  Thanks so much Horace for making our stay in Albuquerque Awesome! There were a few "hiccups" but that is sometimes out of anyone's control as it was on this trip. When the hot tub broke down ( by no fault on your part) before we came you called right away, said we could cancel and apologized and compensated us by lowering our rental rate and even offering for us to use your own personal hot tub from your home, which was very sweet by the way. And when there was a small miscommunication, you went even farther by offering us the larger rental of the 3 bedroom/2 bath for the same price as the 2 bedroom. We loved staying there, it was extremely clean and beautifully maintained. We felt right at home the minute we stepped in the door. The fireplace was wonderful and the beds were extremely comfortable, we also enjoyed the amazing waterfall in the back yard. And that awesome coupon book you let us use had everything we could have needed to any place in Albuquerque and we were able to save some money which is always helpful. The restaurant recommendations you gave us also helped tremendously and the food and staff were superb at Antiquity. All in all it's a vacation that brought many great memories and we have you to thank for a lot of those. Your a great host and people person and definitely got in the right business, We not only enjoyed your beautiful home but the personalized service that you give as if we were a part of your family. We hope to stay again in the future. Thanks again! David and Melony

  Owner response: From the moment I booked this family, they treated me with the utmost kindness, trust and friendship that no innkeeper could imagine. This family, consisting of the mother and her family of 7 adults with spouses came out for a wedding in Albuquerque. They rented initially 1 home and then added on another for 2 homes to house all of them. They also rented a van and a luxury car from us in addition to enjoying the stretch limo. Never have i seen such an easy going family that new how to have a good time, cooking, playing cards, hot tubing and of course attending the wedding. They were so gracious and had so much love to share with everyone around them including me the innkeeper. I felt like a newly adopted member of the family and they treated as if I had known them forever. Whatever this mom, Darlene, did to raise the 7 children to the loving and kind adults they are today, is truly a marvel in this world we live in today. Congratulation on a successful trip to our land of enchantment, but the credit goes to you for being such an easy going, loving mother without prejudice and a wonderful sense of adventure. It was truly the a breath of fresh air dealing with this family! Take Care and we hope to see you back in NM. Horace

  This was our first trip to Albuquerque and we wanted a safe, well-kept, single story 3 bedroom 2 bath house within easy access to all the city enchantments and at a good price. This "Blu Villa" easily satisfied all the above and each of the seven days we spent there was totally comfortable. This had all the amenities of home with 2 baths, 2 TVs, large living room, large combination kitchen and dining, laundry room, and remote controlled garage for the car. Our host, Horace, was available for any of the questions we had about the area and was quite knowledgeable about Albuquerque. We highly recommend this for anyone wanting a stay in Albuquerque!

  Owner response: Wendell and Gloria were the most wonderful gracious house guests a vacation rental owner can have. They were an adventurous fun loving couple that came out to New Mexico as part of a 3 week southwest tour. I offered them local 2 for 1 coupons and pointed out local favorite restaurants and popular places that reflect the initial charm of the old RT66 highway now called Central Avenue. They enjoyed the restaurants in the area, and the best part was taking them with me to the automatic car wash to wash their car. They were so kind and thoughtful and reprogrammed my direct tv remotes that had been accidentally derailed by previous guests that didn't understand the remotes. Wendell even fixed a little problem with the cloths dryer door that decided not to close properly during their stay. What they didn't tell me is that a celebrity was staying in my home. Wendell an accomplished pianist that performs for broadway musicals and who has recorded several CDs was one of the three house guests. The most unique and wonderful gift that they gave me as a parting gift was a collection of 4 piano styling CDs of popular favorites that is absolutely charming. This piano music is so enjoyable and relaxing that I plan to us it in our cars for our chauffeured guests to enjoy and for dinner parties as well. Wendell and Gloria, and their Sister, were the type of renters all VRBO home owner/renters should be privileged enough to have. Thanks for the 4 lovely CDs that will live on as entertainment for all our clients ands guest to come! Happy Travels!

  A great trip to Albuquerque for our group of four women! The "Blu" was perfect for our needs with a spacious, fireplace room to kick back and relax and plenty of sleeping space. Easy drive to Old Town and downtown and the option of a car with airport transportation included is so convenient. Owner is just a phone call away for questions or a limo ride. Nice backyard area with patio tables to enjoy the New Mexico sunshine. Recommend this property.

  My sisters and nieces (8 women) had a wonderful 4 day week-end staying at the Blue Villa. We were met at the airport and picked up in a limo and we rented the van provided and used it to see areas outside of Albuquerque...enjoying the scenary of Jimez Mountains and Santa Fe. The balloon fiesta was fun and a sight to see. Overall we had a wonderful experience and Horace was a gracious host, making sure we had what we needed during our stay. I highly recommend staying in any of his rentals. He will make sure you have what you need to make your stay more enjoyable.

  Doris YInger, Beatty family reunion, Cincinnati Ohio The house was beautiful and spacious. Everything was at our disposal. Horace was wonderful to help with selecting restaurants and places to see. The deck was great for having morning coffee or to relax in the evening. If you are going to Albuquerque, this is the place you want to rent and Horace is awesome.

  Dear Horace,You were a blessing for me and my family. :-) Any questions or suggestions for restaurants or anything, you were always available by phone. Our family reunion party on Friday May 29,2009 was perfect and the patio was the perfect touch. I was so pleased to have you attend my retirement party as our family values are so similar. You treated us as VIP's and have made long lasting friendships. God Bless and take care.Love,Rory
