About this house rental
Enjoy a beautifully remodeled retreat just one block from Balloon Fiesta Park, where modern comforts and thoughtful details make it easy to settle in. This two-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath home in Albuquerque’s Northeast Heights offers inviting spaces for couples, families, friends, and traveling professionals.
Remodeled in April 2025, the home features a modern kitchen, comfortable bedrooms, refrigerated air conditioning, WiFi, a private patio, and a two-car garage. Whether you’re here for the balloons, a work assignment, or time with loved ones, you’ll have a welcoming place to recharge.
A SPECIAL LOCATION FOR BALLOON FIESTA
Being close to Balloon Fiesta Park brings something special to your stay. When weather and flight paths cooperate, you may see colorful balloons drifting directly over the home or landing nearby—a memorable Albuquerque experience.
The park is just down the street, making this a convenient base for early-morning launches and evening events. Check the organizer’s current pedestrian entrances and walking routes before heading out, as event access points and road closures can affect your route.
After an early start, return home for fresh coffee, breakfast, and a little downtime before your next adventure.
RECLINE, RELAX, AND STAY AWHILE
The living room is designed for comfortable evenings in. Put your feet up on the power-reclining leather couch or settle into the leather recliner, then enjoy your favorite entertainment on the 72-inch TV.
The LED fireplace adds a soft glow and relaxing atmosphere. Gather for a movie, share stories from the day, or enjoy a quiet night together in a space that invites you to slow down.
A MODERN KITCHEN AND WELCOMING DINING SPACE
Stylish cabinetry and quartz countertops give the remodeled kitchen a fresh, welcoming feel. Cookware, dishes, utensils, and meal-preparation essentials make it easy to enjoy meals on your own schedule.
Prepare breakfast before heading out, pick up ingredients for dinner, or bring home a local favorite. Complimentary New Mexico Piñon coffee adds a taste of the Southwest to your morning routine.
The dining table offers a comfortable place to share meals and plan tomorrow’s adventures. Adjustable modern lighting lets you set the mood for a bright breakfast or a leisurely evening together.
A COMFORTABLE KING BEDROOM
The primary bedroom features a quality king-size bed with cozy linens, creating a restful place to unwind after traveling or exploring.
An adjustable-height desk and comfortable office chair provide a dedicated workspace for catching up on emails, handling a few tasks, or planning your next outing.
AN ADJUSTABLE QUEEN BED WITH A MASSAGE FEATURE
The second bedroom offers a queen-size adjustable bed with a massage feature—an extra touch of comfort at the end of the day.
Find a comfortable position for reading or relaxing, then settle into quality linens for the night. It’s a welcoming space for another couple, a family member, or a friend traveling with you.
ONE FULL BATHROOM AND ONE HALF BATHROOM
The remodeled bathrooms offer convenience for guests sharing the home. Soft, thick towels, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash are provided to help you pack lighter.
Grab bars are installed in both the full bathroom and half bath for added support. Guests with specific mobility or accessibility needs are welcome to ask about the layout before booking to determine whether the home is a good fit.
YOUR PRIVATE PATIO
The patio features shaded seating for four and a barbecue grill, giving you another place to enjoy your stay.
Start with morning coffee, take an afternoon break, or gather for a relaxed dinner outside. Pick up something for the grill and enjoy an easy evening with good food and good company.
A PEACEFUL NORTHEAST HEIGHTS HOME BASE
Located in an established residential neighborhood, the home offers a quiet setting while keeping dining, shopping, recreation, and major roads within easy reach.
Refrigerated air conditioning helps keep the home comfortable during warmer weather, while WiFi makes staying connected easy. A two-car garage adds convenience for guests arriving by car.
DISCOVER TIN CAN ALLEY
Nearby Tin Can Alley is a fun destination for a casual meal or an evening out. This distinctive shipping-container-style food hall brings local eateries and a Santa Fe Brewing Company taproom together in a lively setting.

Check current reservations and entertainment schedules before heading out, then return to your own comfortable space afterward.
EXPERIENCE THE SANDIA MOUNTAINS
Head toward the Sandia foothills for hiking, biking, and open scenery, choosing an outing that suits your group’s interests and energy level.
For a different perspective, take the Sandia Peak Tramway and watch Albuquerque spread out below as you climb. Bring an extra layer and leave time to enjoy the views.
From a gentle walk to a more adventurous day outdoors, the mountains offer a memorable change of pace from city sightseeing.
EXPLORE HISTORIC OLD TOWN
Spend a day wandering through Old Town’s adobe buildings, courtyards, galleries, and shops. Browse Southwestern art and locally crafted jewelry, pause for a meal, and enjoy discovering a different side of Albuquerque.
Sampling New Mexican cuisine is part of the experience. Try red chile, green chile, or order “Christmas” for a little of both.
Nearby museums offer opportunities to explore art, regional history, and hands-on science, making this an outing you can shape around your group’s interests.
BALLOONING BEYOND THE FIESTA
The nearby balloon museum offers a chance to explore Albuquerque’s ballooning heritage beyond the festival itself. Consider adding a visit to learn more about the history and adventure behind the balloons that make the city famous.
DAY TRIPS AND SCENIC DRIVES
Convenient access to I-25 makes it straightforward to explore Albuquerque, visit Rio Rancho, or head north for a day in Santa Fe. Browse around the historic Plaza, visit galleries and shops, and enjoy a meal before returning home.
For a scenic alternative, explore the Turquoise Trail through communities along the eastern side of the Sandia Mountains. Leave time for stops and enjoy the journey as part of your outing.
Longer day trips to Cochiti Lake or the Jemez Mountains offer more opportunities to appreciate New Mexico’s landscapes. Check current access and conditions when planning your trip.
PRIVATE ACCESS AND EASY ARRIVAL
Guests enjoy exclusive access to the entire home, including the garage and patio. There are no shared spaces, so you can settle in and enjoy your stay at your own pace.
A digital keypad lock provides convenient, contactless check-in. Your arrival instructions and access details are included in the House Manual associated with your reservation.
