Steam Shower Hot Tub-Fabulous Views! In & Out Fireplaces-Free Wood-444+ reviews!

Casita Ave Maria is everyone's favorite. She is a 900-square foot, OPEN designed casita that was created and built by the Clancys. Casita Ave Maria has over 444 positive reviews. NEW MEXICO SAFE CERTIFIED.

Casita Ave Maria showcases a radiused front wall that opens up the floor space and makes the large kiva fireplace a focal point. David Clancy sculpted the incredible kiva and colored it with the perfect hue to offset it on the adobe-colored plaster that adorns all the walls. Natural wood cabinets shaped and built by David, knotty pine doors and tongue and groove ceilings wrap their warmth around you as you sit in this spiritual space and gaze out the Southern windows at the canyon, the Southwestern windows at the valley below and amazing sun sets or the mountains from the Eastern patio. Our casita is private and you have the entire patio and hot tub for your use only.

The original design of this casita boasts a HUGE patio on the Southern side, a serpentine-paved patio edged with decorative block piers with lighting insets. The Southwestern side hosts a large patio which can be accessed out the bedroom door. A 6-person hot tub and grand, outdoor fireplace await your arrival on this side and you can sit in the hot tub and marvel at the valley and canyon views, watch the sun rise and set, or count the shooting stars at night.

Talavera-tile adorns the kitchen cupboards and kitchen island. Brick-paved flooring with RADIANT FLOOR HEATING warm every step you take in this precious space. All NEW, stainless steel appliances await your use. Large, stackable washer and dryer is in its own closet.

The bedroom area is in the OPEN area of the entire casita but tucked away in the SouthWest side of the open space. Air-conditioning added July 2022.

A door to the SouthWest patio is off of the bedroom area making quick visits to and from the hot tub or the outdoor fireplace delightfully easy!! Pets are welcome with a pet fee. $150.00 minimum for one pet for a maximum of a week. We strongly prefer only one pet--there is no fenced in yard. Please let us know the breed of your dog when booking.

Spirit-soothing STEAM shower is stunningly slate-tiled with a glass door that encloses you in what we call the ''Enchanted Cave'' shower. Steam and dream away!

Starting supplies of wood are supplied for your use in both the indoor and outdoor fireplaces, basic start-ups of some spices, laundry and dish soap and paper products are supplied for your pleasure. Exterior camera on driveway/parking area.

Dog/Pet Fee-$150 minimum pet fee for one dog up to one week.

Everyone loves Casita Ave Maria! You will, too!

We highly recommend Travel Insurance-we don't travel without it.

Nice place but neighborhood is not people or dog friendly.
We brought our 2 year old, well behaved Boston Terrier. The house was very nice and well appointed with one king bed. The outdoor space was great with the fireplace and hot tub and nice view. The only real negative is the neighborhood is not people or pet friendly. We were not even allowed to walk down the driveway with or without our dog. So we had to drive just to get away from the property. Overall it was very nice.

wonderful place
Out of all the places that my wife and I have stayed within the Enchanted Circle, this is hands down the best, From the location of the casita, the surroundings and the overall pleasantness of our host we would not trade it for a hotel in town. We plan to stay again next year.

Great property’s
This casita was the perfect stay. From the moment I booked the owner was in perfect communication. Everything I needed she answered very quickly. The casita is as good in person as the pictures posted. The wrap around porch made it where you could sit outside anytime of the day. The hummingbirds were so fun to watch. The temperature was too warm for the spa and steamy shower so I can’t speak to those. There were so many books, art supplies, and plenty of tv if you wanted to take advantage of those. The location was great where you felt like you were the only one there, but yet only about 10 minutes to Arroyo Seco and about 15 minutes to Taos. The inside is immaculate. Clean, fully stocked, and plenty of places to sit. The bed was plenty comfortable and a really good nights rest and /or nap. I visited most of the places the owners had told me to go eat and they were right. Orlando’s ended up being my most favorite. Overall and excellent place to get away. I wish I could’ve stayed longer.

Beautiful views
The Casita lies nestled between the mountains and the Rio Grande Gorge (which is visible from the patio). It's so quiet, one can hear the hum of hummingbird wings as they relax outside. The owners have stocked the kitchen with everything you need to make your start enjoyable. Cookware, utensils, spices, even Tupperware to keep leftovers for later. The town of Taos is a short 20 minutes away and has anything you could need; good food, shopping, groceries, you make it. It was well worth 9 hours of driving to simply exist in the peace and comfort the Casita afforded.
