    Wow! Another terrific stay at The Chocolate Turtle! Every detail tended to; so relaxing! Can't imagine how it can be better, yet every stay feels just a little bit better! We look forward to our next stay.

    My wife and I were fortunate to stay at the Chocolate Turtle on the first Veteran's Day after my return home from Iraq (I had only returned the week before). To begin with, I would like to thank Dallas and Nancy for extending the generous offer for Veteran's to stay at the Chocolate Turtle for free on Veteran's Day. It was a great opportunity for my wife and I to spend some time alone. The accomodations were beautiful, the service was incredible, and the breakfast was delicious. We look forward to returning for our anniversary.

    Magical adventure.

    This is the place to stay in New Mexico. Dallas and Nancy are such wonderful friendly hosts and have created a lovely oasis in their home and garden. They went above and beyond to make my sister's and my first visit to the Balloon Fiesta absolutely magical. You will have a fantastic time at the Chocolate Turtle.

    Truly fantastic, friendly and knowledgeable hosts, excellent breakfasts, snacks and beverages available 24/7, serene setting, all sorts of furry and feathered friends in the exquisite yard, gorgeous views of the mountains, super comfortable rooms with amazing products in the private baths. Could not have been better!

    Just like home, only better

    My wife and I were guests of Dallas and Nancy at the Chocolate Turtle from August 6-11. From check-in (with a complete and thorough tour of the B&B and all its amenities) to check-out (when we left very early in the morning before anyone was up to find hot coffee to go, OJ, scones and fruit awaiting us) to everything in between, this was absolutely one of the finest experiences we've ever had during our B&B stays across the country. The breakfast each morning was fabulous and so was the company of owners Dallas and Nancy and the other guests. Unlike some B&Bs, the common living room and dining area were conducive to relaxing on site. The outdoor portico for breakfast and evening relaxation was a perfect location for animal and bird watching plus magnificent views of the Sandia Mountains. When we return to Albuquerque, we'll be back at the Chocolate Turtle!
