This property is the place to stay! It is located just far enough away from the crowd to ensure a quiet evening and a great night's sleep. The casita is very clean and very well kept. In addition, the host is very responsive and answers questions timely! Thank you!!!

Absolutely Perfect Stay – Peaceful, Beautiful, and Comfortable

I stayed here for about two weeks, and it was absolutely everything I needed. The space is beautifully decorated with antique Southwestern charm, giving it a unique and cozy feel. The kitchenette was super convenient, stocked with a variety of dishes and coffee options. The bathroom was spacious and just as thoughtfully decorated as the rest of the home.Even in June, the interior stayed cool—I barely had to run the AC. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and having TVs in both the bedroom and the main area was a nice bonus. The entire place felt very private, with a large parking area and beautiful pecan orchards surrounding the property. It truly felt like a vacation, even though I was in town for work.The area is great for pets with good recall, and the host provided helpful suggestions for local restaurants, many of which we tried and loved. Plus, it’s really close to all major areas in Las Cruces, making errands, dining, and exploring a breeze.I can’t recommend this place enough—it was the perfect mix of comfort, charm, convenience, and location.

Review of Stay at Casa Elena Casita

The casita was beautifully appointed. I left suggestions that the casita needed a broom for sweeping, scissors for the utensil drawer, can liners for the kitchen garbage, and the kitchen chair needed repair because it had a broken back which made sitting precarious. The large garbage can for our use had not been emptied at the weekly day, was very full, and very stinky which made coming and going to the casita unpleasant. Fortunately there was a back way around to avoid the garbage.

Beautiful Historical Mesilla

Very clean, comfortable, and tastefully decorated property. We loved the location near Mesilla. Daily walks through this historical district were a privilege. Lots of space to walk our dog as well. Check-in was easy, check-out was easy. Brought our own air fryer so we ate most of our meals at the property. Weather was glorious. Great stay. Thank you to our hostess.
