A desert gem

This desert casita allows the ultimate desert experience. We love that it is 4 miles out of town where we enjoyed the quiet of the desert. The Southwest style of the house, comfortable beds and furniture, and thoughtful desert decor all lend to immersing ourselves in this amazing land. We thought the hot tub a bit small for four people, but enjoyed it with two or three people. Ben is a most attentive host, communicating quickly with us when we had questions. We would return to this casita in a heartbeat.

Beautiful and comfortable property - top notch! We have stayed at many vacation rentals and this one is superb in attention to detail and amenities. We love the area and hope to stay here again. I especially liked having basic pantry items. It’s really all we could wish for.

Wonderful location for relaxing in Borrego Springs

We had a wonderful time at the Anza Haus, loved the home and it was a great location for restaurants and stores in Borrego Springs, as well as for access to the huge Anza Borrego State Park. For desert lovers, there are so many amazing places to visit. The town has good restaurants and interesting art and stores - great to see privately owned businesses are the normal here! The house is clean and was spacious for the two of us, and could easily accommodate 4+. Decor is nice, loved the outdoor area with pool and spa! Everything is in good condition, comfortable and plenty of suitable space for cooking, storing things, and relaxing. Note that there is no laundry so plan accordingly. The neighborhood is quiet and pleasant. I took a couple of telescopes and had beautiful views of the night skies from the back yard.

Perfect solo getaway!

I loved it here, I will definitely be back. Next time I'll bring my own pool floats since there weren't any provided by the host, but the pool is fantastic. Excellent, remote, private, quiet, clean. AC worked great. Strong wifi. I loved the pour over coffee station, that's my favorite way to brew coffee. If you're unfamiliar with that method, I'd recommend bringing instant coffee. I'd also recommend bug spray for any outdoor time, the bugs were intense at times. The local market is small and expensive. But they have the basics. There are no major chain stores (Target, Walgreens, etc.) so plan accordingly.

Lovely house with beautiful views.

Great house with awesome views in quiet neighborhood. Location wonderful as a base to explore Anza Borrego State Park and Borrego Springs. Clean and well stocked. Cute , private pool, but a little too chilly to use in mid March due to cool nights. Owner very responsive to our questions.
