-Santa Fe 2023-
OVERVIEW
This will be the trip of a lifetime guaranteed to be a transformational experience as we will be directly in the path of totality to view the annular solar eclipse in Libra. We'll prepare ourselves for this celestial event by participating in a traditional Sweat Lodge Ceremony and celebrate our perfect view of the annular solar eclipse with a moon circle brunch. Our days will be filled with happy hour parties followed by elegant dinners flavored with the unique tastes of New Mexico. There will be yoga, a trip to the thermal water’s spa, visits to downtown
Santa Fe to walk around and shop, and a family constellations workshop.
THE SANTA FE ESTATE
This stunning and spacious 2.5 acer property located in the picturesque North Hills of Santa Fe is the perfect location for viewing the once-in-a-lifetime total solar eclipse in Libra on October 14th 2023. This gorgeous estate has 5-bedroom suites situated in private wings, each with its own comfortable living area and its own high-end bath with soaker tub, step-in shower, or both. The extraordinary architectural and design touches in the classic adobe style home with a central pool, and exquisitely landscaped grounds makes this idyllic property a world unto itself. There’s a space on this property for every moment of your visit, from intense sessions of chess, or unwinding in the games room on the lower level, which has its own pool table, relaxed seating area as well as walk-out access to the serene grounds. Then you can move on to the elegant conservatory-style living room with its striking chandeliers, beautifully crafted beams, and Louis XIV chairs, to wine and cheese enjoyed in the plush seating area in the family room accented by stunning 19th century marble columns, wet bar, and a panoramic view of the gardens and hills where you ca relax in the gazebo, just off the pool, with custom brick vaulted ceiling, built-in bancos, and its own kiva fireplace.
SURROUNDING AREA
