Great Stay

In Aztec on business for 4 days. Didn't spend a lot of time in the house but it was very comfortable for a couple of hours in the evenings and for sleeping. Location is great as it is close to the Safeway/ Starbucks and also 3 blocks to the best restaurant in town.

Gem in a great little town!

We felt so lucky to have found this place. It is very nicely decorated and set up, cozy and homey. We were actually sad to leave it!! Everything you can imagine wanting or needing is there-from kitchen staples to really nice shampoo and body wash! I will absolutely be staying here again, in fact I cant wait!!

A perfect little place!

We loved this little house so much last year that we reserved it a year ahead! We will reserve early again because it’s such a pleasure to stay in this little house. The hostess Kyla is easy to communicate with also! Thank you Kyla!

Charming

This was a great weekend getaway for my husband and I! Super cute house close to lots of ruins. And the host was a wonderful communicator and very sweetly left us a nice bottle of wine. Would absolutely stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Kyla Jenkinson

My husband Steve and I purchased “Azteca Amor” in September of 2021 after looking for over a year for the perfect property to create as a vacation rental in the Aztec area. We live just north of the border in Colorado. We love exploring New Mexico with our family. If you have not yet had the opportunity we think you are going to love it too!

Steve is a builder by trade and I am a photographer. This house has been a fun project for me. Every piece of furniture has a story. I am a big fan of color and comfort. I put a lot of effort into bringing both those elements into this house to make it a cozy place for anyone to relax and enjoy.

Why they chose this property

This is a quiet, relaxing neighborhood to chill out in. It is in the heart of Aztec. I enjoy walking around the neighborhood in the morning and evenings. Everything you need is nearby. Because you are right down town, this house is central to all kinds of exploring. Day adventures for fishing (Navajo Lake and Animas river), culture (Aztec National Ruins), hiking and biking (Alien trail) and four-wheeling (Dunes Recreational area) are all near by.

Gatherings are welcome but because it is in a residential community “partying” is not acceptable. Please be respectful of our neighbors. There is a casita on the back of the property lot that is a full-time rental. The backyard divides the two houses. The casita has a separate private entrance, so as not to disturb any vacationers during their stay and vice versa.

What makes this property unique

You can walk to whatever you need in the way of groceries, food and even entertainment. This house is located one block from the main street of Aztec. Driving is easy to navigate. Aztec is a mellow community and easy to find your way around.

You are also close to a lot of other fantastic areas: 40 minutes to the Mountain town of Durango, 1 hour and 15 minutes to Mesa Verde, 25 minutes Navijo Lake State Park, 30 minutes to the wine of the San Juans vineyard, 16 minutes to Tico Time river and festival resort.
