Short Albuquerque Family Visit

Our family of 5 grown ups enjoyed the majestic views and exceptionally well appointed New Mexico home on the bluff of the Rio Grande River. Hot air ballons and amazing sunrises greeted us each morning. The host was highly attentive, including leaving a sympathy note upon our arrival (we were in town for my father's funeral). Excellent place to stay in Alb.

Experienced host and tasteful home

Very nice home. We enjoyed the creek view mornings. We cook all our food and kitchen was well appointed. Special thanks to Magdalena for honoring our request ahead of time to use hypoallergenic and fragrance free laundry soap on linens and bath towels. It made the difference between a relaxing stay or uncomfortable one. Ditto on accurate posts here. We asked for garage space for our car and covering of indoor camera. All were done ✅. I would stay here again if this city is on our travels. Two things out of her control; cigar smoker neighbor and highway traffic noise when outside. Indoor noise was not noticeable.

We loved the house and the backyard. We came for the Balloon Fiesta and could see them launch from the backyard. The house was perfectly clean and loaded with amenities, even a outside refrigerator with tons of drinks. If we ever are in Albuquerque again, we would definitley check to see if this place is available without hesitation.

Amazing View and Comfort Too!

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The view was just as promised, the location was convenient for us and the house was easy to find. The home was quite clean, very well provisioned, and decorated outside for the holidays as an added surprise! Plenty of space and very comfortable. Not "just a rental" - it's a lovely home. We hope to stay again sometime.

Amazing Dream Property

This property was the best we have ever stayed at. The host was great, the house was better than a model home, the back yard was jaw dropping, voice activated lights and entertainment, and the refreshment refrigerator was over the top (a store quality glass front Coke cooler). Free beverages of course. State of the art everything. This is a dream property.

Great VRBO!

We stay in 5+ VRBO’s every year, and this one should be on your list. It’s exactly as advertised, beds/linens/furniture is in good condition, comfortable and clean! 3 full baths. Garage parking. Homeowner had decorated for Halloween which was a treat. Outdoor areas do have traffic noise from the interstate but the house is quiet and restful inside. Views are lovely.
