LQ Lic 111796 Permitted 4bdrm/3ba

***************************************
A very unique and special property - this estate is one of a handful of original Spanish Haciendas built in La Quinta during the 1930's.

Upon arrival, guests will be treated to a gated bricked courtyard, and charming plastered villa. Soothing sounds of rustling palm fronds and leaves emanate from towering, majestic palms and bountiful citrus trees, which lushly shade and perfume the grounds, providing immediate respite against the hot desert sun. The estate is walled and gated, making it a safe play haven for pets and children.

The residence boasts a colorful legacy of guests and private events and even served as the host location for the La Quinta Arts Foundation Home Tour. Beautifully maintained and cared for - this property exudes charm and artisan flavor throughout.

The property features a main house and a separate private casita. Within the main house, are two bedrooms with private baths. One bedroom is outfitted with a queen bed and two twin beds, allowing sleeping accommodations for 4, the other bedroom has a queen sized bed for two. The main house also has well appointed kitchen with breakfast bar and dining alcove, not to mention a full sized dining room should one desire a more formal eating arrangement.

The casita has a private bedroom with a queen bed, and a main living area with a queen pull out sofa. The casita has it's own full bath and kitchen. The property allows multi-generational families or couples enjoying a vacation together, to have the rare luxury of preparing meals communally, or cooking privately, keeping harmony with individual preferences and schedules.

Visitors will be equally as pleased with the beautiful pool, complete with Jacuzzi and swim up beach and colorful mosaic tabletop. The surrounding patio provides for many sunbathing options, and also gives those who prefer some shade, the ability to laze the day away in a comfortable hammock, hung amidst the mature orange trees that border the pool area. A grill master's dream awaits in a large outdoor palapa by the pool. The full outdoor kitchen boasts a gas grill, sink, bar counter with seating for six, as well as a huge covered dining area that will easily accommodate your group. Next to the stage is a large gas fire pit, made for roasting marshmallows under the starlight, or for delighting guests with warm ambient firelight while keeping any chill at bay. The lush lawn and tropical flower beds throughout the property lend a tropical oasis feeling in contrast to the surrounding bright, sunny desert.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a fireplace.

we rent this home every year and it is always perfect! Unlike so many cookie cutter homes in the area, it has charm and real decor, not just anything bought from the local hobby lobby. The backyard is amazing with a large wall for privacy, orange trees... with oranges! and a very nice pool and hot tub. Todd is always responsive when contacted with any question. Can't go wrong with this place.

Great Location Great House

We love this house! It's very comfortable, well-equipped and laid out great for a large group. The check-in is very easy. Only issues with the house were the backyard grill may need some maintenance for all burners to operate and the hot tub heater didn't work when we arrived and it took some time to figure that out. But when we got in touch with Todd, he promptly arranged for his pool person to come onsite and fix it.

Perfect stay in La Quinta Cove

We have rented this house multiple times. It is perfectly maintained, has charm well beyond the sterile Vrbo houses often offered in this area. The backyard is walled and very private with a casita and a well maintained pool, spa and outdoor covered dining area. Todd, the owner, is very responsive and friendly. Oh, and you can walk to Arnold Palmer's restaurant, Lavender Restaurant ( about 1 block ) and Old Town La Quinta. Golf Courses are all close ( 5 minutes to PGA West )

This property was better than we expected. So much character, outdoor area and yard was fantastic, all the amenities, it had plenty of everything we needed, excellent location (we walked downtown a few times, it was minutes away), it provided a perfect setting for our extended family to spend a few days together. Clean, easy, everything worked, everything well maintained, quiet atmosphere, mountain views were stunning. Our family would like to make it annual get-together at THIS property; loved it.

This home is a gem!

My husband two adult children and mother loved our stay. This Spanish home is decorated perfectly with gorgeous traditional tiles throughout. We stayed out in the Casita and it was perfect. The lot is spectacular adored with fruit trees, BBQ, fire pit and plenty of grass for the dogs to enjoy. The pool was obviously the best! The beds were extremely comfortable, the AC was amazing. We ate every meal at the house and the kitchen had everything we needed. We would love to go back and stay longer!

A true gem

This is an amazing casita and property. Everything -- from the conversation pit, to the pool and palapa bar and fire pit, to all of the incredible decorative details -- make this a special place. If you're interested in the history of La Quinta you'll particularly enjoy this historic property. Even more, Todd was very communicative and helpful throughout the process and made sure that everything was just right. A great experience here - we'd come back in a heartbeat.

Mini-resort

This house is on a lot triple the size of other lots in the neighborhood. The side yard is is accented by a lush green lawn, grapefruit trees, tangerine trees, and a relaxing hammock. It flows into the backyard with the beautiful pool and jacuzzi. The interior is artfully decorated; the pictures do not do it justice. Plenty of spaces inside and out provide nice areas to relax and enjoy the desert sunshine and serenity. The outdoor fireplace is a great way to wrap up a pleasant day at this personal resort getaway.

Historic Villa Retreat

This home is wonderful and oh so comfortable. The 1930’s villa has a sumptuous ambiance both inside and out. The furnishings and décor are so tasteful, comfortable, skillful, artistic, appropriate, and often, humorous. Everywhere you look is something to appreciate. The home is equipped in a generous way and so well maintained. The kitchen is loaded with everything anyone could want. The linens and bedding are sumptuous. Every room has a nice TV. Wi-Fi is perfect. The house, casita, and pool made for a perfect family stay with lots of space…. grandparents in the casita; two adults and two kids, in the main house. I cannot overstate how special this property is. It is so much more than a place to stay. It is an experience.
