"The best of both worlds"…that's what you get when you stay at Casa Viva! On the one hand, you get incredible views of the massive mountain scape that defines the Southwest. On the other, you're just minutes from experiencing the amazing architecture of Santa Fe Plaza and the original Spanish Market Square! Conveniently located near historic downtown Santa Fe, this two bedroom, two-and-a-half bath home also gives you easy access to the nearby pueblos, where you can immerse yourself in the rich Native American history and culture of one of the country's most unique areas.
Just minutes from downtown Santa Fe, Casa Viva sleeps five people comfortably and is built in the Pueblo Revival adobe style. A light, bright, open-concept living area features tiled floors, wood ceilings (complete with viga beams), comfortable furnishings, a corner kiva fireplace and large flat-screen cable TV and entertainment system. Plenty of windows and skylights let in natural light and offer inspiring views of the surrounding terrain. Gather at the large, farmhouse-style dining table to enjoy a family meal or game night. Close by the spacious kitchen features a kitchen island and eye-catching Talavera tiles, while the expansive wood cabinets are well stocked with all the cookware, dinnerware, and utensils you’ll need to prepare your favorite Mexican dishes (or heat up leftovers from one of the many culinary delights the area has to offer).
Casa Viva's main bedroom features a luxurious queen-size bed, outdoor access and en suite full bathroom. The second bedroom boasts a comfortable queen-size bed and ceiling fan. Just off the second bedroom, a sitting room with twin bed is perfect for your little one or any overnight guests. Two gorgeously tiled full bathrooms plus a half-bath mean no waiting in line to get ready in the morning, and a laundry closet with washer and dryer let you pack light. A private enclosed patio and private balcony offers a spacious retreat where you can sit and enjoy sunny New Mexico's mountain views by day and starry skies by night while you grill up some steaks for fajitas.
Located in Historic Eastside Santa Fe and with its plethora of opportunities for skiing, biking, hiking, rafting and more, Casa Viva is the ideal spot from which to enjoy your Southwester vacation. So book your stay today!

The location was perfectly located next to the beautiful Santa Fe downtown plaza. There were great restaurants, art galleries and amenities all within 5 minutes. Would recommend.
Beautiful, very comfortable property. Toiletries and hair dryers in the bathrooms. This is not a pet friendly property despite the description, but not a problem for us as we had no pet with us.

I was travelling with a relative from England. I needed a place to stay that was walkable to the downtown area. As my guest was going to be left alone without transport for the end of the trip. The place suited our needs perfectly.

It is valuable for helping us continue to improve our services. We hope you and your relative had an enjoyable trip overall.
The condo was spacious, clean, comfortable, well stocked, and has several outdoor spaces. Though we would stay Casa Viva again the lack of a/c during the warm months could make the house uncomfortable, also I imagine 4 wheel drive would be necessary to exit the driveway during ice and snow.

The property met our needs very well. When we had a weird HVAC issue, the property manager had someone there right away. It was great to be able to walk to the Old Santa Fe sites!
The condo is beautiful, the cupboards were well stocked, the location is ideal and it was the perfect set up for our dogs (especially the fenced yard and the spacious tiled area upstairs). We all were very happy!

I loved it, the little things, door was kind of tough to open, and the master bedroom toilet did not flush very well. Lost wifi one night (kept me off my computer, lol). But otherwise I really enjoyed it.
Place was nice, but internet and hot.water in one of the bathrooms didn't work for whole stay. Management was called, but no one came to address.
