Bishops Lodge Villa Corazones is only 15 minutes from Santa Fe Plaza, the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, and Loretto Chapel. But when you stay here, you might be tempted to do little more than admire the mountains while lazing on the patio or relax indoors among the luxurious Spanish Colonial furnishings. And we don’t blame you! The three-bedroom, three-bathroom retreat is easily as magical as its surroundings.

You’ll be charmed the moment you step into Bishops Lodge Villa Corazones’s spacious living room. The wood-planked ceiling with viga beams, the tiled floor, and the sumptuous leather seating invite you to kick back, relax, and make yourself at home. A wall of windows lets you gaze out at the mountains even while you sprawl out on the sofa. Once you manage to tear your gaze away from the scenery, you can watch a movie on the flat-screen TV with cable or surf the web via the complimentary WiFi. On brisk winter evenings the fireplace will bathe the room in a welcoming golden warmth.

From the living room, you can access the lovely patio space. Bring your morning coffee out to the table and listen to hummingbirds greet the day or enjoy al fresco dinners amid the fresh mountain breezes. You can cook outdoors as well, on the gas grill. There’s even a kiva stove to keep you toasty as you enjoy a late-night glass of wine beneath the canopy of stars.

Of course, you can dine indoors as well. Bishops Lodge Villa Corazones’s dining room features a handsome wood table that seats six, with leather-upholstered chairs so comfortable you’ll want to linger long after dessert is over. Adjacent to the table is a granite-top breakfast bar with three stools. Separating the dining room from the kitchen, it’s a handy place to sit and help with the cooking. The kitchen is equipped with gleaming stainless-steel appliances, a bevy of cookware and tableware, and plenty of counter space and elbow room. Even if you eat your main meals out at the numerous nearby restaurants, you’ll still appreciate having a coffeemaker for your wake-me-up cup of joe and a blender for mixing smoothies or margaritas!

Each of Bishops Lodge Villa Corazones’s three suites includes a flat-screen TV, splendid views, and its own bathroom, so you won’t have to wait for your turn to take a shower. Each bedroom opens onto an outdoor space as well so you can slip outside to marvel at the sunrise without waking the others. The primary suite is especially luxurious, with a sumptuous king-size bed and a fireplace, along with a soaking tub and a shower in its bathroom. You’ll want to turn in early and sleep late simply to revel in the bedroom’s serenity.

When you visit Bishops Lodge Villa Corazones in the summer, you can enjoy an additional perk: the outdoor pool. After your swim, stretch out on a poolside chaise. Just be sure to apply your sunscreen first, as the gentle breezes and the warmth of the sun could easily lull you to sleep.

As tempting as it might be to spend your days lounging on the patio or by the pool, you should definitely take advantage of Bishops Lodge Villa Corazones’s proximity to the local attractions. In addition to Santa Fe Plaza and its surrounding neighborhood, you’ll be close to the trendy Santa Fe Railyard and the galleries, shops, and restaurants of Canyon Road. If it’s hiking you want, the Atalaya Mountain, Dale Ball, and Dorothy Stewart trails are less than 20 minutes away. Want to hit the slopes? You can drive to Ski Santa Fe in little more than a half-hour.

Bishops Lodge Villa Corazones ensures that your Santa Fe vacation will be especially memorable—perhaps your best getaway yet. Don’t miss out: Book your stay today, before someone else beats you to it!

Please note, the community pool is seasonal from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
