About this property

Luxury Southwest Estate•5 Mins to Plaza•Hot Tub•Fireplaces•Playground

Secluded mountain sanctuary just 5 min from the Plaza. Sleeps 10+, 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, 3 living rooms, & tons of over the top space. Stunning views, total privacy & premium amenities: hot tub, fire pits, multiple grills, pool table, darts, hook & ring, and a kids’ playground. Fully stocked with high-end everything, just bring your suitcase. Come unwind, entertain & experience Santa Fe at its finest.

Welcome to Santa Fe’s Most Extraordinary Retreat

This is not just a place to stay, it’s an experience unlike anything Santa Fe has ever seen. Designed for comfort, connection, and pure indulgence, this stunning 5-bedroom luxury retreat sleeps 10+ comfortably across 11 beds, making it the perfect escape for families, friend groups, corporate retreats, or couples traveling together who refuse to compromise on space or style.

From the moment you arrive, you’ll understand this is something different. Three expansive living rooms give everyone room to breathe, gather, or find their own quiet corner. The layout is generous, thoughtful, and flows effortlessly between cozy intimacy and grand entertaining.

Sleeping Arrangements

• 2 King beds
• 3 Queen beds
• 4 Twin XL beds (2 of which convert to a King)
• 1 Queen sleeper sofa
• 1 Full sleeper sofa

Every bed is dressed in luxurious Egyptian cotton linens, because a great stay begins with a great night’s sleep.

The Outdoor Experience

Step outside and into something magical. A private hot tub sits beneath an open Santa Fe sky with panoramic mountain views that will stop you in your tracks. Multiple fire pits and fireplaces, inside and out, set the mood for long, memorable evenings. Catch a game or a movie on the outdoor TV while the fire crackles beside you. Whether you’re grilling on one of the multiple outdoor grills, gathered around the flames, or simply soaking in the silence of the mountains, the outdoor spaces here are truly second to none.

Games & Entertainment

This property was built for togetherness. Challenge each other to pool table tournaments, darts, cornhole, or the wildly addictive hook & ring game. Rain or shine, there’s never a dull moment.

The Details That Set Us Apart

This is where luxury lives in the little things. Two fully appointed bar areas make entertaining effortless. Coffee lovers will feel right at home with a fully stocked coffee bar featuring three Keurigs, one Nespresso, and a drip machine, because mornings here deserve to be savored. Four mini fridges and three microwaves mean a household of ten plus never has to wait. Every inch of this home has been stocked, styled, and maintained to an exacting standard. Just bring your suitcase, we’ve thought of everything else.

Authentic Santa Fe, Elevated

Warm Southwestern charm meets over-the-top luxury in a setting that feels both deeply rooted in Santa Fe’s soul and unlike anything you’ve experienced before. Surrounded by nature, enveloped in privacy, and just 5 minutes from the historic Plaza, world-class dining, galleries, and shopping — this retreat offers the rare gift of true seclusion without sacrificing a thing.

Tons of parking. Fast Wi-Fi. A children’s playground. Fireplaces that crackle. Views that take your breath away. Complete privacy.

Book your stay and discover why guests call it the most unforgettable property in New Mexico.

Nice big house with a well stocked kitchen. We rented for 3 families with a total of 11 people. We had enough room and privacy for everyone. And the kitchen helped us cook and serve multiple meals. We also made great use of the hot tub, firepit and pool table. Overall and amazing stay in beautiful Santa Fe.

Our group of 12 had a wonderful time at Casa Encantado. The house and grounds were a perfect setting for a large group of friends. The host was available to help with entry with a tricky lock and the caretaker was available to meet all our requests. I highly recommend this property for any large group.

Spacious Home

We enjoyed the layout of the house which had room for our family of 12. The dining room and living area were a great place for us to gather around the fireplace to visit and play games. We were here for a ski holiday and enjoyed the closeness to the slopes and the town with the feeling of being out of town.

Cousin Reunion

9 female cousins enjoyed our reunion at this beautiful home and outdoor space in Santa Fe. There was plenty of room to spread out, share, enjoy. We did lots of sightseeing but had most of our meals in the home since it was so comfy, well appointed and made socializing very easy. All 9 of us agreed it was a perfect setting for getting together.

50th Anniversary

What an awesome house! We booked this for my parent’s anniversary and it was perfect. They were able to stay in the private apartment while the rest of the family stayed in the big house. The media room was a hit with the kids as they were able to watch first run movies on the big screen TV. We had breakfast on the back patio as a family and were able to observe deer and even had an encounter with a bear. Great place to vacation!

We loved this house. It is beautiful and clean and has a great yard for evening cooking and talking around the fire. Our kids enjoyed the hot tub which was in good working condition. The house is spacious and decorated with cultural art. The beds and bedrooms were comfortable. The bathrooms were all very nice. The kitchen is user friendly and well-stocked. We loved having the adjoining apartment. Great place!

