Casa Aliento

This in an excellent well furnished property with so many ammenities. Blooming fruit trees and nesting Lewis's woodpeckers made it awesome as did radient floor heat in the living room, quiet easy to access neighborhood, and a warm ambiance. Our late April family visit was made excellent by having this house as a home base.

Great place after a long drive

We stayed here for just one night after a long day on the road, and it was exactly what we needed. The house was clean, comfortable, and easy to check into. The beds were cozy, and we really appreciated the quiet area—perfect for getting a good night’s sleep. The host was responsive and helpful, and everything was just as described in the listing.If you’re looking for a convenient and relaxing stopover, this place is a great choice. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Great place to stay!

Our trip to Taos was wonderful and the house was a great place to stay for our family. The house was exactly as we expected it to be and the kitchen was very well stocked for cooking. It was a nice quiet area to be when we weren't adventuring. The owners made us feel at home as they made sure everything was good for the trip. I would definitely stay here again.

We'll be back!

We spent three days in Taos visiting various wedding venues with our daughter and a few other family members. The house was well located, everything was simple from check-in to check-out. The house was extremely clean. The house has a really nice layout for hanging out and the bedrooms were nice and quiet.

Taos Hideaway

Tucked away in a quiet area of town, this was an uncluttered but fully equipped home. The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals; plenty of towels, cleaning supplies, and paper products; radiant floor heat; comfortable beds. The location is near good restaurants and a grocery store. The hosts were responsive in minutes to every question or request! Highly recommended.

Lovely spacious home in Taos

This house was perfect for a getaway to Taos with some friends. The check-in and checkout process was seamless. The home is beautiful, clean, and spacious. Paul and Mary were easy to communicate with and responded quickly to messages. It is in a great location to see stars at night but also close to town to explore shops, restaurants, etc. I would definitely stay here again.

Great Location

This location was extremely close to everything. Super quiet at night. The house was immaculately clean, and was stocked with everything that you would need to cook a meal. Traveling with an older friend, it was nice to see that she didn’t have any stairs and Everything was on the same level Portable air conditioners in each room were welcomed because if got a bit hot there in July. The ACs worked beautifully and made our day and evenings very comfortable The house is very clean and the host checked in with us several times to see if we needed anything. I highly recommend this property.

Great place right in Taos!

This was a great place for our gaggle of friends :) The rooms were super comfortable, the place was really spacious, and it was well located near enough to downtown Taos but only 30 mins from Taos Ski Valley. Honestly we couldn't have asked for anything more perfect! Paul and Mary were super communicative, and even held onto something that I forgot and made themselves available so I could come back and get it. Definitely recommend them!

Great hiking base in northern NM

The house met our needs perfectly though it could use a little TLC. There are two broken windows that have been that way for months (I stayed there in October 2023 also) and the front screen door needs replacing. the outside furniture is old and one seat ripped when I sat on it. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed

Very nice! Great Hosts!

This is a comfortable home in a quiet location very close to town (.5 mi). It was beautifully decorated in a southwestern theme. The master was particularly nice with a fireplace in it. The kitchen was FULLY equipped. It was wonderful! We also liked sitting out on the porch & enjoying the outdoors. The hosts were fabulous! We inadvertently locked ourselves out the first day. The hosts responded quickly even though they were on vacation themselves & provided a backup way to get in. Then one of us left clothing in the closet when we left. They immediately let us know about it & mailed it back to us. The were always cheerful & accomodating. Thank you so much for your help!

Well appointed house, secluded yet convenient

Casa Aliento was a welcome surprise for our visit to the Taos arts community. La Casa was immaculate with spacious bedrooms, a good kitchen, and a welcoming group area. Adobe fireplaces were focal points for the living and master area. From the map, we expected the home to be too far from our appointments. However, we were happily surprised to find we could walk to one of the best restaurants, the Love Apple, in less than 5 minutes. Downtown was only 15-20 minutes with ample time to shop the galleries along the way. Our host was very responsive to any of our questions, yet we needed very little support. Check in was transparent as was check out. Overall, an excellent stay.
