Wonderful Spot for Family Reunion

9 adults and 3 children travelled far and wide for a reunion in Santa Fe. Casa Bonita was the PERFECT house! Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, lots of open space for kids to play, many conversation areas for the adults to spread out. We had a wonderful visit.

My siblings and their spouses and I (group of 8) stayed in this beautiful home for a week while we explored the area and the house fit our needs perfectly. We enjoyed cooking in the well-stocked kitchen, hanging out in the spacious and comfortable living room, and playing ping pong and hot tubbing after dinner. The location is perfect - an easy 20 minute walk to the main square and close to all the galleries on Canyon Drive. We particularly loved the upscale restaurant Geronimo and recommend it to other travelers! (You need reservations for sure!) The house has beautiful art and is nicely laid out- offering privacy and quiet for the bedrooms and plenty of outdoor space to relax. Check in was easy and the cleaners were super friendly. Thanks for a great stay!

Great Stay

Our stay in Santa Fe was short but sweet. The house is beautiful and spacious. The living room and kitchen are open so that there is room for everyone to hang out together comfortably. It is an easy walk to the Cathedral Basilica and all the shops and restaurants in that area.

Perfectly Located, Roomy and Well Cared for Home

The home is in the heart of it all for a visit to Santa Fe. The home is well cared for and owned by the same family for many decades. Lots of space for family fun and the kitchen is as well appointed and equipped as any we've stayed in. If the opportunity presents itself, we'd stay here again for sure.

Beautiful home, perfect for a family gathering

We treated our family to a Santa Fe Ski vacation and everyone had a great time. The location was ideal to get to not only the ski resort but also walking to the historic area of this lovely town and a short drive to a lovely spa. The highlight of our trip was relaxing in this comfortable home in the evenings and sharing the fun of the day. Highly recommend it!

Great house!

We were a group of four couples, and really enjoyed our stay at Casa Bonita. The house is very well-equipped and comfortable. We spent most of our time in the courtyard area, which was private and fabulous. Our only (very minor) complaint was that the air conditioner was very loud and could not be turned off, despite really cool nighttime temps.

Perfect place for our family vacation.

Our family vacation back home to New Mexico was made significantly better by our stay at Casa Bonita. This home is everything you'd want to top off a Santa Fe vacation. Our family of 10 (ages 3 -62) thoroughly enjoyed everything about our stay. The homeowners are fabulous to work with and personally called us to ensure our stay was going well. The local property manager (Poncho) was there on the first day to ensure we had what we needed. The property is close by art & history museums, fabulous eateries and shops galore. Thank you to Bonnie and Doug for opening this home for us to enjoy.

Beautiful home in a great location

We had a wonderful girls' weekend in Casa Bonita, which is a beautiful house, with great artwork and furnishings! The location was perfect. It was an easy walk to the Plaza and we also enjoyed walking along the river to the Railyard, for the Saturday morning Farmer's Market. Since we were such a large group, we cooked most of our meals there and appreciated how well supplied the kitchen was! The outdoor grill was awesome! The VRBO description is very accurate and we would highly recommend this property. Thank you so much Bonnie and Doug!!

Fun time in Santa Fe

We had a nice time at this home in Santa Fe. The great room and kitchen were large, so we could all be together and play cards, games, eat meals or watch tv. It is a historic home, so the bedrooms and bathrooms are on the smaller side. The beds were comfortable, and the bathrooms had everything that you needed, including shampoo, conditioner and soap. The kitchen was fully stocked and we cooked several meals there. A clarification on the listing - there are 5 bedrooms. In the great room there are two couches, where one folds out to a bed.

Bonita is a registered assistant. She grew up in Santa Fe and we love the ambience of the city. It is the second oldest city in the United States and was the capital of the Spanish South West. It was started in the Early 1600's.

Why they chose this property

Bonita grew up in this home! We completed a $700,000 remodel several years ago and Casa Bonita is beautiful! This is one of the largest officially permitted rental homes in the Historic District of Santa Fe and the closest to the famous Plaza!

What makes this property unique

Location, Location, Location and everything is new! We are one of the only 5 bedroom, 4 bath rental homes in the historic district and only an 8 - 10 minute walk from the famous Plaza and Canyon Road. Everything is new and we have the best location in Santa Fe!! We are on famous Palace Ave! If you walk down Palace Ave. you enter the famous Plaza after a short walk. This is the center of Santa Fe and where the wagon trains would end their journey after months of travel from Missouri and Kansas on the Santa Fe Trail. This occurred from 1821 to around 1880 when the Santa Fe Rail Road reached the out skirts of Santa Fe at the town of Lamy.

Casa Bonita is only 20 - 30 minutes from the Santa Ski Basin! Great skiing from Thanksgiving until the middle of April!
