Serene Desert Escape-Salt Water Pool & Jacuzzi/Fire Pit/Views #067047 3bd

Lic 067047 maximum occupancy is 6. Please read the house rules and city noise ordinance as well as the full house description before booking. This beautiful Santa Fe home in the La Quinta Cove has a fully automated private salt water pool & jacuzzi and a tranquil fire pit to sit around and take in the majestic panoramic mountain views. We are conveniently located close to Old Town La Quinta, shopping, restaurants and eateries, world renowned golf courses, hiking and biking trails, Coachella Fest, Stagecoach, the polo grounds and the Indian Wells Tennis Garden. The perfect relaxing getaway to create memories that will last a lifetime.

Please note La Quinta quiet hours are 10pm to 8am and no music is permitted outside at any point in order to respect the neighbors and residents. We know you are on vacation and here to have fun but we need the fun taken inside by 10pm please. This will ensure we can continue to provide this tranquil desert vacation experience long in to the future. Please note all fines incurred due to noise violations are 100% the responsibility of the guest.


We’ve made the entire house accessible for guests except for one owners closet and one owners cabinet. There’s a smart garage door opener, keyless Schlage locking system, and we have the alarm accessible on our cell phones to make check in a breeze. We have cohosts just down the street to help with anything that may come up. In addition to complimentary high-speed wifi throughout the house, there are large Smart TVs in every bedroom (55 inch) and the living room (58 inch). Spectrum Live TV (with Showtime and HBO), Netflix and Apple TV (log into your iTunes account) will give you access to the latest tv shows and movies. There are three bedrooms with high quality linens and extra snuggly Barefoot Dreams blankets & robes for those chilly desert nights. The master Cal King and queen bedroom beds are both high quality Sealy plush mattresses for that perfect deep vacation sleep. We have an additional air bed we haven’t listed as an extra bed but it’s on the premises and available for use. There are two full bathrooms with all of the amenities, extra towels and black make-up washcloths to make laundry a breeze (a personal favorite of mine). The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to make your stay as convenient as possible right down to the electric salt and pepper grinders and condiments stocked in the fridge. There are pool loungers to relax in (pool towels available for your use), a BBQ gas grill complete with outdoor patio table and chairs and awning with a misting system to stay cool in the shade while enjoying those outdoor meals and taking in the beautiful panoramic desert mountain views and exquisite sunsets. Our favorite things to do are watch the sun go down behind the mountains while enjoying a cold beverage in front of the fire pit, have a jacuzzi and then sit in the relaxing full-body massage chair in the master bedroom (we run a spa are huge supporters of taking good care of your body) and then snuggle into bed for some of the best sleep we’ve ever had. This is our vacation home and we’ve tastefully decorated with things we love. We look forward to your visit!


The La Quinta Cove offers numerous hiking and biking trails with spectacular views if you're a nature lover. They are conveniently located very close to the house as is Old Town La Quinta where you'll find shops, restaurants, eateries, a brewery and much more! The Farmer's Market (produce, herbs, fresh flowers, baked goods and live music) and Artist's Market on Main St. (original art from over 80 artists) are Sunday mornings 8am-12:30pm at La Quinta Old Town during the months of Oct-Apr which we absolutely love going to.

Golf is by far the biggest year round attraction and you are never more than minutes away from the 120 stunning golf courses throughout the valley. The world famous Desert Classic Golf Tournament is held close by every year in January in La Quinta.

March and April hold some of the largest events in the area from the tennis tournaments at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden to the Coachella and Stagecoach music festivals. The music festivals are some of the largest in the world and we're right next door to the Indio Polo Fields where they are held.

There is a movie theatre, fitness centers, grocery stores and all types of restaurants close by in La Quinta and much more available throughout the valley. Palm Desert is right next door if you'd like to visit El Paseo Rd (fondly referred to as The Rodeo Drive of the desert). There's everything at your fingertips throughout the desert cities of Palm Springs, Rancho Mirage, Palm Desert and La Quinta.

Outdoor activities include water parks, atv adventures, baloon rides, the Palm Desert Living Desert, polo matches and the multiple hikes at the top of the Palm Springs Tram. Another very cool thing to check out is the Palm Springs Air Museum. We also really enjoy spending a day at the endless stores that compose the Cabazon Outlet Mall. Morongo Casino is right next door for lunch and a little fun!

