About this house rental
Permit #: 157076
Palace of the Sleeping Dog-Tres is a newly renovated townhome situated in a single building comprising 3 distinct units, each with a separate entrance. Located at the corner of East Palace Avenue and Paseo de Peralta, this lovely townhome is just a 5 minute walk (0.3 miles) to the Plaza in the center of historic Santa Fe. A car is unnecessary.
This historic property, renovated in 2019 to a very high standard ensuring quiet accommodation , has an open spacious feeling with abundant natural light.
The home opens to the light filled open-concept living/dining/kitchen with hardwood floors throughout. The living room is designed for comfortable entertaining or relaxing, and the living room features a wood burning kiva fireplace. The immaculate kitchen is tastefully appointed with high-end finishes and top-of-the-line appliances. The master suite features a King bed. The two guest bedrooms each have a Queen bed. The three bathrooms, each with a walk-in shower, exhibits the same level of tasteful finishes found throughout the house.
There is a shared laundry facility (for the 3 townhomes) on premises with with a full size washer and dryer available upon request. The access is generally intended for guests staying one week or more.
Welcome to the Palace of the Sleeping Dog: What’s that name all about? We chose it because:
A. It relates to a Santa Fe legend,
B. We love dogs,
C. No one has a greater talent for relaxing and sleeping than a dog!,
D. Our lovely building is on Palace Avenue and who doesn’t want to highlight an address like that, and
E. If your dog would like to join you on your trip, Welcome!
Now regarding that Santa Fe legend: The famous Santa Fe based novelist Richard Bradford related that when describing to visitors how to get to his house (which, by the way, was very close to where you are now, just up Canyon Road), in the absence of street signs (this was in the 1950’s) he would tell them to “Turn left at the sleeping dog.” There was a large shaggy dog who spent most of every day napping in a shady patch on Camino Del Monte Sol, so reliably that he served as a landmark.
But the point of Bradford’s story goes beyond the literal. In Santa Fe, we understand the value of going slow, of marching to the beat of our own drum, of going along with change but not too fast and not too completely, and yes, of knowing how to enjoy a fine spot of shade on a summer day.
And should you feel so inclined, you might engage in a few other canine meditations, under the gaze of the meditating dog you will find in your apartment. Is there some situation in your current life, for instance, where you might be better advised to let sleeping dogs lie?
Do you sometimes venture into places or situations unwise for anyone but mad dogs and Englishmen?
Do you pursue things doggedly? Are you currently dogged by any worries that you perhaps could let go of?
Rest, relax, take a stroll to the Plaza (5 minutes), sit on the porch with a cup of coffee or drink. Or for more ideas on how to enjoy Santa Fe, see the guest manual.
Tommy Macaione Park is a short block away for enjoying the outdoors or walking your dog (please pick up after though). Tommy is a famous local Santa Fe artist that used to paint wonderful landscapes from the park venue.

We stayed three (3) nights for a wedding event and the unit was perfect for the family. Appliances and AC units are in great condition and it is evident that the property manager maintains the property very well. The TV remote stopped working and Richard replaced the batteries within 15 minutes of notification. Talk about service 🤗. We highly recommend this rental.

The unit was spacious and perfect for all of us to come together in the common areas. Each bedroom with its own bath was such a plus. The location could not be better, very close to the Plaza, Canyon Road, and other places on the Paseo de Peralta. Even though the Palace is on a busy intersection, we could not hear any street traffic noise at all, due to the adobe soundproofing. The house handbook was very detailed and informative. All and all, a terrific stay and time had by all!

Our group was under a mandatory evacuation from forest fires 3 hours away. Richard was incredibly helpful in assisting us with extra parking as well as an extra day’s stay before evacuations were lifted.
We found the VRBO to be clean and an easy walking distance to amenities.

Couldn’t have had a better place to catch up with friends for a few days! 3 of us with our own bedrooms AND own bathrooms was heaven. The beds anre so comfortable. Everything we needed was in place for our gathering and adventuring in town. I would definitely look to stay at Palace of the Sleeping Dog again and with 3 friends or 3 couples it is perfect!

