Don Eladio's hacienda from breaking bad show

This place was absolutely amazing. Beautiful view, accommodating host. Very peaceful and me and my son had an amazing time. Not too far from Albuquerque either Uber still picked us up from here. Extremely inexpensive for what you're getting. The cabin is absolutely gorgeous. You just have to provide your own Wi-Fi though is all so if you don't have hotspot you don't get to watch TV

Christmas getaway

Beautiful scenery amd cute cabin. Door by bedroom did not secure properly so just an fyi. Other than hearing the other guests fighting and yelling, it was a great experience. Cozy cabin with everything you need.

This is a great property and a great place to stay! When booking though realize that communication with this host is done through vrbo. You can book on expdia, but just realize that you have to create a vrbo account to get any communication about this particular property. The pool is excellent, well kept, and clean. That said, you can NOT check in early. They only allow check in AFTER 4 PM. SO DON'T bother to show up early. I hope this helps others when they book a stay here. The cabin is great , the pool is excellent, and the place is clean and quiet. If you wana enjoy a nice little hike i highly recommend "sandia cave and the man cave". Such a fun and unique hike in a cave. You shud bring a runners light or mechanic light to explore the cave easier.

Thanksgiving Getaway

Upon entering the adorable cabin, we were greeted with a cozy fire in the fireplace. The decor has been perfectly placed and well thought out. You have the feeling of being transported into the 1800's, yet have all of the modern conveniences. The four poster bed was extremely comfortable and included plush pillows. The location is easily accessible and feels private. There is a cute cafe within a two minute drive. We will definitely return.

Not recommended

This person was difficult to communicate with. I requested that I get my check-in info a little earlier if possible as I was traveling alone. I had to ask him that morning what the address was. I couldn't get into the place because instructions weren't complete. I had to stay somewhere else for the night. He said I could get a refund, but has not sent one. I left a night early because there was a rodent rummaging around in the trash. Again, I asked for a refund since I had to go elsewhere. No refund. Save yourself the trouble of trying to communicate with this person & just stay away. He doesn't seem at all interested in the comfort of his guests.

Enjoyed the location.

This was the perfect quick stay location for us and it was close to the mountains. One issue is that room is listed as sleeping Four. That is incorrect and is only a single bed that sleeps too. We may do, but it might be inconvenient if there's three adults.

Great location and beautiful property

This is a beautiful 1800's cabin. A good mesh of old and new. Location is perfect as you are a very short drive to restaurants and markets but situated on a property with beautiful views and gorgeous star gazing. This cabin is cozy and comfortable but know because it is an old cabin and its situated in a country atmosphere there is the possibility of critters. We stayed in a winter month and enjoyed the fireplace which is main heat source along with space heaters. Parking is not located in front of the cabin. There is a short walk through the property to unload. You are instructed to conserve water as the main source is a well. Hot water is adequate. This is a multi unit property so dont expect seclusion. Other guests we ran into are very friendly. Would definitely return if in the area again.
