LONG TERM RENTAL ONLY: Luna Rosa at Casa Encantada Taos. Private Hot Tub.


LONG TERM RENTAL ONLY: 30 days or longer. Write with dates and we will get you confirmed pricing.

Nestled in a quiet corner of Taos, a 10 minute stroll from galleries, dining, shopping, live music and the historic plaza, Casa Encantada #3’s location along a beautiful tree lined street is considered one of the most desirable. Situated on what was original Pueblo land, this early 1900’s family compound has been transformed into a charming, intimate collection of individually owned casitas. It is the perfect escape for friends, couples and small families.
Casa Encantada is a classic adobe compound and our casita offers a stylish, art filled space. We have gathered furnishings, textiles and artifacts from our travels and proudly display art from our family collection. The Casita sleeps 2-4 people comfortably with a Queen bed including a newly purchased Serta mattress (hybrid foam/spring) and an American Leather Queen sleeper sofa (Tempur-Pedic mattress) for overflow. We offer a family-friendly unit and allow children of all ages. We are also serious dog lovers and understand the joy of traveling with your companion but prefer only 1 dog, no cats.
Guests will enjoy our casita’s authentic kiva wood-burning fireplace. You will also find two private outdoor areas, front and back. The front courtyard is perfect for a quiet breakfast or evening happy hour. The back patio provides a secluded space to soak in the hot tub and watch the stars at night. Additional amenities include a new washer and dryer, a fully equipped kitchen, Smart TV and high speed internet. In additional to the casita's close proximity to town, just around the corner is El Monte Sagrado. This 5 star resort offers a wonderful spot for fine or casual dining. A fantastic bar. And a full service spa. The grounds are spectacular. Yet another special bonus when choosing Luna Rosa at Casa Encantada!

No cats! No birds! Nothing except dogs. Well behaved dogs considered but must discuss prior to booking. All dogs must be leashed when in common area and cannot bark when left alone.

One vehicle allowed only during your stay. Maximum 2 guests without prior written approval for any additional short term visitor. Short term visitors considered must be discussed prior to booking.

Enchanting

The cottage, the neighborhood, hot tub and beautiful grounds took us away from the stress of our busy lives while at the same time all conveniences were nearby. I see this place as a wonderful escape to return to over and over.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a great condo to stay at! We had a great time being so close to downtown Taos. We drove to everything because of the blizzard that came though, but was only a 1-2 minute drive to everything in the Taos square. We enjoyed Doc Martins's and the Taos Mesa Brewery often. Condo was fully stocked and the hot tub was a great amenity after a cold day! Our stay was amazing!

Great cabin -

This little VRBO cabin is wonderful! All the necessities in a small space - but let’s face it, only sleeping with the great outdoors and all the beauty of he area- what more do you need. The only negative and why I can’t give the full 5 stars- The hot tub (which was the #1 reason we wanted this place) never heated above 85..... meaning, our muscles from all day on the slopes- never got the relief we had hoped for😜. For sure, other accommodates at the local fitness club were offered - but again, that was not really what we wanted. We will rent again- and hope for a better hot tub experience next time- otherwise PERfeCt place!

Heavenly Haven

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We couldn't have been happier with this beautiful oasis in Taos. Totally quiet yet walking distance to town, the casita was immaculate and nicely furnished, with enclosed front courtyard and back patio outfitted with a hot tub! Even though the unit was a studio it felt spacious, with a well appointed kitchen, full bathroom, private bedroom area and living area with sofa and tv. Our only issues were that we couldn't get the kiva fireplace to vent properly (set off smoke detectors twice!) and ultimately gave up trying. The bathroom sink also didn't drain properly. Both easy fixes. All in all, 5 stars across the board including an outstanding management company. Thanks so much.

Nice location, some exceptions

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The casita had a lovely location, quiet and private. It was well appointed with equipment and amount of furniture, but my problem was with the bed. The first night, my husband and I rolled to the center. We are neither one exceptionally large people and have not had this problem in other rooms. When we removed the 4 inch mattress pad the next night to try and improve sleeping, we found dried blood on the mattress--pretty gross. Furniture surfaces were mostly hard, no really comfortable lounging, inside or out. I enjoy taking a cup of coffee out to the patio and reading. No really good place to do that. The place was clean, other than aforementioned mattress, and roomy enough for 2, but I wouldn't have wanted to accommodate more than that for anything but sleeping. We only spoke to management twice and she was very nice, though we couldn't find her when we checked out and left the key under the mat. Most storage was in use for supplies, not much room for our stuff. That said, we would stay here again if we were assured a new mattress had been placed and some softer chairs were provided. If you are a big reader, bring your own book light unless you plan to read in bed or like to sit outside, as lighting is not conducive for long sessions of reading. I would recommend this place with the above reservations.

Lovely Retreat within Walking Distance to Downtown

My daughter and I (and our pup) enjoyed our three day girl’s get away to Taos. Lola is a very responsive and kind host. The house was clean and cheery and the landscaping and flowers beautiful. We loved having breakfast on the front porch and watching all the beautiful birds. Overall a lovely place to stay in Taos.

