Our anniversary at Casa de Luz was everything we expected. Very relaxing and enjoyable.

Casa de Luz is a beautiful house, very quiet and private with the hot tub being a big plus. The location was perfect for the Rio Grande Gorge, Arroyo Seco, Taos Pueblos and Taos historic district. We couldn't have asked for a more thoughtful and gracious host for our 40th anniversary. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Lana, we're so glad that the addition of the fenced yards on Casa de Luz's 1-1/3 acres was a bonus for you & your pups. A bit of grassy oasis, among the fragrant sagebrush loved by our local birds & rabbits, is the best of both worlds, in our humble opinion. We're grateful for your sharing your experience with us & others. Thanks for being such great guests who we welcome back anytime you're ready to return to our Land of Enchantment.

Great house near Taos!!!

We have stayed in many VRBOs and this on ranks near the top. It was easy to see that the owner has put a lot of thought into the decor, stocking and maintenance of the home. Everything was perfect.

Very Welcoming!

We stayed at Casa De Luz for 3 nights in Feb. while we enjoyed Taos Ski Valley. The house is well decorated and very comfortable--beds, showers, --even a hot tub. The owners had many nice little extra bonuses that we've not received other places. We were close to skiing, great restaurants and good shopping. We'd definitely stay there again when skiing Taos. It's also easy to find with GPS.

We loved Casa De Luz! Sharon was extremely hospitable and friendly. The property has a gorgeous view and a nice big fenced in backyard which my pups loved. It is a quick drive to town, but is still very secluded. I visit Taos often, but now will always check to see if Sharon's place is available first!

Terrific Memorial Day Weekend Stay

What a fantastic property! We couldn't have asked for more. Everything from booking through departure was perfect. The home was in pristine condition when we arrived, and everything we needed, from pots and pans to towels to doggie waste bags was available and easily located. We loved being a bit outside of town and close to great dining in charming Arroyo Seco. Sharon obviously takes great pride in keeping up the home and being a great host. We are looking forward to returning soon.

Still Perfect!

We stayed here once before in 2012 and if it's possible we enjoyed it even more this time! So well maintained, and a perfect setup for a family of 4 (plus grandma). Our goal for the vacation was to ski hard and enjoy family time off the mountain, and Casa de Luz was perfect for this. If I could design my dream home I would just copy Casa de Luz. Can't wait to come back next year! I won't even bother looking at any other lodging options.
Response from VrboOwner on 3 Apr 2020
It was great to hear from you this year to know that your 3-generation family would be returning from near and far for another stay. And yes, we're biased, but we think the unique layout of the house and grounds offers the best in views and privacy. Thanks, Thomas, for your kind and thoughtful comments that I've shared with my "team" to know their great efforts pay off. I couldn't do it without them. Looking forward to hosting your family again next year!

Beautiful home in perfect location!

We could not have been more pleased with our stay at Casa De Luz. We loved being in a location between the ski valley, Seco, and Taos. It made visiting all of our favorite spots convenient and relatively quick. Regarding the home itself, the pictures do not do it justice. Everything is clean and beautifully appointed, and the outdoor space is truly special! Sharon went above and beyond to communicate with us before our trip to make sure we had everything we needed. We look forward to staying here during future trips to Taos!!

We had a truly wonderful stay. To start, you can tell that the owner put a lot of care into the home & preparation of info for travelers. Personal touches leading up to the trip & upon arrival were uniquely thoughtful. The house has such a beautiful view, is well maintained & stocked of amenities. The fenced in yards are great for both dog & small children to play. It was fun to also watch all of the birds that visit the back yard. We enjoyed the hot tub too! Location was great for us to get out & explore but also have privacy. I'd definitely recommend this rental.

Peaceful Retreat

My Husband, dog and I returned recently from our week long stay at Casa De Luz. We have been coming to Taos for many years and enjoyed this beautiful, comfortable and well stocked home. We felt at home the moment we walked in after a long drive. Sharon had candles glowing and a beautiful bottle of wine waiting for us and some delicious dog biscuits for our boy, Joe! We enjoyed the privacy of the yard, spa and cozy rooms. Meals on the patio were also a treat. Casa De Luz is a lovely home and we enjoyed our stay very much. Thank You Sharon.

Family reunion in Taos

Casa De Luz is a beautiful home located in a great location of El Prado/Taos. It was a great place for a family reunion. The house was very clean and provided all the amenities. It was very easy to enter. Sharon as the host was available by phone and email to answer any questions. Also, she had provided lots of information about the area. All the decorations and touches made it very homey. The hot tub was a hit and in a perfect location to gaze at the endless sky at night. Will definitely rent again when back in the area!

Perfect Again!

This was our third time staying at Casa de Luz, and it's still perfect! My wife, mother and 2 children ages 5 and 6 stayed here as part of our ski vacation. As was the case both other visits, it was clean, comfortable and convenient. The kids loved the Hershey kisses, and the grown-ups enjoyed the complimentary bottle of very nice wine. Dealing with Sharon is a joy. She was very attentive to our needs and showed a true interest in helping us enjoy our stay in any way possible. Enjoying a view of the Northern New Mexico night sky while soaking in the hot tub was one of the highlights. We'll be back again next year!
