Considering it was prime time for vacation rental, we knew the price would be significantly elevated. The property was really nice and in a great location. The only challenge we ran up against was the air conditioning was 80 degrees during the day, so we had to open the doors when we returned to the house each day to cool off the house. We loved the layout and the privacy of the courtyard was really outstanding. If you can fix the AC timing, that would make this property ideal.

Hi Rhonda, I’m very glad that you loved everything else of the property but the AC. Yes, it has been a long and hot summer and my AC is working a little sluggish and takes a bit longer time to get to set point. Replacing it is on my agenda. Yes, the price was automatically adjusted by Beyond Pricing platform based on the entire rental marketing analysis. Thank you very much for taking time reviewing! Hope to have you back in the future.

Our stay was comfortable in a sunny neighborhood and walking distance to a park, Target, and fast food. It was clean, with touches of the Southwest throughout. Plenty of room 11for the two of us and would have been wonderful to have had our family. Dani was a wonderful host and quick to respond. The outdoor private seating areas were comfortable, the inside was spacious, the kitchen had top appliances and was stocked with spices, coffee and quality cookware in the huge pantry! The master suite was luxurious with wonderful linens as was the elegant bathroom. After pulling out of the 3 car garage, it was only a couple minutes to the major highways!We would definitely enjoy another visit.The West’s from Northern California

The house was beautiful and very clean! We really enjoyed our stay. There were just a couple of minor things that could have been better. We ran low on toilet paper and had to purchase some extra. Also, the bed in the spare bedroom with the daybed was uncomfortable, and it appeared that the frame may have been damaged.Overall, we had a nice stay and appreciated how clean and beautiful the home was.

Hi Diana, thank you for taking time to write the nice review! I will make sure to let my cleaning personnel know to stock extra necessities. Also I will look into the daybed situation and get it fixed properly. Thank you for letting me know. Again, thank you for liking my home and I look forward to have you back in the future!

This was the 1st time doing this verses the hotel room stays. The hotel rooms are always dirty so I'd figured I could try something new. It was so much better and cleaner than the hotels. We enjoyed the little bit of time we stayed there. We will most definitely be staying there again. Thank you so much for your hospitality. It was a beautiful and amazing experience. I hope the extra hand in washing the towels for you guys helped a little. I also left a tip, it wasn't much, but it was something. Wish could have stayed longer, but we couldn't. Maybe next time. Again, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Beautiful Home

Lovely large home with great amenities both inside and out. Furnished comfortably with all the appliances needed. This home is close to shopping and food. Convenient for driving to the ballon festival or to ride share at the mall. Nice for a few or many, host was excellent. Would certainly stay again!

No cable TV though the owner brought over an antenna that helped. Minimal kitchen utensils and china (only 5 plates and three wine glasses). Minimal towels. Exterior very nice.

Hi Kenneth, I’m truly sorry that my house doesn’t offer cable TV and had not quite enough kitchen supplies for your stay. After you told me, I already placed brand new 40 pieces 8 seatings China in the kitchen and bought more towels. Like I said, you were my first guests since my long term renters moved out 2 days prior. Sorry for the imperfections. My guests satisfaction is always my top priority and I hope you can come back in the future if you’re ever in town.

We absolutely LOVED this house. I traveled with my two sisters to Albuquerque to visit the Balloon Fiesta. This house was so close to town but yet in a very quiet neighborhood. The backyard was relaxing and we could actually see the balloons in the air from the front courtyard each morning. The beds were so comfortable and we had almost everything that we needed right at our fingertips. I highly recommend this house to anyone visiting the area. Dani was available to answer my questions and was extremely easy to talk with. Thank you for sharing your home with us! We had an amazing time and made some special memories!

The house was great. Our family very much enjoyed it. A couple of thoughts:1. Instructions for how to use fireplace and outdoor grill. Since they are gas there was concern about mis-operation. So we were not able to enjoy those features2. Instructions for remote use. We were not sure about soundbar operation and managed to lose smart tv connection trying to figure out remotes.3. We would have preferred a little better/more kitchen/cookware option4. Right side closet in master bath had a really bad smell.

Hi Daniel, sorry that there were above things that didn’t quite meet your expectations during your stay. I didn’t have fireplace set up because it is a safety thing. I really don’t want any guests accidentally forget to turn it off, which could be catastrophic. I wish you could’ve asked me how to operate the sound bar or smart connection. I removed the sound bar now to minimize confusion. I can buy another set of pots and pans to better provide if I see more guests needs. Lastly, I’ll go check out the smell of the closet. Again, I thank you sincerely for choosing my home for your holiday stay!
