All the staff were top notch. Donald in the stables and the whole crew were first rate. The restaurants were great! When you go down - be sure to check out Sky City and the Jemez Trail - you'll also love Santa Fe. The hotel was five start in every way and I can't say enough about the activities coordinators, front desk staff, room service staff or concierge. Be sure to check the website for the free breakfast promotion. I would go back again and again!

Traveler rating: Bernalillo: Hyatt Regency Tamaya Resort & Spa : "Wonderful Stay" Mar 1, 2005 : A TripAdvisor Member, Colorado Spgs, Colorado Compare prices with: I can't say enough about the Hyatt Hotel and Spa. It is by far the most beautiful place my Partner and I have stayed. The service was excellent and the staff was very attentive. We are planning another trip to the Hyatt very soon. If you want a classy and relaxing time, this is the place to go! The the rooms are very beautiful and I loved everything about the Hotel. You just don't want to leave and room service is so good. Everyone from the bell boys to the desk clerks treat you like royalty everytime they see you. The room was spacious and cozy. The views are gorgeous no matter where your room is. They offer a variety of things to keep you busy from golfing to horseback riding. We didnt get a chance to take advantage of this as it was very cold, however, we will be going back this summer to enjoy all that we missed. This resort is worth every penny!!!

Traveler rating: Bernalillo: Hyatt Regency Tamaya Resort & Spa : "I'm a Hotel Snob and had a great time" Jan 11, 2005 : A TripAdvisor Member, Edgewood, New Mexico Compare prices with: I stayed at this hotel in: February, 2005 My ratings for this hotel are: Rooms Service Value Cleanliness Activities and gym I traveled to this hotel with: spouse/partner I recommend this hotel for: couples and romantics, honeymooners, families with small children, large groups, seniors, active/adventure travelers, tourists My visit was for: in-town getaway My husband and I went to the Tamaya for several days in celebration of our Anniversary. One night was booked through the hotel in conjunction with a New Years Eve Package, one night through Priceline, one night through Hotwire. I called in advance to request a "room type" and was happily accomodated. When we arrived we were very pleased overall with the property, the location, amenities and certainly our room. We had a beautiful view of the mountains from the East side of the property. There was a card and a box of chocolates from a local chocolatier expressing their wishes for a "Happy Anniversary." The staff bent over backwards in every way to greet us, accomodate us, ask if everything was ok, compliment us...not in an over the top way either...I wasn't ducking for cover everytime I saw one of them. In referrence to some of the other reviews here I would like to say...I am a local and thought there was a nice balance of culture without having it shoved down my throat. I have reactive airway disease and asthma and while there was indeed potpourri and candles everywhere I had absolutely no problem. Probably due to the fact that smoking is NOT allowed in any areas of the hotel or restaurants. I'll take potpourri and candles any day over cigarette smoke. The workout facilities were very nice as was the spa facility. It was obviously winter but I would tout it as a winter getaway, temps were in the 50's during the day and the one day it rained we stayed in the spa and took a nap in the afternoon. What's not a getaway about that? You can't control the weather so make the most of it anyway. I did suggest a few minor changes in the spa that could have made my stay better but they were more conveniences than anything. I dind't eat in any of the restaurants on the property but the Ballroom was absolutely beautiful for the NYE party. Way above and beyond anything else I have ever encountered. I will indeed return and would prefer this spa getaway to any that I have had in Vegas, the food though pricey was much cheaper, more in room amenities ...and NO Smoke.

