So Close! Perfect Southwest Casita 3 Blocks Plaza, 2 to O'Keeffe - Casita Ristra

Note: Once reserved, Owner will directly email Guest full details for your stay. You will receive a text from 505.989.1088 to notify you to check your email.

Casita Ristra is a freestanding house artfully created to give one couple or single that perfect luxury downtown Santa Fe living experience. Read my reviews, please, as even my great photos don't quite show how exceptional - inviting and peaceful - the feeling in the casita truly is! You will love the sense of how much care has been put into making this your favorite place to retreat, while being minutes from everything!

Quiet and hidden behind a unique locked double gate, Casita Ristra is only three short blocks from the historic Santa Fe Plaza, two blocks from the Georgia O’Keeffe museum and one from the Santa Fe Convention Center. The Guadalupe Railyard District is also only a few blocks away and a pleasant walk to famous Canyon Road along the Alameda River Walk.

Sunny with high ceilings, hand-carved beams in every room, numerous skylights and historic-style divided-light windows. Colorful Southwest rugs and color scheme warm and brighten the spirit. Feel at home in every way!

You have a private coyote-fenced flagstone patio in the front courtyard perfect for coffee or charcoal-grill barbecue at the umbrella table seating 4 (for your old or new friends!) and a covered pergola patio off the master so you can relax in the Summer shade or watch the snowfall in Winter.

King bed, large airy bedroom, fine linens, soft pillows, ironed pillowcase, a top-quality mattress, 32" Smart HD flatscreen TV and Preferred Cable. The living room also has an extra-large Smart HD flatscreen TV and Preferred Cable and a real wood burning traditional kiva fireplace (with complimentary first-fire fragrant pinon firewood set-up).

The kitchen is fully and thoughtfully equipped with added conveniences, a gas stove, double-door stainless refrigerator (filtered water and ice), microwave, and handsome tableware.

The bathroom has oodles of cabinet storage and a terrific custom-tiled shower (with grab bar) and washer/dryer for your use.

Other amenities include "real" refrigerated central air-conditioning and forced air heating system, free super-high-speed wireless internet, great closet space with lots of hangers, full-length mirror, luggage racks and extra blankets, overhead fans, extra table fan, humidifier, yoga mat.

We clean the casita ourselves, so it is CLEAN (read: pristine) and everything works!

Ask about combining this casita with others nearby for your friends or relatives. Or for my assistance in your real estate interests - I am a New Mexico licensed Santa Fe Realtor, devoted to my clients!

We did not do the winery tour but I gave it 5* because I didn't want to hurt the rating. This was the nicest vrbo we have ever had and will stay there again if we return. Victoria excells in every aspect as a host. Having a laundry and fireplace was definitely a plus. It was so centrally located to everything we wanted to see and perfect for walkers.

Ideal for Santa Fe tourism

This spacious, attractive, well-equipped, spotless, quiet casita is a short stroll to all the main tourist attractions downtown as well as having easy access by car to the best hiking areas and the opera. The host has provided good guidance to area restaurants and is very responsive to guests’ needs (although there won’t be many she hasn’t anticipated).

Santa Fe Home Away from Home

After having to move away from Santa Fe last year, we needed a week away from our Denver home during a kitchen remodel. This casita was beyond our expectations. The location is perfect if you want to be near the plaza, the furnishings were tasteful, the accommodation spotless and we really enjoyed using both patios. We're already discussing our next trip so we can book it again.

The house was great. It was well stocked, clean and spacious for my wife and I. It was fenced in for privacy and could sit outside and relax and eat as had nice outdoor patios. The location was great. We were able to walk almost everywhere we wanted to go in town with the supermarket and Whole Foods only short drives. The owner was great. She provided us with all the information we needed for our stay and was very accessible and helpful with lots of recommendations for restaurants. When we go back to Santa Fe will definitely try to stay there again. It couldn’t have been better

About the host

Hosted by Victoria Rogers

Host profile image
I truly enjoy sharing this beautiful casita and the downtown Santa Fe lifestyle with the many wonderful new and return guests who choose Casita Ristra. I’m a retired RN and massage therapist of more than 20 years, museum-collected photographer and conscientious very active NM Real Estate Broker in Santa Fe and Albuquerque! Bringing care and quality to every guest's experience is my goal. I was enchanted by New Mexico in 1979 and since then, I've had an artist's romance with the landscape and the culture. My collaborative book "Santa Fe's Historic McKenzie Neighborhood" was published with history and original artwork of the architecture of the area where the casita is located! I offer private showings of my museum-collected fine art portfolio at the casita. You are invited to receive special tips on what Santa Fe has to offer (from a local), for short-term or longterm visits or life change (happy to show you around and give you insight into Santa Fe's real estate market). I'm friendly and available as needed, but you have your complete privacy during your stay at your home-away-from-home.

Why they chose this property

Having created and managed a number of my own vacation rentals in this wonderful historic neighborhood since 2007, I am delighted to be giving all my attention now to the premium comfortable and ideally located Casita Ristra to bring the best of all experiences to visitors to Santa Fe.

What makes this property unique

- FANTASTIC LOCATION! 3 blocks to the Plaza, 2 blocks to O'Keeffe Museum, restaurants and also equidistant to the Guadalupe Railyard District, plus a pleasant stroll to famed Canyon Road galleries. Great starting place for walking to day and evening events.
- Excellent parking (1 dedicated space off-street space right out front) set back from the street
- Complete privacy in lovely landscaped high-fenced ("coyote" fencing) fully enclosed wrap-around patio with comfortable outdoor furnishings
- Well-appointed kitchen
- Living room and Bedroom Smart HD TVs
- Pets (up to 2 well-behaved and supervised dogs) welcome with use of patio only for relaxation
