Muy Bonita Treehouse in San Antonio, TX

Today on the blog, we’re featuring the My Bonita Treehouse Air BnB in San Antonio, Texas.  Located in a cozy family-oriented neighborhood near Sea World and Six Flags, this professionally designed home features an 8-foot Sister Stocks & Co pool!

We had a chat with the owner, Katy Higgins, on where she drew her inspiration and what makes this the perfect spot for your next Texas vacation.

SS&Co: Tell us a little bit about what made you want to expand your business and Air BnB properties from California to Texas:

KH: I have a children’s company headquartered in Texas and needed a place to stay during the California fire season, so I bought MUY BONITA as a place for me and my family to stay while working/not catching on fire. When I realized how special it was, I decided I wanted to share it with travelers and listed it on Airbnb. The thing that makes it the MOST SPECIAL is the incredible stock tank pool from Sister Stocks & Co!!! I love it more than a regular pool- it’s big enough to zoom around on a floaty and small enough to sit in on a hot day. 

SS& Co: We love the design aesthetic throughout the home, tell us about where you drew inspiration.

KH: I was inspired by South Texas’ Mexican, fiesta, cowboy, and Native American roots when designing. Vibrant color, Otomi fabrics, playful cowboy boot prints, and a lazy hammock just had to be included. 

SS & Co: What is something that makes your Air BnB special?

KH: Something I’m really proud of with this house is that it was very sustainably sourced. It is a core value of mine and I am excited I was able to not only save tons of money furnishing it with designer furniture, but I also did not add much carbon footprint. All the appliances are premium brands and previously owned (with warranties). 75% of the remaining furniture is previously owned as well. That $6000 Williams Sonoma White Italian leather couch? Found it on Facebook Marketplace for $300! That fabulous comfy outdoor couch? $150 on Facebook marketplace. Rugs, linens, towels- all-natural materials or organic, along with all cleaning materials. Feels good!
