Skydancer - Desert Dream - 3 Bed - 1 Great Room - 2 Bath

Headline:
`Adobe Oasis: Stylish Retreat, Prime Location`

Description Summary:
Unearth the magic of New Mexico from this stylish adobe retreat nestled in Ranchos de Taos, just steps from the Taos Country Club and a short drive to Taos Plaza. It`s perfect for a group seeking luxury and comfort with easy access to cultural landmarks. Offering 3 bedrooms, a game room, and a fully-equipped kitchen, this exquisite home balances tranquility with easy access to adventure.

The Space:
Step into a picture-perfect representation of New Mexico`s holiday homes: Skydancer - Desert Dream. This charming Adobe-style house can comfortably sleep up to eight guests. The three beautifully-appointed bedrooms reflect southwestern charm: each room is a haven of restful ease. The master suite comes complete with a king bed, a spacious walk-in closet, and a grand master bath, further equipped with a jacuzzi tub for an indulgent soak. The remaining two rooms feature snug queen-sized beds and a shared bathroom.

Our home offers something for everyone. For the culinarians, our fully-equipped kitchen with a 5-burner stove is a charming space to whip up gourmet meals, over laughter and engaging conversations. Not forgetting, the twin day bed for extra companions, or little ones needing their private space.

But it`s not just indoors where our property makes a striking impression. You`ll be spellbound by the serenity and scenic views offered by our location. Sunsets here seem straight from a postcard, and the solitude of the high desert amplifies the calming aura of our home.

Thrill-seekers can look forward to a gaming escapade in our spacious game room. Dual-purpose, it doubles up as your personal fitness area, equipped with a TV and yoga mats, or you could indulge in a friendly foosball match or movie night by the fire.

But comfort doesn`t equate to disregard for safety. We prioritize your security with top-notch safety features like smoke alarms, fire extinguishers, and carbon monoxide alarms. Additionally, our dedicated workspace with Wi-Fi makes the stay perfect for those work-from-home days too.

4. The guest access:
Guests will have unrestricted access to the entire property, including the backyard. Parking will be a breeze, with our two-car garage, plus driveway space for three more vehicles. Self-check-in option through our smart lock ensures a seamless arrival, regardless of your check-in time.

Other Things to Note:
Our location provides a quick access to the iconic Rio Grande Gorge Bridge, the historic San Francisco de Asís Catholic Mission Church, exquisite shops of Taos Drums, and gourmand delights at Ranchos Plaza Grill.

Spring season truly brings out the beauty of New Mexico, with the desert canvas blooming with vibrant colors. This home serves as a perfect base for your memorable Memorial Day and Independence Day celebrations. So, make sure to book in time and start a new tradition at our home away from home.

For the connoisseurs, a tasting tour of local bars is unmissable from the Adobe Bar- `The Living Room of Taos` to Taos Mesa Brewing; there`s a bar for every mood in Taos.

We really enjoyed our stay! The only thing that took us by surprise was that there was no Air Conditioner, so when we arrived on Friday it was quite hot in the house, we opened windows and doors but it never cooled down until Saturday morning.Aside from that, we truly enjoyed it!

Sweet getaway in Northern NM

The house is pretty spectacular- large spaces to gather in, a nice, well- furnished kitchen to cook all our meals in, and picturesque views from all angles of the home. The true star of the show is that gigantic window looking out toward the mountains. I believe that Taos and the surrounding villages are the most magical spots on earth, and Skydancer is an exceptional place to witness that.

Great House in Taos

Great house for our spring break ski trip. Unbelievable views of Taos mountain in a great new neighborhood. Our only issues with the house were low water pressure (couldn’t use multiple sources of water at once) and the room with the bunks was really large but sparsely furnished — our kids couldn’t really hang out there because there was no where to sit down. Property manager was great and it was a clean, beautiful property.

Hello Philip, It was wonderful to host you and your family! We did immediately offer to come out and try to help address the water pressure issue but we were told that you all would be fine and did not want/need us to come by. We have looked into the issue since you have left and have been monitoring it closely with the current guests but have found no other issues with pressure. Unfortunately this could be something due to the County Utility Systems, which is out of our control. Surely a bummer that our extremely attentive and hard working team suffers a less star due to something that is out of our control. We will speak with the owners and look into adding something in addition in the trundle room besides the two chairs and the two bench seats, the new tv, coffee table, and awesome foosball table. We apologize that that was enough not enough seating for your children. We are also happy that we were able to make an exception and allow a emotional support animal at a non-pet friendly home for one of your family members. We would mention that fully utilizing the pooper scooper and poop bucket next time would be exceedingly helpful for our cleaning staff. Have a wonderful spring! 😊

Fantastic house

The house is even better in person than the listing appears! The only reason I gave 4 stars for location is because it’s a bit of a drive to anything we needed. The hostess gifts were fantastic & the house was well equipped. Lots of space for our party of 7, & the “game room” was perfect for our youngest son & his friend. The only issue we had was the water pressure is very low. One day the water stopped completely, but once we cleaned the home water filter out, it improved. We did have to coordinate showers/laundry/dishwasher usage because you can’t use more than one of those at a time. This wouldn’t keep us from renting the home again, but it is worth noting. The hosts were wonderful & communication was easy & prompt. They even brought a “thank you” gift by the house for us after we emptied the filter. Great home, great hosts!
