5 star stay! An absolutely gorgeous property. The hosts have an incredible eye for styling and have thought of everything. It's an old house, so yes, it's got its quirks, but that is part of the charm. Loved how much space we had to spread out. We were able to use the hot tub/pool at their other property and it was wonderful too.

Absolutely beautiful home and decor, would not recommend for younger children. The pool is located a few blocks from the house and shared. The backyard is not inviting…no grass, mostly dirt and debris, large hole in the concrete. The hosts were wonderful; very attentive, friendly and helpful, customer service is 5 star!

Beautiful house
The Amador House has been nicely renovated and is a comfortable place to stay. The kitchen has plenty of workspace. The appliances are good. The neighborhood is the prettiest one in Las Cruces.

Highly recommend!
We loved our stay! The house and all its charm made our holiday away in NM feel really special. We had everything we needed to cook, hang out and watch movies, play games and read when we weren’t taking day trips to White Sands, Organ Mountains and the slot canyons.

Eventful weekend
The accommodations provided were satisfactory, as the residence was aesthetically pleasing, well-maintained, and conducive to relaxation. While we had several engagements to attend, it was comforting to return to a welcoming and comfortable environment. We had anticipated utilizing the pool facilities; however, there appears to have been a misunderstanding regarding its location.
The hosts were courteous and accommodating which was appreciated.

You won’t be disappointed!
What a fabulous find! The house is beautiful and well appointed. Clearly the owners are experts in hospitality; we wanted for nothing. We felt welcome, at home and very comfortable. The neighborhood is like taking a step back in history and yet is close to downtown. And, there is an excellent pool and hot tub!
