Our stay at Wendy's home was terrific! The setting and location was perfect. Just one block to all of the art galleries on Canyon Road. The home was very clean and fully stocked with everything we needed. We really appreciated the bottle of wine, chips and salsa, bottled water, and coffee that was waiting for us. We will definitely stay here again when we return to the area. So much better than a hotel. Thank you Wendy! Jim, March 2016

Wendy and team were extremely accommodating and prompt with communication. The home was cozy, clean, and well positioned to explore Canyon Rd and downtown by foot. We enjoyed our stay and had fun exploring Santa Fe. Crystal, April 2016

An east side sweet little jem. Perfect for the two of us. We walked to the Tea house just a block or so away and treated our selves to Geronimos again only a block away. The casita it self was so charming and comfy. We brought our dog and she was happy as can be in the smallish back yard. Two Casitas treated us like royalty. We arrived to a bottle of wonderful wine, blue corn chips and green chilli salsa. They were very responsive when we found the hair drier was no longer working and in 1/2 hour there was a brand new one at our front door. I highly recommend this home for a romantic stay in Santa Fe.

There was a welcoming bottle of wine, chips and salsa there at the casita when we arrived. The casita itself was authentic and charming, and the neighborhood was fantastic. It was so conveniently located, we could easily walk anywhere in the Plaza, Canyon Road areas. The huge, comfy bed was well appreciated, the shower was good, and we enjoyed fixing some of our meals in the adequate kitchen. Karen, May 2016

Location, location, location and great service!!! Beautiful, historic adobe home within walking distance to the plaza and Railyard area. Great restaurants and shopping close by. The home is furnished comfortably with gorgeous southwest art. It is spotless and well stocked. The customer service provided by our host was amazing as she quickly responded to our requests. This home is spacious with well appointed outdoor areas for dining and relaxing in the southwest sunshine. We look forward to returning and staying at Wendy's casita in beautiful Santa Fe.

I cannot say enough about that darling Bonita casita ... everything was perfect! , The reservation process - your website was excellent and easy to use. Because I was coming with my dogs I thought I would need to deal with someone directly but it turned out not to be the case! One of the better websites I have used for lodging reservations! And when I arrived at Bonita - what a cute casita with everything I could need to be right at home! Such a great convenient location ... and I loved having that little enclosed courtyard - especially with the dogs. Thank you for the welcoming bottle of wine! The house warmed up quickly that first night and stayed quite comfortable - I was able to adjust the temperature down during the day. I appreciated the very quick response from you and the plumber when the hot water did not work.

4/25/16 Thank you so much for the gift of your beautiful home. We had such a wonderful time on the best trip we've ever been on together making memories we will cherish for a lifetime. It was so nice to be able to spend the day exploring then be able to come back to a cozy , relaxing environment. We loved the huge bathtub, luxurious shower, and spending our evenings together reading your intriguing books in front of the fire. We so admired the quaint, Southwestern decor of the house. Everything we needed was here making it easy for us to simply relax and enjoy our trip stress free. We can not thank you enough for your hospitality and generosity in allowing us to make this our home for the week.

We had a great time at the Luna house! The house has an authentic feel and was cozy. It was close to the Railyard as well as the Plaza and restaurants. The house was clean and met our needs. we will stay there again!!

March 2016 Amazing! The Bonita Adobe home was everything advertised and more. It is very beautiful. Nicely furnished with great amenities. The kitchen is well stocked with top of the line appliances. Great location, and the customer service from Two Casitias was top notch. My husband would like to plan another visit in summer and we would definitely look to stay at a Two Casitias property again. Thank you for a lovely week!

We checked into lovely casita Bonita last night and are beyond pleased. The house is comfy, cozy, perfectly appointed, and just so pretty. Housekeeping did a wonderful job--everything is pristine and perfectly in place. We will be leaving a generous Thank You for the excellent housekeeping service. Directions were clear and simple. We had zero problems getting to the property and getting settled inside. We've reviewed the booklet explaining the running of the house, and so far so good on all fronts. Really a well-thought-out check-in. We're super pleased. Thanks so much for thinking of every little thing! Happy Holidays-- DeLisa, Paul, and Jordan

We found this home in perfect shape; everything looks fresh and clean. And it is a beautiful home in the true Santa Fe tradition. Easy, short walk to Canyon Rd and into town. We walked everywhere and were happy to return to this home. Definitely a 5 star experience!

