Sierra Grande Lodge and Spa

The restaurant currently only serves a continental breakfast from 7-10AM, 7 days a week. No weekend brunch. No tapas in the evening :(

This resort is charming and rustic. I loved the hot mineral bath time that came with room reservation. We had one indoor soak and one outdoor soak during our one night stay. The breakfast was excellent with an egg taco set up with green chilis of course. Our room was impressive with a soaker tub that fit 2 and a very comfortable bed. No elevators but it's part of the charm. We did have a couple massage that was decent. Not the deep tissue we expected but the masseuses did a good job. I will be back!

Such a nice facility! Just walking in the lobby, you're surrounded by the most lovely scents that you'll find not only in the soaps and creams in your room, but also on the bedding and towels. The lotions, shampoos, etc. are available for purchase in the lobby. The hotel is older but well maintained and the staff is friendly and helpful. I regret I didn't plan far enough ahead to schedule a massage but I did enjoy the 30 minute soak in the mineral Springs that comes complimentary with a room. Also complimentary is a lovely breakfast buffet that includes eggs, bacon, green chiles (of course), and cheese to make tacos, yogurt, steel cut oats, juices and of course coffee. And fresh fruit!

Spa was wonderful! Very nice staff. Breakfast was exceptional out on patio. Accommodations were very comfortable!

The absolute most relaxing experience. Yes they are very COVID compliant, but not in a way that took away from the overall experience. Call ahead to book a reservation; even if its the same day they will try to accommodate you. We reserved a time on the same day and the had everything ready to go within an hour or so.We opted for a 30 minute soak in the Mineral Room, which may not seem like a long time but it really is! The lighting and pleasant background music really set the mood for an enjoyable experience. Then followed the soak with a 60 minute couples massage. Each massage therapist focused on different problem areas and customized the experience for each person. Although the spa offers additional amenities such as overnight stays and a onsite restaurant; that'll have to be for another day.Highly Highly Recommend this place! Definitely look forward to returning!!

Sierra Grande was our first night's lodging after arriving in New Mexico. It's a small resort in a little town.We arrived sometime around 11:30pm. Luckily they have round-the-clock staffing at the front desk. Simon was working the night shift. He was nice to talk to. He was very knowledgeable about the area, the history, etc.The Sierra Grande is only two floors. Our room was on the 2nd floor. There is no elevator so we had to carry our luggage up the stairs.We were pleasantly surprised when we opened the door to our room. It's a large room with an inset soaking tub and a separate room containing the toilet and sink. In the room was a bed, bedside tables, desk with an ice bucket, drinking glasses and a bottle filled with water. There's also a ceiling fan and an armoire containing warm robes. We paid extra for a room with a shared balcony. It was nice to sit out on the balcony in the mornings.Instead of travel sized shampoo, conditioner and body wash, they have full sized bottles to use. Included in your stay is a private 30 minute soaking time on the day of your arrival and on the day of departure. We arrived so late we missed the first soaking time. These soaking times need to be reserved ahead of time with the front desk. The next morning we had our soaking time in an indoor tub. It was so relaxing and peaceful to be in your own pool. It's a small resort so you don't hear kids nor a lot of people talking.It was so relaxing we decided at the last minute to stay another night. We reserved a morning time slot for the outdoor soaking tub. Even though the morning was a little chilly it felt wonderful to get into the hot water. For each soaking tub there's a bench, towels, a pitcher of ice water and two glasses.A continental breakfast is also provided. There was hot, scrambled eggs, diced applewood bacon, tortilla shells, shredded cheddar, Hatch green chile (of course), steel cut oatmeal, two kinds of muffins, assorted yogurts, granola, assorted juices, almond milk, regular milk, coffee, and teas. The dining room attendant was Thomas. He is a hard worker. He was always cleaning up, helping the guests, getting breakfasts ready for guests to take to their rooms, etc. He was a delight to talk to.All the staff at Sierra Grande were very nice. A special shout out to Luba and Tiffany at the front desk. They were very helpful and kind with the questions we asked. Also a thank you to Kelly in housekeeping. She was a hoot to talk to.I would definitely recommend Sierra Grande.

The entire Facility is very comfortable, and CLEAN with a lovely calm atmosphere. The outdoor soaking tub is great. The indoor pools/tubs are very nice as well. Overall, a great destination, inside as well as the outdoor grounds.Complementary breakfast was nicely presented with real eggs!!!!The downside: the bed was extremely hard, very hard and shakes with the slightest movement, it also slantes to one side of the bed. The pillows were equally as hard. However, everything was clean, which is very comforting!Ask for softer pillows if they have them.

My room was very clean and tastefully decorated. The exterior of the building and grounds are very pretty, partly due to the palm trees and giant saguaro cactus. I found the front-desk staff to be friendly and accommodating, even when I asked for coffee at an obscenely early hour. I especially enjoyed soaking in the outdoor pool while looking at the nighttime sky, and appreciated that the staff included chilled water and towels (which you won't find at other establishments in the area). During my multi-night stay, I only opted to have breakfast once, and was disappointed in the warm offerings: a tray of borderline cold, overcooked eggs and some extremely skimpy pieces of bacon. I feel I should also mention that I was deterred from booking a massage after my chance encounter with one of masseuses (long hair, wearing scrubs) as we passed in the lobby, who was supremely snobbish and acted like my presence was unwanted. Overall, though, I had a nice experience.

First class rip off! Luke warm spa with weak jets, small rooms, with appliances that either don't work or aren't even plugged in for some reason. No extra charge for the fleas in our room---But very high Ted Turner prices -- following the motto of "we charge more for less " ! This place is not worth half of what they charge and we will never return.

Me and my husband came to Elephant Butte for a mini vacation, and stayed at the Sierra Grande Lodge for three nights. We loved it so much! Especially compared to the rest of the city that is older and a little run down in areas, it is so nice and clean. I love that we get a 30 minute soak in the private hot tub every day, it was my favorite way to end the day. All the workers were very nice and helpful, and we can't wait to come back next summer and stay here again! p.s. I would recommend going to Ingo's Art Cafe that is down the street, such a cool little coffee shop and an awesome owner.
