Sunny Mellow Eco Villa is the land with a great history. The QUIET, secret Shangra-La Valley just over the ridge from Route 66 (and I-40) was the camping place for Billy the Kid and his gang! They could quickly saddle up when the posted lookout on the ridge above signaled the passing of the stagecoach! Even more stunning, it was the Tijeras Indian Pueblo Tribe's place of roaming and rest. The land now sports an Organic Vineyard, Orchard and Vegetable Garden that guests my forage from when in bloom. A Large, Clean, Secluded Redwood Yoga Deck, Ping-Pong, Horseshoes, and a Giant Swing Set, along with patios and lounges that are found over the 8 acre land, and all joined by a network of Scenic Pathways and Bridges that connect The Vineyard, The Orchard, The Garden, The Solar Array, The Swing, The Yoga Deck, Ping Pong Terrace, Horse shoe Pit...

Chi-Treehouse at Sunny Mellow Villa

Absolut empfehlenswert!

Wir sind erst nach Sonnenuntergang angereist, wurden vor Ort dann herzlichst von Greg empfangen. Er zeigte uns unsere Unterkunft und alles drum herum. Ich habe selten so eine schöne und gemütliche Outdoor Unterkunft gesehen. Man hat dort alles was man braucht. Mein persönliches Highlight war das Badezimmer, dass ein kleines Stück entfernt vom Schlafplatz lag. Eine kleine selbstgebaute Holzhütte mit Toilette, Waschbecken und nicht überdachter Dusche - eine tolle Erfahrung so duschen zu können, bei Nacht und auch Tag. Dieser Ort ist wirklich empfehlenswert, auch für ein paar Nächte länger.

The Yoga Yurta at Sunny Mellow

What a hidden little gem. My partner and I were so appreciative to have such a cozy and comfortable Yurta to rest in after a long road trip. It was raining when we arrived, but the yurt kept us completely dry while the sounds of the rain were comforting through the evening. The yurt even has an a/c unit, tv, and incredibly comfortable bed. We had coffee at our outdoor kitchen in the morning and picked some plums in the orchard. Wish we would have had more than one evening to explore all that the grounds offered, but another time!

Chi-Treehouse at Sunny Mellow Villa

We loved our stay in the Chi-treehouse! Close to fantastic hiking, Greg and Robbie have provided almost everything you’ll need to relax and commune with nature. We can’t wait to return with our daughter to further explore the area. Thank you Greg and Robbie for a warm welcome and peaceful stay.

The Yoga Yurta at Sunny Mellow

Total bliss!!

Wow! What an incredibly extraordinary experience. We were on a big birthday road trip when we came across Greg’s property and upon arrival we knew we’d found heaven. Greg opening his property to travelers is such a gift to all of us who are lucky enough to stumble upon it online. I cannot wait to visit again, don’t hesitate to book, your heart will just melt with bliss.

The Yoga Yurta at Sunny Mellow

Nice Zen Feel

Fantastic place ti stop for a night or spend a few days. Felt like a mini retreat. The layout is perfect for anyone wanting to get away from the daily hustle and reground themselves. Gregory and his wife are wonder host, and are very accommodating. Will definitely stay here again, perhaps for longer duration.
