This listing is for the FULL ESTATE, including the Main 3-Story Home & 2-Story Guest House ("Garden House").
The Palms on Lake Travis is an exclusive and privately-owned, gated, high-end, 3 story, waterfront, estate vacation rental home with a 2 story guest house for those who wish to relax on Lake Travis. We are proud to have received more than 129 perfect 5 star reviews across platforms!
This Mediterranean-style jewel is absolutely stunning! This is our primary home. We live here and rent it out occasionally, and we are excited to share our extraordinary piece of Texas waterfront paradise with you! We expect our guests to treat our home with care and as their own.
The Palms is conveniently located lakeside, 1 mile from the Oasis restaurant ('The Sunset Capital of Texas') on the scenic Comanche Trail drive around the main basin of Lake Travis. This location is prime for those who want to enjoy Austin - it is only a 30 minute drive to downtown Austin and about a 35 minute drive to the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport!
Please note that we do not accept bachelor parties, spring breakers, or any party groups. We strive to be a peaceful and relaxing getaway for families, couples, mature friends, low-key celebrations, and corporate retreats. If you desire more of a "party" atmosphere, then another location would be a better fit for your group. Thank you for understanding!

If you are bringing a child or baby under the age of 5, you can rent baby gear to make your travel easier at BabyQuip - https://www.babyquip.com?a=4285eb8.

Ratings and reviews
Summary of reviewsBeautiful property with excellent amenities, comfortable beds, well-stocked kitchen, great location by the lake, and accommodating hosts. Highly recommended!
10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2026
Perfect all around. This was for a long weekend with family. The hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful. The property was impeccable…even better than “advertised.” All information was clear and recommendations great. The welcome handbook was chock-full of good, useful information. On a 5-star scale this is a 10!
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2024
The guest homes are beautiful, clean and well-stocked. We had three couples and stayed in both of the guesthouses. Beds were very comfortable, plenty of linens and many extras! Robin and Rodney were the best hosts! Looking forward to visiting them again. Highly recommend!
10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2023
Exactly as advertised, hosts are awesome
5 / 10·Apr 2021
The layout is different because there are actually two buildings. That said, the mattresses have foam toppers, everything you would expect at home is in this house so this very comfortable. Tons of towels. We fished at the dock which was quite fun. We built a fire and roasted marshmallows. We got in the hot tub and told stories. We played basketball. We played with the dog. For a family, this place is just great. We have elementary age kids and a teenager. Everyone had a blast. The owners have excellent attention to detail. Everything is well explained. Sometimes rentals have goofy showers or uncomfortable beds. Neither true here. I will definitely return!
