Hot Tub, 1bd/1ba, Nob Hill Home, King bed, W/D
Great host and location! Arriving before the weekend rush was perfect!

ABQ HUB of Sawmill District
This was the perfect place for us to land while traveling through to Phoenix. It was right off the highway and easy to get to. It was just adorable inside and outside too! Comfy beds and lots of thoughtful details provided. Would definitely recommend!

$0PetFee-Historic Adobe-Near RioGrande/OldTown/Zoo
Excellent location that is close to many restaurants and local hangouts. Perfect location for walking our small pups around the neighborhood. Also easy to get to downtown and any other locations in the ABQ area. Beyond location, Kate's space is comfortable and complete with all the amenities needed while traveling. Super clean and exactly as described.

The Cozy Corrales Casita (Little House)
I'm not the best at written reviews, but I must for Katrina and their casita. We had the best time at Katrina's casita. We visited the area for my partner's birthday and wanted something tucked away and quiet and relaxing, but also not too far out but close enough to some local food and breweries. When we found her casita online, we were impressed, but when we saw it in person, we were blown away with how perfect it is! It sits on the most beautiful property in one of our favorite cities, and is the most relaxing AirBNB we have had in 10+ years. And, for a casita, this place is huge! Designed beautifully inside and out. And every piece of furniture was well thought out and comfortable. Every detail of the casita was thought of! Katrina and family were so kind, warm, and inviting. She and her family were all super friendly and offered to help us make the best of our stay, without being overbearing. It was really a treat to stay here. And I would definitely love to return!

Casita Chiquita
Our stay was perfect. Candace was VERY accommodating allowing an early check in and a late check out making our traveling stress free. She checked on us when temperatures outside were unbearably warm making sure our air conditioning was keeping us comfortable. The off street parking was wonderful with lots of shade. Thank you for sharing your home. We would definitely stay again.

Casa Los Lugones
Extremely large Casita home! Two roomy bedrooms and nice bathrooms, a large kitchen (no oven) and tons of space to use! Enjoyed the bar area and large living room. You have a gated entrance with a remote, so you feel even more safe. The area this is located is very safe in Abq as it is. It was quiet and enjoyable. Bonita also offered use of the rooftop deck and the sunsets are incredible in Abq! Only thing I’d like to mention for other travelers: if you need a dark room and like to sleep in, each bedroom has a sky light, so you’ll wake up with the sun. I recommend bringing a sleep mask if you need it dark in the room in the morning. The beds are pretty firm with little give as well, so if you have any back problems, it may be a tough sleep. Otherwise, the space is great and I highly recommend it!

Old Town ABQ casita, attentive host, original art
We enjoyed our stay here. It was clean and well stocked all around. We were walking distance to old town and the sawmill market (flora restaurant was excellent). We had to head home a day early and Barbara was very understanding regarding this. We would recommend her place to stay. Thanks!

The Cozy Escape (PS5,netflix)
This was a great place to stay! Nice neighborhood, close to many shops and restaurants, and very comfortable.

Tucked-Away Casita w/Mountain Views & Fun Goats
This place is a little out of the way, but worth it if you're looking for a place that is, quiet and out of the city but not too far. Lot's of nice personal touches that make it feel very homey.

Old Town Lofts
My daughter and I stayed at Pete’s Place during our first trip to New Mexico. We wanted to stay near local shops and restaurants and have the ability to walk around and explore. Everything worked out perfectly! Next trip I’ll have to bring my husband so that we can visit the Outpost!

Barelas Bungalow -2 bed 2 bath close to everything
Fabulous house. Lovely patio! Had a wonderful time. Thank you.

Cellar 74: Wine Casita w/Hot tub
I had a great stay at Bennie’s Airbnb and would absolutely book again. I visit Albuquerque often and have noticed his listing a few times—it’s usually unavailable during my visits, which speaks volumes. So if you’re reading this wondering whether to book, let me just say: it’s often booked for a reason! The bed was extremely comfortable, the space had a unique and inviting vibe, and everything felt thoughtfully put together. The laundry machines were modern and surprisingly efficient, the shower had great pressure and hot water, and the entire space was quiet—I didn’t hear anything out of the ordinary during my stay. Bennie clearly takes pride in maintaining a high-quality stay. Highly recommend.

Secure Parking - Private Studio -Downtown/Old Town
Very beautiful Casita!! We felt at home the second we stepped inside! We definitely will be back!

Ultimate Views
The views were even more beautiful than expected. The kitchen was amazing full of room and just a very comfortable home to be in with my family. Would definitely stay here again and there’s a top choice when coming to the area each year.

MidCentury Midtown home (Northeast) Albuquerque
Very charming & cozy home. Beds are very comfy and options for soft or firm pillows was the best touch. They even provide a white noise gizmo. Communication was easy & Abby was very helpful with recommendations. I would happily stay again.

Downtown Casita / Guesthouse
It’s nice to see the beautiful manicured yard. My husband and I appreciate the walk in shower. We love staying here whenever we’re in Albuquerque.
Dog friendly homes in Albuquerque

The Sandia House
Lovely space, very clean and communicative host. We did book it specifically for the yard and , unfortunately, they are mid-xeriscaping and our dog was unable to use the yard at all due to the spiny burs all over. Once the yard is done, we would be willing to book again.

