The Hacienda del Sol is a Historic 13 room Adobe built in 1804. The original main house included the dining area for Breakfast, the Lounge, Mabels, Los Amantes, Adobe and La Sala. The original guests houses were El Pueblo and La Vista. We have two spectacular lawns scattered with lounge chairs and blankets, so our guests can take in the incredible views of the Magnificent Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Our backyard is adorned with a plethora of mature trees that cascade over our lawns, they include 200 year old Cottonwoods, Willows, Maples, Birch, local Chokeberry, and Apple Trees. Our outdoor landscape has as much history and beauty as the Hacienda itself.

Adjacent to the Taos Pueblo, a registrared UNESCO site and formally owned by one of the Native Indians, Tony Lujan and his wife Mabel Dodge Sterne Lujan an American Patron of the Arts. Mabel Dodge and Tony Lujan hosted and entertained many of their famous artists that were introduced to New Mexico at the Hacienda. The list of famous artists included D.H Lawrence, Ansel Adams, Willa Cather, Georgia O'Keeffe, Nicolai Fechin and many more…

In 1939, Tony and Mabel sold the Hacienda del Sol to their dear friend Myron Brinig, a brilliant author. Myron lived at the Hacienda for around 20 years, and continued to welcome Artists, Writers, Musicians and Thinkers. Frank Waters also lived at the Hacienda when he wrote the exquisite Taos Novel,“The Man Who Killed the Deer.”

In the 1970’s the Hacienda del Sol expanded and became a formal Bed & Breakfast, and RC Gorman was hired to personally do the tile work in several of the bathrooms. To this day, The Hacienda del Sol continues to be a place of respite for Artists, Writers, Musicians, and Thinkers who find inspiration in both its rich history and its stunning natural beauty.
