    Casa Maravilla was everything we expected, private and yet conveniently close to town. The casita was spacious for the two of us and had everything we needed for our comfort. Tara was the ultimate host, very responsive to our messages and treated us like friends. I would stay there again if we are ever in Taos in the future.

    We had a lovely, serene stay. The location could not have been better - close to everything but nestled next to a beautiful meadow where we felt very private. The house was so comfortable with many amenities provided - including some delicious scones! Communication was great throughout but never intrusive. The hot tub was a rare treat after a very long travel day. I always try to come up with at least something “negative” so future renters know it’s real, but the only negative I can think of is that we had to leave!

    The setting is wonderful and the casita has a very spacious feel in the living room and kitchen for a nice little one bedroom, but again has a great rural field, and you get a nice little view of the mountains from the hot tub and even a little alpaca sightings!

Location was absolutely perfect - peaceful surroundings, easy 15-20 min walk to restaurants/shops. Especially enjoyed the secluded, super clean hot tub (steps from bedroom door). Looking forward to booking again next time we visit Taos.

    Casa Marcella is a bit of Taos country in town! The hosts have provided a home that makes you feel you are in Taos & not any ol’ neighborhood in any city. Don’t be thrown off by the country lane you turn down as you arrive—yes, you are at the right place! What a nice spot for morning strolls! In the evenings we were greeted by deer! It was very clean & many thoughtful touches. Don’t hesitate to book here!

    I almost hesitate to review this place fearing that it will be constantly booked. It exceeded all of our expectations. We were greeted by Tara who lives nearby and shown the casa. QUIET beyond belief. Three outdoor sitting areas...shady veranda with table, and comfortable seats for reading. Spacious, airy and a perfectly stocked kitchen. Big shower, hot-tub for watching the sunset. Great walks. Only negative...we hated to leave to enjoy the glories of Taos.

    We loved our stay at Casa Maravilla! The hosts were very helpful and provided everything that we needed. Check in and check out was a breeze. The location is perfect to walk to and explore the Plaza, and yet far enough away to give a wonderful sense of privacy. The accommodations were as described and so very comfortable. We plan to make return trips to Taos and Casa Maravilla will be top of our list for a place to stay!

    We loved our two night stay at Casa Maravilla! I highly recommend this casita for travelers who are exploring the Taos area and want a clean, safe home base to relax and recharge. Homemade scones and the hot tub are perks! We opted to spend both evenings at the casita rather than go out to take advantage of the serene setting. Pizza, beverages and Netflix hit the spot after days of hiking and sight seeing in beautiful New Mexico.

    If I could give more than five stars, I would. This little house was the perfect get-away for my husband and me. The casita is beautifully done - you can tell the owner is an artist. The colors are soothing, but lively. The art is beautiful. The lay-out and decor simple, yet cozy. There's a little gas fired stove, comfy living space, a hot tub. To top it off, the owner has thought of little comforts and conveniences, like leaving milk and scones in the fridge and laundry pods in a sweet metal dish on the washer. The place feels like it's in the country, but is a short walk to the plaza in Taos. We loved our stay!

We couldn’t have had a better experience and slept so soundly than we did at this lovely property. Our hosts have given so much attention to the little details inside and out that made our stay so comfortable and memorable. The casa affords all the benefits of enjoying dark skies at night in a peaceful rural setting and a short walk (and even shorter drive!) to all the galleries, restaurants and shops in the heart of town. A true gem of a place and people in Taos-cannot recommend enough!
