Great for family
This is a great house for a family to stay. Lots of space. Great living area and kitchen. All around very clean. The neighborhood was calm and quiet. It was also very safe. People were out and about walking at all points in the day, even after dark. It was easy to get to Ski Santa Fe and back along with all the other interesting points in town. I would definitely stay there again.

Great girlfriend getaway!
Palace Gem is the best VRBO rental any of us had ever stayed in. It was just as advertised on the website. The location was outstanding, the house was as pictured with a gourmet kitchen, the beds were all comfy & the bathrooms were nicely modernized. The house was immaculate. We didn't use the patios because we were busy exploring as much as we could in a 4-day stay. We highly recommend this rental if you're staying in Santa Fe.

It was so nice to be able to walk to both the plaza and Canyon Road! The outdoor decks and yard were good for our dog and the kitchen had all we needed.

Beautiful Santa Fe base home
Brought international friends to Santa Fe for 3 nights. Clean, quiet, easy to cook in, awesome bathrooms, comfortable beds, nice bedside reading light. Bring your own coffee and tea as not provided, unfortunately. Living room has gathering space for a group of 5-6. 20 min walk to the plaza for Indian Market . 10 min walk to galleries . Super place to base out of . Plenty of parking. 20 Min walk to the best look out for sunrise or sunset .

Wonderful stay in Santa Fe
This property was perfect for 6 of us who came to enjoy all that Santa Fe has to offer. It is a fantastic home just a 10 minute walk from the plaza. It is beautifully decorated and furnished with a well-stocked kitchen, comfy beds, and plenty of room. It is located in a quiet residential neighborhood and is perfect for a group of people who may have varied interests - some who may wish to just stay in and relax, and others who are on the go. Beautiful historic property! We would definitely stay here on a return trip.

The house was just as nice as the pictures made it out to look. It is indeed a short walk to the town square, and the Compound Restaurant. The beds were comfortable, the linens were nice. The host was very responsive with our questions. We really enjoyed our time there!

Wonderful home, wonderful lication
We had a terrific stay at this property over the Christmas holidays. Location could not be better and home was very comfortable. Leslie was a very responsive landlady. One teeny weeny suggestion - it would be good to get a space heater for the master bathroom during the winter. It was very chilly.

Overall lovely house but could use a few more amenties
This was a truly lovely house in a nice neighborhood. It just could use a few more details: A scuff mat at the front door, a couple of extra blankets, a little more tableware (juice glasses, plates and bowls and silverware) for a group of six, a few more large towels, curtains for the garage bedroom, queen bedroom TV cabinet not good as bedroom bureau.
