About this property
Casa Tierra · Bobby Berk's Designed Desert Estate
Welcome to Casa Tierra, exclusively managed by TRAVLR Vacation Homes!
I designed this place to feel like a real escape. 3 private acres in the Cahuilla Hills above Palm Desert, with a main Spanish-style hacienda and two separate casitas tucked into the canyon. 7 bedrooms, sleeps 18 overnight, and enough outdoor space that a group of 16 never feels on top of each other.
WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT The design. Every room was put together personally, from the furniture down to the artwork and the small ceramic details. If you've ever wanted to see how I think about layering texture, color, and light in a real home, this is that.
The amenities. Pool and hot tub. Sauna and cold plunge for recovery. Private pickleball court. Bocce. Two outdoor bars. A 1,800 square foot event deck overlooking the canyon, perfect for sunset dinners or morning yoga. Fire pit. Canyon stairs that climb up into the hills behind the property. A full theater room inside. Designated yoga and meditation areas across the grounds.
The location. 5 minutes to El Paseo for shopping and dinner. 15 minutes to Indian Wells. 30 minutes to the Empire Polo Fields for Coachella and Stagecoach. 40 minutes to Palm Springs and PSP airport. Just under an hour to Joshua Tree National Park.
The privacy. The property sits on 3 acres at the end of a quiet road. You'll hear birds and wind, not neighbors. Casa Tierra is established 2022 and was recently renovate

We want you to feel confident when renting a TRAVLR Vacation Home. As a result, we have enhanced some of our cleaning procedures in the interest of our Guests' and Employees' health and safety. Currently, we spend between 4-16 working hours to clean each rental property after every reservation and have enhanced our check-out cleaning procedures to pay close attention to all details, specifically disinfecting all surfaces with anti-bacterial solutions. We frequently change all HVAC filters and clean pools twice weekly to help ensure optimal cleanliness as well. Our vendors and staff are equipped with protective gear such as face masks and gloves to maintain the safety of all parties.
