Relaxing Vibes With Beautiful Views

I could not have asked for a better place to stay. We only stayed one night, but wished we could have stayed longer. There was great communication from the host. The place was beautifully decorated and had very peaceful, relaxing vibes. There were gorgeous views no matter which direction you looked. I would definitely book a stay here again.

Placitas Casita

This casita is a great place for a restful, working several days. It is well situated to visit the sights yet quiet and away from the urban bustle of ABQ. I recommend it to all travelers, whether new to New Mexico or a seasoned visitor, like me. Tom

Southwest Magic

Our private casita was at the end of the road on the side of a hill with picturesque wild mustangs & views of the snow coming over the mountain! Judy is a very gracious hostess. She was very available with answers to questions. Go eat at the Placitas Cafe just down the road.

A gem!

This is a beautiful place to stay, both inside and out. It was clean, quiet, comfortable and everything you could want or need was there. It’s the perfect distance between Albuquerque and Santa Fe with amazing views from the patio and every window. Even though it’s behind the main house it’s very private and beautifully decorated. Don’t pass this on up!

superb!

We traveled to the area of Bernalillo to pick up some material for a bath remodel. The casita in Placitas was the perfect answer to our needs. Just a few minutes east of our destination, the Casa Pajarito made for a quiet relaxing spot to decompress at the foot of the Sandia Mountains. The fall colors were spectacular and unexpected April snow was a nice surprise. The owner was very helpful and responsive. Highly recommended!
