Bobcat Inn

It can't get more romantic than this sweet bed and breakfast, set out in the country on 10 glorious acres. The spectacular views seem to go on for miles. By day, explore walking trails and relax in the courtyard with a koi pond and waterfall. By night, gaze into Santa Fe County's deep dark skies from your room with panoramic views. Once you've checked in to this authentically restored hacienda, you’ll never want to leave.

Houses Of The Moon At Ten Thousand Waves

In the tradition of the Japanese ryokan, guests have a short walk from their rooms to the rustic spa, inspired by Japanese-style mountain hot spring resorts. The distinctive details in each of the 14 unique guest rooms and suites reflect Japanese simplicity, and many include courtyards, decks, a private Japanese garden and a kiva fireplace. Surrounded by 20 acres of piñons and junipers in high mountain wilderness, yet just ten minutes away from downtown Santa Fe, this is your choice for an easily accessible romantic vacation in an exotic destination.
