Loved everything about this place: tastefully furnished, comfortable beds, very well-stocked kitchen, responsive management, quiet neighborhood, 5-10-minute walk to Plaza, museums, restaurants, shops. No views due to tiny lot and high adobe walls, but two small patios allow outside access.

Excellent location, quiet neighborhood. Perfect for walking into town. Only down side is the air conditioning only had one vent in the hallway so the cool air did not reach the rest of the house.

Great in every way

We had a wonderful stay in this home. Location was ideal for moving around on foot and do be sure to take the advice about needing a small car to tuck into the driveway! The back patio was just lovely for breakfasting and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook dinner from our farmers market haul. A home that includes nice-quality bedding and towels gets a A from me. Thank you!

Excellent communication and easy check in. Walking distance to old town! Location is great but as mentioned parking is an issue. Cannot bring anything larger than a small SUV. It’s a dead end street so you have only one way to exit. If cars park in front of the VRBO it is difficult to get out. Practice your three point turn! Kitchen was well equipped! Laundry facilities was great! Shower was hot and water pressure was good!!Bed was comfortable but could use updated pillows. It is an older beautiful home so the floors are uneven and stairs can be difficult. Must be cautious for elderly people. Thank you for a lovely stay.

What a charming little nest of a place!!! I am a long time Santa Fe visitor and was so happy to share the Land of Enchantment with a friend who had never been to SF! The casita was clean, safe and had EVERYTHING we needed. We were close enough to the Plaza to easily walk. I do suggest maybe NOT walking back late at night..... If you want a TRUE adobe experience this was affordable, convenient and lovely. Especially the Patio in the early morning and evening (wish we could have used the kiva!). Our host was super responsive and easy to work with. Good bang for your BucK!!! A & well done.

Great location, we could walk to town. It was fun to stay in an adobe home with all of the modern conveniences. The bed could be a little more comfortable but otherwise we loved our time there. Great location to stay to enjoy Santa Fe, we can’t wait to go back.

Cozy house in a great location

This house has everything you'd want in a Santa Fe stay. A clean adobe home with a kiva fireplace and great kitchen. A wonderful outdoor space with another kiva fireplace. A dead end quiet and secluded street. Plus, walking distance to the Plaza and Railyard areas. Would definitely stay here again!

What a wonderful property! The house was great and had everything we needed. More importantly, ITS CLEAN! Everything was as described and communication with Richard was flawless. Location is great as well. Walking into the Plaza is a short walk and only took us 5-10 minutes. We would definitely recommend anyone to stay here. Its a great property!

Experiencing Adobe

Very comfortable and well maintained by responsive hosts. On a cool evening the courtyard seemed to have absorbed some of the day's heat and was unexpectedly pleasant. Only concern would be for physically challenged guests who might have difficulty with the uneven floors.

Quick visit on our ultimate destination

We have stayed in an other adobe casitas several times before. There are no words to describe the attention to detail and the cleanliness of the property - not to mention the communication with Richard. This property was much different than the other one we have stayed at, but no less amazing. It is a tight property as far as space goes, but it is like stepping back into time and and staying in an actual adobe structure. You can walk to the Plaza, the Rail Yards, and near all the wonderful restaurants and the grocery store. Our family cannot imagine staying at any other management property. Our entire family is looking forward to returning during the holiday season and staying at adobecasitas.

Our stay in Santa Fe

Overall we found the property a good value. The kitchen was well equipped, good pots and pans, silverware, dishes and appliances. The plastic tumblers should be replaced. There was plenty of space in the dinning and living areas allowing us to unwind after a long day of visiting shops, museums and galleries. Walking to downtown was easy and enjoyable. The access to the square and surrounding restaurants was excellent. Parking on the street was no problem. We also enjoyed the beautiful gardens surrounding the house. We utilized the back patio for grilling and evening cocktails. What kept us from giving a higher star rating are easy fixes: upgrading the linen and towels (matching towels and newer sheets), replacing the caulking around the tub would add to a sense of cleanliness. Replacing the broken bench or just removing it would help with first impressions. That is a beautiful garden! Overall it is a charming cottage w/south western charm on a quiet street convenient everything.

We overall really enjoyed staying in such a traditional Santa Fe home and loved the proximity to the Plaza. We loved the Kiva fireplaces, in and out, and appreciated not having to clean out the ashes. The host was excellent in communication and made check-in super easy. We liked that there was a door code and no key we had to deal with. Two items of note: 1) The property was drafty due to the lack of central heating 2) Parking was very tight for our Subaru Outback and requires backing into the space. A couple times someone parked right behind the driveway and it was impossible to back in. For someone wanting to experience Santa Fe, this is a good property to do it from
