About this property

Casa del Gavilan panoramic view patio hot tub wireless wifi fireplace

  • Taos Mesa - Upper Los Colonias - Perfectly situated off Hwy 150, 4 miles to Taos, 3 miles to Arroyo Seco, 12 miles to Taos Ski Valley.

    This gracious Edelman-built adobe home was completed in 2002 and was specifically designed to capture the spectacular views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, including Lobo, Lucero (El Salto), Wheeler, and Pueblo Peaks toward the Ski Valley, and the inspiring Truchas Range to the South. The oversized windows and large outdoor spaces provide MILLION DOLLAR views and allow guests to watch the sunrise over the mountains while eating breakfast at the dining table or while relaxing in the spacious great room.

    Enjoy the splendor of sunsets from the expansive front flagstone patio, rear flagstone patio (with spa), or lounge in the privacy of the master bedroom patio. Surrounded by the comforts of new and old world furnishings collected over many years, you will be captured by the charm of this home and the spectacular natural sagebrush surroundings acclaimed by years of Taos visitors.

    Whether you come to historic Taos to enjoy the world renown culture, skiing, golfing, fishing, hiking, art galleries and restaurants, or just to relax, Casa del Gavilan is centrally located and thoughtfully appointed to ensure guests a grand and memorable respite in Taos, New Mexico.

    Great vacations begin with great lodging and that's our job! Stay at Casa del Gavilan and it’s "guaranteed" you will return for another great vacation

Fantastic property! The pictures don't do it justice. Lots of nice decorative touches and thoughtful inclusions, like extension cords on both sides of the bed. The views here are phenomenal. Definitely worth getting up early for the sunrise! A true gem!

Hale De Taos

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Hale De Taos was so so Beautiful. When we all walked in, we couldn't believe how beautiful and just how big the house was... We had more than enough room for all 7 of us. I had never rented a house before, but from here out when I go to Taos I will rent this one... It was super clean, with plenty of towels and plenty of extra blankets for the roll away beds. The Kitchen was fully equipped. Judith was very helpful, anytime I text her to ask her for any information she replied back quickly. I 100 % recommend this house. We went to the Indian Pueblo, which was very close to the house. I give Hale De Taos 5 Stars..

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The pictures don't do it justice. Hale de Taos looks much larger in person. Clean, great amenities, wifi, hot tub, plenty of outdoor seating. The property caretaker, Melanie, was awesome. Our family lab LOVED the green grass lawn at the front entrance. Kitchen was well equipped and we cooked quite a few breakfasts and dinners. Really enjoyed Pizano's Pizza, just around the corner. Great pizza, pastas, etc. We will definitely be returning!

Ski Vacation with precious little snow

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We came to ski, and had a blast. Not many runs were open but those that were were is great shape. We LOVE Taos, and this time actually spent time in town, museums and galleries and of course eating in great restaurants. The house is lovely, the views spectacular, and the location is about halfway between town and the ski valley. Perfect.

Just okay...

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House and furnishings were nice, but the interior is in need of some repair. Broken areas on some of the walls and stains from what looks like moisture/leak problems. Moiture stains also on some of the blinds. We go for views and while you can see the mountains, most of it is over the top of the neighboring houses. Same for the "sunrise and sunset" views. Had these clearly been seen in the photos, we wold have picked another home in this area. We've stayed at a couple of other rentals within blocks of this home with better overall views. This house was nice enough, we had just expected more for what we spent, compared to the others that we have stayed at. Hot tub area is nice and the night sky views were great from where it is situated. There were lots of flies and wasps/bees in the garage each morning and somehow many made their way into the house. By the way, there is only 1 TV and it's in the living room.

Very nice house and location - easy for family to find.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I would like to say that the rental was nice but had some flaws. The two roll-a-ways had issues, the springs were missing on one side and mattresses to lumpy There were not enough pillows or extra blankets. There was no air conditioner and two windows would not close due to weather stripping coming off. There were small ants in kitchen- suggestion to spray with windex... a good cleaner and repellent for sugar ants. All in all we had a very good time and the space was nice with flow of the house. Oh and My daughter wasn't able to get into the internet to do her Homework.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I would like to give this property 5 stars for the views and location. This was our second vacation at this property. The first was two years ago. The house is large and roomy. We love the front yard. It was perfect for our dog. Tile floors were great. There are some things that need attention. Both showers need new shower heads. Both only dribbled at best. The coffee pot was very small. We made do since there was only two of us but a larger group would be making many pots of coffee. The toaster was broken. I would have liked a cozy comfortable chair away from the television to read. Instructions for television would be helpful. The house was spotless. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Had a great time and our German Sheperd loved it. We felt at home since the couch in the property was exactly the same one we have in our own home! My husband is a photographer and got great star and lighting shots over the mountains. We were grateful to see so many shooting stars. Access to everything was very close and easy to get to. Had such a good time we added an additional night to our stay. We travel to New Mexico yearly and was a very memorable vacation. Simply loved sleeping with the windows/doors open and listening to the coyotes at night.
