Casita Don Manuel
A guest from GRAPEVINE, TX recommends this property.
Stayed for 3 days in April, 2013
This was our second time at Casita Don Manuel - it is a very cute little house in the neighborhood south of the plaza - perfect for two people, makes you feel like you live there. Kokopelli Managemant has always treated us well, with a style that is both professional and personal.

Great location, needs a refresh
A guest from Mercer Island, WA recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in April, 2013
Kokopelli was very professional and helpful. The Casita Don Manuel, although very well located, needs a refresh. It would benefit from a paint job, cleaning the mold from the tub enclosure grout, the hole by the tub, and a better bed. We did not let this bother us, enjoying our visit to Santa Fe thoroughly. Thank you Kokopelli.

Holiday Hiatus
A guest from Oklahoma City, OK recommends this property.
Stayed for 8 days in December, 2012
Casita Don Manuel was perfect for exploring Santa Fe for my first time. A quiet neighborhood filled with beautiful casitas. It's location near galleries, the Plaza, restaurants, the market, the railroad and grocery stores made it seem like home away from home. Walking everywhere would have been a simple feat but the car made getting around cozy and simple.My Christmas morning photography walk in the neighborhood produced both wonderful memories and fine pictures. That we had fresh snow for the morning was beautiful and stunning.I will definitely stay in a Kokopelli property again, and it may be Casita Don Manuel.

Casita Don Manuel
Bradley W. from Newcastle, WA recommends this property.
Stayed for 6 days in September, 2012
Overall a good experience and good location. The unit could have been cleaner, especially the dishwasher, which had dirty dishes in it and had very dirty, smelly standing water. We had to run the dishwasher in sanitary mode before using it to clean our dishes. This was a short term rental which required a $200 cleaning fee, which is excessive. Although we like to return the unit in the same condition as received, it is an imposition to request guests to take out the garbage bins for weekly collection. We were advised that there were certain written materials, including rules and instructions for the casita in the unit, but they weren't there. Pillows in armoire did not have pillow cases. Despite these things, we had a good stay.

Never again
Kevin G. from Augusta, GA does not recommend this property.
Stayed for 17 days in August, 2012
Casita was hard to find. Finally found it and walked into dirty room. Cobwebs, dirt on top of fridge, stove vent and under couch. Faucet leaked, stereo speaker on and off. Bed old and saggy. {my back is just getting better} tiny tv's w/ limited channels. Lounge chair outside belonged in a crack house. Staff sweet and apologetic, blamed everything on owner. I should get a partial refund. Used different company for rentals in past w/ great results. Local realtor referred you. Finally, write up claimed 5 minute walk to Plaza ! Most people could'nt run a five minute mile. No need to continue......

Pleasant and relaxing
A guest from EDMOND, OK recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in August, 2012
Overall, our stay at this property was very pleasant and relaxing. Unfortunately, the weather turned quite hot while we were there. With no air conditioning and numerous skylights, the house warmed up to an uncomfortable temperature during the day. By opening windows and running several fans, we were able to cool the house down in the evening. Most of the year, the lack of air conditioning would not be a problem but in the dog days of August, it was uncomfortable.

Comme ci, comme ca
A guest from New York, NY does not recommend this property.
Stayed for 6 days in May, 2012
This is a cute property for one person, not up to three as advertised. It was clean except for the rug and under furniture which apparently had not been vacuumed in ages. Decorations are pleasant. The neighborhood is quiet and the neighbors are nice. Just a few minutes from town and other spots. Personnel are patchy when it comes to professionalism - some are great, some in a hurry to leave work, but this is typical of the area and should be expected in SF. I would stay on this property again for a short visit - convenient and safe.

Romantic casita
A guest from New Haven, CT recommends this property.
Stayed for 14 days in April, 2012
Casita Don Manuel is a delightful little place, five minutes by bike to the plaza. We stayed for two weeks and spent lots of time thinking how, with a little care, the casita could be perfect.It needs a thorough deep cleaning. The floors need a scrub and polish, the throw rugs should be replaced, and the fireplace front needs a good wash or new paint. The bed linens and spread are tired. We were unable to connect with either the tv or Internet. The place itself is lovely with a very usable patio, but we wouldn't return if it remained in the same condition.

