Wake to rooster's crowing and bird songs in the green and rural setting of Los Ranchos de Albuquerque.

A tapestry composed of incredibly rich and colorful threads- This is the fabric of Casita Chamisa bed and breakfast extraordinaire - where cultures past and present blend harmoniously in a rambling Spanish style adobe of mid-nineteenth century origins.

Established by Arnold and Kit Sargeant, Casita Chamisa was the first Bed and Breakfast in the Albuquerque area in 1984 and is currently one of Pamela Lanier’ s top choices.

Arnold will help you plan your vacation or free time with visits to the nearby Indian pueblos for fiestas, to mountain and desert areas of breath-taking beauty close to Albuquerque and around New Mexico, archeological sites, and ski areas. Rise early to jog along the tree shaded streets and acequias (irrigation ditches) of the North Valley, or stroll the paths by the river and through the Bosque at the Nature Center ten minutes away. Horseback rides can be arranged from a nearby stable. Eat at the excellent Mexican and Continental restaurants located in the Valley, often in delightful old Spanish houses.

Casita Chamisa is a 15-minute drive from the intriguing shops and galleries of Old Town Plaza, the Albuquerque Museum, the Indian Cultural Center, as well as the business center. It is a 20-minute drive from the airport and an hour away from Santa Fe.

Relax from your journey with a refreshing natural therapeutic massage in your room or by the pool. A certified licensed masseuse is available by appointment.
