  I just returned from a visit to Santa Fe where my older parents and I stayed in this condo. The condo was beautifully decorated in Santa Fe style and was very comfortable. This condo was perfect for older visitors - the elevator loads within a few steps of the front door and the parking is within a few more steps. There was handicapped accessibility and the parking lot was well lit and felt very safe. Even my little dog had a nice yard of grass downstairs to do her business. The condo was very clean, well maintained and stocked with appliances, kitchen accessories, linens, cleaning needs,etc... anything one would need to have a comfortable stay. Other than clothes and personal items, there was nothing we really needed to bring. The condo was well situated in town to have easy car access to downtown shopping, casinos, the ski area and restaurants. The owners were really friendly and easy to work with. There were no negative "surprises"... in fact, the pictures don't really do the place justice. It's a very cute and comfortable place to stay. Thanks, Scott, for your assistance in our stay.

  We really enjoyed our stay this Cielo Grando condo. Everything was clean, maintained and as described and pictured, with just a couple exceptions.These may not matter to some people, but we were a little disappointed that the Kiva fireplaced was blocked and not able to be used since it is featured in the lead picture in the VRBO Ad and mentioned in the list of amenities. I may have chosen a different property, but wasn't told about the fireplace bering closed up until after I made my final payment. At the very least I think a discount should have benn offered. Also, although the views from the 3rd floor balcony are amazing, beware that the unit back up to a major highway and the traffic noise can be pretty loud in during commuting times. Ovewrall, we were pleased with the unit and would recommend it to others. Make sure you take in some of the many wonderful restaurants in Santa Fe. Dinner for Two was the best, but we also really enjoyed, Luminaria, Pink Adobe and Tanti Luce 221. You can get the best pizza neaby at Pizzeria de Lino. Dine-in, it's great!

  Owner response: We're glad you enjoyed the condo, and that, as you said, it was very clean and well maintained with great views. Thank you for saying you would recommend it to others. We also apologize for not informing you that the fireplaces throughout the entire complex have been blocked by the condo association for safety reasons until they are all refurbished in time for the late fall season. It's usually warmer this time of year than it has been. The condo is located on a frontage road to the main artery, St. Francis, which is noisy when outside but very quiet when inside the condo. So yes, there is road noise when outside on the balcony, but there are few, if any, locations with a great view, especially at this price, in Santa Fe, and the location can't be beat for convenience, parking--and views. I wish it were perfect, but we try hard to give great value and a wonderful experience.

  What a great place to stay! It felt like home right away. We had everything we needed and were so comfortable. Beautiful view of the mountains from the living room. We were a little early in the year to enjoy the balcony, but I can imagine enjoying morning coffee out there. Everything we wanted to do was readily accessible from the nearby highway. I would recommend this condo to anyone who wants a place where you can just kick back and enjoy a homey feeling while away from home!

  We were looking for a place to get away for an impromptu visit to Santa Fe. Scott, the property manager was quick to respond and was very helpful with suggestions and instructions. The views from the condo were outstanding. There was an elevator so lugging our bags and a dog to the third floor was easy and convenient. The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and well appointed. We will definitely choose to stay again. It was convenient to local shopping and it was close to the plaza as well. The neighborhood had sidewalks which is key for us (with the dog, we walk every day).

  My family of 4 wanted to ski for Spring Break and not too far from North Texas like Colorado but still enough snow to have a good trip. I decided upon Santa Fe. Main reason was a place my wife could enjoy activities while me and my 2 son's went skiing. We decided on this condo as a spacious home for us while away. It was just what we wanted and expected. Room to spread out. Enjoy dinner as a family and quiet for a good nights sleep. We loved the view each morning from the porch as the sun run over the mountains to the east. Access to Santa Fe ski was convenient as one could have in Santa Fe. While old town would be a hike on foot. My wife had easy time with a $10 cab fare service to be dropped for shopping and easy for us to pick up after a day of skiing. Dining out was convenient and we enjoyed the drive down Cerillos to more more North Texas style shopping and dining that suited out kids better. I especially loved the 50 min ride to Pajarito ski area a few minutes outside Los Alamos. It was a great option to Santa Fe Ski for a day of skiing between 2 days at Santa Fe. What a beautiful drive through the valley and up to the Los Alamos mesa area. We would love to come back again to enjoy other seasons as well. Thanks so much for letting us stay at your condo.

  We hope to rent this unit again and will certainly recommend it to friends and family. It wouldn't be hard to stay there for a month!

  Owner response: Yes, the view is the best in the city, which is why we bought the condo. And we work hard to keep it as nice as our own home. We want our guests to return often so it begins to feel like their second home too.

  We smiled from the time we opened the door til the time we left. Such a wonderful vacation we had! The other reviews sum up wonderfully the condo and its warmth and charm. We added restaurant info to the already informative book and a puzzle just in case one gets tired of shopping and eating and touring and oohing and aahing. Thank you, thank you for sharing your home!

  This condo couldn't have been better for us. We had a training class in New Mexico for a week and wanted to come down early for a little extended weekend. We booked this condo in Sante Fe for 3 nights and did day trips from there. Absolutely perfect. Decor and location were very accurate, we couldn't have been happier. This two bedroom unit had everything we could have wanted. Although we didn't cook there much it was very well stocked. Well maintained with all the amenities we needed. The rental process was a snap with Scott taking care of everything via email and mail. We will definitely stay there again the next time we plan a trip to Santa Fe.

  We were very pleased with the condo. The decor was just as it was in the pictures- Beautiful! We had a great view of the mountains and enjoyed sitting out on the balcony. We loved that it was "dog friendly" and were glad they had a grassy area and bags in the doggy area. A huge dog park is just minutes from the condo which worked well for us. The condo was well stocked and very clean. Loved that the elevator was just across from our door so being on the third floor was never a problem. It was a great experience.

  The photos of the property were very accurate. The condo was neat, clean, and very comfortable. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. We had four adults and one toddler (2 grandparents, 2 parents and one 3 year old). The close by elevator made it very accessible for an older person. We loved eating on the patio in the evening after cooking our own meal or having food delivered. Would definitley recomend this property.
