Sandia Heights Getaway_VIEWS, UPSCALE, 3BR

NEW LISTING..We now offer two superb options for your stay in Albuquerque. Please see listing Sandia Heights Getaway vrbo # 276702 or vrbo #829002. These properties are right next door to one another if you need to rent both for larger groups contact owner.
Nestled in the foothills of the Sandia Mountains this newly remodeled home is the perfect location for your stay in Albuquerque.There is nothing in this home that is not BRAND NEW! Unbelievable views of the mountain can be seen from the wall of windows adjacent to the living room and dining room.
Located just off Tramway Blvd and Paseo Del Norte this home provides easy access to the many nearby sites. The 'World's Longest Tram' is basically in your backyard. Enjoy a spectacular ride to the top of the mountain where a day of skiing or hiking awaits you or just take a ride to enjoy a fine dining experience at High Finance Restaurant. If you are wanting a more casual dining experience, I recommend the Mexican restaurant at the base of the tram which offers a spectacular view from the patio. Enjoy a mango margarita while viewing a spectacular New Mexico sunset.

If you are feeling lucky only a few more minutes down the hill you will find Sandia Resort and Casino offers the largest gaming facility in the state. The resort features a top rated golf course, spa facilities, restaurants, live entertainment and dancing. Don't forget to check out the buffalo that you can see from the road on the way down.

If you are wanting to get some exercise mountain bikes are available upon request. The bike trail is only a minute away. Don't be surprised if you pass some quail or 'beep-beep' there goes a road runner.

Forgot some essentials? A new CVS pharmacy is two minutes away. Other close by shopping includes Alberston's, Trader Joes, Barnes and Nobles, Target, and Kohls.

Once your day is complete you can relax in contemporary southwestern flair. Our home provides a spacious living area with hardwood floors and high ceilings that feature famous New Mexico artist's work.

A 65'' and 50'' flat screen LCD in both the master bedroom and living room with Direct TV. Wireless internet for your laptop is available also.
The gourmet kitchen features stainless steel appliances with a top quality kitchenware to prepare meals that can be enjoyed at the bar or at the gorgeous dining room table that can seat up to 6 people.

This home is the perfect retreat with large backyard with waterfall and pond. Fully fenced and private courtyard entrance provides plenty of room.

Beautiful mountain views

This home is located in a quiet neighborhood near many amenities, parks, and walking paths. The views of the Sandia mountains are extraordinary. The home is cozy and clean, with an open living area that has lots of natural light and allows for the beautiful landscape views. Check-in and out was easy and the property manager was accommodating and provided great communication. Would love to stay here again!

Great Unit and Responsive Host

A well appointed unit with a great view of the mountains. We spent three nights and chose this location because of its close proximity to family. It did not disappoint. The Host was incredibly responsive when we identified a couple of maintenance issues that were resolved the same day. We definitely would consider staying here again.

Perfect home and location for our family!

We loved our stay and will be back again! The location off Tramway can’t be beat and the mountain views from the living room are breathtaking. The home was very comfy, clean, and well-stocked in the kitchen for cooking or entertaining. It’s hard to find really nice homes like this that welcome dogs. The fenced yard is perfect for pups!

Short and sweet visit

We were happy to have this nice home as an option to stay in rather than a hotel for our short visit to see family in ABQ. The owner reached out to ensure we had what we needed. The home was very clean, and comfortable. The outdoor garden was a nice place to enjoy our coffee in the morning. Would definitely stay here again.

Everything Was Perfect, As Usual!

We love staying in this beautiful home and this latest visit was no exception. Everything was perfect, as usual. It's in a perfect setting with beautiful views of the mountains and it feels secluded though it's only a few minutes from everything in the city. We especially enjoy the comfortable living room and luxurious bed and bath linen. Christine is a wonderful host; we plan to return again and again.

