About the host
Hosted by Arlene Cervantes
The Rispoli family are the proud owners of La Perla in Old Town. Having traveled a great deal , they know how important the little things can be and take delight in providing a "home away from home" for our visitors from around the world. Rob spent decades providing mortgage services to families throughout the U.S. These days you're most likely to find him working or hanging out in the courtyard he lovingly cares for. As only the third owners in one hundred years, we are committed stewards to this special historic property for all to enjoy...The Rispoli Family
Why they chose this property
The Rispoli family moved a great deal and while Tempe, Arizona was our base we lived in Palo Alto, CA, Minneapolis, Durango, CO, Greenville, SC AND Albuquerque. As Tempe and the Phoenix area grew, we decided it was the right time to relocate to a smaller city and a less stressful lifestyle. One day, while on a business trip to Albuquerque, Rob noticed a for sale sign being pounded into the ground in front of a just-renovated Old Town property. He stopped, greeted the owner, went inside, called Phyllis and the rest as they say is history! We love our property and want you to feel as comfortable and relaxed as we do everyday when we greet the day. Come stay with us and enjoy the very best of our town in old town...!
What makes this property unique
You can park your car and walk from La Perla to the Old Town Plaza, 3 museums District, and the Sawmill Marketplace. It's only a 2-3 minute walk (really) to Tiguex Park, or the Old Town Plaza with its 200 year-old church, gazebo, restaurants and shopping. You'll find amazing SW and Native American jewelry. Caution: If the prices and too good to be true, that's a tipoff that it's probably not authentic!
Our guest book lists favorite New Mexican restaurants, local cafes, and fine dining. The Sawmill Marketplace is a very cool food hall with 20+ vendors and lots of outdoor dining in the warmer months.
The Summer months offer live music venues around the Old Town neighborhood. We are one mile from the Bio-Park's Aquarium and Botanical Gardens. Only an hour's drive to Santa Fe, you can also hop on the 'Railrunner' in downtown and enjoy a leisurely trip at a reasonable price.
