The house was beautiful with great views of Santa Fe and the mountains while only about 5 minutes from downtown. Our only issues were the dishwasher and washing machines which required repair.
Beautiful home in the foothills with stunning views of sunsets over Sante Fe. The home had traditional Sante Fe details along with gorgeous southwest art throughout. The outside landscaping was lovely as well and we enjoyed the covered back patio for all our meals.Moonstar felt very private and safe yet so close to everything the area has to offer.We highly recommend this VRBO.

Thank you for sharing such thoughtful feedback and for recommending the property. We are very glad you enjoyed the home’s design, artwork, and outdoor spaces, as well as the convenient yet private location. Your comments mean a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you back on a future visit.
This is a great property with a lot of potential. The roof deck is the main attraction. What a view! There was nothing better than enjoying coffee in the morning and watching the sun rise over the valley. The house does need work. It’s currently for sale and hopefully the new owners will invest in the needed upgrades.

Super cool property - it felt like we were staying in an art gallery. The house is older but well maintained. Very quiet neighborhood with beautiful rooftop views of Santa Fe. Close to downtown as well.

Our stay was lovely. Homey, spacious, beautiful property and views. Super easy access to SF.Well furnished kitchen. Great kivas.Note: Door from kitchen to outdoor patio needs repair. It auto-locks from the outside, even when set to be unlocked.

Thank you for sharing such positive feedback about your stay and the property. We are glad you enjoyed the space, views, and kitchen. We are sorry about the issue with the kitchen door to the patio and understand how inconvenient that can be. We will look into the door lock so we can better understand what is happening.
We recently rented this house for a sibling reunion. We had two major concerns about this rental. The first was the condition of the property, and secondly the management making a price adjustment contingent upon a non disclosure agreement.The property is run down, dirty, and smelled terribly. Mildew throughout the house, dishwasher, washer, dryer left terrible odors. The furniture is run down, covers on the furniture stained.The staircase to the roof patio was not safe for older adults with balance issues. The staircase is in great need of repair. We left the property early and rented hotel rooms.We expected the management company to do the right thing and refund the cleaning fee that we paid and make an offer of restitution for rental fees since we left early.The property management after seeing pictures of the condition of the house, offered us less than the cleaning fee if we signed a non disclosure statement. We declined the offer.This home could be spectacular with the proper cleaning and updates, our experience with the home and management company was totally unsatisfactory.
Thank you so much for the kind review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the panoramic deck and the Santa Fe-inspired decor. Your feedback is greatly appreciated, as it helps us continue providing our guests with a memorable experience. We look forward to welcoming you back soon.
House was just right for our friends weekend. Plenty of places to gather for conversation, including the rooftop deck with spectacular views

Our family had a wonderful stay at Moonstar... close enough to everything to be convenient, but just far enough out that we could enjoy relaxing in the peace and quiet.
House was clean and roomy. Decor was good. Good location. Views from rooftop were beautiful.
We could have used more wine glasses and more coffee cups.
Physical keys and 1 gate opener that you have to pickup and drop off at the management property is a bit of a hassle especially with a larger group. All around though it was a nice place to stay.

Only one small issue was the wifi. We had some difficulty with login, but resolved without contacting management. Had a great fire in the fireplace each night. Wife loved the large bathtub. It's a great place for our 7 that we brought. With 4 bedrooms and 3 baths, everyone had plenty of space. The view from the roof was fantastic.

Thank you for your review. We're happy you had a fantastic time with us!
Thanks for your trust, we're thankful for amazing customers like you.
We hope to see you again soon!
We stayed several nights. The house is a great size and layout. The rooftop terrace is amazing. We watched the sunset every night. We would stay again. There is an “old house” smell when you first come in but we just opened the windows to air it out. The only issue we had was the spotty internet. Not a big deal unless you have to work.
Overall, a great experience.
This home is signature Santa Fe—anadobe with tile and brick floors, big as throughout, with lots of Southwest art and decor. All the necessary amenities were provided.
The only disappointments were that the blinds had no cords to let in the beautiful SF light and the dishwasher wasn’t fixed after being told a plumber would be sent. The fans and window ac units were very much appreciated and took care of kate aftrn heat before it gets cool in the evenings. All in all, would stay at this property again.

August stay at Moonstar
This is a very lovely home, but unfortunately, does need some minor repairs and updating. The bedrooms and living areas are all well appointed. The home is NOT air conditioned - important for those considering a summer stay. The management company did bring in portable AC units, which made sleeping more comfortable, but the living areas could be warm in the afternoons. The roof deck is GORGEOUS at night to sit, enjoy a drink, and chat with friends. The only other drawback was a little rodent visitor, but all in all, a nice stay.

Good if you know what to expect
This is the second year we have stayed in this property, and while it is clean, it needs some TLC. For instance one of the kitchen cabinets has a hair band to keep it closed. I had to buy wine glasses. The kitchen needs organization for sure. Things are feeling a bit shabby, in what has been basically a good place to stay.
