  • This condo was magnificent by all standards. It was decorated well, was extremely comfortable and had all the added touches of a real home. We cooked when we were there and the kitchen had the best cookware and was fully equipped. There was even butter in the refrigerator. Our stay was for 3 days but would have been longer if we could have the condo for more days (people coming in). It had incredible Mountain views and one of the best features is that it is just a stones throw from Taos. We loved our stay there. Our hostess Ellen Hoffman made everything perfect- right down to the jacuzzi tub and wonderful lotions and potions she had available. We want to stay and entire summer next time. Serenity was perfect and soothed our souls!!! Jamie and Mike Claypool, Austin Texas

  • This is a gorgeous condo that doesn't feel as if it's a condo because it's an end unit and it's layout makes it feel big. It is also the best stocked place I've ever rented. Often you end up running out of TP or wishing you had some more clean towels. Not here. There were loads of extra sheets,towels,blankets,and TP. There was also a cupboard full of spices, cooking oil, and all those other ingredients you usually just do without. Most of all, Ellen Hoffman, the owner, made us feel completely welcome. Fresh flowers and a bottle of wine greeted us upon arrival! This is a special place.

  • Our family stayed at Serenity over Christmas Break. We were in a perfect location, a short distance to town and a short drive to the ski lifts. The condo is an end unit so there is a lot of privacy. Everything we needed was provided. It got to be a game for us – when someone needed an item we looked and ALWAYS found it. We found ourselves saying “I bet Ellen thought of that!” and sure enough she had! Such great attention to details made this a special place to relax and enjoy our time together. There was even Christmas music playing for us when we unlocked the door and entered! Thanks, Ellen – we hope to meet you someday!

  • we had a wonderful time and loved your place. it was so cozy and comfortably decorated with nice touches (eg. slippers)! did not ski, but visited two different natural hot springs; manby and black rock. great sceneries and settings, minimal usage by others. enjoyed visiting the pueblo and met a very informative local/native. indeed, you have a well equipped kitchen which was great, esp for the thanksgiving dinner preparations! would enjoy visiting taos in the spring and come back to "serenity".

  • I recently traveled to Taos for the Taos Wool Festival and stayed in this condo with the Shells (previous comment). This is a lovely, warm and inviting place to stay with all the amenities and an easy drive to Taos Ski resort. I definitely recommend it and plan to stay there again.

  • So much has been added to this wonderful condo to make it an exceptional place to stay while in the area. The location is great - on the road to the ski area and just a few miles to Taos. All amenities are there along with everything you could need. I loved it.

  • Serenity house was just as it's name describes, a wonderful retreat. As a hand-weaver, the furnishings, bedding, curtains were a lush, lovely, tactile treat! There were inviting warm colors every where. Every thing we could have wanted, and more, were provided for. Such amazing attention to detail. This house was a major player in our over all fantastic Taos vacation. I would stay there again and hope to make it a family tradition to do so! Thanks Ellen!

  • This is a beautiful place. Everything that is said is true. The owner goes out of her way to make sure you are comfortable and adds a lot of special touches, just for you. We have been renting through vrbo for about 5 years now and this was by far the BEST place we have stayed.
