Sunrise Springs, Santa Fe

Recently had a chance to stay at Sunrise Springs Inn and Retreat in Santa Fe. Absolutely wonderful experience. Fifteen minutes from downtown Santa Fe.

We were able to get one of their "Casitas" for around $140/night (in January) and it was worth every penny. The Casitas are basically like fancy bungalows. The king-bed version we had was especially nice because it did not share a wall with any other unit.

It had a small private, fenced patio. Some of them come with a "Zen meditation" room. We didn't feel as though we needed that feature. The room was huge as it was with a high vaulted ceiling and a fireplace. My only wish is that the bathtub was slightly bigger.

We did not take advantage of any of the spa facilities, but there are many if that's your bag. A pleasant surprise was the amazing Blue Heron restaurant on the premises. Excellent atmosphere, service and food.

Don't let the New Agey language on the website keep you from checking out Sunrise Springs if you're not into that kind of thing. This is truly a wonderful place to stay. I highly recommend the Casita option especially if you want a slightly more private space.