Great Location

This is my favorite part of Albuquerque. You're in the foothills, so it doesn't feel like you're in a big city, but restaurants, shopping, etc. are all close by. The sheets and towels could use an upgrade, and the swamp cooler was very loud even on the low setting, but all in all it was a very nice stay. The owner was very responsive and easy to deal with.

A Great Location

This was the perfect choice for our Christmas vacation. The unit was nice and the views of the Sandra mountains were spectacular. There was one issue with the unit, but the owner made us aware of the problem before we checked in and offered us a discount as compensation. Overall the owner was very helpful and responsive.

Soccer tournament

Our family enjoyed our stay for a long weekend. For us the location in the northeast corner of Albuquerque was very good since we spent most of our days at the soccer fields in Bernalillo. There were shops and restaurants 8-10 minutes away from the house. Quiet neighborhood, near walking and hiking/biking trails. Thanks for being dog friendly.

Beautiful home, perfect location

We've stayed in Christine's beautiful home several times and it is always a pleasure. The location and design of the home allow you to enjoy the most scenic mountain view in Albuquerque, either through the large windows in the living and dining area, or sitting on the backyard patio listening to the fountain and the birds. The home is fully furnished with everything you need including luxurious linens and towels. The house is always spotlessly clean and looks brand new; it's just perfect, we wouldn't think of staying anywhere else.

Wonderful vacation in Sandia Heights

We had such a great time at this Vrbo. The place is a bit on the older side, but very well appointed. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything we needed to make a lot of our meals. Grill was smallish, but worked well. The backyard was large and fenced in for our dog. It had an awesome water feature that added a peaceful feel to the yard. Overall a great place. We had 6 people and it was plenty big enough for all of us.

Seamless and Relaxing

This was one of our best experiences ever with a rental home! The owner kept in touch without being intrusive and answered all of our questions promptly. Check-in was a breeze and the property is impeccable. The views of the mountains are amazing and the backyard is a peaceful oasis. Our 14-year-old Border Collie girl was impressed with the artwork and couldn't stop staring at one of the paintings! Thank you so much, Christine, for allowing us to bring her with us. To anyone considering a stay here, just do it! We would book this place again in a heartbeat.

will go back

the house, yard and neighborhood were excellent. we picked this place for the neighborhood and yard for our family dog - perfect choice. owner was accessible and helpful. will definitely go back. only one little thing about the walk in shower for my senior age parents - it is an exaggerated tapering to the drain, not flat or level inside the shower - but we managed together. the walk in shower was another reason for selecting this location for the walk in access. Oh the pellet stove was fun and easy to operate. the views were perfect any time of day. And we enjoyed the daily walks with the dog - and thanks to the owner for the extra dog poop bags and chocolates.

ABQ in the winter

Have stayed here before during the summer and it was terrific! This time lows were in the 20’s and it was cold and snowy in ABQ. This terrific little townhouse doesn’t have a furnace. Only a pellet stove and space heater. Wasn’t warm enough for this Arizonan! Couldn’t keep the pellet stove working without smoking and that bothered husband’s asthma so we were a bit chilly. Never thought to ask if there was a actual furnace. So will keep it on our summer/fall vacation schedule.

6 night stay

I have never left a negative review. But, I thnik anyone staying here should at least know our experience. On the plus side the location, views, neighborhood, and safety are second to none; top notch. Now, regarding host response / follow through and cleanliness .... that is where it all fell down. Our first full day there, saturday, we went to use the dishwasher for the first time and we saw hair stuck all along the inside of the dishwaaher sidewall - it looked like mens razor stubble. I sent her a text with a picture....she didnt seem shocked or grossed out, no apology, she just said okay and texted back she would send someone by monday - well, monday came and went with no help. We never used the dishwaher while there, and re-washed any dishes already in the kitchen that we wanted to use by hand. It was a first for us, and my wife, family and I are avid travelers and never have experienced anything like this. Additionally the house seemed like it needed a very deep clean, and the furniture was very old and run down. Certainly not upscale - as advertised. I would not recommend, and will not be back. As I said, the host said she would help us, but just never did.