If you enjoy gambling and nightlife there are multiple casinos close by with concerts and events on a regular basis. There's also a very cool pool bar scene throughout the valley at multiple hotels with hip DJs, cocktails, live entertainment, and energetic dance floors.

Lastly, one of our favorite areas that's very dear to our heart is Desert Hot Springs due to it's magical healing hot springs water. We love spending the day soaking in the hot springs and enjoying treatments and lunch at the Two Bunch Palms spa. If you'd like additional details on places to soak please let us know. We are holistic spa owners and have a lot of contacts in the area as well as a hot springs well of our own and love to share our love of hot springs.

Lets not forget Joshua Tree. It's uniqueness is second to none. From the hiking to the funky town to the world famous Joshua Trees themselves we both feel it's a must see in the area.

We have security cameras on the rear patio for rear entry door security and Ring doorbells on the front entry doors as an additional safety feature.. Noise sensors per the City of La Quinta are encouraged to have a short term rental permit and are present.

Enjoy!

Relaxing weekend
The host was very accommodating. We had an issue and she got back to us immediately and fixed the problem. The communication throughout our stay was excellent. The house was clean and the pool was nice. We had a relaxing weekend with my girlfriend and her kids enjoying the La Quinta sun and scenery. I'd definitely stay again.

Great Stay
We really enjoyed our time at this home. 4 of us were attending Stagecoach and the location was great for the shuttle. There were a few hiccups with the check-in process but Kirsten was quick to respond and got things figured out for us. The kitchen had everything we needed and the pool was a huge hit! The Keurig was stocked with k-cups to use, the spice rack had just about everything, except garlic powder which we found ourselves needing a few times lol! The appliances seemed brand new. The two queen bedrooms were great. The master bedroom gets VERY bright in the morning and it was hard to sleep past 6am with the sun streaming in. Some type of thicker curtain would have been amazing but we can understand why you wouldn't want to block the view of the mountains out that window! Overall it was a wonderful stay. Thanks!

A bit disappointed
The house is in desperate need of updating/refreshing. Walls were dirty, carpet has definitely seen better days, furnishing was sparse and it was a little dreary inside. The hot tub took a long time to warm up which was unfortunate as it was very loud, sounded like a truck idling outside the bedroom. Stayed at another rental the following week which was nicer in every way, like night and day, and was over $300 less.

Great House for Race Weekend
We stayed at this house during the Indian Wells 70.3 race. It was a great location with ease to and from the race headquarters. The hosts were very commutative and helpful upon arriving at the house. The house was clean and comfy, great for our stay with family and friends! The massage chair was a great bonus!!

Amazing property. Perfect for a romantic getaway.
Everything about the property was awesome! My girlfriend and I had a great time on our weekend getaway. The pool and hot tub were great, as was the fireplace in the living room and the fire pit outside. The hosts thought of every small detail that you might need for a nice quiet vacation. Check in was a breeze and communication with owners was smooth. We will definitely book this property again on a different occasion.

We needed the amenities of home for our 8 year old autistic son but it needed to be special enough to feel like a vacation for our other kiddos. Mission Accomplished! We loved everything about our stay and we cannot wait to come back again. Thank you Kirsten for your hospitality, amazing communication and gorgeous home.

We so enjoyed our time at this comfortable home, in a quiet neighborhood. The kitchen was well equipped and the hot tub, a delight at the end of our days. The pool was too cold for our use in March, so chose to have it heated for limited use. Michael and Kirsten were quick to respond to any concerns and were very considerate hosts.

Ten days of comfortable rest and relaxation.
The Carranza property was very comfortable. It had everything we needed. It’s in a quiet area and we enjoyed long stretches of peaceful reading and sunning by the pool. The area offers lots of hiking and other diversions and is a short drive from services and shopping. The service staff (pool and yard maintenance and handyman service) were all friendly and helpful too. This is not a new house, however, so it has some older attributes that mean upkeep and renewal are important. There have been and continue to be upgrades of appliances and fixtures, as well as landscape features under this management. Keep up the good work!
