We're seasoned travelers from Austin, TX, and want to share what a wonderful vacation/family get together we had staying at Casa Tortola in Santa Fe. Our family including our son and family (2 young grandchildren) and small family dog just loved this property. It is located in the hills above Santa Fe with great views, is within walking distance of the downtown area, and all it offers. More importantly though is the house itself, a very functional family layout...an open floor plan with lots of windows to enjoy the views, a warm fireplace, generous dining area , game & TV rooms plus separate bedroom suite accommodations at opposite ends of La Casa so just right for grandparents on one side, and our son and his family with their privacy on the other. Outside, the patios provide for comfort & great views, And you're within walking distance of a pleasant park just down the hill and/or in an area friendly for some bicycling. During the winter the ski mountain is just 15 miles away, and in the summer clearly convenient to enjoy the Opera and related cultural activities.
Marian, the owner. has done a terrific job in making her property warm, comfortable, and don't see how one could be disappointed-- "5 Thumbs Up for Casa Tortola"! KLBAustin
