Turtlehouse Perfection

This rental was as advertised. Location is in a nice part of town, convenient to grocery store and restaurants. We were attending an Archery tournament at Balloon Fiesta Park and it was only about a 15 minute drive. House was clean and the outdoor setting was private and lovely. Will definitely stay here again if we make it back to Albequerque!

Best VRBO we have ever used!

Turtle House was absolutely perfect! It was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The location was ideal—peaceful yet convenient—and the space felt luxurious and thoughtfully designed. Every detail was just right, and we truly couldn’t find a single thing to critique. It exceeded our expectations in every way. We would absolutely recommend Turtle House to anyone and would stay here again in a heartbeat!

The Turtle House was a great option for us. We don't rent homes often, but this was an easy prosess with a great 3 bedroom property. Lots of natural light with a great backyard sitting area. Thankyou for including amenities like coffee and charcoal for the bbq.We will definitely plan to stay here again.

We love the Turtle House

The only issue was the level of hot water in the master shower. It seems like the nozzle is set to deliver water that is just a little warmer than warm. The sinks and other bathroom was fine.

Cute house with great backyard

The house was perfect for our stay in Albuquerque while we went on several winter birding excursions. The location was convenient to many hiking trails. We loved the backyard landscaping and the house was outfitted with everything we needed.

Great place

This was a great little house! The ability to use the garage made it feel like home (and kept the car cool!). The location is perfect, very close to trails and the Sandia peak while also being near enough to shopping that nothing felt inconvenient. We would definitely stay here again if we come back to Albuquerque!

Fun little mini-vacation in Albuquerque

Met my Mom and brother here for a few days, since we each live in different corners of the USA, to explore ABQ and the surrounding areas. What a cute little house for a home base! Location was great, very safe and quiet, house was very clean and everything worked as it should. The back yard patio is such a great place to relax and drink coffee in the early morning hours. We highly recommend the Turtle House and would definitely stay there again if visiting ABQ!

Nice house.

Enjoyed staying in the Turtle House in Albuquerque. Was there almost two weeks. Great location and nicely equipped home. Two problems -- could not figure out the coffee pot and could not figure out how to use the tv system. When I tried to watch golf on CBS, the system wanted to charge a fee. Neither of these two issues was a big deal, just a minor inconvenience. The house, the garage and the neighborhood were not disappointing.
