We were in town for a baseball tournament and this house was perfect. We had 6 adults and 6 kids and the house for us comfortably. The kids loved the game room and had fun sleeping in the bunk room. The kitchen and common area was so large and made it easy to hang out and cook. The views from the deck were spectacular and we enjoyed sitting outside in the evening. The hot tub was a bonus! Communication with the owners was fast and he was very helpful and friendly. Completely recommend this house to others.
Great location and adequate accommodations! A little TLC could be used in some areas…stained carpets, dirty windows some flooring issues. We were a group of 8 and could have used more towels. The location and moonrise views are the best asset to this property!
We were very comfortable in this house. The pool was great and we felt safe and had privacy with great views! The house itself is gorgeous and has huge windows with plenty of views from inside as well. I highly recommend!
beautiful place, great views! house was clean which is one of the most important thing we look for in a rental. i love the location which is close to many stores for our convenience. we had a great time in the pool especially the kids, they just loved it!
This home overlooks the Rio Grande and you can see a slice of the water through the surrounding trees; truly amazing views from the upper and middle levels. Another big hit was the game room. The family room had a great setup and everyone loved the comfy couch. Host provided a well-equiped kitchen including a variety of serving bowls that displayed lavish breakfast buffets very well. Only consistent downside was the condition of the pool -- a ton of material at the bottom and not very clear. Lastly, some security concerns with the number of cameras surrounding the property, a large dog loose within the complex (we never saw the dog leave the neighbor's house but there was no leash), and a coyote visible in the early morning about 75 yards from the downstairs door. Overall, it was a great deal for the price, and the host was responsive and attentive; they really seem to be making consistent updates on the house. Also, that view.
We had such a wonderful stay at this property! We were a small group of only 5 but this place can accommodate up to 12 people without an adult issue. The pool and game room were so much fun! Can’t say enough about the gorgeous view and the privacy that you get. Highly recommended!
We enjoyed our stay. Everything was as good or better than pictured. The pool was surprisingly cold. It is located near just about everything we wanted to do. The house was big enough it absorbed our 10 people. The views were fantastic.
An absolutely stunning home with an incredible view. Stayed with a group of friends and we were able to enjoy the hot tub and listening to music at a moderate volume without any noise complaints. Close proximity to everything awesome in Albuquerque as well. Host was super responsive and everything was clean and stocked.
View from living room, expansive kitchen and deck were fabulous! Never tired of looking at it. We had some cleanliness and maintenance issues which the owner said would be addressed shortly after our departure. The Master bedroom and bath upstairs are lovely, which also has a lovely view. Carlos was a responsive host and answered us quickly. FYI: Downstairs there are 3 bedrooms, one of which is a “kids” room with two bunkbeds and sleeps 6, the lower bunkbeds are full size. However there is only one full bathroom for 10 people if all beds are full. There are two full bathrooms upstairs. The house is located in a private enclave with only a few houses and is very quiet and peaceful.
Property exceed expectations for living space and convenience to multiple points of interest. Will be the first place we attempt to stay if we visit NM again.
Views of Sandia Mountain and setting are amazing at this property. We saw many hot air balloon every morning, which was a magical way to start the day. Kids enjoyed the game room and while we stayed in the winter time, the pool looked like a lot of fun.
Communication with Carlos was great, he was able to resolve issues and offer recommendations very quickly.
This house was great for our family gathering of 11. The upstairs is very updated and the game room was a lot of fun. Carlos was very responsive to any questions or issues. Location was great, close to old town, downtown, Petroglyphs and major highway. The views were some of the best in the city.
Enjoyed our stay and will definitely rent again if we are back in Albuquerque.
The house had everything a family can possibly need. Everyone had a great time. The hosts were nice and kind. They always responded to our messages promptly and in a polite manner. Highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Albuquerque.
This was a nice house overall. We enjoyed our stay very much. I think the house could have used a little more supplies, but that is typical of most rentals.
The house was exactly as advertised, but still exceeded our expectations. It had everything we needed and was a great location for all of our activities during our trip. Carlos was proactive in his communications and was always quick to respond. We would highly recommend!
