The Casitas At Gruene, #5 Fiesta Casita

Our fun Fiesta casita sleeps four and is just a 5-minute walk from Gruene Hall and Historic Gruene. Guests have access to amenities shared with the other four casitas on the property, including private Guadalupe River access, a picnic area with a BBQ pit, three fire pits, and multiple outdoor seating areas.
- The heart of the Gruene historic district, The Casitas at Gruene are perfect for small groups, couples, weddings, girls' weekends and more. The Casitas at Gruene includes private access to the Guadalupe river.

The Casitas are a five-minute leisurely walk from Gruene Hall and other live music venues, plus endless shopping and dining options! We are located less than an hour from five of Trip Advisor's Best Vacation Spots in Texas, making the Casitas the perfect place to stay on your next trip!

Each Casita features one bedroom, a private bathroom, a living room with a sofa bed, and a kitchenette. When you're done kicking up your heels at Gruene Hall, browsing boutiques, or floating the Guadalupe, come back to your Casita to unwind in complete comfort. All Casitas have access to the river, community charcoal grills, fire pits, and beautiful patio areas.

The Casitas are owned and operated by longtime residents of New Braunfels. We hand-picked every detail, from floor to ceiling, to create the most luxurious accommodations in Gruene. Each Casita is stocked with a coffee bar, wine glasses, fresh linens, and everything you need to feel right at home.

Our retreat at the Casitas

Talk about the perfect location!!! We enjoyed Gruene to its fullest and our stay at the Casita was wonderful having the river property all to ourselves! The Casita is darling and the couple that answered our questions were super helpful. I have told my friends that the casitas are the place to stay!

Great location

Was in town for a show at Gruene hall so wanted something walking distance from the venue. Easy 5 minute walk. There was a good little bar across the street we enjoyed as well. Couldn’t find the light for the shower or it was burned out but other than that the casita was great!Did not get my check in email but a quick call to the owner solved that issue. Responsive and quick.

We absolutely loved our stay at the fiesta casita!! The private lake access is PERFECTION. Well worth it. Hosts were communicative and helpful. We love Gruene and everything downtown was in walking distance. Only comment is the king bed isnt really a king bed, its 2 twin beds pushed together which was a little awkward for my husband and I, but cant wait to go back!!! We actually messaged our friends already to pick a week and hopefully rent all the casitas!!!

Never happened

We booked this trip months ago and we’re so excited. Unfortunately the day of check in we were completely ghosted by the host and never received any check in information!! They would not respond to Vrbo either. And we drove 4 hours to celebrate our anniversary. Vrbo said since they were unresponsive they would put us in a hotel for the night and we could find other accommodations the next day. Needless to say so last minute nothing comparable was available not to mention we were already out of pocket 1250 for the place we booked so we drove 4 hours back. The manager did call me back several hours later and told me the reason this happened to us was not due to some horrible accident or situation bur because the phone had been dead and they were looking for a charger. I FO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PROPERTY!! They ruined our vacation.

Wonderful place and location

Nice and new, comfortable space. Many amenitites included and walkable to many shops and restaurants. The river is a bit of a walk down a long path, but worth the effort.

Quick Stay

We had a lovely stay at the Casita in New Braunfels. Reservations with Vrbo was easy. The host was amazinly responsive, attentive and accommodating. The property was beautiful and the private walk way to the river was a huge plus. My family will definitely come back. Thank you for the hospitality.

Road Noise & Poor Mattress.

Nice living space but location is poor because of road noise. Across road from business area. City was emptying dumpsters 3am. Major road with a lot of traffic 6 am to 11 pm. King bed mattress was the worst. Location very close to Gruene attractions but not worth the cost. We paid for two nights but left the property the second night so we could sleep. We will find another place to stay next trip. Parking area is limited and tight

Texas Get Away

Perfect combination for both of us. With the peaceful retreat down by the river and the closeness to shops, food and entertainment in Gruene, it was the best of both worlds. Accommodations were perfect for us. Special thanks to Dusty for her prompt assistance with the 1/2 sleep number bed issue.
