Wonderful house in a great location. Caroline was so warm, friendly, and helpful. Our favorite restaurants were Market Steer, The Compound, Vinaigrette, and Museum Hill Cafe. Santa Fe Cooking School was also fun for Jazz night and a cooking class. Can't wait to come back to Santa Fe and rent with Caroline again.

#### My stunning stay at Bellas Artes de Santa Fe

This Santa Fe house was even better than I expected. AQUI made me feel right at home and gave wonderful local recommendations. The house itself is gorgeous, and with four bedrooms, five bathrooms, and a pool, my family had plenty of space to spread out and relax. Honestly, it was hard to leave! I loved getting a tour before we settled in, which made everything easy and welcoming. This charming home truly captures the Santa Fe spirit, and the location is absolutely stunning. I know I’ll be dreaming about this place for a long time to come.

#### Amazing

I booked 448 Camino Monte Vista for my family while they were visiting Santa Fe. The house is amazing; it is so beautifully appointed. We spent many hours by the pool and enjoyed the quintessential indoor outdoor living that the Santa Fe climate and the house itself has to offer. Every detail from bedding, to linens, to robes, pool towels, living space, kitchen set up, bathroom and bedroom set up left us wanting for nothing except more time in the house. Thank you Aqui for making the week with my family perfect!

#### Santa Fe contemporary for family and friends

To appreciate Santa Fe contemporary design with and exquisite renovation, you must stay at BELLAS ARTES.

Thank you AQUI for the attention to detail, it was much appreciated.
