About this property

Pacifico, your perfect Taos retreat, with Hot Tub

Pacifico is a New Mexico Safe Certified property

Stay at Pacifico and treat yourself to a true Taos, New Mexico lodging experience – one of adventure and relaxation. Pacifico means peaceful and peace is just what you'll experience when you escape to this enchanted retreat.
Pacifico is a serene authentic two bedroom adobe home located in an unspoiled valley between the town of Taos and the Taos Ski Valley. The home features wood lattila and viga ceilings, radiant heat saltillo tile floors and a classic kiva fireplace. Set on a full acre, with panoramic views of the southern Rocky Mountains, the grounds feature stone patios, rock gardens and private hot tub for those cool Taos evenings. The home is tastefully decorated with works from various northern New Mexico pueblos and artists.
At the center of the home, the living room provides plenty of space for gathering under the high viga ceiling, and plenty of windows to take in the stunning view. Sink into one of the oversized chairs for an evening of fireside board games, or pull the shades and take advantage of the 55” flat screen TV connected to satellite service.
Open to the living room, prepare a delicious meal using the fully stocked kitchen. The kitchen is fully equipped with all new appliances: microwave, gas range, refrigerator and ultra-quiet dishwasher, as well as an array of small appliances, utensils and pantry staples. Pacifico contains plenty of dinnerware for a group to share a meal at the generously sized dining room table, whether it be home cooked or conveniently brought in from one of the many local restaurants. For alfresco cooking in the back patio fire up the gas grill. Later, when the sun gets low in the sky, grab a blanket and cozy up in one of the outdoor chairs to admire the evening lights.
Staying in for the day? Choose from a variety of books located on the floor to ceiling bookshelves in the library and put your feet up while enjoying a fire in the traditional wood-burning kiva fireplace; savor a glass of wine while sitting on the private front patio or listen to birds and soft chimes blowing in the breeze while taking in the magic of Taos Mountain from the professionally landscaped back patio.
When it's time to head out to see the sights, you'll find this quiet, naturally-landscaped neighborhood is a convenient jumping off point for excursions to the Rio Grande Gorge, Enchanted Circle and Taos Ski Valley, but yet, is still only five miles from Taos Plaza.
On return from your outing, no matter what the season, soothe tired muscles in the hot tub beneath a moonlit sky so clear you can see the Milky Way. Finally, sleep like a baby on beds appointed with foam or pillow-top mattresses within thick adobe sound muffling walls. This lovely home sleeps 6, with a king bed in the master bedroom, a queen bed in the 2nd bedroom and a new daybed with trundle in the library. Ceiling fans are located above each bed to keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Stream your favorite playlist over the Bluetooth enabled alarm clocks located in both bedrooms. For your convenience, wireless Internet and USB charging stations are provided.
Enjoy a spa experience in the jetted jacuzzi tubs located in each of the two well appointment bathrooms. Each bathroom, one attached to the master bedroom and one conveniently located adjacent to the guest bedroom, is furnished with a hairdryer, hand-carved cabinets, ceramic-tiled sinks, handmade tin mirrors, and plush bathroom towels.
Taos is a four-season paradise and Pacifico is an idyllic retreat, perfectly located just far enough from the crowds but offering easy access to all the area can offer: 5 miles to the Taos Plaza and the historic Taos Pueblo and 15 miles open highway to the Taos Ski Valley. One visit and you will want to return again and again.
Taos appeals to guests physically, intellectually, and spiritually. Enjoy the mountain air, the mild summers, the internationally famous Taos Ski Valley, Taos Pueblo, artists communities and museums, festivals and fiestas, and white water rafting, just to name a few!

Everything was more than we expected. The owners respect their property and that makes it easy to join them in doing so. The night sky and hot tub combo were so appreciated by us. A treasure all on its own.

This is our second stay at Pacifico - we hope it won’t be the last. Perfect spot for the two of us - and very pet friendly. The location (and the view) are perfect. We had one small issue upon arrival- but George responded immediately and appropriately. This is our favorite spot in Taos area.

Wow, Better Than Advertised

This place is awesome. Maybe the cleanest VRBO that I've rented yet. The location is great, the views incredible and the hot tub just what the doctor ordered after climbing Wheeler Peak, which you can stare at from the hot tub BTW :-)

Awesome House and Location

We loved our stay at Pacifico. The house was just far enough out of town to be nice and quiet, but close enough to easily drive to the various dining options. It was also a great access point for heading up to Red River or out to the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge. You truly feel isolated on the 1 acre of land, and the hot tub has a great view of the mountain range to the east. The night we got there, the sun set on one side of the house, and then the full moon came up over the mountains. What a great sight. The night sky was spectacular as long as you bundled up for the cold. As for the inside, the house had everything we needed with plenty of space to spread out. The two oversized chairs were favorites of the entire family. The heated floors were also a nice addition and quite easy to control with various thermostats spread around the house. Everything about this place was a positive. Should we ever find ourselves in the Taos area again, we hope to be able to once again stay at Pacifico.

This was our second stay at this property. Love the location with the Mountain views. The house is beautifully decorated and comfortable. We had an 18 month old with us and enjoying having a pac-n-play, booster seat and plastic dishes. We cooked a few meals and had everything we needed including spices. Wonderful stay!

Best location for relaxing stay

My family with kids 11,15, 24 had the best stay. A central location to town and several great restaurants. We ventured to Taos Ski, red river for NY Eve and down to Bandolier National area. The home was the most well appointed we have stayed in. Extra touches in every room that meant so much, beds that we melted into, oh and the warm floors!! My favorite was sitting in the hot tub with my older kids, staring at the Milky Way and connecting long over due. Thank you!!

Incredible home, great location

This place was phenomenal. The home was well stocked with everything we needed, and the hot tub was a great way to start the day and end it. The place was more spacious than we imagined. The only issue was that we reached out to the property manager to treat the hot tub or let us know where the chlorine was, to no avail, so we were not able to use the tub on our last days. The location was perfect, near black rock hot springs, gorge bridge, Taos, earthship, Taos Pueblo, and the list goes on. We were also happy just hanging at the home with the amazing places to meditate, draw, read, contemplate, right on the property.
