There are three living rooms, two with TVs; a game room and additional TV room, plus a formal living room toward at the front of the home. The soft sofa and large TV in the game room provide the perfect spot to curl up for movie nights. This room also boasts a pool table, an air hockey table, board games, a guitar, and a record player.
Four of the home's five bedrooms are large, light-filled, and adorned with soft linens. Two of the main bedrooms are en-suite. While exploring the bedrooms, you will also find lovely, tiled bathrooms and a separate laundry room. There are two separate offices providing ample work space for remote work or school tasks. There is one off of the downstairs primary bedroom, one off the dining room, and a separate laundry room. The additional TV room presents an excellent space for the kids to tune into their weekend morning cartoons, and the additional free-standing chapel room is a great space to work out!
Outside, the pool has a beautiful deck attached to it with two changing rooms right off the water, for your convenience. When you need a break from the sun, but still want to be outside, sit and read on the covered patio.
The memories made at Casa Alegre will be drenched in sunshine, warm to the heart, and truly unforgettable!

Neat older house that would sleep 10 people Wish there was a BBQ pit for grilling.

This place is an awesome place to stay for your vacation! The location is about 15 minutes from the airport, Six Flags, and Downtown/Riverwalk. The house is spacious with plently of rooms to give everyone their own space. The pool is one of the best I have seen at any property. AC and WiFi all worked well and the game room was awesome for the kids. I would highly recommend this place and stay here again!

I’m not sure what this house had more of - charm or space - but definitely had plenty of both. This house was an experience in itself. We loved it. 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms with more room than you’ll ever need to stretch out!! Hide and seek paradise! This was probably the best rental I’ve ever stayed in. It was also clean and had great amenities!! I will be back!!!!!

We immediately fell in love with the homes history. There are so many rooms and hallways! Great for night time hide n seek!
The convenience of all grocery stores and easy access to highways make this a prime spot!

It was a very spacious property both indoors & outside. We enjoyed the game tables and the privacy of the property. The only thing that we felt shorted was not having tv’s in all the bedrooms and the mattresses in the upstairs bedrooms were very stiff.

It was amazing. Rooms everywhere. Multiple kitchens. So many places to hang out in. Beds were comfortable. The pool has a deep end, I think 7 feet, which is a plus for adults. The kids loved it too.
