Spring Break 2011
Guest: LW

Date of Stay: 03/14/11
Review Submitted: 03/22/11
We rented this property (along with the Casita) for our annual family spring break trip. There was a total of 10 people, and the property actually had accomodations for 12 (with the Casita). This property is located in a private compound, and was superb. Access was very easy, and only minutes into town. There is a large, outdoor seating area with fireplace and our family enjoyed the chilly nights while sitting around the fire. The interior is beautiful and as mentioned on the listing. The primary kitchen was large and great for preparing dinner. Truly a great property for a family to enjoy. I would strongly recommend.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, sightseeing, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers.
Perfect for our Group

Our group of 8 were so comfortable in this luxury home and casita. We found the property to have all of the amenities, cleanliness and charm that the property description includes. It was meticulously furnished and accessorized with original art from the Southwest and Mexico. The location was in walking distance to a fine restaurant, El Nido, and a short driving distance to downtown Santa Fe. It is also well-located for sightseeing in this area of the Southwest. We entertained one evening and enjoyed having several of us working in the large, expansive kitchen. We would recommend this property for a group of women, several couples, family with children, or others who appreciate the spacious home and wonderful outdoor patios and outdoor living areas. We would rent this property again in the future and have told many of our friends about it!
Owner response:Thanks so much. We look forward to having you back again in the future!

July 2010 Stay
Guest: maureen

Date of Stay: 07/09/10
Review Submitted: 08/10/10
Although the houses are beautifully decorated and the grounds nice, there were things either broken or poorly maintained. These items included door locks, windows and fans. The only toilet in the guest house backed-up the first night along with a broken faucet spraying water everywhere. A plumber showed up to make repairs the following afternoon. Our friend had to leave the guest house for several hours while repairs were completed. When we asked the owner for a refund of guest house rental for one night, the owner refused. When you pay thousands of dollars in rental fees, you expect everything to be in good working order along with excellent service. This is not an economy motel!!
Owner response:We take great pride in this property. We have totally renovated it from top to bottom and it is professionally managed not only by us (we are in commercial real estate) but by the best local property manager. They have very rigorous criteria and the house is thoroughly checked before each rental. All locks, doors, windows, ceiling fans, electronics, internet, cable tv are all reviewed to make sure they are working. The housekeeper is also the best in town and they oversee her to make sure that she meets their standards as well. If there is a problem we correct it immediately. With several weeks per month rented this year, we have had no negative reviews. The renters above had a problem with the toilet backing up and a broken faucet. They called and it was fixed. This is our obligation and we felt that excellent service was provided within 24 hours. We felt that their request was not warranted and that the level of the inconvenience was exaggerated only as a way to recoup a portion of their rental fee. We have experienced this in the past by one other party. But one thing we do agree with is that this is not an economy motel but one of the best properties you can rent in Tesuque and Santa Fe. We invite you to come and check it out for yourself.
