Entry instructions could use some updating. Also, was told we could park in the garage but it was full of furniture. Outside wasn't raked or mowed but it was too chilly to spend much time outside anyway. House was clean and comfortable and the location was great. Really enjoyed the fireplace! Lots of room and full of charm.

Everything was as advertised. Enjoyable experience. Only negative was finding the correct house in the dark. Minor issue and we accept the blame for that.

Ellie’s was a terrific spot, and our stay in Sept 2025 for 3 nights was excellent. The house was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was stocked thoughtfully with everything we needed for cooking (we cooked breakfast in the house but ate at yummy restaurants otherwise). The bathrooms are cozy. Washer and dryer worked fine. Great quiet neighborhood. We parked right outside the house and hardly needed the car because we walked most everywhere. Cute upscale grocery just a few blocks away. Excellent communication with the host, who quickly responded when I requested a slightly early check-in. An excellent stay!

Beautiful stay in Santa Fe

We booked this stay for the Indian Market and it was the absolutely perfect property for that! Walking distance to the Plaza and completely quiet, the perfect sanctuary after a busy day at market. This house works perfectly for a group of friends and we felt like it was our home away from home. The host was great at communicating and we had a wonderful stay.

True gem in Santa Fe

We stayed at Ellie’s for two weeks and had a wonderful time. The location is perfect—walking distance from both downtown and the rail yard. The house is beautiful, with lovely outdoor space. The kitchen is well equipped and a joy to cook in. Plenty of room for us, with three adults and two kids. The beds were really comfortable. We had to work while we were there and the Internet was excellent, with lots of different spaces to work from. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

Can we give more stars?

Can say enough good things about this property. Clean, charming, supplies and amenities are all superlative. We had 3 couples in our group and the size was perfect for spending time together, but gave us our own space when we needed it. We all loved that we were walking distance from so much to do!

Delightful Experience at Ellie's Buena Vista

Ellie's Buena Vista is a lovely property with ample space to spread out and three outside areas to relax and enjoy the outdoors. It is within walking or bicycling distance of the square and other major conveniences. It was a wonderful home away from home and we hated to leave.

About the host

Hosted by Reina A. Romero

Host profile image
Natives of Santa Fe, Reina Roybal Romero and Michael Roybal are siblings who grew up in the family home, 210 E. Buena Vista. Both attended Wood Gormley and Harrington Jr. High, neighborhood schools. Michael lives in Santa Fe and Reina lives part-time in Santa Fe and in Albuquerque with husband, James.
Ellie is the matriarch of the family and the house is named in her honor.

Why they chose this property

This house was at one time Reese Cradle Home a birthing center which accommodated the many baby boomers born in Santa Fe in the late 1940's and early 1950's.
Ellie's Buena Vista is a beautiful and historic family home.

What makes this property unique

We are thrilled to welcome guests to 210 and hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
A very special attraction is the beautiful mountain views from the living room windows and front patio. Close to the historic plaza via the Old Santa Fe Trail and to the Santa Fe Railyard, there are many wonderful restaurants and attractions within walking distance. The majestic Cathedral Basilica is close by and visitors will hear the tolling of bells calling worshippers to services. Hungry for delicious food? Walk to popular eateries for pizza, New Mexican food, chile burgers, or some very fine dining. History buffs will enjoy the many museums and historic sites as they walk downtown including our state capitol building. Need groceries? Visitors will appreciate the nearby local grocery (known to be frequented by famous actors) which has been a Santa Fe staple for years. Art lovers will enjoy the many galleries along Canyon Road which is an easy walk from 210. Santa Fe has a huge grower's market offering wonderful selections of home-grown products including our famous chile. Drive to the Sangre de Cristos for spectacular views including golden aspen trees changing color in the fall. This is a lovely and easy drive whether you're skiing on a wonderful hike or enjoying a picnic in the mountains. We are certain you'll find Ellie's Buena Vista an enchanting and special place!
