THINGS TO KNOW
The fireplace is not operational.
Although this home is not equipped with central air-conditioning, it is rarely needed with the mild weather in Taos (elevation 7,000'). Ceiling fans can be found in the living room and both bedrooms. The living room has a portable air-conditioning unit that offers cooling in the common areas for hotter days.
** to keep the house cooler during warm days, close the living room blinds in the morning and the dining room/kitchen blinds in the afternoon. Ceiling fans are also located in every room.

Perfect House and Location!
This house was great! It was very clean and had plenty of space and everything we needed for our stay! It was close to the plaza and all the attractions. We’ll definitely be staying here next time we visit Taos!
We enjoyed our stay. Everything was just as it was advertised. Very comfortable and within walking distance to the Plaza. We would stay here again.

Beautiful adobe in a perfect location
Home was perfectly and centrally located for all our needs. Loved the little touches of southwestern art to the house, everything was charming. Bed was very comfortable and bathrooms nicely appointed
This is a lovely, comfortable home that was within walking distance to all downtown/plaza shops. The yard and house are wonderful.

House with gorgeous view within walking distance to plaza
The view of Taos Mountain was wonderful! The mountain got snow while we were there & it was very pretty. The house is in a great location for getting to plaza & getting out of town quickly to head up to the mountains.

Great little adobe!!!
This home is cozy, clean, and beautifully decorated. The beds are very comfortable, and it is located in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood close to downtown. We had everything we needed for a wonderful stay. We would love to come back!!
My family came to Taos for a short vacation and stayed here. Great place to base out of for Northern New Mexico sights. The house was well equipped and even though it didn’t have an air conditioner, the breeze and ceiling fans cooled the place sufficiently.Great communications with the management company. I would stay here again if I’m ever back this way!
Loved the house, was very clean, great location to central Taos and easy to access Taos Ski Valley. This was exactly what we needed for a family ski trip, great master and two additional bedrooms, one big bed for our twin girls to share and another room we used for baby to sleep. Look forward to booking whenever we come back to Toas!!

Beautiful Casa Raya
This small adobe home has been beautifully renovated and taken care of. Very nice furnishings, comfortable beds, and lovingly decorated with beautiful artwork. All the amenities needed if you want to stay in and cook/eat. The casa is close to the Plaza, shopping, dining, and entertainment, and we would have walked if the weather had been nicer. We would stay here again, no question!
Fairly easy access to lots of shopping and restaurants
If we were younger we would have walked to the historic plaza. No big deal to drive the five or so blocks. Nice quiet neighborhood. The back yard and Mountain View is fantastic. Very tastefully decorated with comfortable furniture.
I will recommend this place to family & friends.
The pictures of this property don’t do it justice. It is truly one of the most beautiful vacation homes we’ve stayed in. A historic treasure with warm toned hardwood floors, beautiful hand painted tile accents in the bathrooms and kitchen, lovely redone antique furnishings throughout and stunning local paintings and decor. The beds were super comfy as well. It was close to shopping and restaurants. Our family of 3 had a wonderful stay.
In town for some late season skiing. Convenient location to town and skiing both Taos and Angel Fire. Beds were very comfortable and neighborhood was quiet. Only drawback was weak wifi but I understand that can be challenging in adobe houses. Thanks again!
We spent thanksgiving week(Tuesday-Saturday) in Taos. Weather was beautiful, so we enjoyed being outdoors as much as possible. The house was okay for the 6 of us as we brought a blow-up bed. Some of the cooking utensils and pans could definitely be updated; but outside of that everything was great!!!!

Let us assure you that we value your feedback and have passed your comment along to our homeowner for consideration. We’re glad that this did not impact your overall stay with us.

Only issue we had- was the front lock would occasionally not engage (and lock or unlock).

Hi Robert,
Thank you so much for your review, and we’re happy to hear that you had a good stay at our place! That being said, we’re so sorry to hear about the lock issues during your stay with us. We wish we had known so that we could have helped out then -- our 24/7 guest hotline is always available if anything ever comes up while staying at one of our properties. You were great guests and we can’t wait to have you stay with us again! -The TurnKey VR Team
Overall very good. However wi-fi is very spotty and unreliable. Would also suggest later check out time. Noon would be less rushed.
