Lovely Resort - Highly Reccomend
Pros:

This is a beautiful resort!! Very quiet and zen-like throughout the property. it was quiet even though we were within walking distance to town, (or take the hotel shuttle that will pick you up shortly after texting that you are ready to return). Loved the layout of the room especially with the jetted tub near the bed. perfect for a wedding venue or other high-end groups. Staff were all great. we especially liked Brooke our waitress And Greg the bartender. Brooke was so attentive and nice to chat with. She has alot of potential to expand into a higher level position, which I hope she gets the opportunity. Rate includes a full sit-down breakfast or get it to go. There restaurant food was excellent!!! The only complaint was the hot tub next to the pool jets did not work. We tried to let them know by using the phone right there next to the tub, but that didn''t work either. Highly recommend this luxury hotel!!

Fantastic and I’d stay again!
Pros:

Big, beautiful and relaxing. The pool was great, but too many kids in the hot tub.

Cons:

Huge gnats in my face every time I went outside, but that’s not really in control of the property. The in-room tub made scary noises!

Relaxing and very pleasant.
Pros:

This is a stunning hotel; so much so hard to motivate leave the place and see the city! The ponds are beautiful and the restaurant breakfast and bar menu very good for a hotel. The staff is great. It’s a bit out of the way but the shuttle will take you to all the touristy stuff. The valet went out of his way to find us a service to drive us to dinner farther out and make our reservation (do not plan on using taxis or ride share in Taos). Wish there was an atm on the property for gratuities as we ran out of cash.

Cons:

No lunch or afternoon food options.

Easy luxury, peaceful stay.
Pros:

The property was beautiful- lots of lovely outdoor space and plantings. The bar was nicely decorated and had a great atmosphere. The room was even nicer than it appeared online. Great bathroom and the best shower of our trip! Loved the robes and our little patio.

Cons:

Nothing at all!

Lovely hotel in Taos
Pros:

We stayed here for 1 night on a quick trip to Taos. The hotel is very nice, check in was easy. We had a nice room and the staff were friendly and helpful. Parking was easy and the hotel is just a short drive from the centre of town.

Pros:

Location and the room size

Cons:

The spa pool is in need of a refurb. Jacuzzi doesn’t work. There were cobwebs in the hallway. We had a light out in our room and now liquid body soap. These were easily changed but should have been checked prior to our arrival.
