Casa Altamira - Gorgeous mountain views, deck, walk to the Plaza

During the Christmas/New Year holidays, we require a minimum 10-night stay.

Mountain vistas, open landscape, spacious and elegant interior…plus, only a short walk to the town center, The Plaza.

Located just two blocks behind Ft. Marcy Park in a private setting with incredible, unobstructed views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Casa Altamira is just a 15-minute walk to the famed Santa Fe Plaza. From here you are ready to explore “The City Different” with the mingling of Native American, Anglo, and Hispanic cultures. Shopping, galleries, museums, and restaurants abound.

Whether you are two or more, you will enjoy this pleasant and open three-bedroom, two-bath home decorated in popular Southwestern colors which complement the furniture, art, and architecture.

The living area and two bedrooms are on the main living level. Magnificent views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains can be seen from the living room, dining room, kitchen, and 2nd bedroom. The deck off the living/dining room gives you more unobstructed mountain views. From here you can enjoy the dry and sunny Santa Fe climate while sipping your morning coffee or afternoon Margarita!

The living room has a large flat-screen TV, a wood-burning kiva fireplace and a leather sofa and recliner. It is lined with bookcases full of books for your reading enjoyment. The open floor plan creates a large living space, with the dining room (seats six) adjoining the living room.

Cooking in the fully equipped kitchen with gas stove will be a delight. You have a mountain view from the kitchen window! There is also a dinette table with easy kitchen access.

There are two bedrooms on this main floor that share a full hall bath. The queen bedroom has its own private patio (also with mountain views) and small TV. The other bedroom has two twin beds.

Up a half flight of stairs is the king master suite, again with mountain views of the Sangre de Cristos, but also having a deck with southern views of the Sandia Mountains, a lovely place to watch the sunsets! This room also has a flat screen TV, as well as a large desk set up as an office area. The bath has two sinks and a beautifully tiled shower.

Full size washer/dryer and air conditioning are house amenities.

Of course, all linens, cable TV, and fast WIFI (150 mbps download and 12 mbps upload) are included, as well as a gas barbeque.

NOTE: There is only ONE space available in the garage, but additional parking is provided in the driveway for several cars.

This house is attached on one side to another home, but constructed with very thick walls. It is on a generous size lot. It is private. There are no homes situated to look in your windows or see you on the deck….yet, you are just a few minutes’ walk to the energy of the Plaza. DeVargas shopping plaza is also nearby. The closeness of Ft. Marcy Park has added benefits. There is an open area for dog-walking. (We welcome your dog, however NO CATS, please.) There are pickle ball courts, and the Ft. Marcy Community Center has an Olympic size pool, exercise equipment, and classes (yoga, Pilates), all for an extremely reasonable price.

Destino Santa Fe is a cooperative, private group of homeowners and we are proud to represent Casa Altamira.

NOTE: VRBO QUOTES ARE OFTEN INACCURATE. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN BOOKING THIS PROPERTY, PLEASE SEND AN "INQUIRY" PRIOR TO BOOKING.

Great house close to downtown

We loved our stay at Casa Altamira. The house is very well organized and very well appointed. The beds are all very comfortable and the kitchen is complete with everything you need for a comfortable visit. We had our Christmas there and our adult children loved the house as well. We would absolutely love to come stay again!

My family and I (7 folks) had a lovely stay through Christmas (2025) and New Year's (2026). The home is perferctly located - a mile walk to the Plaza, very close to a free bus to the ski basin and a walk to Fort Marcy for pickle ball and other recreational activities. Casa Altimara's views are magniificient, as described. The house is fully complete for entertaining and general living. Most notable is that it feels as if Casa Altimara is someone's private home.Communication with the host, Sue, was a breeze.

Cool home. Great location

We loved Altamira from the moment we entered the home. The views didn't disappoint. The pantry was generously stocked with cooking essentials. The home was full of natural light due to the large windows and sky lights. We loved the traditional Santa Fe style.

Perfect Location

This home was perfect for family time over the holidays. The views were amazing, the home was comfortable, and the kitchen well equipped for cooking a few meals.First time to stay in this area of Santa Fe. Marcy Park was a bonus for the tween and the dog. We took advantage of sunset walks to Fort Marcy and explorations into town. Pickleball would have been on the list but the courts were busy!Great stay.

This is a beautiful property in an excellent location. The decor and layout make it a comfortable and inviting space to come home to after a long day of wandering and exploring the city. The large deck with gorgeous views of the surrounding mountains is a great place to relax and recover. It feels like a private, quiet refuge but it’s just a few blocks from the center of the city. We hope to return soon.

Attractive and comfortable house

The house was large and spread out enough for five of us, including an active 3.5 year old, The location is super-quiet pretty much all day, and provides easy walking access to the Plaza area of Santa Fe...which was delightful at Christmas time. Sue Kimberly, the property manager, was very responsive to our inquiries.

Perfect Santa Fe House

The views from the windows were so gorgeous you didn’t want to leave the house. The house is high up enough to show changing views of the mountains surrounding it which was magical. It has everything you could possibly need and more. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen well equipped and everything worked. It was immaculately clean all over. We even used the garage which was a nice added feature. It was beautifully decorated in the SouthWestern style which is shown in the accurate pictures. Sue was a charm, great to help with anything and quick to respond. We were living in luxury, for sure. Our only problem was it was hard for us Southerners to adjust to the dry and high desert climate which is Santa Fe. The art there is worth every minute of your stay. They have fantastic restaurants there, too.

The Right Place

We can highly recommend Casa Altamira. The house is not large but the open concept makes the living area feel spacious and is comfortable for two couples, or one couple and kids. The living room has a working fireplace, the master suite is large and private, and the kitchen is small but well-designed and contains all the equipment necessary for serious cooking. The location is great. In particular, the plaza is 20 to 25 minutes and Fort Marcy Park is a mere five minutes away by foot. In addition, the surroundings are quiet. All in all, we were very comfortable, and so were our guests. Our only criticism is that the entertainment system was a challenge to operate given its numerous remote controls. The house and its location are also great for dogs. There is a small fenced area next to the house where dogs can relieve themselves, and Fort Marcy Park is a good place to walk dogs and has a large grassy area where one can play ball (dogs are supposed to be leashed, albeit the rule seems to be flexible). There is also the Frank Ortiz Dog Park, a tract of a 100 acres or so where dogs can be off-leach and play with each other. The park is a 10 minute drive from Casa Altamira.
