New Year
Our stay was amazing! Everything was perfect. Cindy and Troy are wonderful hosts and, oh, the views are panoramic, and absolutely breathtaking. We could not have asked for a better experience. If you lead a busy life and crave a peaceful, serene, experience for some needed rest and relaxation in a home away from home environment, this is it.

Listing and expectations were met when we arrived at the property. Amazing place to relax and enjoy.
We went to Dripping Springs for a wedding and found this gem of a place to stay at. We really enjoyed the amazing house and pool with stunning views. Will definitely visit again.

Cute house in a spectacular location
I took a solo getaway and this place was perfect. The location is simply stunning - I couldn’t get enough of the views. The house is very clean and well stocked. The only negative was that the people who rented the space above sounded like elephants while walking around. If you’re light sleepers, maybe consider renting the upstairs unit insyead But other than that, I loved this place! I’d highly recommend it.

Thank you for your 5 star review. Gosh, I'm so sorry to hear that the upstairs guests were walking so loudly. This is the first time we've had that complaint. I do hope you enjoyed your stay and thank you for the compliments about our views and unit. We take pride in our rentals and we too enjoy the crazy amazing views! We hope you'll come back, and rent one of the upstairs units. ;) Cindy

Wonderful location and perfect unit for a romantic getaway. Beautiful property with a dazzling view of the Texas Hill Country. Cindy was very responsive to anything we needed and had everything we could possibly need for a great escape. Thank you for a great weekend and your attention to detail was a blessing. We will definitely be back! (Also the honey was delicious )

Thank you for choosing our property for your getaway Jackie! I'm sorry the bed wasn't as comfortable as you hoped. We work hard to accommodate every need. I'm sorry you have back problems. Thanks for adding that information to your honest review. We've actually had guests call us after they leave to find out what type of mattress that is, in order to personally order one. If there is anything we can do to make your stay more comfortable next time, please let me know. Cindy

Perfect base for exploring the hill country
We stayed in the ground floor unit and it was perfect for our stay in the hill country. 15 minutes from Downtown dripping and just off the 290 highway if you want to get to other parts of the area easily. The setting is idyllic and the balcony view is amazing. Apartment was spotless, had great amenities (everything you can think of and more) and very spacious. Really appreciated the honey made onsite. Will be back.

Quiet and great views
Was in Drippings Springs fora wedding at Camp Lucy. Very convenient and close. Beautiful hilltop views. Good hard top road. Quiet even with other guests above. Beautifully appointed with everything you need even with fresh fruit and waters and snacks. Was appreciative of the clothes detergent as we forgot ours. Roomy place and very comfortable. Smelled nice and was very clean. Had use of the carport.

Magical weekend
My husband and I spent the weekend at Terra Vista and we were astounded by the views. The whole experience was lovely. The host was on the property nearby but gave us plenty of privacy and it was no problem having an upstairs neighbor. The space was immaculate and they thought of all the little details. We hiked at Pedernales State Park and Hamilton Pool Preserve, both of which were beautiful. We swam in the pool, grilled steaks , watched the sunset and slept so well in the comfortable bed. I’m already dreaming of returning. Worth every penny.

Just the perfect getaway
The accommodations were excellent, the views were incredible and it was so peaceful we didn't want to leave! It was like having a home away from home in the midst of the beautiful Texas Hill Country. It is not far from Fredericksburg and Austin, but is secluded enough so that you have complete privacy. We can't wait go to back! Worth every penny. The owners are very nice and even left us a basket of goodies for snacks.

A little piece of heaven
The Payne's call their place their little piece of heaven. This is no exaggeration! The hilltop view offered just the serenity my husband and I were looking for. An unexpected pleasure was the pure silence of the outdoors – no sounds of traffic, only the breeze and the birds. The night sky was noticeably clearer than our light-polluted sky back home. We even saw a meteor! Cindy greeted us upon our arrival to ensure that everything was to our satisfaction and made us feel like family. She gave us great advice for finding our own place (one of the purposes of our trip). I can’t wait to go back!

Peaceful, Secluded Weekend Retreat
Our weekend rental was everything that we imagined and more! Located on a hilltop, overlooking the Texas Hill Country, this newly built property was spacious and very well equipped. Our host, Cindy, went out of her way to insure that we had everything that we needed to be comfortable. I am a neat freak and I must say that this was by far the cleanest rental that we have ever visited! The bed was very comfortable and the view was breathtaking! I would highly recommend this property!!

Breathtaking!!!!!
Our stay at Hilltop Villas was simply spectacular! I can not say enough good things about our experience. The villa is gorgeous and so much attention to detail was put into creating the perfect getaway spot. We enjoyed sitting on the porch enjoying the amazing view. The pool for us was the highlight and we took full advantage! Cindy is such a sweet host! We are already planning to go back. OHHH and my personal favorite is you are greeted by Mater (from Cars) when you pull in the gate. It's just perfection!

My husband and I had such an outstanding stay at the Bella Vista. We are already planning our return. Pictures cannot do this property justice. It is a beautiful view no matter where you are looking out. Cindy was an amazing and gracious host. This is our new favorite place for a quick getaway.

A SPECIAL TREAT IN THE TEXAS HILLS
One of the nicest units we have ever rented. This one bedroom unit is comfortable and quiet with views all around that are nothing short of spectacular. We spent a lot of time out on the deck just soaking in the ambience. Cindy is the nicest hostess, attentive to our needs. A great base from which to tour the Texas hill country, Austin, the outlet malls at San Marcos and San Antonio is just over an hour away. We thoroughly enjoyed our week and would return to this unit in a minute!

lovely and so peaceful!!
This lovely property is secluded on a vista in the hill country. The villa (stayed in the upper level Bella Vista)is a spacious apartment perfect in every detail - I wanted for nothing during my stay - every comfort has been addressed. This villa is new and spotless - the bed comfortable and there is a large bathroom...A sunrise with a few clouds is not to be missed - well worth getting up early for - and can be viewed from the balcony running the length of the villa or from the living area or bedroom - all of these spaces have comfortable seating inviting you to relax and enjoy the view. Unbelievably quiet with only the sound of the wind and an occasional bird...It is a quick trip back into the town of Dripping Springs - get a pizza at the Pizza Cave in Dripping Springs and dine on the balcony of the villa. I can't say enough wonderful things about Sunset Villas.

Pictures don't do justice to the view
That's no criticism of the pictures--they just can't capture how panoramic the view is. We stayed in the Bella Vista (upstairs) unit, which was beautifully appointed and so comfortable. The units face east, so you can watch the spectacular sunrises from any room. (For the non-Texans who visit, that's also much better on searing summer days.) Although we didn't do any real cooking, the kitchen is fully equipped so you could if you wanted. Despite the quiet and remote feel of the property, Dripping Springs is less than 15 minutes away with several excellent restaurants. (Besides Rolling in Thyme and Dough, we liked Homespun and the Creek Road Cafe. El Rey has good Mexican breakfasts, too.) There's much to see in the area, but the property is so comfortable and pleasant, you may find yourself sightseeing a lot less and just enjoying the views and peacefulness at the Hilltop Villas a lot more. We'd love to come back again.
