About this house rental
Arroyo Seco - Los Altos - Half way between Taos, NM village and Taos Ski Valley - 8 miles either direction
Casa Bella Compound is ideal for groups wanting serene privacy with easy access to both primary centers in the Taos area: The "Village of Taos, New Mexico is "8 miles south 12 minutes and the "Village of Taos Ski Valley" 8 miles north 15 minutes and is a most highly sought after location due to its being exactly half way between both primary centers. Skiers, hikers can head north and shoppers, sight seekers, adventure seekers and historians can head south.
The guest house (studio) ideal for the folks who desire separate space from the larger group, comes equipped with full kitchen facilities, laundry facilities, satellite flat screen TV, Wi-Fi, deck and hot tub, stream and garage, gas log cast iron fireplace, radiant floor heat and portable air conditioning.
Located in Los Altos, the only community of its kind in all of Taos County. 35 single family homes all with access to the Los Altos Club House, indoor pool and outdoor tennis court.
In the early beginning, the Compound was "home" to the architect (Sally) and her husband (Rick) the contractor / builder of the Los Altos community.
At that time, what is now the casita was a 300 square studio where Sally designed all of the Los Altos homes. In 1999 the new buyer added a double sink bathroom with tub shower combo, a foyer / laundry facility, walk in closet and exterior furnace room, increasing the size by 250 feet. The garage was "Rick's" builder supply room. His office was located where the now existing 4th bedroom and newly added bathroom are. This 2nd master bedroom faces south with direct access to the back yard deck, hot tub and stream. This bedroom is still called "Rick's" office by the owner, caretaker and maintenance people who still care for and maintain the property.

Overall, the location of this property cant be beat for people looking to explore the mountain and the town. Gary and Isabel were amazing throughout the trip. There were some unexpected issues with the house that popped up during our stay and they were prompt to get them resolved and were very communicative throughout the whole process. The house is advertised to sleep 14 but with 11 adults we were very tight. Would definitely recommend the house as long as you are okay with it being a little outdated. Outside of that, Premier Properties as a whole is a 10 out of 10 so if its not this house, I would highly recommend finding one that they manage.

A gorgeous property. The house is so unique, comfortable and beautiful, it is really a treat to stay there. We loved the views! The yard is so lovely and peaceful with the stream gurgling through the trees. The hot tub was delightful. The kitchen and dinning area were wonderful for meals. We had a wonderful time and would love to return.

Reviewer Comments:
Casa Bella overall is a nice home in a beautiful area in Northern New Mexico. Our family overall had a great time visiting Taos Farmers Market, Taos Pueblo & Taos Ski Mountain. Casa Bella seems to be a little neglected in overall cleanliness & upkeep. Cleanliness issue noted upon arrival was the condition (not cleaned for our visit), accuracy (pool code) & out-of-date (Old pamphlets) "blue Book". That side table, the dining table & kitchen counters & dishes had food debris/dirt(?). Not enough silver wear. Dead and alive bugs were found in 2 of the carpeted bedrooms. Front door alignment, water leaking in bedroom might be cause. LR couches are old & stained. There were downed & partially downed trees in back yard area. The main house hot tub is older, no net to clean top debris. On the bright side, the air conditioner cools the house very well, the beds were clean comfortable & there were plenty of blankets, towels & pillows. High chair was a plus!! For 2-3 nights, it generally worked!
