Appreciated the comfort amenities provided (coffee, snacks, well equipped bathroom.)A better description of 2nd bedroom with 1/2 bath would have been appreciated, but it met our needs nicely. Property management was great to communicate with. Very conscious and considerate.

Taos “bohemian “ get away
This rental is well cared for with attention to authentic details. The Spanish tiles, lighting, textiles and fresh paint are well thought out. The artwork is well placed and many personal touches throughout make you “feel” Taos. The RO drinking water and thoughtful snacks, were much appreciated! The bed linens were soft, and there is plenty of hot water, and back yard seating! Thank you!!

Perfect Taos Sanctuary
We booked the Star house for a last minute trip. It has all of the Taos charm and a great layout. It is right on Kit Carson but it is super private and even had covered parking for us. The hosts were extremely responsive and friendly. I will definitely stay here again.