Very nice place to stay in Taos.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Stayed for 3 nights - first visit to Taos. Lovely small unit, most suitable for one person. My only concern is that the property manager never made contact with me the entire time. I reached out to her later than directed (4pm when I arrived instead of by 12noon - I had no cell reception during my travel) and so never met her and never received a key to the unit. It was unlocked when I arrived. I tried to reach out again and never received any call or text. I was somewhat disturbed that I couldn't lock the unit each day, but had no other choice than to go about my day and hope everything would be there when I got home -- not good. No contact on my departure either, so I had to leave the unit unlocked. You might also want to mention that the unit doesn't have a hair dryer in its stock. Thank goodness I had brought one for other parts of my travels. Also worth mentioning that it IS a walkable distance into downtown Taos -- daytime. After dark, bring a flashlight. Other than that, lovely little casita. Just the right intro to Taos.

Christmas Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stay in Taos every Christmas and rented this unit last minute because the home we usually rent was sold. There were four of us (two adults and two kids) this unit is best for two people. The fold out couch was very comfortable unlike most and was great for the kids. The radiant heat is great and the unit stays the perfect temp. The kitchen was great and stocked well, perfect for cooking for two. It's too tight for four and there is not room at the small table for more than two. It's a great place to stay for two people but I would not recommend it for more. It's a classic Taos condo and I would stay there again. The bathroom sink did not drain well but that is an easy fix and the door was very difficult to lock and should be addressed. If you are staying in Taos for a few days this is a great place to stay over a hotel. I would stay there again.

A wonderful return visit to beautiful Taos.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I had a very enjoyable stay in Casa Encantada #3. The well designed casas have been inspired by the town's heritage and are surrounded by beautiful well maintained gardens. They are situated in a quiet street and the surrounding tall trees attract lots of bird life. #3 is well presented with lots of art and I found it to be inviting, clean and comfortable. As a solo traveller without a car I really appreciated the casa's proximity to the plaza's shops and galleries and other historic sites nearby. The kitchen was equipped with essential items and I enjoyed lots of home cooked meals. My neighbours were very friendly and helpful, one even lending me an umbrella for the duration of my stay and another helping me with items which needed to be recycled as there are no bins on site for this. I found Premiere Properties to be extremely efficient and helpful. They answered all of my enquiries by email and being able to pay in two instalments suited me. This was my third visit to New Mexico and I would like to return to Casa Encantada in the future to spend further time in Taos as it is a magical place which has captured my heart.

So-so Rental Property

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property was in a nice location just outside of Taos. It was a casita within a group of private and rental properties in a wooded location. The front and back exterior patios were OK, but needed weeding and some TLC. The hot tub on the back patio was super! As to the interior, storage was lacking, particularly in the bathroom. The kitchen appliances were very nice. The furniture and bed were adequate. However, there was no air circulation because there was no ceiling fan, the front and back doors were not screened, and the single small window in the living area was broken (would not stay open). Yes one could prop that window open with a piece of firewood, and we did. Yet on the 94 degree days we encountered this was insufficient. Finally, the lock system on the front door was a problem. Following the directions provded by the management, one would usually be successful. However on four occasions during our 6 night stay, the latch would freeze in the locked position. It took a few to many tries to unfreeze it. My calls to management resulted in my being told I tried to open it improperly, when in fact I followed their printed directions.

About the host

Hosted by Mike and Lola

Host profile image
In 2015 we were so fortunate to purchase our first home in Taos, an area that holds special meaning to us. We moved here from Washington D.C. in 2009 as a young couple, we became engaged and were married on the Taos Mesa in 2011. Although our careers eventually brought us to Denver CO, we consider Taos our first true home together. Our beloved casita allows us to visit Taos often to appreciate the charm of this historic town and to enjoy the beauty of Northern New Mexico, a landscape unlike any other. We are thrilled to be able to share our home, and our love for the area, with each of our guests throughout the seasons.

Why they chose this property

Taos is like nowhere else. The diversity of cultures, intertwined and thriving. The scenic beauty, from the high desert to the alpine ski valley. The stunning Rio Grande Gorge. And the historic Taos Pueblo. Painters the world over travel to experience the famous "Taos light", finding inspiration from this charming art colony. You'll want to return over and over again to soak up the vibe still in the air from The Summer of Love. And we haven't even mentioned the outdoor activities! During our diligent search for the perfect property in Taos, we found nothing that could compare to this casita at Casa Encantada!

What makes this property unique

Our casita is built on what was originally historic pueblo lands. Over a hundred years ago, the property became a family compound which included a chapel, stables and various living quarters. Recognizing the beauty and location value, developers purchased the compound in 2005. Casa Encantada evolved into what it is today- authentic yet completely updated. The original structures were preserved/repurposed. And additional structures were added. The large common yard was also preserved- a rarity in Taos. The compound is surrounded by a wooded area, also uncommon for property so conveniently located to town.
