Perfect for two couples or an extended family party, these lovely units are located on the grounds of one of Santa Fe's architectural treasures; the historic McKenzie/Irvine House.  This home was the first in Santa Fe to feature a pitched tin roof and exemplify a Gothic Revival style of architecture.  This beautiful home was built in 1881 and has an Historic Santa Fe Foundation plaque.  The suite and free-standing casita share a beautiful, private interior courtyard replete with peach trees and a table with umbrella: perfect for lazy afternoons in the high desert sunshine. This charming property is only three blocks from the historic Santa Fe Plaza and just one short block from the Georgia O’Keeffe museum and the new Santa Fe Convention Center. For breakfast, eat in the courtyard or wander to one of several enticing neighborhood cafes, including our favorite: "Clafoutis" a tasty French bakery and cafe on Guadalupe Street.

The Casita is a charming restored adobe casita.  It is approximately 430 sq. ft., featuring a bedroom with a queen bed, and an adjacent sitting room with a brand new, fully-equipped modern efficiency kitchen.  The sitting room has a pullout futon for an additional guest.  Amenities include a private bath, cable TV, wireless internet, luxurious towels and linens, housekeeping upon check-in and check-out, coffee service and the shared, beautiful, private courtyard.  Off-street parking is included as well.

The Suite is located within the historic McKenzie-Irvine House.  The Suite is very spacious (about 630 sq. ft.) and has a large bedroom with a king bed plus a sitting room with a pullout futon couch.  The Suite offers the same amenities as the Casita, except for the kitchen. Instead, the Suite has a "breakfast bar" equipped only with a small fridge, microwave, coffee maker, cups, wine glasses, bowls and utensils.  It has a desk and workspace area, and an airy feel due to the high ceilings and ample natural light.  It also opens up to the private, shared courtyard and patio.  Off-street parking is included as well.

Both of these units are decorated in a modern and contemporary adobe style.  The colors, linens and artwork simply burst with finesse.  If you are looking for a tranquil and convenient experience a short walk to the Plaza, located in one of Santa Fe's historic homes, these little jewels are perfect for you!
