Adobe Mountain Villa, overlooking Taos!

4400 sq. feet of northern New Mexico history and charm on 3 private acres. Our second family home is a secluded and modernized adobe villa with three gorgeous kiva fireplaces, vigas ceilings, beautiful tile work, chef's kitchen, and modern baths. Situated above the Taos Valley in the trees, Casa de la Mañana overlooks Taos, the Rio Grande Gorge, and the Sangre de Cristos mountains. Despite the seclusion, we are 10 minutes from Taos' services, restaurants, and historic square. 45 minutes from 3 different ski areas, 10 minutes from the Taos Country Club golf course, and minutes away from state and federal land for hiking, biking, river rafting, fly fishing, and outdoor pursuits.

Spacious, comfortable home above Taos

We spent 3 days with 3 generations of family and friends celebrating a 90th birthday in the family. The home is convenient for visits to Taos and surrounding area. We had plenty of room for 9 adults. The home is quiet with beautiful views from the house and large deck. We took full advantage of the gas grill and gourmet kitchen to prepare meals.

Weekend in Taos

The house was beautiful, clean and comfortable. We chose it for its size and location. We had a group of 9 adults. The back deck was great for an evening bbq. The door lock didn't work when we arrived, but the owner was easily able to reset it for us.

Adobe Mountain Villa, minutes from Taos!

Had a Great Stay. Loved the home. The opportunity to spend a few days with the three families all together, all in under one roof, was magic for Jackie and me. Big disappointment about the weather on Thursday night. Couldn't see the Eclipse. The Property and the city lost power in the snow storm. And we had a rough trip home (Icy roads & Wind).I Left a leather hat somewhere there (a gift from someone). Don't suppose there is a way to get that back?Anyway, We loved the stay and thanks for making it available.Not a big fan of Vrbo management or communications. Emails contain no Information, only only links to the website messages in database. No info to download or save. They claimed parts of my original registration information was lost in a website upgrade.

Spring weekend getaway

My family and friends have been visiting Taos for the past 4 years and Michael and Amy made our most recent stay incredible! Their house is so lovely and very accommodating for a big family. And their property is stunning. Just a 45 min drive to the mountain and 15 minutes into town! The house had everything we needed and we were very comfortable! We will definitely stay here again!

Quintessential Taos Stay

During balloon fiesta, I brought my out of town family (all over 50) to stay at this gorgeous property. There was a group of 10 and with 2 of the bedrooms being downstairs, it ended up being perfect for the 2 oldest couples with a bit of separation for the "kids" up stairs. The family was super impressed with the views, the location and the overall spacious property itself. The check in process was extremely easy and the hosts communication was quick and effective. We were only able to stay one night and all of the out-of-towners want to come back out to stay there again! I plan to come back with my partner and friends soon to enjoy extra time there.

Family Gathering for 4th of July Celebration

Beautiful home. I was concerned about the lack of air-conditioning, but Michael convinced me that it would work out. Lucky for him, it did. Even though it was 4th of July weekend, we had no issues with the heat. Drinking adult beverages while sitting on the porch with the family watching the fireworks, was memorable event. Thanks Michael!

Perfection

Casa de la Mañana is more than just a place to stay; it’s an unforgettable experience. Whether you're eager to explore the rich cultural heritage of Taos, seeking thrilling outdoor adventures, or simply looking to unwind in a stunning, serene setting, this property has it all. The perfect blend of historical charm, modern amenities, and breathtaking surroundings makes Casa de la Mañana an exceptional choice for your next vacation. It feels like a home away from home, offering both comfort and the excitement of a perfect getaway. I can't recommend it highly enough for families, couples, or anyone wanting to immerse themselves in the enchanting beauty of northern New Mexico. We are thrilled to return for ski season!

Amazing respite in the desert

Absolutely loved staying here. The property is gorgeous. Set up on a hill with amazing views of the mountains. About 20 minutes from town and 45 minutes from Taos ski valley, we enjoyed lovely sunsets and got some great turns in. The house is beautiful with charming rooms, fireplaces, and old Taos spirit. It had tons of room for friends and family and we would happily return here again on our next trip to town.

First Ski trip

This house was great for our trip. Great views, need to come back when we can enjoy the deck! The kitchen was the best out of any of the rentals we have used in several states over the years. There was plenty of room for our group of 12 ( 5 couples and an adult child and 9yo.) it’s just a short drive south from Taos but secluded, quiet and has great views. Highly recommend this rental.

Absolutely Delightful!

Our family of five hosted our Poland international business partner's family also of five for a long weekend in Taos. The Casa de Manana was ideal! The location is close to town to far enough out for an amazing view of the city, no noise pollution nor light pollution. The view, peaceful sounds, and night sky were amazing! The pictures do not do the views of the gorge, city or mountains justice. The house set up perfectly for one family on the bottom floor and the other on the top. The home was impeccably clean. The whole property celebrated the finest of northern New Mexico! Instruction manuel notebook on property operations was very clear. Our Polish guests only disappointment was that we didn't have more time there.

Great stay outside of Taos

We stayed for five nights and had a very nice time. We came to Taos to ski and explore the area, and found this house a great home base. Although 15-20 min outside of town, the views from the house are great and make the commute in feel worth it. We skied as well, and the ~45 min drive to Taos Ski Valley was not bad at all. Final note on location - house is up a long dirt road and was covered in a few inches of snow when we arrived. We had AWD cars with good tires, so didn’t have an issue, but would take the advice to have AWD seriously if visiting in winter. The house itself was great! Very comfortable and well appointed - and large! Our group of 8 had more than enough space to spread out, and the multiple living and dining spaces made it especially easy. Main suggestion for improvement from our group was a hot tub to make taking in the view and relaxing after skiing even more enjoyable :) Communication with our hosts was easy and they were extremely responsive to concerns and questions. Definitely would stay again and recommend to others. Thanks Michael and Amy for a great stay!
