Casa Tierra

Bobby Berk's exclusive desert oasis, affectionately known as “Casa Tierra,” is a fiercely unique Spanish-style getaway featuring more than 5,000 square feet and modern yet cozy touches throughout. The overall design reflects the color and textures of the desert landscape and embodies both the indoor and outdoor lifestyle that Southern California is known for. It’s an ideal mountainside escape with an abundance of privacy. 

During your stay at Casa Tierra, we have curated the following for you and your guests to enjoy: 

• Unique decor and features worthy of any design-admirer’s dream, including furniture, artwork and statement pieces hand-picked by yours truly.
• Up-close inspo for guests’ own design projects with my tips and tricks showcased throughout the space.
• Full access to the property’s 5,000 square feet, from its 7 custom-designed bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms to the heated pool and hot tub to its onsite casitas and covered balconies - all of which feature modern yet cozy touches.
• A BRAND NEW private pickleball court & Event Deck overlooking the entire property
• Sprawling outdoor areas including a pool and hot tub, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the idyllic desert landscape in the most luxurious of ways.
• An abundance of privacy, quick accessibility to El Paseo, and walking and hiking paths - all just 30 minutes away from Palm Springs. 
• An opportunity to indulge in the home’s fun add-ons, such as a bocce ball court, a state of the art theater room, designated yoga and meditation areas, among others.

I couldn’t be more excited to welcome you to the captivating and recently renovated grounds of Casa Tierra – I'm confident you’ll find it as much a retreat as I do. For your stay, I’ve pulled out all the stops to make you feel at home. Come relax and enjoy!

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.

If you are looking to play golf, we are minutes from PGA West with three public courses to choose from; The TPC Stadium, The Greg Norman and The Jack Nicklaus Tournament. Enjoy some of the many world-class events like the Humana Challenge (previously the Bob Hope Classic). Or if you enjoy tennis, minutes away is the home of the BNP Paribas Open Tennis Classic at Indian Wells Top Rated Tennis Stadium, held early to mid-March, with over 300 of the top-rated tennis players in the world. In April comes the Coachella and Stagecoach Music Festivals just minutes down the road hosted at the famous Polo Grounds where you can also enjoy top-ranked polo matches free of charge and have a tailgate picnic with your friends at the same time!

LOCATION 
Known as Southern California’s most storied resort oasis, and surrounded by picturesque mountain ranges and palm trees galore, Palm Desert has long been associated with travel and adventure. Casa Tierra is the perfect location to get away from it all, while not being too far - it’s only 10 minutes from El Paseo and 15 minutes from the heart of town. Between the special touches and care I’ve poured into this home, and the natural splendor of the area, my goal is for you to leave relaxed, inspired and rejuvenated.

- FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS -

WHAT TIME IS CHECK-IN AND CHECK OUT?
Check in is after 3PM local time, and check out is no later than 11AM. Early check in and late check out may be available for your reservation upon request. Please reach out for the cost and availability. 

WILL I NEED TO MEET THE PROPERTY MANAGER TO GET A KEY?
All TRAVLR Vacation Homes have keyless locks. This keyless system allows entry into the vacation rental through the issue of a “code” rather than a physical key. The code changes for every reservation so it is an incredibly safe alternative. By issuing the code prior to arrival, the check-in process is much easier. 

DO YOU PROVIDE DAILY CLEANING SERVICE?
TRAVLR Vacation Homes provides a departure clean on all stays. A mid-week or mid-stay clean can be provided for an additional fee. 

CAN WE HAVE THE POOL HEATED?
Your reservation "resort fee" includes the cost of pool heat (up to 80-82 degrees). This fee is not included on Airbnb bookings.

WHAT IS PROVIDED WITH MY ACCOMMODATIONS?
All of our vacation rentals are furnished and have a kitchen with amenities including a microwave, coffee maker, toaster and blender. Each property is stocked with cooking and serving items including plates, bowls and utensils, as well as a can opener, corkscrew measuring spoons and more. The coffee maker takes ground coffee and we also offer a spice rack, salt and pepper. 

There are bath towels, pool towels and bed linens. We also provide an initial supply of trash liners, toilet paper, hand soap and dishwasher soap. Bathrooms are stocked with shampoo, conditioner and liquid body wash. Laundry facilities are also equipped with laundry soap and dryer sheets.

CAN I SHIP A PACKAGE TO MY VACATION HOME?
We do not recommend shipping directly to the home, we do not have mailbox keys, and there are many different people with access to the home: vendors, housekeeping, Guest Services staff, etc... so we cannot be responsible for packages once delivered. 

DO YOUR HOMES HAVE OUTDOOR MUSIC SYSTEMS?
Yes! The entire property both inside and out is filled with speakers that are setup in different zones so you can enjoy it wherever you are and even have different music playing in different areas. To use, simply download the Sonos app and connect to our Wi-Fi system. You can then control your music from Spotify, Apple Music and more. Due to city regulations though, the outdoor music speakers will not work between the hours of 9PM and 8AM (the indoor ones will though). Please note that bringing your own outdoor speakers is strictly forbidden unless pre-approved by management and could result in a $5000 fine from the city of Palm Desert. 

DO YOU ALLOW PETS?
Our vacation rentals are pet friendly. We allow for up to two pets per property for a fee of $150 per pet.