Our family ended a 10 day trip here and this was, by far, our favorite resting place! The outside of the building is nothing fancy but the interior was wonderful and the location can’t be beat. We will definitely stay hereand highly recommend it to anyone!
5.0 / 5.0
The location is fantastic, easy walking to so many places. The layout was perfect for providing a comfortable communal space, but allowing privacy for the three of us. It is also very quiet even though it sits close to the street. The hosts responded very quickly to any travel questions we had.
5.0 / 5.0
This place was an absolutely wonderful experience. All that we wanted to do was within walking distance and/or short drive. I will make sure if I need another vacation spot, to call here and make a reservation here first.

Rented all 3 units of palace of the sleeping dog for a wedding in Santa Fe. Tres was by far my favorite of the 3 units. The beds were comfortable and loved the fireplaces in bedrooms. Easy walk to the Plaza and restaurants nearby. Great property for a large group.

It was a wonderful stay in downtown Santa Fe. My girlfriends enjoyed the location and city and we were able to walk to town for coffee and shopping easily. The only issue was the front door lock wouldn’t open once and it was a bit challenging getting in touch but once we were in touch the problem was resolved quickly. Nice place to stay and get to all the sights!

Everything about Palace of the Sleeping Dog is outstanding. Attractive, comfortable, perfectly maintained. Location is ideal - easy walking distance to dining, shopping, museums, etc. Perfect for our family group.

The property was clean and location was great.
The living room furniture was extremely uncomfortable and ‘tired’. No outdoor place to gather so we were forced to use the sitting area inside (uncomfortable). Updated bathrooms

There were 5 of us for a Girls Weekend and this townhome was perfect.
It was just as depicted in the photos... clean and stylish but very comfortable.
The kitchen was well stocked with quality utensils and appliances....it had everything we needed. Bathrooms were nice and bright, beds were plush yet supportive.
The location was excellent -- just a short stroll to the heart of the action.
We did not hear the tenants of the adjacent townhomes except when they walked past on the porch. We weren't bothered by any street noise either.
Responsive, communicative management.
If I'm ever in Santa Fe again, I'd definitely stay at Palace of the Sleeping Dog!

Great location and perfect for our visit.

We were in town for a staff retreat. This townhome was perfect for 3 staff members as each room has their own bathroom. Clean, modern and close to our main retreat house so it worked out well for us! It's on a busy road so you can hear traffic from the front room, but the other two rooms are quiet. For some reason, our instacart shopper had a hard time finding the location (street number was hard for her to see). Overall a great place for our needs!

The property was just as described. The location can’t be beat-you are literally steps away from everything! We had a slight change in plans the day before we arrived and the owner was quick to respond to my request and very accommodating.

The location of this property could not be better! Just a short walk and we were on the plaza in Santa Fe where we visited shops, did some sightseeing, and of course, ate at The Shed. Property was very clean, very spacious and nice that each bedroom had its own bathroom. Plenty of space in living and dining areas for our group, kitchen was well stocked, and everything was very clean. Great place to stay!

This 3 bed, 3 bath property was perfect for our family. Comfortable, clean, and well equipped, it had everything we needed. The location couldn’t be better, with the plaza a few minutes walk away. We had a great vacation in Santa Fe and I would definitely stay here again.

This was the perfect place for our family of four! Fully stocked kitchen, the kids each had their own bathroom & bedroom, and almost everything we wanted to do/see was easily within walking distance. The beds were comfy & we had a designated parking spot. Highly recommend!

Was as presented on the website. No surprises.

The place is very nice and cozy to just hang out after a day of walking. The king size bed was super comfortable. I took my teenage sons and parents so we each had our own room and loved that we each had our own bathroom! It was like staying at a hotel but better…The location was perfect, everything was super close.
It is only a 5 min. walk to the Plaza too. We would walk to shops, restaurants, galleries, museums and churches! Everyday we walked somewhere different, discovered parks, walk paths and really nice neighborhoods. Would definitely stay there again!!! The only con was going to Albertsons, it was super far and out of the way but it was one of recommended supermarkets. I believe there are closer places in the area. I saw a Trader Joe’s and a Natural Grocer’s when we left on the way out.
