Black Mesa Casita: Just a 5 minute walk to the Plaza!
The main entry of this very private vacation rental takes you through a large, serene patio area, which also has double French doors from the private living room of the master suite and from the large guest suite- perfect for morning coffee, evening beverages and generally relaxing in New Mexico's sweet air. Inside, the warmth of the casita's smartly designed and generous 1441 square feet immediately draws you in. Natural light just flows into the open plan living, dining, and kitchen spaces. Rich, handcarved ceiling beams, posts, and detailed wood door and window trim in every room are complemented by gleaming soft-toned tile floors and light diamond plaster walls - all say: The best of Santa Fe style!
Black Mesa Casita sleeps four people in the two large bedroom suites, both with king beds and clean, custom-tiled ensuite bathrooms. With the master and guest suites located at opposite ends of the casita, guests enjoy real privacy. The master bedroom with king bed and private living room is simply luscious. Master bathroom: spacious walk-in shower, tiled by the hands of a supremely skilled artisan, a generous walk-in closet, his-and-hers sink areas with granite tile-topped vanities, cabinetry, a private WC area, and a full-size washer and dryer. For perfection, ample natural light from the skylight. The master has its own private sitting/entertainment room off the master with french doors leading out to the main front patio. At the opposite end of the casita, the guest suite provides a dramatic entry through a double-thick silence-proof wall with a gorgeous custom-crafted, aged door. This lovely private retreat has lots of available light, opening with its own set of double French doors onto the main patio. It features a stylish bathroom with more custom tile work and a walk-in shower with a European glass shower door. This handsome room also features diamond plaster walls, deeply set windows, hand-carved beams, TV, and a separately controlled heating and cooling system for your comfort. The central common spaces of the casita flow into one another, with carved wood delineating the areas, but without unnecessary dividing walls. The kitchen is fresh and bright, with cream-colored cabinets and gorgeous granite accentuating the stainless steel appliances. The dining area table seats four with ease. An additional private fenced and walled patio is accessible from the dining area, giving you another option for dining alfresco throughout much of the year. And also perfect for pets. The living room is large, light, and comfortably furnished, with a wood-burning fireplace and hand-carved rafters in the ceiling. The fireplace has a weathered, ancient wood mantel, the focus of any chilly evening, and giving heart to this home.
The Black Mesa Casita has undergone a complete remodeling transformation with hand-picked furnishings and every last detail has come into full realization.
The casitas comes with ONE off street parking spot, additional parking can be available upon request.

Beautiful property. It is small be well appointed. The outside photos don’t look that inviting but actually it feels very secluded and such a nice spot to relax and enjoy reading a book, having morning coffee, etc.. easy walking distance to the plaza. It’s expensive but very lovely!!
Great location 5 min walk to Plaza. Great layout; interior design was beautiful southwest style and functional. 3 outdoor patio areas! Definitely will come back
We truly enjoyed our time at the Black Mesa Casita.Such a comfortable place so close to everything. Above all, the management company was extremely responsive and accommodating to all of our needs
We frequent Santa Fe and were looking for a place with easy walking distance to the plaza and our favorite restaurants. This location was perfect!

We were very comfortable in this spacious house and enjoyed the outdoor seating. The location is quiet and very walkable. We will rent this place again!
Excellent location, easy walk to Plaza and restaurants. Very spacious, clean, and private. Perfect layout for 2 couples with Ensuite BRs at opposite ends of house. We recommend it highly.

Thank you for taking the time to leave our Black Mesa Casita a review! We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your time and we will look forward to hosting you in the future!
Seems that AdobeStar Properties was bought out by Santuario? This was our 3rd or 4th stay is one of these properties and not our favorite. Poor communication with management office, as in a lack of, which may be due to new ownership. Also, for the price I would have expected another bar or two of soap, more kitchen amenities and a clean patio. Swept it and cleaned tabletops myself. Also the string lights on patio didn’t work. Will think twice about booking with your company for future stays. Sadly disappointed.

Hello Kristen! Thank you for leaving us your feedback and we apologize that there was a lack in communication. Black Mesa Casita is still managed by AdobeStar Properties and not Santuario so we sincerely apologize if there was a lag in communication and we will pass along all your feedback to our maintenance and housekeeping as we usually leave 4 of everything in regard to toiletries. Going forward if you so choose to stay with us again, which we hope you do, we are just a few blocks away so if there is anything that you need or concerns that you have during your stay we can usually address them very quickly. After you left we did address the lights in the patio and somehow the timer was not set correctly anymore so that was a quick fix. Thank you again for staying with us and we hope to have the opportunity to meet your expectations the next time you visit Santa Fe.