Traveler rating: Bernalillo: Hyatt Regency Tamaya Resort & Spa : "Great perks, but spotty on service & cultural issues" Dec 26, 2004 : Compare prices with: My partner and I stayed here two nights, including Thanksgiving. For such a place, with so many amenities, how can one complain? Well, I can. That said, I'd still go back--for a low price. But first, some of the qualities that are worthy of a resort *. The wonderful amenities that folks have already pointed out (though we found them uniquely special for us) included the giant outdoor rock/waterfall hot tub, the extensive fitness room (with headphones hooked up to the machines to listen to multiple TVs and radio), the spa steam/sauna/hot tub and exquisite locker rooms, and the outdoor grounds along the Rio Grande and the Sandia mountains in the near distance. As many people prior have pointed out, the staff will go the extra mile to help you (though they may need some prodding -- see below), as the concierge did in helping us find a vegetarian-friendly restaurant on Thanksgiving. My complaints: I called up nearly a week ahead of time asking for 'special' requests (like a non-smoking room and a mountain view on an upper floor). The over-the-phone staff were kind and honest and assured me my requests would be honored because it was such a relatively slow time of year. Yet, what I was not impressed with was when I checked in at the front desk, the staffer had trouble finding my reservation for both nights and then after noting and affirming my 'special' requests my partner and I were given a lower-floor room with a view of the inner courtyard main door. When I returned to the front desk to ask for another room, a different staffer (new, in training), initially had trouble honoring my request. A manager stepped in, listened to my requests and apparently over-rode the system. Thirty minutes after checking into the new room I was nicely called and asked if the room was satisfactory. Kudos. Next jeer. On the Hyatt's website, I found that the hotel usually offered several cultural activities. So, nearly a week ahead of my reservation, I called and spoke with Ben, the concierge. He was helpful in telling me that practically nothing was happening the days I was there except the guided nature hike in the bosque. Surprise, surprise! When my partner and I arrived, we found a laundry list of activities planned during our stay. I asked the front desk staff about each activity and asked about making reservations; they assured me I could show up for each without a reservation. After checking into our room, we took a stroll around the complex, ending at the in-house concierge, querying this staffer about the tennis courts and bicycles. She assured us because it was a slow time of year and getting cooler, we'd have no trouble using the courts and bicycles, practically whenever we wanted (this proved accurate). However, she carefully noted, other planned activities did require reservations, such as several of the cultural activities we had just asked the front desk about. Of course, the traditional bread-making, which we’d very much wanted to participate in, was already full with folks who had reserved in advance!! That said, she encouraged us to just 'show-up' at the different activities, such as the bread-baking the next morning, without reservations. She slyly and strongly encouraged us to always consult with her about in-house functions and to not trust what the front-desk or concierge says. She added that there was a 'communication problem' in the hotel that apparently no one had interest in addressing. (Note, the in-house concierge (called 'resort reservations') is distinct from the main concierge (which handles everything external to the hotel). We did attend the bread baking the next day and, of course, one needed reservations to participate. Standing aside listening was rude, pointless, and inappropriate (and staff rightly ignored us). Last jeer. What is most unique about this resort, and was a very attractive feature for us, is that it is located on the Santa Ana Pueblo and listed as a commercial enterprise of the tribe. As folks who do our best to support indigenous peoples’ struggles for equality, sovereignty, respect, we were very glad to have a chance to support such an endeavor. However, the actual control the Pueblo has over the resort is unclear to us. Though the fact of the resort’s location is well-milked as a commodity for guests, the relationship a guest would have with actual people from the Pueblo is muted and controlled in ways that at times are quite disconcerting. One could forget the resort is located on the Santa Ana Pueblo because most of the staff one encounters are white (especially the front desk/concierge, up-front service staff). This was jarring for us (we have nothing against white people—we’re white—but we would expect in an enterprise owned by Pueblo folk to meet Pueblo folk as something other than drivers and housekeepers). Some of the spa staff were people of color. Naturally, the dancers and drummers who graciously shared from the Pueblo’s traditional dances were from the Pueblo (though strangely they were performing inside the hotel's bar, for folks who obviously had no understanding of the significance of what they were watching). There's also a small cultural museum with very limited hours (it was never open when we were there, though apparently with a phone call tours could be arranged). If one considers the immense history of the physcial and cultural genocide of the indigenous peoples of this hemisphere, then it stands to reason that this resort might want to be a bit humble with its entertainment/commercial commodification of the tribe. Sadly, compared to many similar such places in Hawaii and elsewhere in Indian Country, the Hyatt was humble. But why not require (or strongly recommend?) guests to at least watch a 30-minute video history of the tribe and in particular its relationship to European-America (which makes up the majority of the guests)? Gosh, people who stay here (especially young folks) might think 500 years of European colonialism have been just super for this tribe. You need to be patient and persistent in getting special requests met. If you're into the commodification of the 'exotic' then this place will suit you without any responsibility on your part. If you want more of a relationship with the people, their land and their history (including your participation), then you'll need to go beyond the confines of this resort.

