Amazing Location steps from Historic Old Town, Museums and Restaurants

Incredible find! Location Location Location. Casa Pearla is a comfy, cozy private two bedroom, 1 1/2 bath, two story townhouse with RARE two car garage located one street off Route 66 between historic Old Town and the gorgeous old Albuquerque Country Club area. Restaurants, shops and museums are less than a quarter mile away and the very popular food court in Sawmill is close too! About 1/2 mile West of Casa Pearla is our wonderful Albuquerque BioPark, Tingley Beach and the running/biking trails along the Bosque. Court houses, downtown, UNM and area hospitals are a quick 5 minute drive away.

Guests says Casa Pearla is their home away from home. The space is light-filled with stylish and comfortable furnishings, a smart TV, free WIFI, a well stocked kitchen with gas stove, dishwasher and refrigerator, a full sized washer and dryer, iron and ironing board with a half bathroom downstairs and a full sized private bathroom upstairs. Outside is a welcomining covered back patio, verdant side yard with roses bushes and a walled front court yard

Upstairs are the two bedrooms (1 queen/1 full) and full bath. The beds have luxury linens and memory foam mattresses that guests rave about! A great bonus is fabulous terrace off the second bedroom complete with a traditional hanging rista with little solar twinkle lights. The shared bathroom has a vanity with two sinks, a bathtub/shower combo and a large skylight that bathes the space in natural light. Soaps, shampoos and fluffy towels await and there is a hair dryer and even some first aid items too, just in case.

Often overlooked but so, so important comfort-wise is the air conditioning, I upgraded the air conditioning to central air instead of the common evaporative cooling that is still commonly used in Albuquerque (which necessitates cracking open a window to cool a room yikes! and can only lower temps by about 20-25 degrees). Another bonus at Casa Pearla is the two car garage. How convenient to be able to load and unload your luggage while keeping your belongings secure!.

Finally, it is important to me that my guests are comfortable while making many wonderful memories in Albuquerque staying at Casa Pearla. I invite you and look forward to the many return visitors and welcome new guests as well!

Property was beautiful. House was wonderfully decorated. There were fresh flowers on arrival and the host was gracious enough to leave coffee and water. Being able to park in the garage is a definite plus. Location is next to downtown and old town walking areas as well as the sawmill area which is great for casual dining. I would definitely stay again. Host was wonderful.

One of the best properties I have stayed at! Fully equipped home with everything you could possibly need. Bottle of wine waiting in the fridge along with quality coffee and a sweet snack. Communication with the host was exceptional. Loved the books, maps, and recommendations for restaurants and daytrips that were provided. Felt like staying in someone's home rather than a vacation rental. Fully equipped kitchen with everything you could possibly need including complete spice rack, dishwasher, pots, pans, and complete set of utensils for cooking. Courtyard is beautiful with multiple sitting areas. Will definitely be back!

I have been raving about this spot to my friends and colleagues since my stay last weekend, and find myself wanting to plan a much sooner return to Albuquerque than originally anticipated, in large part because of this booking.The house is well kept, the temperature control is phenomenal, the appliances are all either new or in excellent condition, and all the little amenities are very thoughtfully arranged. Despite packing plenty of snacks, I must confess that my partner and I couldn't help but clean out most of the coffee, snack bars, seltzers, and treats that made our arrival so much more pleasant.Alyce was phenomenally communicative, checking in to make sure we were all set, and left brilliant arrival instructions. I am delighted to recommend Casa Pearla to anyone inquiring.

So many things that we appreciate about this home and our visit to ABQ - a thoughtful host, beautifully decorated, clean, comfortable beds and sitting areas, spacious both indoor and outdoor spaces, well equipped kitchen & bathrooms, in home laundry, a two car garage, prime location near Old Town, markets, main roads, and so much more. The icing on the cake is really the host who communicated thoughtfully both through text and a sweet card that welcomed our stay. Thank you, Alyce!

Great to be within walking distance of old town. I’ve been to ABQ five times, and this is the best place I’ve stayed. Would definitely book here again. Reasonable price, great value.