Dear Two Casitas (and Wendy!) - Once again we found a home in Sante Fe. It's was our second stay at El Camanito and it's better than ever! Our first stay there was 4-1/2 years ago and it has remained in our minds ever since. That particular trip was in early July and we loved the home and especially took full advantage of the upper terrace, sleeping with the open windows, and cooking in the amazing kitchen. Ahhh... Fast forward to this past Holiday Season 2015. We arrived at the house with a carpet of snow on the ground. The abundance of windows let in all of the amazing sunlight and the home was very cozy. We especially loved the fireplaces and the huge stack of perfectly-seasoned firewood at the front door - it prompted many a wonderful morning and evening fires in the kiva fireplaces. Once again, the great kitchen allowed us to settle in and cook breakfasts and great dinners. Everything is spotless and new. The walk to Canyon Road is quick... and to the Plaz

Thank you for a wonderful stay. We loved your nice casita, with all of the unique and historic artwork accents decorations and furnishings. Everything was perfect! it was great to have a comfortable close base of operation from which to explore Santa Fe and to come home to and relax at the and of every day. We can only imagine all the love and work and sweat and energy you put into creating this beautiful casita "Desert sky" is a perfect place for you and your guests to come! PS thank you for the lovely bottle of wine as a welcome gift that was such a nice touch Robin and I aren't wine drinkers so we saved it for the next guest PPS I can only echo the sentiment as to the beauty of this casita

The beautifully appointed Puerta del Sol was an enchanting place for our family's recent 6-night visit to Santa Fe. Four adults from Ohio and one from California traveled to Santa Fe for the commencement activities at St. John's College. Everything at the property was first class. We especially liked the exquisite artwork and comfortable furnishings. The house was the perfect size for relaxing. Plus, it was in a great location for downtown sightseeing. We wish we had found Two Casitas four years ago when our son started attending St. John's because Puerta del Sol provided the most comfortable accommodations we have experienced while visiting Santa Fe. We were spoiled and never want to stay in hotels again! We recommend it to anyone who wants to spend a memorable time with family away from home.

Amazing experience. The Viejo Nuevo house was very clean, extremely cozy, and beautifully decorated. An the skylights!!!! The only thing that was missing was an espresso maker, wink wink. Thanks for the wonderful stay, we'll be back! Ricardo, June 2015

Just got back from a delightful two-week stay at Pinon House with my siblings, Mom, and a few spouses and significant others. The house is spacious, beautifully decorated, very comfortable, with just about every single amenity we needed (except the automatic juicer we could have used for our ritual margaritas). The views are great, great location (although a bit of a steep walk back up the hill from town), house has loads of local guide books and brochures and maps. There's even free Internet access there (wireless as well as ethernet) with a printer available (handy for printing boarding passes).

The Pinon house is within walking distance to Santa Fe's historic plaza, and a perfect place for a family reunion. It was so comfortable for the 10 of us - ranging from 16 to 60 years old, we all found it delightful. The kitchen was very well stocked, which allowed us to save a lot of money on food. The house is very well maintained; bathrooms were big with nice showers, and the beds comfortable. One large living room and several other smaller ones gave us the togetherness we wanted along with areas where we could sit quietly and read if we wanted. But our favorite part of this 5 bedroom house was probably the several patios we could use. One was perfect for coffee in the morning, and there was a lovely huge patio to lounge at night, appreciating the views, watching stars, and enjoying the evening breezes.

I recently stayed at the Pinon House with a group of 8 girls/women. What a fantastic home it is. So very beautifully appointed and very well equiped. The living areas and the dining room are very comfortable for a large group. Every bedroom is comfortable and plenty of linens are provided. The main patio is partially covered and has a spectacular view of the Santa Fe skyline and surroundings. It is absolutely breathtaking and has plenty of outdoor seating and tables for a much larger crowd than the home will accomodate. The home is very well maintained and has a stocked kitchen as far as coffee, sweetners, detergents, etc. The home also comes with a lovely woman who is the general caretaker. We hired her to come cook, serve and cleanup for us one evening. The food, margaritas and especially her company was deliteful. I would highly recommend having her to cater an evening for your group. I hope that I can someday return and stay at this lovely home once again.

