House Or Rental
Airbnb, VRBO, & Rentals
Taos has plenty of beautiful rentals available. If you're most interested in staying at an Airbnb or rental, we recommend you find one in the town of Taos or Ranchos de Taos and not surrounding areas, such as El Prado or the Ski Valley (TSV). Look for rentals near NM highway 68/Paseo Del Pueblo Sur in between The Stakeout and the center of town. This will keep you near all the happenings!
Flight
ABQ
The closest major airport is Albuquerque International Sunport (ABQ) and is about 2 hours and 20 minutes away from Taos. ABQ is a very reliable airport to arrive and depart from and is the only airport in the area that services all major airlines. Flying in and out of ABQ and renting a car to drive to Taos will be the most straightforward travel choice for most guests.
Travel Note
Driving from Albuquerque or Santa Fe
The drive up to Taos is a simple and beautiful route. Most of this drive is easy interstate and freeway driving. New Mexico Highway 68 is a two lane highway that runs along the striking banks of the Rio Grande. Be aware that the road is somewhat winding and hilly. Factor in additional time for slow drivers, weather, and sightseeing. From Albuquerque you will take I-25 north, then bypass the center of Santa Fe on NM-599 north to connect to US-84 north toward Espanola. In Espanola, you will continue onto NM-68 north which will take you past The Stakeout and into Taos.