Dec 18, 2004 : A TripAdvisor Member, Denver, CO Compare prices with: While the bed was comfy, it was difficult to sleep with the drunk people running down the hallway screaming. Room service took FOREVER (promised 30 minutes, took over an hour). Everything was incredibly expensive but was NOT worth it. We ordered room service - 3 kids meals and one adult meal was over $90. At the restaurant, I ordered crab cakes and while they were delicious, they were expensive and the size of a half-dollar at best and there were only two of them. They charged for EVERYTHING and more than the quoted price. Parking was quoted at $10 but was $15/night. We were told internet service was free, but was $12/night. When we asked the cleaning crew to come up around 11:30 am, they wrote it down and promised to come back at that time and then arrived at 2 and we had to wait out in the hallway while they finished. They did a shoddy job - leaving the trash can on top of the toilet and no new towels even though requested. There is also a smell throughout - they burn a strong insence and have potpouri everywhere so I had a migraine the entire time. The spa is fantastic, but stay elsewhere and drive in for a day at the spa. The pools are all outdoors and it's worth a trip to the hot tub even when it's nippy, but the other pools are too cold to swim in if it's cool out. If you do opt to stay at this hotel, consider stopping at the grocery on the way and stock up - they have a little fridge in the room and it's a heck of a lot cheaper (and likely tastier) than ordering from room service.

Quite simply, this is a place of such diversity that the only thing that will stop you spending the rest of your days here is an empty wallet. Museums display some of the most beautiful art works ever made; but the living, breathing Italy that operates outside museum doors has enough beauty to suffice the average visitor. Stroll down the streets of Rome, Florence, Naples or Venice, and you'll be struck by the wealth of history and culture tied up in the cobbled streets, baroque styled buildings, or beautiful chapels. Natural beauty abounds, too: gorgeous stretches of coastline; the majestic Alps sealing off the northern border; and the people, of course. Best of all, Italy is the home of pizza and pasta, so expect a culinary experience superior to any Pizza Hut meal you've ever had.

A world away from the high-rise hotel blocks and apartments that are associated with some other coastal areas of Spain, this Costa is subdued and altogether much more inviting. Mile upon mile of sandy beach stretches out along the coastline, truncated ever so often by headlands that crash out into the sea. For discerning families looking for a quiet Spanish holiday getaway, the Costa Almeria is the place to go. Beyond the beaches There are a wide variety of places to visit that are within a short drive of the Costa de Almeria coastline. Here are some of the best… Tabernas - Home to the 'Westerns' of the 1960s and 1970s, Tabernas is formed of desert-like rocky outcrops and canyons that have played host to some of the most memorable movies of this era. Clint Eastwood's A Fist Full of Dollars, A Few Dollars More and The Good, The Bad & The Ugly were filmed here, as was The Magnificent Seven. The movie sets (there are three 'wild west' towns to visit) are now tourist attractions, with live wild west shows, stagecoach rides and working saloon bars to enjoy. Calar Alto Observatory - The province of Almeria lays claim to one of the sunniest spots in Europe. On average there are over 3100 hours of sunshine to be had in the area each year. Taking advantage of the exceptionally clear skies in this part of Spain is the Calar Alto Observatory - a collection of five giant telescopes, three of which are operated by the Max-Plank Institute in Germany. Although chiefly a scientific research establishment the white telescope domes are a spectacular sight at any time of the day or on a moonlit night. It is also possible to arrange visits to one or more of the domes by appointment in the Sierra de los Filabres. Sierra Nevada Mountains - When on the Costa de Almeria you cannot fail to notice the magnificent peaks of the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the west of the province. Snow capped for some six months of the year, the Sierra Nevada Mountain range is an all-year-round paradise. During the summer and autumn, hiking is the #1 activity, the mountainside yielding a fine network of paths to explore. During the winter and spring the Sierra Nevada becomes Europe's most southerly ski resort. Granada - A short distance downslope from the Sierra Nevada mountains is the beautiful town of Granada and its most famous of attractions - the Alhambra. A palace residence of Moslem kings that dates back to the 9th century, the Alhambra is a fortress (alcazaba), palace (alcazar) and a city (medina) all rolled into one. Cabo de Gata-Nijar Natural Park - On the south-easternmost tip of Almeria is the 29,000-hectare Cabo de Gata-Nijar Natural Park. Pristine beaches, jagged cliffs, salt flats and lagoons await all who explore this natural paradise. With eagles, peregrines, cormorants and razorbills on show, this is the place to come if you enjoy wildlife.
