Very well equipped and we loved the kiva fireplace too! Lots of space & comfortable bed. Location was PERFECT for so many walks to and around Old Town. Close to a park. Wish we’d be around for the garden in patio areas! A GEM -we loved experiencing a casita- and our conversations with host who lived in our Minneapolis neighborhood for years!!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at La Perla. The cottage was perfect for 2 - super clean and well stocked. We used the washer/dryer and appreciated the available supplies. The water bottles in the fridge were very much appreciated too. Rob and Aggie were excellent hosts. Don't miss the breakfast tacos at Central Grill!

Lovely place to stay

The property was clean and had everything I needed. Rob was very helpful and Agatha the Labrador was lovely and friendly. Location was perfect if you want to visit the Old Town Plaza. It was also close to a bus line if you want to use them. Recommend Church Street Cafe and Little Anita’s to eat. Noisy Water Winery had lovely wine and nice food.

Great location in Old Town Albuquerque. Walking distance to everything. Casita is perfect for a couple with nice living room, stocked kitchen and bedroom. Shower is small but workable. Great outdoor space, great host, and enjoyed having Agatha around.

A gem

My delightful home away from home for a week. The location can't be beat. Well equipped with the latest appliances and electronics, with plenty of tabletop & desk space & seating. Lovely patio. The shower was alright although just big enough to stand in. Nice folks & friendly dog. Arlene, the property manager, was quick to help whenever I texted her. Next time I'm in Albuquerque, this will be my first choice.

Fabulous Casita in Old town

The location of this spacious Casita is great….walking distance to everything in Old Town! I’ve stayed in a lot of VRBO’s and I have to say that this is very well stocked with all you could need, they have thought of everything! The patio area is large with many places to sit and tables to eat at or to have your morning coffee. I highly recommend you stay here. You will not be disappointed.

Great place to stay in ABQ

Great location, steps away from Old Town, Albuquerque Museum of Art and History, etc. Good onsite parking. Owner and manager both very responsive and helpful. Casita itself is very nice. Spacious bedroom with en suite bathroom, well stocked kitchen, small but adequate living room. Lovely patio. Owner's dog Agatha is large but very old and very gentle--just wants to say hello, get a pat, then go back to sleep. Only caveat is that the shower stall is quite small, roughly 3' square. Overall, we had a lovely time here during our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Arlene Cervantes

Host profile image
The Rispoli family are the proud owners of La Perla in Old Town. Having traveled a great deal , they know how important the little things can be and take delight in providing a "home away from home" for our visitors from around the world. Rob spent decades providing mortgage services to families throughout the U.S. These days you're most likely to find him working or hanging out in the courtyard he lovingly cares for. As only the third owners in one hundred years, we are committed stewards to this special historic property for all to enjoy...The Rispoli Family

Why they chose this property

The Rispoli family moved a great deal and while Tempe, Arizona was our base we lived in Palo Alto, CA, Minneapolis, Durango, CO, Greenville, SC AND Albuquerque. As Tempe and the Phoenix area grew, we decided it was the right time to relocate to a smaller city and a less stressful lifestyle. One day, while on a business trip to Albuquerque, Rob noticed a for sale sign being pounded into the ground in front of a just-renovated Old Town property. He stopped, greeted the owner, went inside, called Phyllis and the rest as they say is history! We love our property and want you to feel as comfortable and relaxed as we do everyday when we greet the day. Come stay with us and enjoy the very best of our town in old town...!

What makes this property unique

You can park your car and walk from La Perla to the Old Town Plaza, 3 museums District, and the Sawmill Marketplace. It's only a 2-3 minute walk (really) to Tiguex Park, or the Old Town Plaza with its 200 year-old church, gazebo, restaurants and shopping. You'll find amazing SW and Native American jewelry. Caution: If the prices and too good to be true, that's a tipoff that it's probably not authentic!

Our guest book lists favorite New Mexican restaurants, local cafes, and fine dining. The Sawmill Marketplace is a very cool food hall with 20+ vendors and lots of outdoor dining in the warmer months.

The Summer months offer live music venues around the Old Town neighborhood. We are one mile from the Bio-Park's Aquarium and Botanical Gardens. Only an hour's drive to Santa Fe, you can also hop on the 'Railrunner' in downtown and enjoy a leisurely trip at a reasonable price.
