I’m a reader and I love peace and quiet, an intimate space to enjoy, this home provided plenty of both. Every corner of this house and grounds are either fun or interesting. For entertainment, you can walk to El Paseo or go to the neighborhood zoo. The home had its own zoo, wildlife and cute statuary through out the property. It is well equipped with every accommodation we could think of. If we had a question it was just a quick call = zero stress. Our own piece of Paradise and our new desert home that we will book every year forward! ##### JR From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dale 30 Nov 2025 #### The best ever! This is NOT your typical vacation home! There is so much fun going on with so with so much personality that we never got bored. We encountered over 20 life size animals inside and out, from a baby elephant running down the path to the pool, squealing with delight...to a beautiful grasshopper enjoying the pink cake on the kitchen counter! Piano, old church pump organ, movies, books and much more when we weren't in the pool or spa, or sitting under the stars down by the glass/rock fireplace. And that's all on a huge private property with a terraced backyard with views in every direction with plenty of citrus trees and a creek and waterfalls! When we stay there next year, we're likely going to rent a golf cart...as they are street legal in Palm Desert! Everything is so close, we'll most likely never need the car the whole month! ##### Dale From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel F. 1 Jan 2026 #### Beyond Perfect!! We are absolutely in love with this GEM! We would give it TEN STARS if they would let us! Thirty days went by so quickly and we hardly EVER left the house! Fun, exciting and bright! There was never a dull moment. As a musician I was delighted to find an electric keyboard with synthesizer/earphones that replicates a 9 foot Steinway. It even played for us non-stop for all our inside dinners, though most of our meals were outside under the huge covered patio. Incredible views with the sounds of the river and waterfalls flowing from the spa to the pool. So many birds to watch! I also love to cook and dang if I couldn't find one thing missing! That's never happened before!! This property's personality comes through loud and clear: It loves people and animals!! ##### Daniel F. ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Kimpton Alton Fisherman's Wharf by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Francisco-Hotels-Kimpton-Alton-Hotel-Fishermans-Wharf.h1047.Hotel-Information) > - [Corque Hotel, Solvang, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Barbara-Hotels-Hotel-Corque.h67460.Hotel-Information) > - [The Viv Hotel, Anaheim, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Anaheim-Hotels-The-Viv-Hotel.h50907370.Hotel-Information) > - [Lemon Tree Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Barbara-Hotels-Lemon-Tree-Inn.h966170.Hotel-Information) > - [Beacon Grand, A Union Square Hotel ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Francisco-Hotels-Sir-Francis-Drake-Hotel.h15254.Hotel-Information) > - [CCBC Resort Hotel - A Gay Men's Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-CCBC-Resort-Hotel-A-Gay-Mens-Resort.h1654482.Hotel-Information) > - [Bide-A-Wee Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monterey-Hotels-Bide-A-Wee-Inn.h3520260.Hotel-Information) > - [Hyatt Vacation Club at The Welk, San Diego Area](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Escondido-Hotels-Hyatt-Vacation-Club-At-The-Welk.h59916.Hotel-Information) > - [The London West Hollywood at Beverly Hills](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-The-London-West-Hollywood-At-Beverly-Hills.h21097.Hotel-Information) > - [Magic Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Magic-Castle-Hotel.h27297.Hotel-Information) > - [The Prospect Hollywood](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-The-Whitley-Hollywood.h42644328.Hotel-Information) > - [Casa Loma Beach Hotel (formerly The Inn at Laguna Beach)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Laguna-Beach-Hotels-Inn-At-Laguna-Beach.h7446.Hotel-Information) > - [The Pierside Santa Monica](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-The-Pierside-Santa-Monica.h2094.Hotel-Information) > - [The Beverly Hills Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-The-Beverly-Hills-Hotel-Dorchester-Collection.h12057.Hotel-Information) > - [Hyatt Centric Delfina Santa Monica](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Hyatt-Centric-Delfina-Santa-Monica.h12942.Hotel-Information) > - [The Hoxton Downtown LA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-THE-Hoxton-Downtown-LA.h36712437.Hotel-Information) > - [Basecamp South Lake Tahoe](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Tahoe-Hotels-Basecamp-South-Lake-Tahoe.h1086847.Hotel-Information) > - [Premier Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oakland-Hotels-Premier-Inn-Suites.h98374288.Hotel-Information) > - [Pixar Place Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Anaheim-Hotels-Disneys-Paradise-Pier-Hotel.h9503.Hotel-Information) > - [The Commerce Casino & Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Hotel-Los-Angeles-Commerce-Casino.h533227.Hotel-Information) > - [Disneyland Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Anaheim-Hotels-Disneyland-Hotel.h15276.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Caza Fisherman's Wharf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Francisco-Hotels-Hotel-Caza.h38249309.Hotel-Information) > - [Palihouse West Hollywood at Beverly Hills](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Palihouse-West-Hollywood.h13072.Hotel-Information) > - [ The Hollywood Franklin Hotel near Universal Studios](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-The-Adler-A-Hollywood-Hills-Hotel.h9761.Hotel-Information) > - [Disney's Grand Californian Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Anaheim-Hotels-Disneys-Grand-Californian-Hotel-And-Spa.h692655.Hotel-Information) > - [Le Petit Pali Brentwood West Los Angeles](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Le-Petit-Pali-Brentwood.h893085.Hotel-Information) > - [Palihotel San Francisco](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Francisco-Hotels-Palihotel-San-Francisco.h49777.Hotel-Information) > - [FOUND Hotels, Santa Monica, Series by Marriott](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-FOUND-Los-Angeles-Santa-Monica.h41510539.Hotel-Information) > - [Alma San Diego Downtown, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Diego-Hotels-Alma-San-Diego-Downtown.h2133509.Hotel-Information) ---
