Hyatt Regency Tamaya Resort Marks 25 Years With Packages, Memory Campaign

Every perk in Hyatt Regency Tamaya's anniversary promotion is calibrated to the number 25: a $25 resort fee, a $25 daily resort credit, and 25% off services and retail at the 16,000-square-foot Tamaya Mist Spa & Salon. The Tamaya Silver Package, available under rate code TAMAYA25, covers fall stays from September 2 through December 31, 2026, and sits at the center of a year-long celebration marking the resort's silver anniversary.

The official opening at 1300 Tuyuna Trail took place January 15, 2001, when the property debuted as what was then described as the largest resort ever developed on Native American land. Its structure remains distinctive in tribal hospitality: the Santa Ana Pueblo owns the property outright while Hyatt Hotels Corporation operates it, a model that has made the resort both a cultural institution and an economic anchor for southern Sandoval County across 25 years.

"Twenty-five years is a meaningful milestone, and we're celebrating the resort's longstanding role as a place of culture, community and connection in the Santa Ana Pueblo," said Chrisie Smith, the resort's director of sales, marketing and events.

The resort also launched a "#TamayaMemories" social media campaign calling for guest recollections, with select stories spotlighted on Tamaya's channels throughout the anniversary year. The campaign targets stories connecting the property to Pueblo culture, longtime staff, and multi-generational visitors.

The property sits on 550 acres off Exit 242 on Interstate 25, roughly 30 minutes from Albuquerque International Sunport and 45 minutes from Santa Fe. Its 350 guestrooms and 23 suites are designed in Pueblo style, with locally produced paintings, Native blankets, kiva-style fireplaces and wood-beam ceilings in select rooms. The on-site Santa Ana Tribal Cultural Center "Shipapuh" operates as a museum dedicated to the history and art of Santa Ana Pueblo, alongside programming including traditional oven-bread making, Native American dancing, pottery demonstrations and hot air balloon rides over the Rio Grande bosque.

The Twin Warriors Golf Club, designed by Gary Panks and named after the two warriors who led the Tamayame to settle along the Rio Grande, hosted the PGA Professional National Championship in 2003 and 2009, and ranked among Golf Digest's Top 75 Golf Resorts in 2011.

The Santa Ana Pueblo, whose 79,000 acres span some of the most fertile Rio Grande Valley land in Sandoval County, has built tribal enterprises since the early 1980s around the Santa Ana Star Casino, two golf clubs, arts and farming operations, and a 2022 land lease to Tesla for a service and delivery center. The resort, whose name comes from the Keres word "Tamaya" meaning "The Place," remains the most visible piece of that portfolio a quarter-century in.
