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... Perfect Place and Feel The Akashic Records of Where Billy the Kid and his gang camped and the Tijeras Indians Lived! 8 Minutes to Albuquerque. 7 minutes to Cedar Crest, 20 minutes to The Infinite View off the Sandia Crest, 10 minutes to Edgewood. 50 minutes to Santa Fe.

The Yoga Yurta at Sunny Mellow
Peace and Nature Filled Night
I loved spending time at The Yoga Yurta! Gregory's property is absolutely stunning and he was a great host who met us at the yurt and explained the property layout and gave food recommendations even though we got in later than we intended to. One night here was not enough, we are already looking for reasons to go back to the area to stay a weekend at this gorgeous and peaceful place.

Chi-Treehouse at Sunny Mellow Villa
Cozy treehouse glamping!
We loved staying in the Chi- Treehouse! Greg gave us a friendly welcome on arrival and ensured we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The Tree house was tucked away and felt private while only a short distance from the car. We had the best nights sleep, staying warm and dry even though there was rain that night. In the morning we enjoyed a hot shower outside and fresh cup of coffee made in the outdoor kitchen. I highly recommend staying at Sunny Mellow Villa!

Chi-Treehouse at Sunny Mellow Villa
Sunny Mellow Eco Villa it is gorgeously cultivated with the land honored. The space feels sacred. There’s gorgeous, starry skies, beautiful, yoga, deck, and the coziest little treehouse with a soft and warm bed, perfect for the cool nights. I adored it. Greg and Robbie have thought of everything, it has all the accoutrements for glamping. The bathroom is private and outdoor shower is divine, a wonderfully warm water for the cool night or morning. I feel really grateful to have been able to explore and share the space. The garden orchard and vineyard are so carefully integrated within the permaculture of the land. It’s SO close to Albuquerque, stay at Sunny Mellow Eco Villa!

Better than a hotel!
Absolutely beautiful and clean camp grounds. The cooler keeps the temperature perfect in the yurt. Close to town but far enough away too. Host was so nice and helpful. We will be back soon.
