Temazcal Renewal Ceremony
Every Friday 5-7pm | Fee Based
Advanced Reservations Required, Please Call 877-977-8212 to Reserve Your Spot
This sacred ceremony symbolizes going into the womb of Mother Earth to renew oneself and engage with the four elements: water, fire, earth and air. Guests experience four phases of the ceremony to symbolize the four directions, and the four stages of life.
Your guide Concha Garcia Allen or Bernard Kinlicheeny will incorporate a variety of traditions, and invite our ancestors into the ceremony to offer blessings of introspection, cleansing, gratitude, and renewal.
Puppy Patch
Open 9:30 – 11:00am & 5:00 – 6:00pm daily
Snuggling furry friends isn’t just delightful, it’s also good for you. Studies have shown that playing with animals can lower blood pressure, melt away stress and anxiety, and even help manage chronic pain.
We proudly partner with Española Humane, a local shelter, to foster rescue pups at our Puppy Patch, where we delight in watching them bring smiles to our guests. Go ahead, get attached: All the puppies brought to Ojo Santa Fe are adoptable.
The Puppy Patch is open for visits from our overnight guests only. Those not staying with us may submit an online adoption application with Española Humane to schedule an appointment to meet the puppies. Espanola Humane adoption fees apply.
Silkie Chickens
Open 12:00 – 1:00 pm daily
Silkie chickens are not your ordinary hens. In fact, these soft, fluffy, friendly and playful birds are hardly shy, and they lived a charmed life here at Ojo Santa Fe. They enjoy mingling with our guests and won’t think twice about striding right up to you to ask for more treats.
For a little bit of stress-melting animal therapy, swing by Ojo Santa Fe’s daily Chicken Chat, located in the outdoor coop next door to the Puppy Patch, to learn a bit more about Silkies and feed them fresh greens, veggies and other treats.
During our guide-led Chicken Chat, you’re welcome to pick them up and hold them, and you might be surprised when they relax and start purring like a cat while they sit on your lap.
High Desert Hiking
Open Sunrise to Sunset Daily
Ojo Santa Fe is a quiet oasis tucked amidst legendary landscapes with stunning mountain vistas that glow in the golden hours of sunrise and sunset. Just a few minutes by foot from the front door of your Casita or Garden View Room, are our on-property hiking trails offering mountain and high desert views.
Self-Guided Day Trips & Excursions
Ojo Santa Fe is the perfect basecamp for Santa Fe Plaza day trips and nearby outings. Adventurers will want to visit La Cieneguilla Petroglyphs and explore ancient Puebloan ruins, just a five-minute drive from the resort. Or saddle up at nearby Broken Saddle Riding Company.

Scheduling
Whether you’re looking to book a massage or an entire spa week, please call 877-977-8212 to discuss which treatments and enhancements are best suited to your needs.
Parking & Check In
Tranquilo. It’s the feeling you get as soon as you arrive. After you park (don’t worry—it’s free!), stroll over to the spa front desk to check in. If you’re not sure where to head, you can first stop by the main lobby for directions. Please arrive at least 30 minutes before your scheduled service to change into a robe, and enjoy a sip of water or a cup of tea. We recommend soaking before your treatment, to warm your muscles, quiet your mind, and relax your body. Of course many guests also love to soak after their spa treatment. Access to the communal soaking pools is not included with spa treatments for day guests. Day soaking passes can be purchased upon arrival from the spa desk. These passes are available on a first-come-first-serve basis.
Robes, Lockers & Towels
We provide towels and lockers to all guests receiving a spa treatment. For day use soaking guests lockers are first come first served, and robes are available for rent for $18. If you’re staying with us overnight, your room is stocked with two robes for you to use at the spa and pools. We suggest bringing a water bottle and sandals.
Your Health & Wellbeing
Your health and wellbeing are our top priorities. If you have any health concerns or conditions, or need to request special accommodations, please mention it to the reservationist whom you speak with when booking your treatments. Doing so helps ensure that the treatments you book are appropriate for any concerns or conditions you may have. Some of the things we encourage you to share when booking your spa experience include high blood pressure, heart issues, pregnancy, allergies, disability, illness or other physical ailments. When you’re here, your massage therapist or healer will go over your conditions with you before you begin your treatment.
Note that our spa is located at high altitude, and as such, we recommend guests stay extra hydrated and get plenty rest during their visit.
Face masks are no longer required, but optional, inside the spa or during your treatment. Learn more about our COVID-Safe practices.

Cancellations, as well as rescheduling requests, made within 24 hours of appointment time will be charged in full to the credit card used at the time of reservation.
