El Nido Lane Tesuque is a 1-bedroom casita in the quiet, upscale Tesuque Village neighborhood, El Nido Lane Tesuque is ideal for a honeymoon or other romantic getaway. Built 120 years ago, the adobe home has been impeccably restored; when you stay here, you’ll feel as if you’ve been swept away to a far-off paradise. Yet it’s within walking distance of restaurants, galleries, and shops, as well as just a 15-minute drive to downtown Santa Fe.

An adobe wall surrounds El Nido Lane Tesuque and its gorgeously landscaped courtyard, ensuring privacy and quiet. You’ll find numerous seating areas and patios where you can laze in the sun or enjoy drinks and dinner in the shade. Think of it as The Secret Garden transplanted to the Southwest!

The interior is no less dazzling, with its viga ceiling beams, wide-planked wood floors, adobe walls, shuttered windows, and in the kitchen, traditional floor and wall tiles. The furnishings of the large living room are both comfortable and elegant. You’ll love snuggling on the sofa to watch a movie on the large flat-screen TV with cable, especially in winter, when the wood-burning kiva fireplace imbues the room with a warm glow.

The kitchen/dining area is another roomy, welcoming space, with 2 tables and modern appliances, cookware, and tableware. Sure, numerous acclaimed restaurants are merely a stroll away (including the wildly popular Tesuque Village Market and El Nido). Once you see how charming this dining space is, though, you might want to eat most of your meals in. If you need to catch up on work (or want to post photos of the charming casita online), you can set up your laptop here or in the small office; El Nido Lane Tesuque has free WiFi for your convenience. And speaking of convenience, the home has its own washer and dryer as well.

The bedroom is just as restful and romantic as the rest of El Nido Lane Tesuque. The king-size 4-poster bed invites you to turn in early and sleep late. The adjacent bathroom is, like the kitchen, beautifully tiled; lingering in its tub will be a pleasure, especially after a day on the go. We’ll provide all the clean towels you could possibly need, as well as bedding; leave yours at home where they belong.