Pinon House was the perfect place for our ladies' getaway. The house is warm and cozy,stocked with everything you need from all the extra linens and blankets to every kitchen tool or appliance you may need. The bathrooms were all modern with great showers - and plenty of hot water even after the 8th shower! We appreciated all the guide books and information about the area as well. There is nothing missing in this home. Room to spread out and yet so many places to gather as a group, with wonderful patios, a great dining room and the main living room with cozy fireplace. The views were fantastic and looking out the kitchen window to see the sky change as the sun rose, was a great way to start each day. We couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate our 25th year of ladies' week-end getaways.

My family from CT along with my father and my brother's family from Oregon met in Santa Fe last July for a summer vacation. We could not have asked for better accommodations! The house was very spacious and beautifully decorated and very well stocked both in the kitchen and linens. The house was very clean. We loved the location as the views were beautiful and it was quiet, yet a walkable distance to town. There were a few minor house issues that were related to weather but they were addressed immediately. The owners supplied us with many resources and guides for dining and activities. As the outdoor patio area was so beautiful and large with awesome views, we preferred dining in as opposed to going out. One night we had a personal chef come in to cook for us after a long day sightseeing up to Taos! What a treat! We love Santa Fe and plan on another return visit and when we do, we hope Pinon House will be available!

n May of 2011, our family celebrated my Mother-in-law's 65th birthday. One family drove from Colorado, one family flew into Albequerque, and one family drove from Texas. There were 6 adults and 4 children ranging in age from 1 to 5 years old. This house was AMAZING!!! The patio itself could have kept us happy the entire trip with unbelievable views, a hammock, tons of outdoor seating and a beautiful gas grill to cook out on. The kitchen was so stocked from condiments and leftover goodies to coffee, chips, sauces, spices, you name it, if we needed it, the house had it. My husband and I have rented from VRBO on several occasions, twice before in Santa Fe. This was by far the best stocked, state of the art appliances, comfortable beds, great space, beautifully decorated, on and on. Everyone in the family was VERY pleased from the showers to the TWO kitchens, everything we could have hoped for. Thank you to the owners for sharing this home with us.

From the moment we drove up we were in LOVE!! Everything this house said it was, IT WAS and More!! Very Clean. Very Up to date! The kitchen had everything we needed. The Bathrooms were Beautiful! There was enough hot water for 11 people!! We could have showered all day and had no problem. The parking was enough for 4 cars, you could have fit more if needed. Everything was perfect. The pictures for the house do NOT do it justice. You must see it to fully enjoy. We are looking forward to our next stay. Already planning it together and with individual families. Thanks so much for letting us stay in your home and letting it be ours for awhile.

Our family met in Santa Fe for a family reunion and Thanksgiving celebration. We stayed at the Pinon House and everybody fell in love with the house! It is a rare experience when the actual house or facility exceeds the pictures and description, but the Pinon house does - The house is beautiful and exquistely decorated! The view from the house is breathtaking! The house is easy to find and very close to many of the main attractions in Santa Fe! We would be glad to stay at the house again if and when we have the opportunity to do so. We highly recommend this house to anyone considering a stay! You will not be disappointed.

We are ten women who gathered to celebrate fifty years of friendship. One gal lives locally and was able to visit our eight potential rentals researched on websites. Pinon House was a clear first choice. We definitely concur with the other reviews. Listed below are a few additional comments: (1) complete website pictures of the bedrooms with accurate captions eliminating guessing or unwelcome surprises such a bunk beds, futons, or blow up beds, (2) owners who are responsive both to rental inquiries and to the prompt return of the security deposit, (3) courteous local staff providing answers to our few questions and the quick resolution of one minor maintenance problem - a "chirping" smoke detector, (4) a pleasant 15-20 minute walk to the plaza which reduced parking hassles, (5) very spacious dining tables both indoors and outdoors, (6) the nanny apartment is really a wing of the main house rather than a detached cassita, which kept our group connected

Our family spent a wonderful week at this beautiful well kept home, we couldn't have been more pleased. It felt like a family home, and didn't have the feel of a rental. The outdoor patio with it's many places to sit, and the huge table, was our favorite place to gather and watch the dramatic New Mexico sunsets and storms. We have nothing negative to say about this home. Loved it. We would love to come back in the future. Also the damage deposit was returned quickly.
