Couldn’t have been better

We rented both homes for Thanksgiving weekend - we are a family of 10. The kitchen was so well stocked - we made an entire Thanksgiving meal. They had gadgets galore! The house is very well located - 20 min walk to Canyon Road or to town. It snowed while we were there but no issues whatsoever. The beds were very comfortable and everyone enjoyed the stay. We recommend this unequivocally for a wonderful stay in Santa Fe!

Perfect Santa Fe experience.

Location -perfect! Walking distance to the Plaza and easy access to driving to other areas. Rented both homes and they worked perfectly for our family of twelve. Both indoor and outdoor accommodations were excellent. We would rent again when we return with our family.

Family event

Wow, wow, wow. If you come to Santa Fe you can’t go wrong with either of these properties (Casa Grande and Casita Estrella). Beautifully decorated, spacious and comfortable. The big house had THE best stocked kitchen I have ever seen at a vacation rental. The outside area is also amazing. Our group of 10 loved their stay. Highly recommend.

Great Santa Fe Feel

We rented 653 and 547 Garcia Street to accommodate twelve people. Both properties were excellent. Lots of privacy in the beautiful gardens. The artwork had a classic southwest touch. The only negative was the 547 TV selection (no live ESPN which would have been bad if our rental was a weekend trip).

Perfect Santa Fe Retreat

This is a wonderful Santa Fe home located in a great neighborhood. My family spend a week in March at this terrific rental and everyone loved it. The house is configured well for a multi-generational family and is equipped with everything you need. It is bright, spacious, very clean and very well appointed. It is located close to all of Santa Fe's great places and yet the neighborhood is extremely quiet and peaceful. The owners are delightful and responsive to anything that might come up.

Superb setting, Spectacular Space

Casa Grande was home base for five couples, 3 staying here and 2 at Casa Estrella. Both spots are ideal independently and a great pairing if you need more than 4 bedrooms. We will definitely recomend this very comfortable and spacious home to friends. Though Canyon Road is easily walkable, you don’t have to leave Casa Grande to see much of Santa Fe’s best art. The owners have collected and documented many beautiful artworks. The gardens are also very special. Great space. Casa Estrella is equally welcoming and has absolutely spectacular gardens and outdoor relaxing areas. We will definitely choose this as our home when we return to Santa Fe as a couple or with friends.

Great stay at the faux "compund"

Although we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Casa Grande and Casa Estrella, we were a bit disappointed when we discovered that this "family compound" actually consisted of two home about a quarter of a mile from each other. The only reference to this separation on the listing was the word "split" which, to me, was very misleading as I assumed "split" just meant two separate homes on the same property (which was not the case). Luckily, we were a group of women who didn't need to be all together but if a family tried to stay here, they may be surprised to know the homes are not on a "compound" as listed. Rather, they're just two homes with the same owners that happen to be within a 7-10 minute walk of each other. That aside, both homes were immaculately clean, the beds were extremely comfortable, and the homes were both well-stocked with all the amenities we could need, including coffee and lots of towels. Pam, the property manager, was also very easy to communicate with and got back to us quickly.

Just what the Dr. ordered

Our two houses were optimal for our use here in Santa Fe. The main reason was the Balloon Fiesta and the Taos Loop. The houses were very well appointed and clean and comfortable. Nice TV service and strong internet signals the entire five days. An easy and pleasant one mile stroll to the Historic Santa Fe Plaza and all the shopping you'll need. Kodu's to Historic Eastside.

White and Merry Christmas!

Property is lovely and in desirable location. Property owners are very concerned that your needs are met and your stay is enjoyable. Yes, the houses (if you are renting both) are indeed a ten minute walk, but was no trouble for us.

Two lovely homes in Santa Fe

My guests and I had a wonderful time. We loved both Casa Grande and the Casita, and were comfortable in both. Both homes are well-appointed and included everything we could possibly want or need. The art is so interesting and well placed. The courtyards and balconies provided unlimited gathering places, and there was never a feeling of being crowded; there was always a place to get away for a phone call or just a quiet time alone. Because of the extremely high temperatures, it was sometimes tempting to just stay at home although we were there to have the entire Santa Fe experience. We all hope to revisit Santa Fe soon and will definitely opt for these properties if they are available.

Filled with Santa Fe light and charm

Gorgeous sky-lit home with artistic details in a terrific location, and a quiet classic Santa Fe cottage a short walk away. Perfect for our extended family! Loved everything about these two places—we will be back.

Surrounded by comfort and beauty

Casa Estrella is the perfect pied-a-terre for your stay in Santa Fe. From the rustic entry gate and gorgeous yard to the beautiful art filled interior, this casita sets you down in the New Mexico of your imagination. Fully equipped, with comfortable beds and furnishings, and excellent kitchen/laundry facilities, you will rest and relax well here. It's just a short walk to Canyon Road, and Casa Estrella makes you feel right at home.

Outstanding casita, fabulous location

Casa Estrella is the most wonderful casita we have rented in 15 years of visiting Santa Fe. The Gorgeous property and gardens, wonderful decorating, great kitchen, every amenity provided, interesting artwork, yet comfortable and gracious. The owners have really attended to details to make the casita feel like home, not a rental. This was our second stay at Casa Estrella and we can't wait to return next year.

WOW, most fabulous homes we have ever rented! Easy walk to Canyon Road and Plaza. Lovely gardens,art

We felt at home the moment we walked into both of these gorgeous homes (and immediately felt like locals)! These are private homes and didn't feel at all like "vacation rentals." Both houses were immaculately clean and well-maintained, beautifully decorated with antiques and original art by Native American artists you will recognize. The beds were great and the linens were scrumptious. One of our couples even bought the same bed linens when they got home. Both homes had surprisingly large, lovely private gardens and ample parking (rarities in SF!). We could have parked two cars easily at the casita and four or more at the big house. Casa Estrella was romantic and cozy. with connected garden areas, lush landscaping, fruit trees and two pine trees. This house had multiple outdoor living spaces surrounded by adobe walls and coyote fences. It is on a quiet, dead-end lane. It was less than a five minute walk to the big house through this beautiful historic neighborhood. Casa Grande, "the big house," is a large, dramatic, two story contemporary adobe on Garcia Street directly across from the Indian Arts Research Center and the School for Advanced Research. It had soaring, high vigas and plank ceilings, polished plaster walls, and the most gorgeous wide-plank antique wood floors we have ever seen. It was beautifully decorated with Navajo rugs and SW art. The main floor living areas opened onto a wraparound covered balcony with two sets of French doors and a door to the master bedroom. The entire upper floor had wonderful easy flows between the indoor spaces and outdoor terraces. Our families could be together but with private spots to get away. The kitchen was roomy enough for several of us to be in the kitchen at the same time. Although there were only six of us, we could have seated a small army in the open dining, breakfast nook and kitchen bar area. We had about 12 to 15 friends over for wine and cheese, and the house worked beautifully for our party. There were large, connected flagstone patios each with dining and lounge seating. The upper terrace was shaded by a traditional ramada (read New Mexican arbor" with strings of mini-"starlights" for evening ambiance. The lower floor of the house had three queen bedrooms two of which share a shower. This was the closest thing to a drawback this house had, but it was no problem for us. Both had fully equipped" cooks kitchens" and both houses were air conditioned and had plenty of firewood.
