House was clean, beautiful and large. Perfect for our group of 6. Hot tub was amazing. Modern amenities, everything you need for luxurious stay. Fireplaces in bedrooms were a bonus. Would definitely stay again! Thanks for a stellar time in Taos!

Large property and very well stocked kitchen. Plenty of room for a family gathering of 4 adults and a teen. The casita is great for shorter people. Location is close enough to town.

The home and grounds exceeded our expectations! Everything in the home is tastefully done. From the architectural details to the furnishings and art work it was exceptional. The casita was a flash from the past, with its low clearance doorways to rustic kitchen cabinets. Nice!

Initially we had difficulty with the Lock Boxes because the locks we were familiar with we aligned the numbers midway on the background line but after 30 minutes of struggling with the box not opening we called the manager and when they finally answered we tried aligning the top of the numbers to the background line so the whole number was under the background line. "WOULD HAVE BEEN USEFUL INFO IN THE INSTRUCTIONS SENT TO US". Then the lockbox for the Casita door hanging on the chair outside its front door had a cover over the number pad that we could not remove so the manager had to give us the code for the care takers lock box with 3 different keys in it for us to get in the casita where we stayed as our daughter's family with 4 children stayed in the hacienda. We did not spend much time at the place as we were there for a wedding but went for walks each morning in the neighborhood with our dog which was pleasant. The location worked out great as the rehearsal and wedding were at the Taos Country Club and we could easily get there avoiding most of the road construction and we found a a really nice little coffee shop, bakery and food truck complex for morning breakfasts, and spent the first whole day at a park for the kids and dogs and then visited the gorge bridge. It was a very quick drive to our favorite Chinese Restaurant "Songs" that we have frequented on previous visits to Taos. The kids enjoyed their stay as they had bigger beds and didn't have to share.

This property met all our needs as we hosted family and friends for our daughter's wedding in Taos. The house/casita gave us all the room we needed. The location was convenient to both the wedding venue and town. All in all, a most enjoyable stay.

With 6 adults and 2 pre-teens, we loved having room to spread out. Wifi was great for remote working and the hot tub and horseshoes provided great times for relaxation.

The Hacienda is amazing. Well appointed and stocked with everything we needed. We didn't use the smaller Casita all that much, except as an office if someone needed some privacy. It too was nice and clean and is a nice option if those traveling with you desire some privacy from the main house. We loved our stay and will certainly come again. Thank you!

Great spot with true southwest style. Very unique architectural elements. Worked out great for a family and friends ski vacation.

Celebrating our 12 year anniversary with a 4 night stay in various mountain towns. Taos was our first stop, and we will always treasure the memories. The house was charming! We arrived after dark, so our only negative experience was having some difficulty navigating the various confusing gates and key boxes. But that was minor. Everything else was great! Would definitely stay again, especially with a large group!

Really cool property minutes from old town Taos. Really appreciated the original architecture of the residence, all the amenities. Still has improvements ongoing to the property (outside), really interested in seeing the final result. Would definitely stay again. Really, really enjoyed our stay, truly unique lodging.

Cool rambling house with a ton of personality. Lots of books and interesting artwork. It was very clean; the mattresses were firm and very comfortable, and the kitchen has more than you'll need to fix meals, which we did. Close enough for us to walk to town, but we're walkers. Lovely yard and a memorable stay for the 6 of us.

Reviewer Comments:
We had a great time at this house, it was super well decorated, cozy, the hot tub was great, and all of the amenities were in order. The location was nice and quiet, the beds were memory foam and comfy with plenty of extra bedding in the closet. We used both pull-out couches and the futon, it was a pleasant surprise because I didn't realize the main house had two pullouts but it did and it was great. We had a rental car because Taos is just very spread out in general. Would 100% reccomned.

We really enjoyed our stay at Alfred's Hacienda & Casita - it was the perfect layout for our 3-generation family trip. The beds were comfortable, even the pull-out sofa. We had plenty of room to spread out. We spent a lot of time outside, including meals, and it was nice to have a lot of seating on the patio. The hot tub was excellent - perfect for post-hiking relaxation. Unfortunately there was a huge red ant bed next to the horseshoe pit that made it challenging to play. Overall everything was clean, though the light fixtures needed dusting/vacuuming. Beware the rustic wood coffee table, its rough edges can prey on unsuspecting knees if you get too close.
