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.

About the host

Hosted by Michael & Amy Tucker

We live in Driftwood, TX, just outside of Austin. We love sharing experiences with family and friends. We're both in tech, but manage to find time to travel, cook, enjoy a glass of wine, and good music.

Why they chose this property

Our family has vacationed for years in Taos, and we finally found the perfect property for us, and families like us. Casa de la Mañana, and its proximity to so much in the region allows us to bring extended family, neighbors and friends to Taos, spread out, cook and play together, and enjoy all northern New Mexico has to offer.

What makes this property unique

Walking into house, you'll immediately feel comfortable. Look out any window. you'll have a gorgeous view. Outside our doors you can play in the great out doors year-round, shop, enjoy fine dining. Inside the home, we have updated modern bathrooms, a chef's kitchen, plenty of dining space, two relaxing living areas, and plenty of space to spread out. Casa de la Mañana really does offer it all.