A Very Nice Little Place
Patrick K. from GRAPEVINE, TX recommends this property.
Stayed for 3 days in March, 2012
This is a very cute little house, perfect for two people, located in a residential area a few minutes drive from the square. The house is not fancy, just very comfortable, and the management company people were all very professional. I plan to return in the future.

Casita Don Manuel
Reviewed by: A guest recommends this property.
Stayed for 34 days in August, 2011
Great location. Sweet little property. Need to update the tv/DVD system. And maybe the Internet which works well but is cumbersome. The Kokopelli staff vacillated between very attentive and hard to contact and slow to respond. The booking process was less than satisfactory although I did end up with a place I enjoyed. I had originally booked a two bedroom and subsequently needed to reschedule to a one bedroom, due to Kokopellis scheduling issues. And I paid the same for a lesser property.

The place is pretty hard to find. Needs an iron and ironing board. There are visiting skunks who come every night. Would make sitting out back a little difficult for some. Overall it was nice.

The casita was spacious, with adequate amenities. The patio was lovely, parking great, secure locks on doors, excellent water pressure and temp. The general cleanliness was just adequate, certainly not sparkling (tile floors and area rugs seemed dirty). We would book with Kokopelli again, just not this casita.

Geraldine L. from Phoenix, AZ does not recommend this property.
Stayed for 4 days in April, 2010
I am incredibly disappointed with being charged for the condition of the disposal dishwasher which obviously was in that condition at check in. You will not accept that I did not shove an excessive amount of food down the disposal in my short stay. In Monday night out Friday am. Ate out at the workshop I attended for the most of the week and take out. You should have checked the trash. That is where the take out food was. there is a significant amount of cleaning maintenance fee that this should be covered in. You should have charged the person who was in the casita prior to my stay.

Property Manager Response:
Response from Kokopelli Property Management
The owner was the last guest in the house and the charge was made to the guest because the guest left the house with multiple problems with the appliances. There were no problems with the disposal on the pre-inspection for the arrival of the guest.

Santa Fe & Casita Don Manuel - A great combination
Reviewed by: Francis B. recommends this property.
Stayed for 5 days in October, 2009
The Casita Don Manuel was a very pleasant small home near the center of Santa Fe. Although that walking distance is more like 15 minutes to the Plaza, it is not bad and yet the Casita is quiet and peaceful. The kitchen is well equipped, the bed is comfortable and the bath is quaint. The TVs are a bit small but there are two of them and the cable internet connects you to the world. The outside garden is wonderful. The inside fireplace is a real upgrade to the living room... open a door before using using it, or you may get a little smoke. All in all, it is a wonderful value for the money. The fees and insurance are a stiff % of the total cost but the owner has definite pride in the place.I'd come back.

Casita Don Manuel
A guest from Carmel, IN does not recommend this property.
Stayed for 5 days in September, 2009
I was not satisfied with the stay at Don Manuel. I stayed in another property from The Management Group a year ago, and was much more impressed by that place. It was larger, cleaner, closer to town, and the same price per day - a much better deal, and I was expecting the same from Casita Don Manuel and Kokopelli. Unfortunately, it fell short in all areas. Also, a neighbor of the property informed us that there had been many robberies in the neighborhood, which added some anxiety to the stay.

Property Manager Response:
This is one of our more popular and affordable one bedroom casitas. Some guests come for a second visit. This guest called on a Friday from the Grand Canyon and our office staff was very accomodating in trying to help him find an affordable casita for arrival the next day. She even arranged to meet him on a Saturday, when our office was closed , to process his payment as well as reducing the rent to $100 per night based on his very limited budget. The south capital area of Santa Fe is one of the most popular areas of the city. Unfortunatley, there are crimes in all parts of the city - it's a sign of the times.
