About this house rental

Summary:

Welcome to Adobe Retreat, a light-filled historic adobe just four blocks from Taos Plaza. Gather under soaring viga ceilings by the wood-burning fireplace, cook in a tile-trimmed kitchen with a sunny breakfast bar, and step out to a private, adobe-walled courtyard framed by green lawns and old cottonwoods. With local art at every turn and radiant-heated floors underfoot, this single-level home is a peaceful base for art, dining, and mountain adventures.



The Space:

Adobe Retreat is a classic single-level adobe home tucked into a quiet Taos neighborhood, just four blocks from the shops, galleries, and restaurants of the historic Plaza. Soaring wood-beam ceilings, skylights, hand-painted tile, and the work of local artists give the home its warm, unmistakably Taos character.



Inside, an open layout flows from a comfortable living room with a wood-burning fireplace to a tile-trimmed kitchen and a sunny dining nook with banquette seating. Two restful bedrooms and two full bathrooms, each finished with hand-painted Talavera sinks, give couples or a small family room to spread out. Outside, a private adobe-walled courtyard, covered portal, and landscaped lawn invite slow mornings and easy evenings in the high-desert air.



Whether you are here for the galleries and Plaza, a ski trip to Taos Ski Valley, or simply a quiet reset, Adobe Retreat blends historic charm with everyday comfort.

Arrived and it seemed the previous guest were a bit rowdy. The condo smelt like marijuana, very stout. A few items were broken as well. I reported those and

It was a great property and a good location. Overall the condo was perfect, but the pillows were awful which impacted all of our sleep. Also, need to upgrade the paper products for the price we paid to stay there. Very scratchy and thin TP and no Kleenex to be found. We had some guys show up to fix the toilet right when we got there and if I was there alone with girls... I would have been a little concerned. Luckily our friend is a plumber so he fixed the problem and sent the "maintenance" guys on there way.
