About this property

Sandia Heights #1 rental

Nestled in the foothills of the Sandia Mountains this newly remodeled home is the perfect location for your stay in Albuquerque. Views of the mountain and city lights can be seen from both patios of the home. Located just off Tramway Blvd and Paseo Del Norte this home provides easy access to the many nearby sites. The 'World's Longest Tram' is basically in your backyard. Enjoy a spectacular ride to the top of the mountain where a day of skiing or hiking awaits you or just take a ride to enjoy a fine dining experience at High Finance Restaurant. If you are wanting a more casual dining experience, I recommend the Mexican restaurant at the base of the tram which offers a spectacular view from the patio. Enjoy a mango margarita while viewing a spectacular New Mexico sunset.

If you are feeling lucky only a few more minutes down the hill you will find Sandia Resort and Casino offers the largest gaming facility in the state. The resort features a top rated golf course, spa facilities, restaurants, live entertainment and dancing. Don't forget to check out the buffalo that you can see from the road on the way down.

If you are wanting to get some exercise mountain bikes are available upon request. The bike trail is only a minute away. Don't be surprised if you pass some quail or 'beep-beep' there goes a road runner.

Forgot some essentials? A new CVS pharmacy is two minutes away. Other close by shopping includes Alberston's, Trader Joes, Barnes and Nobles, Target, and Kohls.

Once your day is complete you can relax in contemporary southwestern flair. Our home provides a spacious living area with hardwood floors and high ceilings that feature famous New Mexico artist's work.

A 50'' flat screen LCD in both the master bedroom and living room with Direct TV. Wireless internet for your laptop is available also.
The gourmet kitchen features stainless steel appliances with a top quality kitchenware to prepare meals that can be enjoyed at the bar or at the gorgeous dining room table that can seat up to 6 people.

This home is the perfect retreat for two couples because each bedroom has it own bathroom and private patio area.

I spent 4 weeks here to get a feel for the area as I am considering moving here. C had the house ready when I arrived and was very responsive for questions I had. I was hoping to park my car in the carport but it was a little too tight for my liking due to the added storage space in the carport. Other than that, it was a comfortable space.

Great location especially if you are planning to take the Tram to Sandia Peak - only five minutes at most. Close to the city but also far enough to be relatively peaceful. The surrounding neighborhoods are very nice and we felt absolutely safe.The home itself is good with plenty of space for up to a family of four. Very spacious in the open concept kitchen-dining-living room. Clean but definitely used is how I would describe the shape of the house. Needs a little TLC with painting, better lighting and better kept outside landscaping - the tiny backyard lot (probably 30’x15’ (more or less) is dirt, overgrown trees/shrubs and patio furniture that would be better served in the local dump. Lastly (in terms of the house, which is a duplex) is the ask from Christine (the owner) to not use the central heating system. Not sure why but there were electric portable heaters that did the job - just weird I guess - I’m pretty sure that the house heating was working fine. The kitchen is fully furnished with dishes and all that you would need to prepare and serve meals. We didn’t use the dishwasher, and aside from the refrigerator ice dispenser not working, all other appliances were in good working order.Christine is extremely responsive which I really appreciated. And overall I believe the price was appropriate for what you get.I’d stay there again - and I would rate the house and stay as a 4 out of 5.Thanks Christine.

Great place in a great location!

My wife and I had a great week staying here. It's location in the foothills was a great launching pad to exploring the trails and using the tram! Will definitely be looking to come back again!

About the host

Hosted by Christine Hoffee

Host profile image
Welcome to my casa! Originally from Louisiana, I came to the 'Land of Enchantment' on a tennis scholarship from the University of New Mexico. After graduation I decided to make Albuquerque my home. It is simply a wonderful place to live. In fact, I live right next door to my vacation home. So if there are any issues or help I can provide I am happy to help immediately. It is like having your own concierge at your disposal. Because I tennis allowed me to travel much of my life, I feel I have a good understanding what a traveler requires. I always preferred housing over hotels. The unique aspect of this house is that everything is brand new in it. From the flooring to the light fixtures, toilets, sinks, showers, furnishings, dinnerware, EVERYTHING! It is meticulously clean yet extremely comfortable with all modern amenities in an excellent location. I look forward to your stay!

Why they chose this property

I chose to purchase a vacation rental in Sandia Heights because of the location. The area is an upscale neighborhood in the Sandia foothills. There are very few homes in this area that are available to rent. It is extremely tranquil and the views are spectacular. The location is perfect because it is only 20 minutes to the Albuquerque airport and downtown and only 45 minutes to Santa Fe. Living next door makes it easy to manage and allows me to provide the upmost attention to any needs that need to be met. Because the home has been COMPLETELY remodeled allows me to just focus on the needs of each guest, sort of like a personal concierge service. Having lived here for over 20 years I am very familiar with the city and what it has to offer.
