Beautiful blend of historical and modern Albuquerque.

We could not be more pleased with our stay at the Desert Compass. The grounds of the property are impeccably kept, the outdoor living spaces are functional and comfortable. The deck and pool are mere steps from any of the units and are a fun way to cool off for a while. The Luna suite we stayed in was a perfect for our family, allowing enough room for us to spread out and also offering a great living area with plenty of space to come together. The suite has comfortable beds, a well supplied kitchen, and a smart TV loaded with all the streaming apps you need. Our experience was incredibly enjoyable even earning rave reviews from our teenager who often has the most discerning taste amongst us (just ask her). I have never left an online review but was happy to this time because our stay was so pleasant. Keep up the great work!

Southwest elegance to the fullest.

Not only did the comfort and convenience exceed our expectations, but the hosts were quick to respond and their taste for interior design and attention to detail was inspiring. We will definitely be recommending this property to fellow New Yorkers.

Comfy and cozy!

This is my second time staying in the Luna Suite at the Desert Compass. It's perfect for visitors who want to stay in Old Town and get around by foot, and even more perfect for those who have a car and can travel a bit.

Cute Property! Convenient Location.

Loved how close it was to old town, museums and sawmill area. Very easy to get on freeway and get anywhere In Town also. Great coffee shop called The Castle near by. We also really enjoy the food from Covina Azul.

Magical stay

A colleague and I stayed in the Luna Suite for a work trip to Albuquerque. We loved the decor and the view, and want to come back when the weather's warmer so we can take advantage of the yard and the tub. My only complaint is that the smaller bedroom was very drafty, and I had to bundle myself in two layers of comforters (one borrowed from the other bed) to be able to sleep.

Felt like home

So fun and charming. We felt right at home and very comfortable – like we were visiting friends. A great mix of casual Albuquerque charm and nice little luxuries like wonderful bed linens, great amenities, and a very functional kitchen. Really enjoyed having a family getaway at The Desert Compass; we'll be back.

Amazing Property and Location

Each detail of the Luna suite and the property was so beautiful. The suite felt so luxurious and truly was so perfect for a girls weekend. The pool and yard area were wonderful and provided multiple options for outdoor seating and hangouts. I will definitely stay at The Desert Compass on my next trip to Albuquerque.

Great Stay at the Luna Suite

My family and I had a great stay in the Luna Suite...everything was as described/shown online, very clean and wonderfully unique! Old Town/the Saw Mill were in easy walking distance and it was a quick Uber to anywhere else we needed to go. The property is very relaxing and the hosts were very accommodating and communicative.

Transcendent Space!

My husband and I stayed at the Luna Suite and were so blown away by the quality and aesthetic of the decor. Such attention to detail and beautiful fixtures all around. The beds were absolutely the comfiest beds with the perfectly weighted comforter, soft sheets, and choice of pillow firmness. Did not want to wake up this morning. My husband and I are really looking forward to staying again and only wish we could’ve stayed longer. Definitely recommend The Desert Compass!
