Great when a rental exceeds expectations

The house was well appointed and better than the pictures. The neighborhood was quiet and very close to everything that we wanted to see. Can't imagine a better stay!

Spacious home with outdoor seating in a pretty desert garden in the front (we saw many hummingbirds). Quiet, safe residential street an easy walk to a good coffee shop and bookstore, walkable to Canyon Road. Very well-equipped kitchen, even a wine refrigerator, and abundant thick towels in the bathrooms. Great water pressure in the showers (better than home). Everything you need is furnished, including laundry products. Good parking for two cars off street. My one suggestion is that quilts on beds were too warm for our late summer stay, though they would be cozy in winter. Lighter summer blankets or quilts would save on air-conditioning in the warmer months and be more comfortable. Altogether a pleasant stay in a pretty neighborhood.

The accommodations were great inside and out. The location was great as well. The living room seating was the only real issue for me. The sofa was too soft and low and there was not a good alternative. It was also showing some ware. That did not take away from the overall stay.

Wonderful Getaway

This is our second time to stay and we're already talking about our next stay. It is perfectly located, classic old-style New Mexico decor, but with modern bathrooms and kitchen. The owner is very nice and responsive.

Luxurious Stay in Santa Fe

Beautiful property within easy walking distance of Canyon St. art galleries and restaurants. Charming fenced yard with comfortable seating and dining spaces. Well-appointed kitchen with everything you could possibly need for an elaborate meal or merely coffee and toast for breakfast. Would definitely stay here again. Simply gorgeous!

August Family Trip

La Serena is absolutely wonderful. The house is perfectly appointed-the kitchen had exactly everything that we needed; the beds & bedding were scrumptious; the grounds were immaculate and the home is beautifully decorated. We had an amazing stay! The owners and Lisa have made this a perfect place to really get away and recharge. I'm so thankful we were able to stay in this special home.

Lovely spot...

We have never stayed at a property that was better managed than La Serena. The completeness of the amenities and accessories - kitchen utensils, linens, paper products - is amazing. They even had a salad spinner. The manager, Lisa, is very responsive.

Excellent property

This is well maintained, wonderfully decorated house. The bedrooms are large and the bathrooms are nice. Parking is very close to street, but house is set back enough to be quiet. Off the beaten path enough to get away from crowds, but Canyon Road and Plaza are still within walking distances (10-20 minutes). Overall, a very nice property.

Charming adobe in a great neighborhood

La Serena is absolutely charming with wonderful Santa Fe decor. Two master suites are perfect for 2 couples. As others have stated, Garcia street can be loud if you are in the courtyard, but the house indeed is quiet. If you get a chance, walk down the side streets and you will see how wonderful the neighborhood is.

Lovely, comfortable, clean, well-maintained property. Spacious rooms. Quiet. Plenty of storage. Well-equipped kitchen with everything needed to host a dinner for guests. Very private outdoor space. Lisa, the property manager, checked in via text on day 2 to ensure all was as expected. Very responsive to a later question. Excellent location. Will stay here next time if available!
