Our Retreat at a historic Lodge is located in the enchanted beauty of Taos, New Mexico. Our property has 18 bedrooms, a swimming pool and a hot tub, a labyrinth and a meditation path on 3 beautiful acres just two miles from Taos Town Square. We are located 30 min away from Taos Ski Valley and Angel Fire Resort.
We are a small family-owned and operated hotel. We want our guests and our team feel like family when they visit here. Roger and Albina own the property although they are not always physically present in Taos. Marina, Albina's mother, and her 2 brothers run the hotel. Albina's family is originally from Kazakhstan.
Our higher purpose is to help people live a happy, healthy and inspired life. Roger and Albina are yogis who at some point owned 7 yoga studios in Texas.
