The listing is even nicer in person. The location is about perfect, we walked to the Plaza, Canyon Road and the Railyard District during our stay. Bret is an excellent host and has wonderful restaurant recommendations. We will definitely stay again for our next visit to Santa Fe. Our cocker spaniel also gives it a 5-star review.

This home was exactly what we wanted for our short stay in Santa Fe. The beds were very comfortable and the casita had everything we wanted and needed. Brett (the host) was so kind and welcoming and made sure we were well taken care of. He had lots of suggestions on places to visit while we were there. We also absolutely adored their sweet dog, Lucy. Can’t wait for our next visit! You will love your stay here.

Cozy Casita

Walking score gets a 10! The plaza, historic landmarks, art galleries, and boutiques just blocks away. This cozy casita is tastefully decorated with Southwestern touches - a truly charming guest house. The hosts are more than happy to give suggestions for restaurants and galleries- super friendly and courteous. We hope to return!

Hosts! House! Location!

Scroll no further in the Sante Fe listings. This is the place you’re looking for if you want:…convivial hosts who clearly love meeting new people and sharing insights into the delights of Sante Fe…a beautifully restored casita in an historic house with all mod cons and off street parking…a peaceful neighborhood within walking distance of the Plaza, Canyon Rd and the Railyard.We had a wonderful 4 day stay with Brett and Kirsten. Our only regret ? That we couldn’t stay longer. Sante Fe has so much to offer and this is the perfect base.

The space is lovely - it's a spacious casita that is within walking distance of the Santa Fe plaza and railyard. The casita included a king bed that is super comfortable, kitchen amenities for in-home cooking, a washer/dryer combo, and comfy living area. The bathroom has a separate sink that makes is incredibly convenient for individuals to have space for the vanity while someone can occupy the shower. The neighborhood is quaint and safe and home owners welcoming and warm.
