Our second visit to Casa De Luz, Sharon was as always so helpful and welcoming. The Casa was perfectly prepared and we really look forward to coming again. One of our favorite places.

Perfect Vacation!

We had an amazing time! The house was perfect. There was everything we could possibly need. We loved having the hot tub to relax in after a long day of hiking. We would definitely stay here and recommend it to our friends!

Our anniversary at Casa de Luz was everything we expected. Very relaxing and enjoyable.

Casa de Luz is a beautiful house, very quiet and private with the hot tub being a big plus. The location was perfect for the Rio Grande Gorge, Arroyo Seco, Taos Pueblos and Taos historic district. We couldn't have asked for a more thoughtful and gracious host for our 40th anniversary. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Perfect For Our Needs

Nice comfy place. Beautiful views from the couch. Very convenient for our days in Taos and our two visits down to Santa Fe. Great yard for our dog. Very dog friendly, our dog made some new friends in the neighborhood. All in all a great place for a vacation.

Great house near Taos!!!

We have stayed in many VRBOs and this on ranks near the top. It was easy to see that the owner has put a lot of thought into the decor, stocking and maintenance of the home. Everything was perfect. The location afforded scenic views and total privacy and quiet. If you are looking for the perfect Taos getaway spot, this is it!!

Very Welcoming!

We stayed at Casa De Luz for 3 nights in Feb. while we enjoyed Taos Ski Valley. The house is well decorated and very comfortable--beds, showers, --even a hot tub. The owners had many nice little extra bonuses that we've not received other places. We were close to skiing, great restaurants and good shopping. We'd definitely stay there again when skiing Taos. It's also easy to find with GPS.

Beautiful!!!

We loved Casa De Luz! Sharon was extremely hospitable and friendly. The property has a gorgeous view and a nice big fenced in backyard which my pups loved. It is a quick drive to town, but is still very secluded. I visit Taos often, but now will always check to see if Sharon's place is available first!

Lots of love for Casa de Luz

Perfect location for a girls weekend! Well appointed home with wonderful views, beautiful decor, and plenty of space to stretch out and relax. Sharon is communicative and responded in a timely manner to all of our questions and comments. We had so much fun and enjoyed the home so much this may turn into an annual trip!

As good as it gets!

Ideal location to enjoy everything Taos has to offer, without having to deal with any touristy crowds. The home is beautiful inside and out. Very well maintained, had everything we needed. The check-in/Check-out was easy and convenient. We really didn’t want to leave! Thank you, Sharon for sharing your home!

Peaceful Getaway

The home is conveniently located about 10 minutes from downtown Taos and very close to all sorts of outdoor activities. The home was welcoming, comfortable and clean. The soothing music and bottle of wine were a wonderful surprise upon entering the home after a LONG drive. We will be back!

July 4th break

This property is in a quiet locale near the ski valley, Arroyo Seco and 15 minutes from Taos Plaza. The fenced yard was perfect for our dogs. The house has everything you need for an extended stay. You can eat in or restaurants are nearby. This was our second visit to Casa de Luz and we really enjoyed our stay. The owner and manager are very accommodating and we recommend this property to everyone.

Perfect Getaway

We came up for a few days during a holiday weekend. The owner of this property has thought of everything! A very comfortable house, and very relaxing after a long day of skiing. We also had our two dogs with us, and they loved the backyard and enjoyed bird watching. This absolutely felt like a home away from home. We will most definitely be back if we plan on heading to Taos again in the future.

Terrific Memorial Day Weekend Stay

What a fantastic property! We couldn't have asked for more. Everything from booking through departure was perfect. The home was in pristine condition when we arrived, and everything we needed, from pots and pans to towels to doggie waste bags was available and easily located. We loved being a bit outside of town and close to great dining in charming Arroyo Seco. Sharon obviously takes great pride in keeping up the home and being a great host. We are looking forward to returning soon.

Beautiful home in perfect location!

