Ten Thousand Waves is inspired by the great Japanese mountain hot spring resorts. Our resort includes our legendary spa, restaurant Izanami and lodging from Houses of the Moon. Ten minutes from downtown Santa Fe, New Mexico but only minutes from the National Forest, there is nothing quite like this on the North American continent.

Here's how we keep you safe

• Sanitation: We sanitize all surfaces constantly throughout the day. We fog the entire restaurant with hydrogen peroxide daily. Our kitchen is one of the cleanest in Santa Fe.
• Ventilation:
  • We monitor the entire restaurant with carbon dioxide meters to assure that there is adequate replacement fresh air
  • There is a state-of-the-art hood system designed to replace the entire volume of air in the kitchen with outside air every 5 minutes
  • Each bathroom has a strong vent fan to the outside
• Masks: Both you and our staff will wear masks whenever you interact. You, of course, may remove your masks when you're alone with your bubble.
• Filtration: The ducted heating and cooling system utilizes MERV13 filters capable of filtering particles larger than 1 micron. The Tatami Room also has a HEPA filter capable of filtering 99% of all aerosol particles of 1 micron. The average COVID aerosol is 3 microns
• Upper Air Germicidal UltraViolet Light:
  • The main dining room has UV light fixtures irradiating the entire airspace between the beams at 11 foot height to the peak of the ceiling at 20 feet. Ceiling fans pull the air from the dining area into this 'killing zone' to destroy COVID aerosols within 16 seconds.
  • The Asahi Room and the Patio Room have UV fixtures irradiating the upper 12' of airspace
  • There are in-duct UV lamps irradiating the entire volume of air passing through the HVAC system that heats and cools the restaurant
