A Stunning Retreat in Taos

Our stay at El Monte Sagrado was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm and attentive customer service and felt welcomed as guests. One of the first things we noticed was the incredible art displayed throughout the resort. From paintings to sculptures, every piece seemed carefully chosen to reflect the beauty and culture of the area. A hidden gem of the resort is the library, which is definitely worth checking out. It’s a quiet, cozy space filled with books and comfortable seating—perfect for unwinding after a long day of exploring Taos. The library also has a pool table, chess boards, and a collection of old records that you can listen to while you relax. Our room was luxurious, featuring elegant decor, a comfortable bed, and a deep soaker tub that was perfect for relaxing. One of our favorite parts of the stay was the indoor pool area. Surrounded by lush tropical plants, it felt like stepping into another world. The hot tub was especially cozy, offering the perfect way to warm up and unwind. The entire space was beautifully designed and added an extra layer of relaxation to our trip. Overall, El Monte Sagrado exceeded our expectations. It’s a place where art, nature, and luxury come together to create an unforgettable experience. We can’t wait to return!

One of my favorite places. I discovered it 20 years ago and it is the only place I will stay when in Taos. It's unique with interesting grounds and spaces. Staff are excellent. The restaurant is great with several unique items on the menu. It's probably due for a refresh though, for instance the tv's in the rooms are ancient and didn't work.

Loved it!

Absolutely stunning property with top tier service. Was so pleasantly surprised after booking on a whim, without much research. One of the coolest places I have every stayed! Highly recommend booking one of the adobe rooms - where you can stay in your own authentic little cabin. Too cool! Plus, pool and hot tub was a blast. Wish we had more time at this place! Would recommend to all friends and family!

My wife and I were extremely dissapointed that the bar and restaraunt were closed/closing by the time we checked in. The woman at the front desk was nice. Keylock was nonfunctional to the wing where our room was located, it swung open freely which didnt make us feel very secure. In the room we were suprised by pen/marker on the nice suede curtains, as well as by the messy carpet and the doors of the wardrobes (which didnt close)... When we went to the car to find dinner - (unexpected and incononvenient that there wasnt a microwave in the room with the restaraunt closing so early!l) a security guard, possibly under the influence of illicit substances, approached the vehicle and made my wife and I uncomfortable, expressing his admiration for my vehicle while peering in the window and unconsensually touching it a bit too familiarly. I clearly stated we had a room, to which he insisted on knowing the number. This made me uncomfortable since the wing doesn't lock, and I would hope the Security would have access to a list of vehicles registered to rooms, if not a hard copy nightly.anyway. There is so much wrong with the way that man conducted himself as a representative of a 4-Star (allegedly) Hotel. I asked him to not touch my car before he finally left. Overall, my wife was dissapointed in the experience and I would never recommend it to anyone. Also, got charged after leaving for an 'ammenity fee' which was for the valet, yoga, and spa. None of which we used..