We could not have been more pleased with our stay at Casa De Luz. We loved being in a location between the ski valley, Seco, and Taos. It made visiting all of our favorite spots convenient and relatively quick. Regarding the home itself, the pictures do not do it justice. Everything is clean and beautifully appointed, and the outdoor space is truly special! Sharon went above and beyond to communicate with us before our trip to make sure we had everything we needed. We look forward to staying here during future trips to Taos!!

Perfect relaxation

We had a truly wonderful stay. To start, you can tell that the owner put a lot of care into the home & preparation of info for travelers. Personal touches leading up to the trip & upon arrival were uniquely thoughtful. The house has such a beautiful view, is well maintained & stocked of amenities. The fenced in yards are great for both dog & small children to play. It was fun to also watch all of the birds that visit the back yard. We enjoyed the hot tub too! Location was great for us to get out & explore but also have privacy. I'd definitely recommend this rental.

Peaceful Retreat

My Husband, dog and I returned recently from our week long stay at Casa De Luz. We have been coming to Taos for many years and enjoyed this beautiful, comfortable and well stocked home. We felt at home the moment we walked in after a long drive. Sharon had candles glowing and a beautiful bottle of wine waiting for us and some delicious dog biscuits for our boy, Joe! We enjoyed the privacy of the yard, spa and cozy rooms. Meals on the patio were also a treat. Casa De Luz is a lovely home and we enjoyed our stay very much. Thank You Sharon.

Family reunion in Taos

Casa De Luz is a beautiful home located in a great location of El Prado/Taos. It was a great place for a family reunion. The house was very clean and provided all the amenities. It was very easy to enter. Sharon as the host was available by phone and email to answer any questions. Also, she had provided lots of information about the area. All the decorations and touches made it very homey. The hot tub was a hit and in a perfect location to gaze at the endless sky at night. Will definitely rent again when back in the area!

Perfect Again!

This was our third time staying at Casa de Luz, and it's still perfect! My wife, mother and 2 children ages 5 and 6 stayed here as part of our ski vacation. As was the case both other visits, it was clean, comfortable and convenient. The kids loved the Hershey kisses, and the grown-ups enjoyed the complimentary bottle of very nice wine. Dealing with Sharon is a joy. She was very attentive to our needs and showed a true interest in helping us enjoy our stay in any way possible. Enjoying a view of the Northern New Mexico night sky while soaking in the hot tub was one of the highlights. We'll be back again next year!

Casa de Luz should be the standard for VRBO

We have been staying at Casa de Luz once or twice a year for the past five years. Yes, we love Taos and being able to stay at Sharon's beautiful house is a treat. My wife and I and our two (well behaved, shelter mutt) dogs always book VRBO when we travel and we always compare properties to Casa de Luz. Very few reach the standard of this house. It is immaculately clean, the linens and bed are top notch, the kitchen is well equipped and the comfort can't be beat. You can watch the sunrise over Taos mountain from the living room or enjoy the gorgeous Taos sunset from the backyard patio. The location is fantastic since we like the solitude but easy, short drive into the center of Taos. Wifi is strong and dependable. The house is furnished beautifully and the art is wonderful. As a disclaimer I have to say that NO, I am not Sharon's cousin!

Casa de Luz is the best!

My husband and I, our son and daughter-in-law stayed at Casa de Luz for a long ski weekend. We frequently rent VRBOs and this one is heads and above the rest! This was our second stay here. We arrived to cheery lighting, low, welcoming music, a bottle of wine and even dog biscuits for our dogs! What a cozy, lovely home to sink into and relax! The host provides for every need and the attention to the slightest detail was so very welcomed! We have stayed in homes where an extra roll of paper towel wasn't available, so to find q-tips, make-up remover pads, even microwave popcorn was one delight after another! Plenty of towels, great hot tub at the end of a ski day, comfortable beds, great TV and music system, books, games... They really DID think of everything! Thank you so much for the many large and small kindnesses! Great place to spend time with the family!!!!
