Pet-Friendly Vacations in New Mexico

In the course of writing about some other subjects it occurred to me that something that would be a great service to everyone is exposure of hotels, Inns, and Bed and Breakfasts that allow and even welcome guests vacationing with their pets. How many times have families or couples or even people traveling alone had to look into those plaintive eyes as they shut the door of the kennel where their dog would stay on a cold bed for days, maybe even weeks, while the guilty "master or mistress" went off to a sunny beach or to the mountains for skiing? I thought about what a great idea it would be if people could bring their pets with them so they'd not be alone. Traveling with a large pet may be impractical, but bringing a mid-to small-sized dog or cat along on a vacation seems like a wonderful idea. There actually are lots of places that are accepting pets and I will give links to the directories for them at the end of this article. But I thought I'd review some just in the state of New Mexico, since that's a popular vacation spot. Surprisingly, I found several very welcoming Inns and hotels there in very popular resort areas, so take a look at what they offer in a nutshell.

The Inn at Santa Fe is a super pet-friendly Inn in one of the most popular vacation destinations in the entire Southwest. It also just happens to be located near the expressway and a premium outlet mall! How's that for a bonus? Santa Fe is so cosmopolitan these days that it's a wonderland in and of itself. Your dog will be in seventh heaven sniffing the high mountain desert air and looking around this wonderland of new scent-sations! (Sorry about that, folks). With a laundry, exercise room, complimentary continental breakfast and heated outdoor swimming pool, this Inn offers pure luxury. Rates are not advertised on the web site so pet owners need to contact them by phone to see about the rates and seasons. The proximity to ski resorts makes this a pet-friendly destination at all times of the year. Contact them by email at Email: info@InnAtSantaFe.com or call them: 505.474.9500.
