Peaceful New Mexico Retreat w/ Panoramic Mtn Views

Reviews

• Finding solace in an off-the-grid retreat

  4/5

  Finding solace in an off-the-grid retreat with panoramic mountain views. This 3,500-sq-ft, 3-bed, 2-bath adobe vacation property is perched on a 10-acre hilltop, with unobstructed 360-degree panoramic views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. #peaceful #livinginthemoment #springbreak

• Great stay

  5/5

  We had so much fun staying at this house. You definitely need the four-wheel-drive to get to the top. Breathtaking view of the mountains in the morning. Very easy to contact the host back up generator available if it is cloudy so no worries about it being solar powered we had absolutely no problems.

• Beautiful scenery but uninviting house

  2/5

  Only 1 bedroom on the main floor. The others are either upstairs or down. Both bathrooms are on the main floor. I would assume that this house was setup as a meditative retreat? There are Hindu statues, a book of “blessings” and moon and star symbols throughout the home as well as a pentagram over the bed upstairs?? The furniture was very uncomfortable and falling apart.The scenery and grounds were beautiful!

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Linda, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed if this wasn't the one for you. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
  
  - The home was designed with sacred geometry elements, originally intended as a healing retreat, which is why you may have noticed specific symbols and statues that contribute to the calming and restorative atmosphere
  - As seen in the listing photos, the upstairs bedroom features a hexagram, not a pentagram, which is a symbol used to promote positive energy and healing
  - The statues you mentioned are of Buddhist origin, representing universal themes of healing and spiritual well-being, intended to foster a peaceful environment for all guests
  - The home, built on the slope of a hill, is designed to harmonize with the surrounding environment at nearly 9,000 feet above sea level. The listing photos accurately reflect the home's design, including the placement of the bedrooms and bathrooms
  - We routinely check and maintain the furniture to ensure it is comfortable and in good condition, and we will inspect the items you mentioned to make any necessary improvements
  
  We appreciate your feedback so we can continue to improve and help this homeowner provide guests with the 5-star service they are known for. We hope to host you again soon!
