Charming and elegantly appointed, this studio casita, known as Casita Testoro, is hidden away in the middle of everything -- just blocks from restaurants, shops, galleries, and local favorites in downtown Santa Fe and the Plaza.

Stroll minutes for a fine dining experience at Restaurant Martin, pick up gourmet treats at the farmers market in the Railyard District, visit The New Mexico State Capitol, and browse world-class art at SITE Santa Fe.

This adobe treasure comes with all the comforts of home, including Wi-Fi, cable TV with a premium package, air conditioning, and a full kitchen with a stainless steel stove. You’ll also enjoy a private Southwestern-style yard -- perfect for morning meditations or sipping a cold afternoon beverage.

ABOUT THE CONDO

Kick back in front of the 33” flat screen TV in the living area and enjoy the warm ambience of the wood-effect gas fireplace. Or hook up your vacation playlist to the studio’s iHome.

Whip up meals in a fully equipped kitchen with well-stocked cabinetry and essential appliances, including a new stainless steel gas range. A breakfast table in the kitchen has seating for two.

A private side yard offers a quiet and cozy spot to enjoy the fantastic weather before hitting the town. Sip morning coffee at the outdoor table and relax under the cool shade of the trees.

The studio also offers a full bathroom with a tiled walk-in shower, and storage cupboards come stocked with towels and a pair of bathrobes.

THE LOCATION

Drive 5 minutes to restaurants, shops, and art galleries in downtown Santa Fe.

Then find a bench and relax in the sun at Santa Fe Plaza.

Santa Fe Railyard Park (a 12-minute walk) is worth a trip for its pretty gardens, outdoor performances, art festivals, farmers market, and selection of eateries.

For an outbound adventure, hop in the car and travel 16 minutes to hit the hiking trails around Santa Fe National Forest.

My private island
It was my first time in New Mexico and wanted to stay in one of these casitas. Such a good decision. This space had everything I needed. A comfortable bed, good water pressure and a cozy fireplace. The space is centrally located and 5-10 mins away from great food and coffee. Would definitely stay here again.

Not what it seems
The pictures online are not an accurate description of what you actually see and get at the Property. In the description, it says to look out for a red door the door is not red. It’s green. Also the picture of the common area does not have the same furniture that is actually in the property. There is no chair in the corner with cute pillows, the table and chair in front of the window, including the lamp are not what is there. When we arrived, we arrived in the evening we decided to rest and maybe catch a little TV before we got busy doing our things the next day only to find out that the TV cable did not work. I contacted the host to see if there was something I was doing wrong no reply I had to contact the host three times before I received a reply, asking me to check the wires and the batteries to the cable. The wires that were stuffed behind a stool were all tangled. You could not tell where The wires went. We purchased our own batteries for the remote. We were gone most of the day, so the TV was not a priority. It was only when we were in for the evening that we wanted to maybe Watch a movie on TV that we had to watch it from our phones. Once we had made the decision to check out early that’s when we received notification that someone was coming over to check on the Cable. The host should also spray for bugs and spiders. We checked out early and went somewhere else for the remainder of our trip

Wonderful Casita 15 minute Walk to Santa Fe Plaza
The casita is a great place to stay in Santa Fe. It was well-equipped with kitchen items and the shared washer and dryer was free. We could walk everywhere. The only thing we would change is the front door lock. We often had to try 2-3 times to get it right. We were never locked out, but it shouldn’t be that hard.

Problematic
Poor communication overall leading to faulty "repairs"while we were there. Repair staff left dirty towels and replaced batteries in tv remote instead of thermostat. Gas heater not working and electric heaters took hours to bring casita to a bearable temperature. No response to request to clean bathroom after plumber left, so we had to do it. If everything worked it would be a great place to stay, but this stay really showed poor management and communication.

Great location and space, poor communication and comfort.
The casita itself was very charming and in an amazing neighborhood! It felt very safe and was walking distance from many Santa Fe attractions and restaurants. The check in process was terrible. The code for the door lock didn’t work, and management didn’t answer my several calls and texts for over 45 minutes. We had to leave and go to Whole Foods just to use the restroom after the long road trip because of the poor response time 😬. We ended up taking a house key with us for the weekend because the code never started working. Also, the pillows provided in the casita were terrible. I would recommend bringing your own if you can. I almost went and bought some it was so rough. Not a comfy movie watching set up, or sleeping arrangement. If you and a friend are looking for a long weekend and you’re road tripping, I would still recommend this spot. Just bring your pillows and be flexible at check in time.

Overall nice stay
Nice apartment. As advertised. Only complaint was that the front door electronic lock was broken upon arrival. Ended up using the side entrance and had to carry a key, instead of the front door. A neighbor mentioned that the previous occupants also had problems with it. We called the management company on the day of arrival, but it wasn't fixed during the 4 days we were there.

Casa Testoro
The property is in a great location...5-10 minute driving location from everything you might want to see or do in Santa Fe. The kitchen was very well equipped. The unit has 3 heat sources. One of the heating units did not work. We called maintenance but no one came to fix it. We were there for 8 days. Thankfully the gas stove did work and was just enough so that we didn't freeze to death.

Not A Good Experience
From first impression of property to the failed attempt entry the tone was set (all documented dialog with VACASA whom took over property from “TurnKey”. 1. Photos do not properly represent the unit 2. It should be offered to a single person using it as a base camp for skiing or hiking 3. It should not be considered for a couple using t for extended stay (2 to 4 weeks) 4. Stated enclosed backyard is crushed/fragment rock. Not appropriate for the small dog (approved) 5. The ‘local manager’ never acted upon the entry pt Robles/securing the unit request I notified VACASA of our intention/action to relocate to a different property in order for us to complete our planned month with security, comfort and hospitality. Terrible experience!

Santa Fe Bungalow
I would highly recommend this rental. The renters communicated very well. Just two suggestions. The door lock is challenging to get in and out. The code could be shorter. However the renters sent a lot of information on how to work the lock. A rug inside by the back door would limit the dirt inside from the backyard. It was well equipped for cooking and the towels and linens were great. The location is perfect. Near lots of Santa Fe proper tourist locations.
