Expolore Taos this summer! Chic duplex studio with sweeping desert views and WiFi

Tranquility and relaxation await you at Mesa Vista Studio, a classic Adobe-style duplex studio situated on sprawling, zero-scaped grounds with 360-degree desert and mountain views. Restaurants, parks, museums and galleries lie just 10 minutes away in the lively town of Taos, and the slopes of Taos Ski Valley are accessible in less than 30 minutes.

Tastefully decorated in a modern style, this studio home boasts serene spaces inside and out. The private patio features expansive views of Taos, and the full view glass door off the living and dining area opens onto a lovely patio overlooking miles of rolling sagebrush landscape. Savor your morning coffee while taking in spectacular panoramas. An outdoor gas fire pit sets the scene for cozy evenings with a glass of wine. And a gas grill allows you to enjoy a home cooked meal with the best views in Taos.

Inside, high wood-beamed ceilings and full-length picture windows allow brilliant light to flow into the dining and living room areas, while a wood fireplace and Pueblo-inspired artwork add warmth and charm. Take in expansive views from the living room’s cozy sectional sofa or one of two stylish mid-century accent chairs, or relax with the comforts of a streaming TV. A four-seat dining table lies adjacent to the gourmet kitchen, which features stone counter-tops and full size appliances.

Ideal for a couple’s retreat or family with one or two children, this studio comfortably sleeps up to two guests between a queen-sized bed, offering spectacular views of Taos Valley, and a full sleeper sofa. A modern, bathroom features a shower-over-bath, barn door and vessel sink.

With a chic, modern vibe and sweeping desert views, Mesa Vista Studio is an ideal retreat for guests looking to reconnect with nature. Make it your home base for skiing, hiking, rafting and exploring the area’s natural beauty, or simply your hideaway for relaxation and rejuvenation. Taking advantage of on-site parking, you can easily access Taos Ski Valley in less than half an hour, and the charming town of Taos in about 10 minutes.

Please be advised that this home does not have air conditioning.

AC and Maps need updated
The studio is very nice. The address didn’t take us to that specific property. Apple Maps has it located a little ways away on that road. The AC Unit didn’t cool very well, I would recommend getting a newer unit for summer rentals.

Perfect little getaway!
Everything was so simple, intentional, beautiful, clean, and cozy! We needed a little weekend getaway with some solitude and nature and this spot hit the brief perfectly. The view is amazing, we loved all the windows. Everything we needed was there plus some additions for creature comforts. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect quiet spot
Perfect spot for me (quiet, older solo straight male traveler), Original adobe structure with brick floors and custom doors and windows. Lots of windows for beautiful views. Private enough that I never felt the need to close the blinds so theviews were always unobstructed. Mountains, mess, sun rising and setting, moon rising over the mountains and lighting up the interior like daytime. Such a great place, beauty all around.

Nice Property
I enjoyed it here. I think the description and other reviews give a very accurate description. Liked the space and windows. Kitchen area is very good. Faucets in the shower were a bit tricky to get the right temperature. I will look at this property again the next time.

Taos in October
Nice little casita in a beautiful, quiet setting. We enjoyed it very much. Just a note: there is no fireplace, it is a wood stove. Also there is no dishwasher but that wasn't a problem for us.

Just Wonderful
When we arrived at the studio, it was all set up with the lights on, and fans on. Plenty of bathroom tissue paper, laundry soap, towels and very stocked kitchen for cooking. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and didn’t want to leave the bed first thing in the morning because of the beautiful views!! Very close to downtown Taos. Nice selection of small coffee shops in El Prado. Farmhouse cafe for breakfast was outstanding as well as Elevation coffee shop. The drive to Taos ski resort was breathtaking and we enjoyed just sitting up at the resort taking in the views. The studio is a wonderful place to stay for a smaller group and the management company Is very good to work with them - very accommodating.

Incredible view/location
Well, equipped property. However, the TV was actually only a computer monitor. The shower hardware needs an update.