Annual Family Vacation

This was a great house for our group of eight adults (two families with college-age kids). The location is ideal--secluded but less than 10 minutes from the downtown area of Santa Fe, tons of hiking nearby and reasonable drive for day trips to Taos, Bandelier, and Los Alamos. As an FYI, note the house has lots of fans but no air conditioning. At 7,000+ feet of elevation that would not normally be a problem but the week we were there afternoon highs were in the low 90's. Nights better but it did take some time for the house to cool down. Overall though a great home base for our group. If you haven't been, go to NM. It truly is beautiful.

Santa Fe had one of the warmest summers on record. We have never had more requests for air conditioning than this year. We will be adding portable air conditioners for each room in the house for next summer. We apologize for any inconvenience and want you to know this will be reconciled. Thank you again for chosing Casa Encantado.

Host did not send check in instructions/access code for rental until the day AFTER check in. Customer service called host multiple times on two numbers and no response. Thankfully VRBOs guarantee came through and remedied the situation. On another note the home was large and accommodating except for the no AC and limited fans provided in August heat. This is written in the description but think before booking during summer months. Host accused us damaging hot tub and withheld their promised refund for not providing check in info. Again thank you to VRBO for the refund and making it right when the host would not.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the communication challenges and the lack of air conditioning during your stay. We understand how important comfort and responsiveness are when traveling, and we regret that we fell short at that time. Since your visit, the property has undergone a complete luxury remodel with significant upgrades throughout the home, including the installation of a brand-new air conditioning system. Every detail has been improved to provide guests with a much more elevated, comfortable, and seamless experience. We also made major improvements to our guest communication and support processes to ensure future stays receive the level of service we strive to provide.

Big House, No A/C, No Problem (for us)

I recently travelled to this house with a group of 8 men for a golf trip. We thoroughly enjoyed Santa Fe, the golf courses and the weather. The house was great...no complaints. We had plenty of room for everyone although 4 of the men had to sleep in twin beds while the other 4 had huge suites. No of them complained but I will say the bedrooms are set up more for families and less for individual people. We came there knowing this and the pictures are accurate. So, again, the place was exactly what we expected. Do NOT stay here if the temperature is over 90 degrees during the day. The house doesn't have air conditioning. When the sun goes down, you will need to open up all the doors and windows and run every fan you can find in order to cool the house. Luckily, we had great weather while we were there so cooling the house after sunset wasn't a problem. Again, the property is great and the owner communicated very well.

July 2023 review

We were somewhat concerned about our stay, because the property doesn't have air-conditioning and the temperature was in the low-90s during the days. However, with the fans turned on and the windows and doors opened, the entire house was pleasantly comfortable, and we all slept fine. The house is very spacious, and so more than accommodated 9 of us. We loved the large table on the shaded patio outside, where we ate all of our meals. The house had everything we needed; was clean; and everything worked (not the kitchen dishwasher, as we knew beforehand, but there is another one in the bar area, which we did not use: we simply washed dishes by hand.) The kitchen is very large; all the rooms are large. The house is only 5 minutes drive to the downtown area; it was very quiet. We had no complaints; it was an enjoyable stay!

About the host

Hosted by James Bort Jones

Host profile image
We have been managing Casa Encantado since 2005. We pride ourselves in making sure the property is well kept and always ready for our guests.

Why they chose this property

Just a five-minute drive from the historic Plaza, yet it feels like a world entirely apart — this is what drew us to the neighborhood. Cradled at the foot of the Sangre de Cristo mountains, the house offers a rare sense of quiet escape, wrapped in golden light and mountain air. Santa Fe's weather is nothing short of extraordinary, and from the moment you step outside, you feel enveloped by the foothills, with hiking trails winding just beyond the door. When the mood turns toward town, the Plaza awaits with its adobe charm, art galleries, and candlelit dinners, all just minutes away. It's a setting made for slow mornings and unhurried evenings — a place so rich with beauty and history that you could return year after year and still feel as though you're discovering it for the first time.

What makes this property unique

What sets this property apart is scale paired with soul. Sleeping 16 across five bedrooms and eleven beds dressed in Egyptian cotton linens, it's built for families, friend groups, and couples alike who don't want to compromise on space — with three separate living rooms giving everyone a place to gather or retreat. Step outside and the magic multiplies: a private hot tub beneath open Santa Fe sky, multiple fire pits and fireplaces, an outdoor TV, and mountain views that stop you mid-conversation. There's a pool table, darts, hook & ring, cornhole, and a kids' playground, so there's genuinely never a dull moment. The details are where it truly shines — two full bar areas, a coffee bar stocked with three Keurigs, a Nespresso, and a drip machine, four mini fridges, three microwaves — everything styled and stocked to a standard that means you simply bring your suitcase. All of it sits just five minutes from the historic Plaza, so you get total seclusion in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristos without ever sacrificing access to world-class dining, galleries, and shopping. It's Santa Fe's warmth and history, elevated into something guests consistently call the most unforgettable stay in New Mexico.
