Casita Don Manuel is an oasis of quiet and charm within the South Capitol neighborhood of downtown Santa Fe. The one-bedroom home is tucked away on a secluded residential lane and surrounded by adobe walls. As you linger over your morning coffee or evening cocktails in the lushly landscaped private courtyard, you might forget just how close you are to shops, restaurants, and historical sights. For instance, in just 15 minutes you can stroll to Santa Fe Railyard, a former transportation hub that’s now chock-full of galleries, markets, and eateries. Only a 20-minute walk away are San Miguel Mission, the country’s oldest church, and Loretto Chapel, with its must-see helix staircase. And in less than a half-hour you can walk to the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum and Santa Fe Plaza, the National Historic Landmark that’s home to more shops and galleries as well as the Palace of the Governors. If you want to hop in your car—and Casita Don Manuel has its own parking spaces, so you don’t have to worry about circling the block in search of a spot—you can be at Museum Hill and the galleries of Canyon Road in less than 10 minutes. Or drive a bit longer and hike Atalaya Mountain, climb Thompson Peak, or hit the slopes of Ski Santa Fe. A superb location isn’t the only reason to stay at Casita Don Manuel, however. A Pueblo Revival-style charmer, the adobe home is a cheery, bright retreat. Skylights and French doors let in plenty of sunlight; the white-painted viga ceiling beams, the tiled floor, and the wood-burning kiva fireplace add traditional Southwestern flair. With its well-cushioned leather sofa and roomy armchair, the living room invites you to kick back and watch TV, read, or chat over nibbles and drinks. That sofa, by the way, opens into a queen-size bed, so that Casita Don Manuel can sleep four people in all. Numerous restaurants are close by, but sometimes eating in is more relaxing (and easier on the wallet). Luckily several grocery stores and markets are nearby as well, and the casita has a kitchen fully equipped with appliances, gadgets, cookware, and tableware. You can savor your meal at the dining area’s table for four or outside in the courtyard, at the bistro table for 2\. You can cook as well as dine alfresco, courtesy of the charcoal grill. The bedroom is furnished in the same relaxed Southwestern style as the rest of Casita Don Manuel. In addition to the spacious king-size bed, it includes a desk where you can set up your laptop and log on to the free WiFi. With an armoire and a closet, the bedroom offers plenty of storage. Whether your dream vacation entails exploring the mountains and desert, visiting galleries and museums, admiring Native American culture and centuries-old buildings, or simply soaking up the plentiful Santa Fe sunshine, you’ll find Casita Don Manuel the perfect retreat. So book your stay today, and make your dream vacation a reality! Permit#:16-00136878 Kokopelli Property Management Vacation Rentals: RunAwayGetAway to Santa Fe!

It totally met our needs for a 4 day stay. It has a small back yard which we enjoyed, tho not much sitting area. It's in a lovely neighborhood and walking distance to main SF attractions, and parking right in front.

At the intersection of one way road, the location was quiet and very little traffic. The backyard space is nice and a good spot for hanging out especially for our dog. Kiva fireplace makes it quintessential New Mexico. The furnishing are old, 30 year old dishwasher had note to be careful, waiting on parts to fix. King size bed is old and on springs, so every movement makes a noise. Two coffee machines with only one mini carafe. We had a couple wild visitors, not an extreme nuisance but needed to watch out at night in the backyard. We enjoyed our time, but it could have been more comfortable. ##### Brandi M.

The dishwasher and stove doors were wonky. Linens worn. But otherwise a great place. It had snowed and was too icy to take the route in info so it would be nice to be warned because there was a second easy to find direct way to get there. 7 days later road still not safe to use due to low temps. Not able to talk to someone during the day most times I called and response was often slow. Still recommend though! ##### Jana S.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property shown is exactly as illustrated: lovely, light filled, clean and well maintained. Renters should be prepared for initial disorientation in the maze of streets in the neighbourhood in which the home is located --- and about a one mile walk to the plaza. There are no restaurants super close (that we could find) so be prepared for more walking. Driving in the city historic district is not recommended due to one-way streets and parking restrictions. The home is also suitable for two people only --- it would be a crush with more than two. Beautiful garden to enjoy. Really a nice property and Kokopelli was easy and professional to deal with. ##### Susan Y. Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2015 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Michael T. 16 Aug 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Terrible It has become extremely clear that VRBO does NOT vet their properties that are posted on line. Inaccuracies are rampant. We will NEVER again use your company. This property had numerous deficiencies that were not only inconvenient, but DANGEROUS! Rust in the bottom of the microwave, warning signs on many appliances, NO AIR CONDITIONING! A TRULY TERRIBLE PROPERTY, especially for seniors. YOu should be ashamed to even post anything about that property. ##### Michael T. Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Robert P. 15 Jul 2023 Liked: Check-in Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### Uninhabitable summer rental I have visited Santa Fe many times over 15 years and have used Kokopelli many times with my spouse. Usually our stays are very good. Our stay at the Casita Don Manuel was horrendous. I would like a 50% refund. The a big issue was the uninhabitable heat conditions that we endured over two days and nights in a house that trapped the heat. I know that AC was not included in this particular property. Yet, the conditions were unbearable. We did not get much sleep at all because the heat lingered in the house and would not let up largely because the old refrigerator generated so much heat that the place stayed at over 90 degrees the whole time. Yes, the management provided fans but they were inconsequential, useless. A few of the Windows would not open because they were broken making the situation worse. The property should only be rented in winter until AC unites are installed. Aside from the major problem of the heat, the toilet is not properly fastened to the floor causing us to almost fall a few times. Next, the dishwasher door is broken and falls crashing to the floor. This heavy dishwasher door could potentially break someone’s foot if they don’t know about it. The kitchen faucet is loose and seems to be on the brink of falling off all together. The patio was littered with fruit - it hadn’t been swept in a while. A skunk lurks around the trashcans at night resulting in us having to close the bedroom window in order to keep this rather large creature out. The ##### Robert P.
