this immaculate casita was the perfect two-night stay for me and is exactly as advertised. it's in a great neighborhood, it's quiet, parking is ample, hosts communicated promptly and answered all questions. There's a huge closet with a full-mirror, though I didn't need the closet, it looked incredible. The bed was comfortable, the place was well decorated and it had everything I needed. I loved the table and chairs and how they used the space. I recommend it!

Beutiful, quiet, & comfy studio

The property is wonderful! It's quiet & private, well stocked, spacious, clean, with a comfy king bed. The courtyard is a lovely place to enjoy coffee, breakfast, or cocktails. The location feels very private and is also so convenient to access everything. It's walking distance to Canyon Rd & the Plaza. Marge communicated with us about everything!

Beautiful rental

This rental is a first class updated property! Located in a very quiet safe neighborhood and close to everything. Beware, the property is located on a "one way" section of the street that Google maps does not pick up.

Ideal location

If you are looking for the Santa Fe experience, this property Is in the heart of historic old SF. Easy walking to Canyon Road and many restaurants. Apartment is newly renovated and has off street parking. We had a bit of a problem with WiFi but our host was very responsive in trying to get it corrected. Overall a great experience.

Joya del Este really delivers

My husband and I agreed, this is by far one of the best rental spaces we've ever experienced. The space was immaculate as well as welcoming and restful. We also enjoyed discovering the many amenities that Margaret has carefully and genuinely "curated" to enhance the casita. Her design choices added splendid touches to the bath, the kitchen and the rest of the space. The appliances, the flatware and cookware as well as the dishes and cups were luxe and lovely. It was a real privilege to stay here. And although the casita is adjacent to the main house, the casita has its own entrance and is very quiet.

Elegant Santa Fe retreat in a prime location

This elegant Santa Fe style studio apt, just a block from Canyon Road, offers a peaceful and convenient location. The interior is a very tasteful blend of southwestern charm and modern elegance, with the living, bedroom, and kitchen integrated into the main space. The one wall kitchen was gorgeously designed, well equipped, and had stunning tiles. We appreciated a separate washer, dryer, newly renovated bathroom and convenient on-site parking. The outdoor space was perfect for enjoying morning coffee, making this a solid choice for anyone visiting Santa Fe.

Quiet, peaceful, beautiful, walkable

Stayed here for an anniversary trip, and if we come back to Santa Fe would absolutely stay here again. Property details are accurately covered by the listing photos; tranquil space that's a 20 min walk to the town square and footsteps to Canyon Rd. We loved our time in SF and our stay here was a huge part.The bed is more on the firm side, whether that's a pro or a con for you.Awesome stay! 5 stars in every sense.

Exceptional Property

The casita was in an excellent location. We walked to the plaza every morning for exercise and the trees along the way were so pretty. The casita was exceptionally clean! We were very close to everything we wanted to see in Santa Fe. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet. The kitchen and laundry room was nice and had everything we needed. Hopefully this casita will be available next time we are in Santa Fe!

Quiet & Cozy

I loved every minute of my stay in this tastefully appointed casita, and though I was traveling along, I felt completely safe. The neighborhood was charming and so quiet I could hear crickets at night. The kitchen was very clean and well appointed. Aside from the lovely bathroom and very comfy bed, I appreciated the rather large closet which included drawers and shelving, enough for two people to share at least one weeks worth of clothes, etc. The casita couldn't have been better located, away from the downtown hubbub, but a stone's throw from galleries and really great restaurants. The hosts were also very responsive. I will definitely be returning!

Return to this Santa Fe Jewel

We were so happy to return to this Casita, which we first booked last March. It felt like home and was just as cozy, comfortable and welcoming as we remembered. And its proximity to Canyon Road with galleries and bistros is a plus!

Serious Plumbing issues

Upon arrival there was a very strong odor of sewer gas which permeated the entire casita. We called the host who was in Poland - she insisted the odor was not sewer gas but the portable AC unit which has “a funky odor”. She admitted the sewer drain recently had issues but had been “fixed”. After 24 hrs of using the plumbing the smell abated. 3rd day of our stay there was weak shower pressure with barely enough water to bathe. On the 4th day there was NO water coming out of the shower. While trying to reach the host in Poland, there was a loud crash & the tub spout w/diverter “fell” out of the wall. Now there was NO way to bathe. Host said plumber would come by during the day, but never did.That evening (6:30pm)while at dinner w/friends, the sister of the host (also out of state) phones to ask “when will we be home” to let the plumber in (he couldn’t find the hidden key). She admitted plumber had been there the week before & thought the problem had been fixed. We refused to cut our evening short to accommodate their plumber. We said we’d shower at a friend’s house but requested a one night credit for the inconvenience of not showering for 2days. Host said yes, we were due something, but never issued a credit OR responded. Instead, she filed an claim with the insurance policy we bought for $430. No refund & she bills Insurance! This is a very old building (charming as it is) with plumbing and sewer problems that the host is well aware of. It was a VERY stressful stay.

A great experience.

This accommodation checked all the boxes. Squeaky clean. Spacious room (larger that it looks in the photos). Very comfortable bed. Very inviting outdoor space with the acequia running through it. An easy 2-block walk to Canyon Road with its galleries and three restaurants. Quiet neighborhood with interesting possibilities for strolling.
