Great Experience! Love the Attention to Detail!
I rarely leave reviews, but our beautiful experience in this home was something exceptional, and I feel compelled to express my thoughts. First, the home itself is absolutely beautiful, the interior design was stunning, it is very clean, and all furniture and materials were nothing but the best. The beds were also very comfortable and the home well laid out for us. If that were all, then that would be enough to leave a great review. However, the property owners were just fantastic to work with. They paid attention to every detail of our stay. They had surprises and goodies for us that just made our arrival and stay exceptional. We really and truly appreciated the care extended for my family. The only thing I would want is to be able to get to come back soon.

Beautiful, beautiful property!
There is a reason that I keep staying at Nicolle and Robert's properties, they really are amazing! This home is beautiful. We especially loved sitting outside in the back listening to the relaxing sound of the fountain. The firepit was great, as are the heaters that are outside (if it's chilly). All of the rooms in this home are beautiful and so well equipped, you won't want for anything. We did not spend a lot of time inside, as the back yard area is so comfortable! We appreciated all of the little extra touches. Any issues or questions, Nicolle is just a text away and any issues are dealt with quickly. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home, can't wait to stay again!

Excellent Hosts/Excellent Property/Excellent Experience
This is a beautiful property with all amenities--and then some--that one could imagine. Nicolle and Robert are quintessential hosts, available to assist at any time. A simple text and Nicolle would have response. Her recommendations for lunch/dinner places in ALBQ and Santa Fe were excellent. As to the property, the hot tub, the fireplace, and the backyard are amazing with the view of mountains and the famous air balloons--we caught one on a Saturday! We were two families and celebrated our daughter's birthday at this stunning place. ALL IN ALL A FIVE STAR PLACE. Thank you Nicolle and Robert. We will certainly return.

Perfect Christmas Celebration
Our family Christmas celebration could not have been more perfect. This home delivered on every one of our needs: big kitchen for making raviolis, family breakfasts with griddled pancakes, bathrooms for everyone but mostly the lovely touches which the host Nicolle had in every nook and corner. She was wonderful! We will most certainly be returning for another wonderful stay.

House was immaculate, and host was very accommodating. The only thing I wish was different was being allowed to feed the team during some down time in between games. Was told this wasn’t allowed however the house was plenty big enough to allow the girls to relax during their down time. Other than that, everything is 5 stars!

Father Son Golf Trip (our 10th Annual)
We are four dads and sons who plan a golf trip every year to a different part of the U.S. We chose Albuquerque this year and our first reaction on arriving Wednesday evening was "Wow!" The pre-trip communication from Nicole was great, so we were clear on expectations, but this property has so much going for it we were amazed. Plenty of beds for everyone, lots of space, and the backyard - with hot tub, waterfall, fire pit, bbq grill and views of mountains - was terrific. The gang agreed it was the best place we have stayed (and the bar for us is pretty high). I give it five stars, but would go to six if that rating were available. Nicole, thanks so much for making our 10th annual trip one to remember.

A True Five Start Find and Unforgettable Experience
We recently had the pleasure of staying at the El Albergue del Pinon in Rio Rancho. From the moment we arrived until the day of departure, this place exceeded all expectations. First and foremost, the location was perfect. The property offered a tranquil escape from the city while still being conveniently close to local attractions. The ambiance and breathtaking views provided for a very relaxing getaway. The highlight of this rental was undoubtedly the beautiful patio/portal, which was nothing short of a private oasis. Complete with the comfort of a hot tub, fire pit, and an abundance of comfortable seating, it was a perfect place to relax morning, noon and night. The attention to detail and cleanliness of the property reflected the utmost care and dedication of the owners. The interior was flawlessly organized, and we were delighted to find clear instructions for every amenity available. It made our stay effortless and stress-free, as everything we needed was at our fingertips. Moreover, the communication and support provided by the Nicolle and Robert was amazing. They were incredibly responsive, and their dedication to ensuring our comfort and satisfaction truly elevated the experience and made us feel like cherished visitors. I wholeheartedly recommend this property to anyone seeking an extraordinary escape. Don't miss the opportunity to immerse yourself in this hidden gem—I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Special family gathering
Our stay was absolutely amazing. We have stayed in a lot of different Vrbos and this was without doubt our best experience ever. The property is beautiful, clean, spacious, all of the needed amenities, etc, but what made this the best was the hospitality of the property owner. They left a thoughtful snack package for our family AND for our doggos. I knew I could call or text Nicolle with anything we needed or had questions about. I was absolutely THRILLED to learned that she has multiple Vrbos in the NM area, a place we frequently visit. There is no question that we will try to stay in her properties whenever we are in town. If you are on the fence when selecting between available rentals in NM, I hope this may help in your decision. I can’t imagine anyone ever being disappointed with the level of thought and care that Nicolle brings to her guests. It is evident that she truly loves providing this level of service to her guests and she cares about ensuring guests have the best experience while visiting. One specific example of her level of care, she not only left an amazing snack basket, but she also got in touch to make sure we didn’t have food allergies. Me and my adult children are all severely allergic to nuts and we were able to enjoy everything she left in the basket because she avoided those products. This is just one of many examples of the 5 Star level of hospitality provided. Our family will fondly remember this stay for a long time to come.

If you are on the fence between this property and another one, I would suggest this one because of the gracious and incredible hosting experience we recieved. The actual property was even bigger than we expected and even more beautiful in person. The kitchen is absolutely stocked and there are spices! The beds were very comfortable, the home was so cozy, the view of the mountains were incredible and the hot tub was so perfect!The hosts actually make you feel welcomed and wanted as opposed to the vibe some hosts have of you being a bother to them or unable to actually relax at the property. This was hands down the smoothest, kindest and best communication. Worth every penny we would absolutely come back.

One of the best VRBOs where we’ve stayed. We stayed at this house for a long birthday weekend and it was exactly what we needed. A lovely disconnect from the city and beautiful Mountain Views. We loved sitting on the patio during the day and by the fire at night! The house is beautiful decorated and stocked with any type of kitchen appliance you may need.

This house is spectacular. Super clean, super well furnished and super well maintained. It honestly had more kitchen items than I have at home. The garden is also beautiful and in the warmer period of the year will be a very pleasant retreat. We only used the hot tub as it was rather cold. If we ever have to stay neer Albuquerque again I wil definely book a second time. Highly recommended!

Book This Property Immediately!
Five of us stayed in the house for a short girls weekend and there are not enough words to express how amazing the house and overall stay was. I'll continue to book this property over and over again. Every single thing has been thought of to make your stay absolutely perfect. Kitchen well stocked (super fancy coffee machine), bathrooms had legit anything you could ever need, outdoors were setup thoughtfully and beautifully. Seriously, the pictures do not do this property justice. The host was incredibly communicative leading up to the process, and left us the most amazing basket of goodies upon our arrival. Every day we discovered something better about the house. It's PERFECT for a group, the house is large, the bedrooms are beautifully furnished and spaced out. The hot tub was PRISTINE, even extra heaters outside if you want to hang out when it's chilly. The view in the backyard, especially sunrise is phenomenal. I've stayed at a lot of properties and this was by far one of the best. Every time I visit ABQ, this is the property I will be renting. Stop looking now and book this place, seriously. Thank you to the host, we had the absolutely BEST time!
