Permit #: 155445

Adorable authentic and historic adobe home located at 117 Quintana Street and an easy walk to the Plaza in the center of Santa Fe. The living room has a wood burning kiva fireplace and opens on to a large dinning area with built in cabinetry. The new dining room table will comfortably seat eight. The kitchen has been updated with new cabinets and counter tops. There is cozy back patio with a wood burning kiva fireplace, patio table & chairs and a lounge chair. The front and back are landscaped and on drip irrigation.

A stucco wall in the front provides privacy from the street. This home really captures the old charm of Santa Fe.

There is extensive natural light from all windows in all the rooms. The home is located on a quiet dead end street.

Perfect location

This house is an easy walk to downtown plaza area, the neighborhood is very quiet, and the kitchen is well-stocked. Great shower too. The driveway is as tiny as others have said. Multiple 1-2 steps might be hard for some, esp in the dark. Great stay!

Fun in Santa Fe

We stayed in a charming little adobe house. I can’t think of one thing that I’d change. For some travelers all the little step up or step down going from room to room might be a challenge.

charming house

Despite frosty temperatures outside, the house was warm, welcoming and comfortable. A reasonable walk to restaurants and the Plaza, easy parking for a large Subaru in the small driveway, plenty of kitchen supplies.

Charming Stay in the Heart of Santa Fe

We had a wonderful stay at this charming Santa Fe home! The location was perfect—just a short walk to the Plaza and all the shops and restaurants. The house was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed. We especially loved the outdoor patio, which was a great spot to relax and enjoy the morning or evening. The neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe. Communication with our host was seamless, making the whole experience even better. We can’t wait to come back and stay here again!

Great stay at Casa Carolina

We enjoyed our stay at Casa Carolina during our visit to Santa Fe. The property was as listed and suited our needs very well. The house was clean and well appointed. We were able to easily walk to the Plaza and the Railyard district from the house. The neighborhood was quiet and the area seemed very safe. Communication with Richard was great and he answered all of my pre-trip questions.

Great location, we could walk to town. It was fun to stay in an adobe home with all of the modern conveniences. The bed could be a little more comfortable but otherwise we loved our time there. Great location to stay to enjoy Santa Fe, we can’t wait to go back.

Our time

I liked the location and neighborhood. The house is an old property with all the charm that goes with it. There is also a bug infestation that the host is aware of, but chose not to disclose. There is mention of the bugs in the "House Manual" at the property, but not online. I had to kill and clean up the bugs several times a day. The bathroom and the bedroom were involved. The ceiling, walls, towels, shower curtain are all involved. The drip irrigation in the back courtyard is malfunctioning and spraying water everywhere with the noise that goes along with the water spray. This occurs early in the morning before sunrise right outside the bedroom window. The parking is tight, but doable. There was discloser about parking in the driveway, but also reference to parking on the street opposite the house. When I inquired did that mean on the street next to the house or on the other side of the street I was told as the email stated you can only park in the driveway. This is not true as there are numerous cars on side of the street. The arrival email, descriptions on the website and the "House Manual" contradicts each other in some cases.

Close to the plaza

Nice home within walking distance of the plaza. We didn't spend a lot of time there but the amenities were everything we needed for the two of us. It was described in the listing, but it's hard to picture until you're there - the parking situation is very tight. A few times, we couldn't park in the driveway because of other cars parked across the very narrow street.

Dog friendly retreat

2 blocks to the river park for walks, food bowl and water dispenser provided, neighborhood very walkable. Sante Fe was very dog friendly. Not suitable for people with mobility issues. Each room is on a different level. Bathroom is very small with challenging door swings for those with mobility issues. Great walled garden. Well appointed. Definitely recommend for most people.

Great place to stay close to downtown!

This house was perfect for our trip! It perfectly captured the character of Santa Fe. The house is adorable and clean, and had everything we needed. There was plenty of patio space to enjoy the weather outside. The parking area for the house is pretty small so consider what vehicle you bring. (I drive a small SUV and it was just right) Parking downtown can be difficult and expensive, so we were able to walk to the restaurants and shops quite easily and quickly. (About 10 min walk) I would definitely stay here again!!

Our favorite place to stay in Santa Fe

This was the second time we stayed here and we absolutely love the property. Great location near the Plaza, restaurants and museums. The house itself is lovely - well kept, cozy, and clean. The outdoor areas in back and in front are great for hanging out and drinking coffee in the morning, reading and eating dinner in the evening. We love staying there and will look to stay here whenever we’re in town visiting our kids and grandkids. 10/10.
