Sandia Heights Getaway_VIEWS, UPSCALE, 3BR

NEW LISTING..We now offer two superb options for your stay in Albuquerque. Please see listing Sandia Heights Getaway vrbo # 276702 or vrbo #829002. These properties are right next door to one another if you need to rent both for larger groups contact owner.
Nestled in the foothills of the Sandia Mountains this newly remodeled home is the perfect location for your stay in Albuquerque.There is nothing in this home that is not BRAND NEW! Unbelievable views of the mountain can be seen from the wall of windows adjacent to the living room and dining room.
Located just off Tramway Blvd and Paseo Del Norte this home provides easy access to the many nearby sites. The 'World's Longest Tram' is basically in your backyard. Enjoy a spectacular ride to the top of the mountain where a day of skiing or hiking awaits you or just take a ride to enjoy a fine dining experience at High Finance Restaurant. If you are wanting a more casual dining experience, I recommend the Mexican restaurant at the base of the tram which offers a spectacular view from the patio. Enjoy a mango margarita while viewing a spectacular New Mexico sunset.

If you are feeling lucky only a few more minutes down the hill you will find Sandia Resort and Casino offers the largest gaming facility in the state. The resort features a top rated golf course, spa facilities, restaurants, live entertainment and dancing. Don't forget to check out the buffalo that you can see from the road on the way down.

If you are wanting to get some exercise mountain bikes are available upon request. The bike trail is only a minute away. Don't be surprised if you pass some quail or 'beep-beep' there goes a road runner.

Forgot some essentials? A new CVS pharmacy is two minutes away. Other close by shopping includes Alberston's, Trader Joes, Barnes and Nobles, Target, and Kohls.

Once your day is complete you can relax in contemporary southwestern flair. Our home provides a spacious living area with hardwood floors and high ceilings that feature famous New Mexico artist's work.

A 65'' and 50'' flat screen LCD in both the master bedroom and living room with Direct TV. Wireless internet for your laptop is available also.
The gourmet kitchen features stainless steel appliances with a top quality kitchenware to prepare meals that can be enjoyed at the bar or at the gorgeous dining room table that can seat up to 6 people.

This home is the perfect retreat with large backyard with waterfall and pond. Fully fenced and private courtyard entrance provides plenty of room.

Fantastic, Private Escape

We had an amazing time at this property. It had everything thing we needed, and the views were awesome. The backyard was an oasis, and we spent far more time outdoors than in. In fact, we already booked our next stay. Highly recommend! I

Home was clean, spacious, quiet and very comfortable. Beautiful view of the Sandia mountains! Host was very attentive, made sure we were comfortable and responded to any questions quickly. We all were very satisfied with our stay.

Beautiful mountain views

This home is located in a quiet neighborhood near many amenities, parks, and walking paths. The views of the Sandia mountains are extraordinary. The home is cozy and clean, with an open living area that has lots of natural light and allows for the beautiful landscape views. Check-in and out was easy and the property manager was accommodating and provided great communication. Would love to stay here again!

Great Unit and Responsive Host

A well appointed unit with a great view of the mountains. We spent three nights and chose this location because of its close proximity to family. It did not disappoint. The Host was incredibly responsive when we identified a couple of maintenance issues that were resolved the same day. We definitely would consider staying here again.

Short and sweet visit

We were happy to have this nice home as an option to stay in rather than a hotel for our short visit to see family in ABQ. The owner reached out to ensure we had what we needed. The home was very clean, and comfortable. The outdoor garden was a nice place to enjoy our coffee in the morning. Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect home and location for our family!

We loved our stay and will be back again! The location off Tramway can’t be beat and the mountain views from the living room are breathtaking. The home was very comfy, clean, and well-stocked in the kitchen for cooking or entertaining. It’s hard to find really nice homes like this that welcome dogs. The fenced yard is perfect for pups!

Just Perfect

We thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay. The rental is newly furnished, the beds are comfortable, the views of the Sandia’s are amazing, it is quiet and our dog loved the backyard. The pantry is well stocked with essentials for making meals but you can also walk or bike to breweries. Want come back already!

Everything Was Perfect, As Usual!

We love staying in this beautiful home and this latest visit was no exception. Everything was perfect, as usual. It's in a perfect setting with beautiful views of the mountains and it feels secluded though it's only a few minutes from everything in the city. We especially enjoy the comfortable living room and luxurious bed and bath linen. Christine is a wonderful host; we plan to return again and again.

Soccer tournament

Our family enjoyed our stay for a long weekend. For us the location in the northeast corner of Albuquerque was very good since we spent most of our days at the soccer fields in Bernalillo. There were shops and restaurants 8-10 minutes away from the house. Quiet neighborhood, near walking and hiking/biking trails. Thanks for being dog friendly.

A Great Location

This was the perfect choice for our Christmas vacation. The unit was nice and the views of the Sandra mountains were spectacular. There was one issue with the unit, but the owner made us aware of the problem before we checked in and offered us a discount as compensation. Overall the owner was very helpful and responsive.

Great Location

This is my favorite part of Albuquerque. You're in the foothills, so it doesn't feel like you're in a big city, but restaurants, shopping, etc. are all close by. The sheets and towels could use an upgrade, and the swamp cooler was very loud even on the low setting, but all in all it was a very nice stay. The owner was very responsive and easy to deal with.
