Welcome to Isleta Pueblo
Isleta Pueblo is centrally located in the Río Grande Valley, 13 miles (21 km) south of Albuquerque five minutes away from I-25 via Exit 215. Originally established around the 1300s, the name Isleta comes from the Spanish language and means "Little Island."

Many traditions, songs and dances are still practiced and passed down from generation to generation. Historic St. Augustine Church, built in 1612 and located on the main plaza, presents interesting history and traditional architecture. Isleta Pueblo's diverse terrain ranges from the forested Manzano Mountains on the east across the fertile Río Grande Valley to the desert mesa lands of the Río Puerco on the west.

Isleta now operates several business enterprises, including the Isleta Casino & Resort, Isleta Eagle Golf Course, which is a championship 27-hole golf course with beautiful panoramic views, Isleta Lakes Recreational Complex with year-round fishing, picnicking and RV campsites, Isleta Fun Connection with state of the art bowling alley, laser tag, billiards and arcade.
