We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Casa Del Centro. The property’s location was ideal for attending our granddaughter’s Nutcracker performance and provided convenient access to Albuquerque’s attractions. The home was exceptionally clean, well-equipped, and featured a private backyard that we used daily thanks to favorable weather. The game room was especially appreciated by our visiting grandchildren. We would gladly return in the future!

Family summer vacation

House was super clean and roomy. Lots of games and great playground for the kids. Anthony the host was responsive and nice. Close to downtown, children’s museum and with in walking distance to Albuquerque zoo. If it wasn’t for neighborhood, we would give this place a 5 star rating. Lots of homeless people walking around, but they did keep to themselves.

Nice place with plenty of hang out space

We stayed at this property to be close to the Isleta Amphitheater for an event. The four bedrooms provided ample space for seven adults to stay comfortably. The backyard had a nice table and patio area. And we had a great time playing the arcade games! Home was clean and beds were very comfortable. Neighborhood was in the south part of town but was quiet.

Extended Family weekend getaway

This property was awesome. We had four adults and five children. The children's ages ranged from 7 years old to 15 years old. They loved the arcade and we had a hard time getting them to go away from all the activities in the backyard to explore more of what Albuquerque had to offer. We really enjoyed this place. It was clean and exactly as it was described on the listing.

Great stay

We stayed there in the middle of a heat wave and the AC broke. The owner immediately had service people to help, it was 10pm and he got someone over in 20 minutes. These things happen and Elijah consistently checked in and because of the inconvenience offered a discount. We will stay with him again.

Great stay in a neighborhood.

We checked in late with no issues. There was enough parking for our two trucks and trailers inning the street parking. The only disappointments I had was a confusion and was looking for the address as SE and it was SW. Once we got that figured out we found the house. Also we had 6 adults and I misunderstood that there were five separate bedrooms, there was one with a ull out couch and we were expecting a real bed. It would have been a great place for a family with kids. The games and the backyard were awesome. We loved the fire pit table. Thanks.

About the host

Hosted by Anthony Zamora

Host profile image
Hey, I’m Anthony! Therapist by profession, traveler and foodie by passion. I’m always chasing new experiences—from great meals to unique stays—and I bring that same energy into the spaces I host. Traveling and staying in other people’s homes has given me a real perspective on what guests truly want and need, so I do my best to create a place that feels comfortable, thoughtful, and easy to enjoy. If you’re staying with me, expect a space that feels like home.

Why they chose this property

✨ Why We Chose This Home
We chose this home for its location, layout, and the way it naturally brings people together. Being just minutes from some of Albuquerque’s best spots made it an easy decision—but what really stood out was how comfortable and functional the space feels for families and groups.
The home has a welcoming, lived-in warmth with a layout that allows everyone to spend time together while still having space to spread out. It’s a place that has been well cared for over the years, and that sense of comfort and purpose is something we wanted to preserve.
Outside, the private yard and large parking area were a huge plus—giving guests room to relax, play, and gather without feeling crowded.
We designed this space with intention—to create a home that feels easy, inviting, and perfect for making memories.
