About this property

Private Cozy Casita in the Desert

Location, location, location: This beautiful upscale cozy casita with private entrance is located in a quiet neighborhood steps from El Paseo, the Westfield Mall, Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, The McCallum Theater, Civic Center Park, The River Center, and major hiking trails. Keurig with complimentary pods, wifi, cable, movie channels, and private central air. Traveling with another party, but want separate space, we have a second casita, inquire. Discounted rates offered: 760 then 808 then 7219.

We are superhosts on another hosting website that you may be familiar with. With over 100 five star reviews (and counting) on our first guest house property, we decided to build another, more exculsive and private than the first. We've also decided to expand to another hosting platform: VRBO!

Park in front of the house and enter through your completely private entrance and walkway. Watch the solar lights light up as you walk to the back of the property where you will enter your casita through french doors on your own private patio complete with table for two, trickling fountain, and flickering solar lights. Your french doors open up to reveal an elegant and cozy bedroom. Everything, including the casita itself, is brand new and built to be a private place of comfort and rest, a nest if you will because it is intimate and cozy. Kitchenette, table for two, TV, and armoire complete the small yet comfortable living space. The bathroom is separated from the main room by a door for privacy and the shower is large and spacious. There is no entrance between the main house and the casita. The heating and air unit is only for the casita and not controlled by the main house. The floor of the casita is stained concrete and is the first thing our guests notice. The flooring is designed to help us keep the place immaculate and as allergen free as possible. We also have a small office desk and chair available at your request if you need extra space for work and a standing steamer that is also available upon request. Please inquire about pets. If your pet is under 16 pounds, hypoallergenic, potty trained, and doesn't shed, we will definitely consider. Please note: There is a pet fee of $30.00 collected upon arrival if not paid through Vrbo directly.

A lovely spot!

This casita is exactly as described. I so enjoyed my three days here. The owners have thought of every detail. I could not ask for anything more. Early mornings on the patio were lovely! The neighborhood was quiet and the neighbors friendly. I highly recommend this property!

Compact but Accommodating

A bit tight for 2 people especially if the weather isn't the best. Nice outdoor area to expand space. Thoughtful touches. Family is eager to accommodate requests/concerns. They even bought a toaster oven because I asked! Great value.

I liked that it was private. The décor could be toned down a bit. Didn’t care for the humongous mirror in the room. I felt like I was being watched. Other than that the place was very clean. I would recommend this place.

Awesome Anniversary Getaway

My husband and I were so happy to have rented out this Casita. It is so cute and cozy! The patio is just romantic! Loved the waterfall and the torches that go on at night! Toasted our day on the patio. We brought our own wine and was glad the kitchen has wine glasses we can use. We have some cool IG moments on this patio. Since, the casita is so private and has its own entrance, we slept with the doors open one night to enjoy the night air and some stars. The guestbook was an awesome bonus touch added to this place. We love reading the other guests adventures and added ours to the mix. We plan to come back again in the near future for sure. Oh, the renting price is also great. We would absolutely recommend this place! Thank you Athena! 😊

It was cute and cozy, towels could be updated. It was nice to have the pathway light up at night, as we often came back late. Really liked the little water feature and seating area outside but the chairs could be more comfy. All in all a good deal.
