Best place in Abiquiu!
Our week-long stay was made 10x more memorable because we stayed at The Grand Hacienda. Each morning started with a hearty and healthy breakfast served with care by the hosts Carolyn and Tom. They made a space for guests to get to know each other as well as rest and relax in beautiful solitude. The property is set in a very private location with views overlooking Abiquiu Lake and the Pedernal - you couldn't take a bad photo if you tried. The accommodations were top notch and very comfortable - they took great care in designing and building the hacienda! We look forward to coming back again to explore more of New Mexico!

Not just a place to stay....but an experience..
This is a new property just opened in 2020, but Tom and Carolyn obviously had a lot of experience and Tom designed a masterpiece that perfectly showcases the beauty of the area around it. Quiet and plenty of privacy. A kitchenette was well equipped for preparing your own lunches and dinners. Don't miss the outstanding breakfast though which highlights local flavors and includes herbs from their own garden. There is a long list of things to do in the area including Ghost Ranch, hiking, Stream Trains, Santa Fe and much more. Stargazing at night. Tom and Carolyn are gracious hosts, both eager to help, but respectful of your privacy. A memorable stay.

Beyond Expectations
For an adventure that we planned just a day or two before our arrival in Abiquiu, the Grand Hacienda somehow provided us with one of the most memorable 24 hours of renewal in recent memory. From the moment I first reached out with question after question, owners Carolyn and Tom had a way of making us feel like friends they had known for a very long time. And after our stay, we felt like family. Although the accommodations and views were as fine as any we've experienced during our many travels over the years. what made this experience extra special was the love that the hosts put into everything they do - from the meals to the guidance on not-to-miss local sights to the attention for every detail in design of the property and the amenities. Carolyn and Tom are special people who have created an amazing luxury retreat from the non-stop hustle most of us have become accustomed to. Thank you to both for so generously sharing your love for all things beautiful. Without a doubt, we will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Carolyn Calfee

Host profile image
The serenity, the peace, the spirituality of the land and place – it was everything we were looking for as we started the second half of our lives. With a goal of providing exceptional experiences for our guests, we blended our previous careers in finance with our love of New Mexico – and our love of cooking, design, hospitality, history, and culture - The Grand Hacienda was born. Breakfast every morning is really an act of love, a culinary and social experience. We could not have found a better location to fulfill our love of hiking and the outdoors. Sacred lands once home to indigenous peoples, sharing land that they walked before us. The practically-unused Abiquiu Lake is almost like our private lake and oasis.

The sense of detail is very evident throughout the property. The placement of outlets, windows, light switches. The catching of the light, the catching of the sunrises, exploring the early morning sunshine in cool temperatures on the resalanos. The grounded floors and lack of EMFs. The floors, heated by the heat generated in our greenhouse.

We grow our own herbs and vegetables, we buy produce and eggs from local organic farmers.

We thought that guest interactions with the host owners would be a crucial part of each guests’ experience. Our guests interact with us every morning during and after breakfast, where we talk about the day’s adventures and what to see and do. And, we often meet up again after they return – exhilarated, red clay on their shoes, tired muscles ready for the hot tub. Playing a small role in providing this experience for our guests is pure joy for us. We are happy to give in thanks for all this land gives to us. We hope you will reach out to us and come and visit our paradise. You are truly welcome here.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this land and built The Grand Hacienda because we love the history and culture of the area, love the land, and want to share this special place with others. The views are so magnificent they truly can't be captured on a camera. The stillness and peaceful energy is like no other place we have ever been.

What makes this property unique

The Hacienda was built in 2019 with a very green footprint: Water reclamation, solar energy, limited EMFs in your suite, "earthing" floor and so much more. We grow most of our herbs and vegetables in our greenhouse. We buy as much of food as possible from local farmers and farmers markets. Enjoy spectacular views; modern technology; private outdoor patios; private entrances; spa showers; king-sized beds; and wonderful breakfasts, coffees and afternoon treats. Enjoy your exclusive benefits: lakefront rocky beach area and hiking trails; access to the Mercado gift shop and catered meals; spa massages in your suite; bocce ball and jenga; and so much more.
