Dark Sky Retreat Near Santa Fe

Welcome to Fenix Azul, your next romantic getaway, friends retreat, or family adventure with stargazing in the heart of the high desert. Soak up the private views from every window and enjoy BBQing from the deck while watching the sunset, then sit back and marvel at the stars and Milky Way. If you appreciate dark skies, this is the place for you! Imagine yourself relaxing and drinking your favorite beverage after shopping Canyon Road, and hiking the spectacular trails around Santa Fe. This charming 1700 sq.ft home is tastefully designed to give you a true Santa Fe experience with old school brick floors, two inviting kiva fireplaces (flameless candles only) and traditional viga ceilings. Come and enjoy numerous furnishings collected from nearby Santa Fe that deliver a New Mexico vibe. Newly landscaped yard and heating and cooling, freshly renovated kitchen and bathroom all make this property a pleasurable vacation experience. Fenix Azul has two living areas, each with their own candlelit fireplace. There's two master bedrooms (very firm queen/medium firm king) that share a bathroom and both have a private patio. An additional hallway bathroom is next to the third bedroom (soft queen). The three beds offer versatility for sleepers. There's also two single airbeds available. This gem sits on over an acre of land with large juniper trees protecting your privacy and offering a sanctuary for wildlife. There's plenty of hiking/running trails nearby as well as bike paths that travel throughout the community. The Rails To Trails runs right through Eldorado, going from the cute little town of Lamy all the way to Santa Fe. Galisteo Basin Preserve offers great hiking and is only a short drive. It's approximately a 25 minute drive to Santa Fe Plaza and 54 minutes to Ski Santa Fe.
The kitchen is fully stocked with the necessary tools to cook your favorite meal or perhaps try a local recipe from one of our cookbooks. The kitchen was renovated in 2020 and has all new stainless steel appliances and custom cabinets.
The whole house is yours except the detached garage. There is a large circle driveway so there's parking available up to four vehicles.

Great place outside of town with privacy and great views. We enjoyed a relaxing stay and would return again. Host was very quick to respond and easy to communicate with before and during our stay. Appreciate the comfortable and sufficient accommodations for our multiple day stay. We enjoyed nearby attractions but made sure to have time to rest on site.

Beautiful house with a beautiful view. The house was decorated beautifully and so comfortable. My only suggestion is that the room next to the kitchen needs shades on the windows to keep the room cooler. But overall loved everything about the house❤️

Wonderful Retreat

The pueblo was situated in a nice, remote desert neighborhood with wonderful views of the surrounding mountains. While it was convenient to Santa Fe, it was removed enough to provide a sense of peaceful remoteness. Try the pizza place at the entrance to the neighborhood.

Took a family ski trip and enjoyed our stay. Property was well organized and very clean. Great view of the mountains from multiple rooms. About an hour drive to ski Santa Fe, but worth it to stay somewhat out of town.
