Lovely casita in an enchanting environment! The hosts thought of all the little details to ensure your comfort, to include instructions for unfamiliar equipment. We will definitely be back to the Enchanted Sunset Casita!
A friend and I were looking for somewhere to stay that allowed us to feel like we were close to Santa Fe, but not in the middle of the city - and this was a spectacular location! Sylvi and Harland were incredibly helpful and wonderful hosts. 100% recommend the spot for anyone who loves the outdoors, nature, beautiful views, and is looking for a peaceful landing spot while in the area! If I find myself in the Santa Fe area again, I would absolutely stay here again!
This casita was the perfect place to escape after a busy day exploring all that Santa Fe has to offer. Our toddler would sleep immediately in the sofa bed and we were able to have a moment to relax and recharge for the next day. Sylvi was a great host answering any questions we had. The location is great ! We will definitely be coming back.
The casita was perfect for my stay. Judt the right size for one person, cozy and comfortable.The hostess is wonderful and made sure i had everything i needed.
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Enchanted Sunset Casita! It is beautiful inside and out with a lovely view across the New Mexico landscape - and some gorgeous sunsets! The hosts, Sylvi and Harland, take excellent care of the property and their guests. All of their preparations and our interactions were heart-warming examples of human friendliness, kindness and consideration. It's hard for us to imagine a more enjoyable and lovely place to stay! Thank you, Sylvi and Harland!
Enchanted Sunset Casita is super comfortable, super well appointed and is in a gorgeous, quiet location with great views of the mountains. We would give more stars if possible! Sylvie as a host gets high marks for communication and helpfulness. She has provided a warm and nurturing vacation home. Would stay there again in a minute!
The owners were super attentive - wine for my wife, pet treats for our dog, new microwave for our leftovers and gourmet chocolate treats.
The casita was very clean and well appointed. The location is both rural enough to have a country feel with beautiful views of the mountains and wildlife, yet convenient to the grocery store and great local restaurants plus 15-20 minutes to museums and the plaza. Not far to hiking/fishing in the Pecos or the ski-mountain area. We would definitely stay here again!
Me and my husband along with our miniature schnauzer puppy stayed for 4 nites and we enjoyed our time tremendously. Beautiful view from inside the casita and from the back porch which has a fenced area that is safe for small dogs. The property owners were extremely thoughtful and they left treats for our puppy and us that we found upon check-in. Casita had everything we needed and the bed was very comfortable. It also had a great bathroom with a roomy shower all decorated in Santa Fe style.
Wonderful host! I booked many months in advance, and I appreciate that Sylvi contacted me once in awhile leading up to our stay. This made me feel valued and took away some anxiety from our cross country drive. Such a quiet area that was perfect for our holiday getaway to enjoy the sunshine and birds of the mountains. Traveled with my spouse and 1 small dog. The casita was perfect for the 3 of us, and dog oriented so we didn't feel like our senior fur baby was a burden. We enjoyed having a fireplace for Christmas and it was fitting to the cozy atmosphere of the rest of the house. We will stay again!
My stay at the Enchanted Sunset Casita was absolutely, positively perfect. The hosts have attended to every detail, making this little house a welcoming home away from home. Spotlessly clean, comfortably decorated, and absolutely charming. Quiet, private, and oh my goodness… the views. A lovely back porch for relaxing and watching the scenery. A well appointed kitchenette. A gorgeous walk in shower. And, the very comfortable bed that provided the restful sleep that I desperately needed.
Thank you, Sylvi and Harland. I can’t wait to visit again!!!
The Enchanted Sunset Casita is perfectly named -- not only is the casita lovely and serene, but the back sliding doors frame a pretty view of the mountains made even better by the colorful sunsets! Sylvi added so many special touches -- Santa Fe chocolates for us, yummy treats for our dog, special "pup" blankets (and bowls for his food and water), and the sweetest note! The location was perfect for us (near our children and grandchildren), and it was quiet. We enjoyed walking our dog on the dirt road leading to the home, and would have used the trail system, if we'd had more time. We highly recommend this truly enchanted casita!
