Casita Bella -clubhous pool tennis hot tub internet stream deck patio privacy
Arroyo Seco - Los Altos - Half way between Taos, NM village and Taos Ski Valley - 8 miles either direction
Casa Bella Casita / Cabin / Guest House can be rented with or without the main house. The two Taos vacation rental homes are well separated and offer a good sense of privacy from one another. Casita Bella's tree shaded deck offers a private hot tub, outdoor dining, gas grill and is perched above the "Acequia" (a stream which is part of the famous New Mexico irrigation system - recall the novel "The Milagro Beanfield War"). In addition to the shaded and private deck is a raised flagstone patio offering extended outdoor shaded living space. Although small and cozy, Casita Bella is big on value and has become "home away from home" to many repeat guests.

Liked: Communication, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Cleanliness
The place should be clean if you charge a cleaning fee
Rough start. The couch hadn't been cleaned in months (took pics and sent to housekeeper) and I told her the hot tub looked yellow. She said she shocked it and after i sent pics she changed her tune. The property manager had her come and clean the food that had accumulated in the couch for months and reshock/replace the hot tub filter. Location is good for skiing and its quite. I would not use this property if you have over 3 people, 1 on couch and 2 in the queen bed.
This was really a perfect place to stay as our main focus was skiing Taos. it is l

Reviewer Comments:
Great location, off-the highway and minutes from skiing. We had an issue when we arrived, that was immediately resolved by the caretaker. Kudos to them for a phenomenal response. The house was generally clean and in good order; however, it could definitely use a deep clean.
Small space but all we needed. Enjoyed the hot tub in the evenings and appreciated the washer/dryer.The murphy bed was comfortable.Located a short drive from Rio Grande Gorge.
Nice property, close to everything- stream and hot tub were nice addition.

The casita sits on the banks of a lush acequia, where water is released and rushes past the back door with a pleasant swish. The house is charming and well appointed--great stay.

It was very relaxing just like advertised
We loved the rugs in the casita and the full-sized stove and fridge in the kitchenette. The washer and dryer came in handy and the gas stove made for cozy evenings. Everything we needed was there. The best part is the little deck over the stream under the beautiful trees. The neighbors are friendly and the subdivision is very quiet. The caretaker is super nice and very responsive. If you're a skier the casita is only a short drive from the ski mountain. We needed a place that took dogs and this was perfect.

Enjoyed our stay very much. The only thing I would suggest to make it better was to improve the wifi reception. It was very spotty most of the time. Maybe a router closer to the residence?
We were happy with our stay at Casa Bella, The community was very warm and inviting with a beautiful tub and a tennis court. Each night we had a romantic soak in the hot tub. The garage gave us a convenient way to pack for our outings.. The manager was very helpful.

Perfect place for wife and I. Had everything we needed - garage for car, kitchen, washer/dryer, comfy bed, etc. everything was clean, hot tub was awesome after skiing all day. Good location 1/2 way between Taos town and ski area. Great value.
Nice little Casita perfect for 2. Murphy bed was very comfortable. Hot tub was great, but cooled off quick and struggled to recover. Great location if you are skiing at Taos Ski Valley.

This cabin is very close to Taos Ski Valley (13 min drive) and the private hot tub is nice. The bed is a fold down that doubles as living room space. This is a guest house attached to the garage. The Wi-Fi and cell service is spotty. It had everything we needed to have a successful ski trip.
Everything about Casita Bella was great. The setting is lovely. The casita is cute, well-stocked and comfortable. Everything is easily stored and found to assure a great stay. We couldn’t recommend this Experience highly enough. We were very satisfied.

We had a great time. Great location, easy to find. Cozy but nice, actually larger than expected. The scenery was awesome
My husband and I and our Schnauzer, Sunny enjoyed our stay. The Murphy bed was comfortable.
Kristi was extremely helpful. She and her husband came over to light the fireplace as we had no experience with it. She responded to several other requests in a very timely manner.

Quaint and a very private patio next to a running creek!
We loved staying here! The apartment was tastefully decorated and had everything we needed. Very clean and well kept. The stream running off the porch made us feel like we were in our own oasis. We brought our dogs along, and the neighborhood is a beautiful, safe place to go on a morning and evening walks (bonus is that Taos itself is super pet friendly).
We hope to be back in the future with friends to rent out the main house as well!
Our group of four friends found this place perfect for a weekend ski trip! 2 slept on the couches which were fine for adults as long as you’re comfortable with one another :) The Murphy bed was comfy and the hot tub superb. Highly recommend!
From the time we booked until checkout, we had a seamless experience. They do have a contract you’re required to sign ahead of time, which was new for me but comforting.
The property is excellent! Gas fireplace, full kitchen, washer and dryer- PRIVATE HOT TUB! That was definitely our highlight after skiing Taos all day. It was so refreshing knowing it was available when we wanted to use it. The Murphy bed is comfortable enough- and not in the way of the space so we left it down our entire stay. WiFi works but is spotty, and tv has basic cable. It’s a smart tv, but because the WiFi isn’t great, patience is required…
We had a wonderful time there and will definitely book it again on our next trip to Taos!
Excellent location to Taos Ski Valley. The Casita is small, perfect for two people. It's an older house with some expected quirks but very clean and comfortable. The private hot tub was nice. Had most of what we needed in the kitchen. We enjoyed our stay in this very quiet neighborhood.
