Great location

My family stayed in this home for 4 nights and we loved it. It is in a great location. Easy to get to Old Town and Downtown. Not too far from Meow Wolfe, Chimayo, the Fire and Ice cave, or even some of Route 66. Shariesse, our host, left toys out for the young one we were with, and she had a blast. The kitchen had plenty of utensils, cups, plates, and cookware. We enjoyed our stay.

Visit to grandkids

This is a lovely property with a great view. The home was cozy and stocked with all necessary items. We loved the local coffee left by Shariesse and Phyllis. More importantly the hosts were generous with their personal grandchildren items and left the house stocked with toys for our grandkids...including outdoor toys to play with in the BEAUTIFUL backyard.

Magnificent Get Away with Views Galore!

This is the BEST VRBO we have ever stayed at. Our hostess,Shariesse, literally thought of everything to ensure our comfort and enjoyment. The back yard has gorgeous mountain views and sunsets and sunrises are splendid. We saw balloons every morning!! The bird feeder becomes a riot of birds including gambrel quails. So much fun to watch. There are many resource materials available on things to see/do in the home as well as games, televisions, etc. Shariesse also left a welcome gift of hatch chilis, wine and ice cream. She checked in with us to make sure all was good. Wonderful place, wonderful lady.

Summer getaway

My husband and I needed a getaway from the Arizona heat. We required a house that accepted pets as we brought our dog. This house fit all our needs. It was clean, comfortable and WELL stocked with everything we could ever need. The backyard overlooks a golf course and several times we saw hot air balloons land there. Very cool. Being high desert many yards do not have grass. This yard has a very lush lawn in the back which was a treat for humans and dog alike, coming from the mostly grassless desert of Scottsdale. The owner was friendly and very attentive to our needs/comfort. One of my pet peeves when renting homes is the list of “chores” that the owner requires the renters to complete before checking out. I wonder why I pay a hefty cleaning fee if I have to wash sheets, empty the trash, etc. The owner of this home left no such instructions! Of course we tidied up before we left, but it was because we wanted to, not because we were told to. There is a large off leash dog park within walking distance, and a park with basketball and tennis not to far away. Most everything else we did required a hop onto the freeway, and while it was not too far from the home it was less convenient to restaurants/activities than I had hoped. Overall we were happy with our choice and would recommend this property.

We so enjoyed our stay despite the heat wave. Chariesse' s house is filled with lovely details making it so comfortable. We especially loved the back yard overlooking the golf course and beautiful views. The pheasants and their babies and all the other birds that visited the bird feeder were a delight. We will definitely come back when we're in the area and will recommend it to any friends visiting Albuquerque.

Kickin' Back in Albuquerque

The property was comfortable, well appointed, and very well maintained. With views overlooking the golf course with the Sandia Mountains in the background, we spent considerable time on the patio or glued to large windows, watching the abundance of wildlife and time go by as we had our morning coffee or evening cocktails. The hostess, Shariesse, is very friendly and easily available to help with anything about the home, or even recommendations about where to adventure or eat. The home is also convenient to a wide range of services and stores (including the grocery), and has easy access to the interstate, which makes auto sightseeing very easy. We would definitely stay at this home when in Albuquerque again!

Perfect Location

Ladera West is a beautiful and comfortable home with a fabulous location! We were in town for the collegiate national road races and this home was near the races and it backs up to a beautiful golf course with amazing views of the mountains! Coffee in the morning on the lovely patio with all the birds was so relaxing. The views are even better from the patio upstairs off the master. The kitchen is fully stocked for cooking. The hosts even checked in with us before hand and left out a bunch of wonderful games. We had such a wonderful stay!

This house is the best VRBO we’ve ever stayed in, and we’ve stayed in a lot! It’s super cute, beautifully decorated, and the owners literally thought of everything! We didn’t need a thing during our stay and there were even little surprises left around the house for us! I actually ended up ordering several things they have in this house on Amazon for my own house! We felt very safe here and the view is absolutely stunning! Sharie was super communicative and made sure she understood our needs and that everything went smoothly. It’s very easy access to I-40 and lots of restaurants around. We will be staying here every time we come back, if it’s available!

This house is everything that is advertised and more. Shariesse went above and beyond as a host from the initial phone call after booking to the welcoming gifts and recommendations on restaurants and things to do. It was centrally located to everything we wanted to do…hot air ballooning, Breaking Bad tour, museums, Sandia Peak. Beautiful wildlife was fun to watch both in the yard and on the golf course.

The Perfect Everything

From the moment we stepped into the townhome until the minute we left everyone was smiling. From the large kitchen window we had coffee/tea staring at the BEAUTIFUL backyard view of the Sandia Mountains and gorgeous Albuquerque skies. We were minutes from everything: Old Towne, airport, restaurants, mountain trails. But we didn't have to leave the backyard for sightseeing and entertainment - the 22 baby quails and their parents as well as the other adorable wildlife (finches, woodpeckers, butterflies, and rabbits) were delightful distractions. We had plenty of space for playing board games, revisiting our favorite episodes of Breaking Bad, and relaxing outside sipping coffee or tea. Shariese was the kindest and most gracious hostess. She made sure our stay was comfortable and memorable from start to finish. Everything in the home was well keep and oh so thoughtfully organized. Shariese really knows how to prepare for her guests. Our Father's Day vacation is one that we will cherish!

About the host

Hosted by Shariesse Taylor McCannon

We are a mother-daughter team who pay special attention to detail. We are Vrbo Premier Hosts, established in May 2015. We have had a lot of fun hosting and developing friendships

Critter watching is a favorite hobby. We have logged over 60 species of birds in the field guide that have come to the feeders. We like to watch the squirrels and bunnies play. We offer peanut butter, jelly, suet and seed. The baby quail are just darling

Sunrises and sunsets are beautiful from the backyard and veranda. It is peaceful to watch the mountains change colors in the evening from pink to purple to gray.

Why they chose this property

The views, of course ;-) Tesoro del Alma “Treasure of the Soul” is located on a golf course, and we can see for miles in all directions -- Sandia and Manzano Mountains to the east, city to the south, petroglyphs to the west, and open skies to the north. The colors of the mountain change throughout the day and in the evenings turn from pink to purple to gray. The two-story home is just the right size -- about 1591 square feet. It is peaceful to sit on the private veranda or fenced patio. More than 99 species of birds, including quail, finches, roadrunners, woodpeckers, and hummingbirds have visited the property. It's always fun to see hot air balloons glide over the house and sometimes land on the golf course just yards away. The backyard is well manicured with Kentucky Blue Grass, flowers, and vines. There is easy access to popular sites -- Balloon Fiesta Park, Sandia Peak Tram, Zoo, Old Town, Railrunner, Sawmill District, museums, Rio Grande River. There are several parks within walking distance -- a neighborhood park, 18-hole Disc course, tennis courts, playground, dog park and Petroglyph National Monument. It’s about 11 miles from Albuquerque International Airport. Just a mile from the interstate and minutes from hospitals, banks, grocery stores, and shopping malls. Santa Fe is about an hour away.

What makes this property unique

Spectacular views of golf course, mountains and petroglyphs from the patio, backyard, veranda, and thirteen windows and sliding doors. Hot air ballons glide overhead and land on the golf course. Baby quail visit the property in the spring and hummingbirds visit in the summer and fall.