• So many great details - she really thought of every creature comfort for a comfortable stay such as coffee, nice bath products, a lint roller, TV with apps you can sign into, plenty of blankets, lamps that have a USB plug for charging phone
• Bed is comfy
• Everything felt clean and was also very quaint and “Santa Fe”
• Special touches like local champagne and chocolates as well as treats for the dog and necessities like bowls, a bed and poop bags
• Big closet with hangers and storage for clothes
• Kitchen well equipped and having RO water with ice trays to make ice is a huge plus!
• Beautiful view of mountains and sunset. Very private, quiet and peaceful.
• Enclosed porch great for dog
• Thorough instructions for everything
• Felt very secure due to the front door locking in 3 ways
You know the feeling -- you arrive at your VRBO, cross your fingers and unlock the door. Will this place be as good as the inviting photos and the positive reviews? Well, when my wife and I opened the door to Sylvie and Harland's casita, we just stood there, smiling. "Score!" I said. "Jackpot!" my wife said. You walk in and are immersed in color -- the tilework, the art, the unobtrusive little treasures. The casita is small -- like we wanted -- but somehow expansive. It's essentially one room, but the clever design makes it feel like you're in different rooms -- kitchen, dining area, bedroom, living room (the gorgeous blue-tiled bathroom is a separate room). Very satisfying and clever.The casita, which abuts the main house, is quiet and very private. It sits at the very end of an upscale, environmentally designed neighborhood called El Dorado. The houses are far apart, and fit beautifully in the New Mexico landscape. We spent every evening on our enclosed patio, and it was like being in a National Park. It's absolutely silent, except for the occasional chirp and rustle of nature. The night sky was like sitting in a private planetarium! We watched a coyote trot by. Rabbits, lizards, birds that my wife the birder had never seen before. And every evening a spectacular mountain sunset.And finally, the hosts are a delight. Sylvie and Harland are gracious, charming, and happy to provide guidance to enhance your stay.A marvelous five days at the Enchanted Sunset Casita!
I can't say enough positive things about Sylvi, Harland and their Casita. We were greeted with a small surprise, and a handwritten note including the time of sunset that day. Sylvi even left her number in case we needed anything. It's beautiful inside and well stocked with everything you need. We spent our time there running the trails, cooking, grilling and enjoying the fire both inside and out.
The firewood was well stocked, but when we ran out (we were spoiled with both an inside fireplace and outdoor fire pit), I asked where we could easily go pick up some more. She insisted they'd bring some over and in no time we were well stocked again.
The location is amazing, you can be in Santa Fe city center in about 20 minutes, but in this location you get to experience coyotes, incredible sunsets and a night sky with very low light pollution. Each night we'd walk outside and look at the stars and watch satellites go by. They have a great folder of things to do and places to eat, which I recommend looking through for a local's perspective.
While we were there for a conference that's usually held in Albuquerque, we decided we'd rather stay here and just drive down next year. It was that nice, not to mention owned by great people.
I'd recommend this location for anyone looking to experience Santa Fe far enough away from city life to relax and enjoy the outdoors, but close enough to easily pop into town for a night out.
The Casita was really cute and cozy! We had everything we needed for a comfortable and cozy stay with our puppies. There were nice views and easy walking trails.
This place was amazing. It was an absolute Haven. The hosts are fantastic and make sure you have everything you need, but also give you your privacy. The home is very welcoming, both for me and my dog. Casita is very well-appointed....whatever you need, it's there. This is outside of the city, so its nice and quiet. The El Dorado neighborhood is also great and has a wonderful grocery store and restaurants all within an 8 or 9 minute drive.
Loved it! It was very quiet and loved the great view from the patio. Enjoyed listening to the birds and watching coyotes. Highly recommended! We will definitely go back.
The owners are so welcoming. We loved the location, close enough to conveniences while feeling away from crowds. The property has just the right amenities for a comfortable stay.
