If you have a large group, please send in a inquiry*** As featured on CBS's show "Staycation," “La Casa de Joy” is our magically whimsical 1-bed, 2-bath waterfront luxury villa on Lake Travis. This home has been also been featured on HGTV’s Straw with Style, Designing Texas, and was on the cover feature for Natural Home Magazine. La Casa de Joy is also the tallest straw bale home in Texas. The home is extremely architecturally unique, with 40 foot ceilings, hand-painted tiles imported from Pisa, gemstones hand-placed in the stone-flooring by Tibetan monks (no...seriously,) and hawk feathers and more gemstones throughout the straw bale foundation. You will never find another home with more intention than this one. The villa has a queen sized bed, a twin-sized pull out sofa chair, a twin daybed, and a queen-sized lux-inflatable mattress can be added as well. This home is perfect for a romantic getaway, corporate retreat, honeymoon, private retreat, or to rent as a main gathering space for your wedding/event/retreat.

Walking through the front entrance, you are struck with a gorgeous view of the entire property, gardens, & a koi pond. Enter the villa and feel the tranquil energy as you walk the soaring entry way into the downstairs main living area featured with a cornerstone fireplace, sunken level lounge, & fully equipped chef’s kitchen. Upstairs you’ll find a stunning large open concept master bedroom with queen size bed, study, master bath with dual sided fireplace, and a spiral staircase leading up to the 3rd floor meditation room & viewing tower. Open the back door to an epic, large-covered porch with a fireplace, porch-swing, and gorgeous views of the lake and sunset. “La Casa de Joy” was originally built by an artist & healer J. Long, and her creativity & intention can be felt throughout the entire property.
