Convent Bed & Breakfast

     Spend a night in the quiet country atmosphere of Panna Maria, Texas, in our Convent Bed & Breakfast located between the Immaculate Conception Church & St. Joseph School Museum.  Wake up to the sounds of birds singing, roosters crowing, & church bells ringing.  Enjoy a Continental Style breakfast of Polish pastries & coffee or fruit with bread & jellies.  Spend the day strolling through the historic village of Panna Maria, Texas, the oldest permanent Polish settlement in the USA.  Browse through the Visitors Center and find one- of-a-kind items to buy, or just visit with the volunteers.  You may look up your family tree in the many genealogy volumes prepared by Gayle Olenick.

     This is a perfect place for a retreat with Masses celebrated in the Chapel Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and in the Immaculate Conception Church next door the rest of the week.

     Or spend the day visiting historic Helena, Texas, only 5 minutes to the east, or Karnes City & Kenedy only 10 or 15 minutes to the south.  Visit the neighboring Polish parishes of Cestohowa, Kosciuszko, Falls City, or St. Hedwig & update your family tree.  Perhaps your ancestors are buried in the cemeteries of our parish or these surrounding parishes.

     If you prefer, drive to the many surrounding cities such as San Antonio, about 50 miles to the north and see the famous Alamo or spend the day at Fiesta Texas, Sea World, or walk along the famous River Walk & enjoy the many riverside cafes and shopping malls.  Goliad, with its historic forts & battlegrounds, is only about 40 miles to the southeast.

Living room, kitchen, dining room, and 4 bedrooms with double beds - 2 bedrooms with single beds & 3 bathrooms.  Enough room to sleep up to 10 people.
