Get to know Albuquerque as you never have before by staying in a beautiful, historic, well-established neighborhood just one short block from the University of New Mexico campus. Our home is on Las Lomas, one of the few shady, elm-lined streets in the city.
The casita is the original garage to our beautiful home, built in 1924 in the "pueblo revival" style. The casita is in itself a historic building, made of authentic adobe bricks and wood framing. We've decorated it as we have our home, with Latin American folk art and textiles, regional antiques, and charm galore. It's warm, cozy, and private--a perfect home base for your business or pleasure trip to Albuquerque and the great southwest. Curl up with a book or magazine and relax!
The kitchen is fully-equipped with pots, pans, bake wear, plates, cutlery, and brand new appliances (microwave, coffee pot, toaster oven). We supply some basic staples to get you started on your stay (coffee, tea, milk, sugar, salt, pepper, olive oil). The bathroom has new fluffy towels and baskets of basic toiletries for your convenience.
There is a stacked washer and dryer along with laundry soap, dryer cloths, and any basic supplies you might need during your stay to keep the place tidy. There is a large color TV with basic cable. Wi-Fi in the main house sometimes reached the casita, but it is not guaranteed.
There is lots of closet and drawer space, so whether you stay for a night, a week, or a month . . . you will be comfortable.
Lastly, we are very much at your disposal for suggestions, recommendations, ideas . . . we love our wonderful city, state, and region and are happy to share our enthusiasm with you.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2003
Hello! I am Lori de Ravello - I was raised in Santa Fe, New Mexico, but now live in Albuquerque. My husband, Renan, is from Peru. We have two beautiful children: Santiago and Magdalena. I work in public health and my husband is an accountant. In my free time, I like to run, cycle, swim, do triathlons, and play tennis. We are proud of our historic home and neighborhood and welcome you to visit our cute vacation casita so you can get to know this wonderful city and state for yourself.
Why the Owner Chose Albuquerque
We fell in love with this neighborhood and our house the minute we saw it. It was built in 1924 in the "pueblo revival" style - it's pueblo style with craftsman era touches, such as wrought iron, stained glass, and other period architectural flair. The guest house--or casita--was the original garage for the main house; now it has been transformed into a cute and cozy space for our guests.
The Unique Benefits of this Guest House
We are located one block from the University of New Mexico campus, and close to the "north campus", which includes the law school, medical school, school of public health, and golf course. We are equidistant (about one mile in either direction) to downtown and Nob Hill - both have wonderful shopping, restaurants, and performing arts.