Beautiful in Burque!
VERY clean AirBnB. Great location and neighborhood is walkable. Kitchen is well equipped. Super cool to meet the turtle in the backyard. We would definitely stay again. Some mentioned street noise being a problem, but we didn't notice it.

Beautiful 3 bed 2 bath family home with RV parking
Great house with a big backyard that my children loved. It's in a central location to a gym, grocery store, and other entertainment options. Highly recommend!

Casita Amarilla - Great Location for Travel Nurses
My partner and I stayed here for nearly two months with our cat. We really enjoyed our time in the unit. We work from home and had plenty of space, although the wifi is a little slow. There is not a whole lot within walking distance, but if you have a car it's pretty central to everything in Albuquerque. The neighborhood was pretty safe and quiet.

Cozy 2 Bedroom House in Downtown Albuquerque
We enjoyed our stay at Luis’s well-appointed home. The neighborhood is full of little architectural gems and the house is within walking distance of cafes, coffee shops, a grocery store, and so much more. The house had everything we needed and was very clean. The porch is an absolute bonus and a great place to spend cool, bright Albuquerque mornings.

Beautiful Retreat Home 2 miles from Dtwn ABQ
We had an extremely comfortable stay. We arrived at 5pm with 95F outside, but the home was pleasantly cool inside and stayed that way for our entire visit. The swamp cooler was great! Everything was spotlessly clean and well-equipped. Lots of open space on shelves and countertops for our things. Very comfortable furniture and linens. We really appreciated the shaded front patio and beautiful back garden with mature trees & shrubs, both of which felt very private. Top notch host! We will be back!

~Southwest Escape~ Cozy Family & Pet Friendly Home
This place is great! It has a HUGE yard that my pups loved. Would definitely go back!!

Dreamy Adobe Casita: Your Quiet Getaway 1-5 guests
Eric's Casita is straight out of a Southwest fairytale! This was the most thoughtfully decorated and stocked Airbnb I have ever stayed in. The natural lighting was unreal, adding to the serenity of my stay. The linens were soft, the bed comfortable, and the chaise lounge a dream to read on. I imagine this place being even cozier in the colder seasons as there is a wood burning fireplace in the living room. You (and your pets) have to stay here if you're visiting Albuquerque! Close to Corrales, you get to explore a whole different side of the city, though Nob Hill and Old Town are just a skip and a hop away. Could not recommend this place more!

Your guide to Albuquerque
All About Albuquerque
Albuquerque is one of New Mexico’s cultural hubs, a desert city steeped in the history of its Indigenous peoples and Spanish heritage. This rich heritage is exemplified in its local art and history museums, and through its Pueblo architecture with curved edges and earthen hues. As you wander the 18th-century Old Town, red brick walkways lead you to the Old Town Plaza, where the church of San Felipe de Neri towers above shops selling turquoise jewelry and artwork. You’ll also find cafes and restaurants serving New Mexican staples like chile rellenos, carne adovada, and plenty of green chili-flavored dishes.
Route 66 runs through the center of Albuquerque, dotted with bars and nightlife offerings casting a neon glow on the iconic highway. Just outside the city, the Sandia Foothills provide ample opportunities for hikes, and you may just spot mule deer, rabbits, and the occasional rattlesnake.
To cool off during the summer, you can paddle board along the mighty Rio Grande that runs through the city. Come winter, you’ll find skiing and snowboarding less than an hour away in the Sandia Mountains.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Albuquerque
With more than 300 days of sun throughout the year, bright days and blue skies are never in short supply here. The desert climate may imply constant heat, but seasonal weather conditions and temperatures can vary drastically. Albuquerque offers the Downtown Growers’ Market during the summer months, which can reach points of sweltering heat, but frequent afternoon showers — July through October is the rainiest time — help keep things comfortable. Winter conditions see temperatures often plummet to freezing. However, the area is relatively arid during this period, at least in the city. The surrounding mountains get inundated with snow during this time, providing excellent skiing opportunities.
The shoulder seasons in Albuquerque are popular due to mild temperatures for exploring the city and surrounding nature parks. Fall is a particular favorite for vacation rentals partly due to the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta in October. This nine-day event attracts nearly a million visitors and more than 500 hot-air balloon operators from around the world. The celebration includes twilight balloon runs, balloon competitions, chainsaw carving, vendors, street food, and fireworks.
Top things to do in Albuquerque
Petroglyph National Monument
This anthropological site on the edge of town is one of the continent’s largest petroglyph sites, with more than 25,000 basalt etchings dating back to nearly 2,000 B.C. Miles of trail systems cut through the stark and beautiful landscape filled with scrub brush and volcanic rock that is home to several species of lizards and snakes, and fields of wildflowers.
Albuquerque Museum
Located just off Route 66, the Albuquerque Museum focuses on the region’s unique style of art and storied history. Permanent exhibits showcase Indigenous art styles in the form of paintings and hanging sculptures. Photo galleries detail the region’s local history, peoples, and cultures.
La Luz Trail
For a strenuous adventure in the Sandia Mountains, the La Luz Trail is a popular challenge. The path runs less than nine miles with an elevation gain of 3,200 vertical feet. Along the way, you’ll be treated to dramatic views of the Albuquerque landscape, particularly at the end, where you can grab a bite with a panoramic view at 10,300 feet above sea level before taking a tram down the mountain.
