About this property

Pacifico, your perfect Taos retreat, with Hot Tub

Escape to Pacifico, an authentic two bedroom adobe home set on a full acre between Taos and Taos Ski Valley. Handcrafted details, soaring viga ceilings, sweeping southern Rocky Mountain views, and a private hot tub make this a peaceful base for adventure or quiet restoration. Comfortably sleeps 6.

Step into a warm, sunlit living room framed by high viga ceilings and wide windows that showcase the Taos mountains. Gather around the traditional wood burning kiva fireplace for fireside board games or unwind with satellite TV on the 55" flat screen. The open, fully stocked kitchen features high quality appliances — gas range, microwave, refrigerator, and ultra quiet dishwasher — plus cookware and pantry staples for effortless meals. Dine together at the generously sized table or grill on the back patio while watching the sunset reflect off the mountains.

Curl up in the library among floor to ceiling bookshelves, stream music via Bluetooth, or sip wine on the private front patio while listening to the soft wind through the tees. After a day exploring, soak in the private hot tub beneath a moonlit sky so clear you can see the Milky Way.

We stayed here for the majority of our honeymoon and had an absolutely incredible time! The hot tub under the stars with the Mountain View was absolutely magical, and getting to see the runtime and sunset every day added special moments to every day. The bed and couch were both so comfortable, we would definitely stay here again!

This was our second stay at this property. Love the location with the Mountain views. The house is beautifully decorated and comfortable. We had an 18 month old with us and enjoying having a pac-n-play, booster seat and plastic dishes. We cooked a few meals and had everything we needed including spices. Wonderful stay!

This is our second stay at Pacifico - we hope it won’t be the last. Perfect spot for the two of us - and very pet friendly. The location (and the view) are perfect. We had one small issue upon arrival- but George responded immediately and appropriately. This is our favorite spot in Taos area.
