Remote desert, luxury Inn - Abiquiu Lake views, gourmet breakfast included!

"My biggest regret is that I did not spend the entire week at this bed and breakfast. Every place that you go after The Grand Hacienda will be a disappointment." Guest review.

THE EXPERIENCE

The Grand Hacienda of Abiquiú Lake is an adults-only luxury bed and breakfast inn experience, a feast for the senses in a remote and quiet location.

Modern luxuries, sophisticated services, green and eco-friendly – think of a small, boutique luxury inn – blended with authentic architecture and inspired design – think adobe and southwestern style. The combination, along with its award-winning hosts, makes The Hacienda the best place to stay in gorgeous northern New Mexico. With only three suites, the Hacienda is a serene escape, a retreat nestled on a mesa top overlooking Abiquiu Lake, Ghost Ranch, the Red Cliffs, Pedernal, and plains of red, yellow, purple, and green. Dramatically perched on a mesa top overlooking Abiquiú Lake, this brand new, elegant, high-end bed and breakfast offers a luxury experience in a location surrounded by quiet stillness. Located in the middle of Georgia O'Keeffe country, you will feel what she did when saying, "It's something that's in the air – it's different. The sky is different, the wind is different." This breathtaking land and the beauty of The Hacienda are sure to soothe, calm and inspire exploration.

​Staying here is all about the experience.

Our guests arrive as strangers and leave as friends. This is an extraordinary get-away bed and breakfast experience, the most luxurious lodging option in the area. Even if you don't think of yourself as a B&B person, we know you will find your time here to be the highlight of your vacation. We are different - and you won't want to leave!

Whether you want private, intimate time by yourselves or maybe you want to engage with others at a Happy Hour or join in a competitive game of Bocce Ball - the choice is yours! Join in great conversations around the fireplace, meet incredible like-minded people, or roast s'mores on your private portal and enjoy an evening of intimate privacy. At The Grand Hacienda, you will find yourself in a magically beautiful and inspiring location where you can do as much - or as little - as you want! The local area is full of history, culture, geology, and adventures. But you will want to carve out time to enjoy your destination - the stillness and beauty of The Grand Hacienda.

Your suite opens from a private entrance from the Grand Plaza into your spectacular living space. Live comfortably with a king-sized bed made up of luxurious linens; a spa bathroom with a walk-in shower; cable TV, WIFI, coffee, and more amenities; and a private outdoor lounge with a chiminea fire pot, lounge chairs, and expansive views. Shared amenities on the property include a fully stocked kitchen; laundry facilities; the Great Room with kiva fireplace and library; onsite Mercado gift store; a bubbling hot tub on the mesa cliff; a rooftop deck and lakeside terrace; bocce ball and jenga outdoor games; hiking trails; and so much more.

​Outdoors, enjoy the gated and walled inner plaza, try your hand at a game of Jenga or Bocce Ball, enjoy the lakeside portal, soak in the outdoor hot tub, roast s'mores in the outdoor fire pit, use the grill, or hike the property.

Enjoy free parking, complimentary firewood, laundry supplies, and kitchen supplies.

Start each morning with a three-course gourmet breakfast and specialty coffees, and end each day with an afternoon treat or happy hour and a spectacular sunset. Because we have no light pollution, this is the perfect location to use our telescope and check out stars, planets, and the Milky Way.

Our location is like no other. Remote and away from the crowds, the drive to our property is about 4 miles on a dirt road, winding through beautiful country as you make your way towards the lake. Pedernal stands guard on one side, and Abiquiu Lake and Ghostranch line the other side. The 360 views of spectacular vistas, red cliffs, and the lake are so much better than we can capture in a picture. You do have to see The Grand Hacienda to believe it.

Your hosts are Carolyn and Tom...we love Abiquiu and love to share this amazing place with our guests. Allow us to show you the magic of Abiquiú, Santa Fe, Taos, and northern New Mexico – it's right outside your door.
