Casita Encantada - 4071

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Wonderfully located in the Sunrise Park neighborhood of central Palm Springs, this four-bedroom home will bring ease and casual comfort to your next desert retreat. You'll spend your vacation outside on the sunny terrace, where you can cool off in the outdoor swimming pool, barbecue each afternoon and evening, and dine with your loved ones in the shade. The interior is equally comfortable and entertaining, offering a foosball table, a poker table for evening tournaments, and four serene bedrooms - one with a king-size bed and three with a queen-size bed apiece.

WHAT'S NEARBY
Casita Encantada sits less than two miles east of downtown Palm Springs, a five-minute drive or a 30-minute stroll from countless restaurants, shops, art galleries, and theaters that await on Palm Canyon Drive. Stop by Ruth Hardy Park (one mile northwest) to practice your serve on the tennis courts, or pack your clubs for a day of golfing at one of the dozens of world-class courses in the area. If you're searching for an unforgettable view of the surrounding desert, be sure to take a ride on the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway eight miles west.

Mid Century (without the Modern)

I had read the reviews but still booked the home. However, I'm surprised VRBO (or Vacasa who manage it) want this home on their inventory. It hasn't been updated since the 70's and is in dire need of renovation. Great location though.

Property needs work. Cheap feel as if no money is put back into maintenance. Interior needs work.

Good stay. Good location. Use of garage by owner or house manager dirty and not usable. Sloppy storage and work shop. Water pressure very poor. Quality of water not good. Overall nice house served a purpose. Thankful my wife as not with me or I would have to have moved.

Palm Springs Pool Home

This is a large home with a great space for families. The outdoor area is nice and has good seating. Overall the home needs some basic maintenance and repairs. Most issues we had were resolved with the management company. We loved the central location to everything in the area. Beds were comfortable.

Needs a little bit of repair.

The beds where confertable, modern tv and cable, wifi, was great, al you need in the kitchen, the house was really clean, the pool was Nice and ckean, every two days somebody comes to clean it up, wasger wasn't working call to tell the problem, somebody came the same day to check it out, but the problem was that the water line where not connected to the valve, he made the report but no follow up after that, the problem could been fix in no time . So because of that we had to go to the laundromat. The owner really needs to fix a few things inside. Ovehall we enjoyed are stay.

House needs maintenance and updates

This house could be a great house, if some updating and maintenance were done. Spacious but so many things did not work or were broken. We would not rent this house again.

Just ok

- Outdated house. Furniture, vanity cabinets, carpet are pretty beat up. Matress is amazing in the 1st bedroom but the master bedroom has a bad matrees and super old weird shower which you have to take a 15 inch step down into. The other two matresses were just ok. Pillows were great. - Coffee maker has no kpod option. Would be nice to have simple things like salt & pepper or cooking oil/spray in the kitchen. Rooms could use a few chairs in them. + Little gated back yard for your dogs or small children is a plus. Would be nice to have a few small tables near the pool lounges. - My huge issue was the POOL heating. I paid to have to pool heated, I called to make sure all works properly. Vacasa confirmed yes. The pool started heating up around 10:45am and warmed by slightly by noon. It turned off by 8. The temperature never stayed warm but slightly cool. I spent 3h of my morning time trying to have someone fix the issue. In other rental house in PS, the heat started at 7am-2am. The water was super warm and lovely. This time it was just $ wasted. Even though around 3pm somone came by and said it was adjusted, as we were leaving the next day at 8:45am, the pool jet heat still did not start up. I would not recommend this property if a warm pool is the need for your trip.

Perfect Palm Springs getaway

This property was perfect, in a great location and amazing views of the San Jacinto mountains. Loved that the 4 bedrooms all had normal beds ( no kids room ) so worked out perfect for 4 couples.

Casa cold pool and roaches

On the surface some may think it was a good rental but our experience from the beginning was not a good one. The code for the lock box had not been changed so we had to wait for someone to come to change it. We paid to have the pool heated (heated pool was the reason for us renting this property) and the pool was 66 degrees. I’m not sure if no one had ever come to turn on the heater or the fact it was broken was the reason why we did not get this important feature. When I sat outside the first morning we quickly realized none of the furniture on the patio was cleaned and it seemed no one had been there for a while and property management company did not bother to see if the house was clean. The first night we chased a cockroach down the hall. We were able to kill it. The bathroom toilet had not been cleaned in some time. Possibly the home was cleaned after the last visitor but clearly no one check the house before we arrived to make sure it was cleaned. Vasca, the property management company did always take our calls although we’re not able to fix the pool and told me every house in the desert has cockroaches. My best advice would be to never rent this property. Our group definitely feels we paid too much for this rental.

Family Thanksgiving

This house was very comfortable and it felt clean and was perfect for what we were looking for. The first morning we were there we discovered the hot water was somehow turned off. We were able to get it back on in a short period of time, but it made us wonder if linens and dishes had been cleaned with hot water, something important during covid. When we arrived at 4:00 the afternoon before, the house cleaner was just finishing up, so we felt she should have noticed there was no hot water. That was the only criticism. We would stay there again, and everyone we dealt with was very professional and nice.

Beautiful home! Next to downtown.

We stayed here for my birthday weekend with friends and family. Such a beautiful place. The pictures did not do justice. Downtown is less than 10 minutes, easy access to local stores. Only issue is that in the middle of the night we heard an animal inside the wall scratching and trying to get out, we could not sleep that night.

Great property for a relaxing vacation.

The house had everything we needed. The rooms were all great sized, each one had a TV, and the beds were comfy. The kitchen was well-stocked although it did lack spices and oil for cooking, but there is a Ralph's nearby. The pool is spacious and the backyard has plenty of shade for those who want to stay out of the sun. We would definitely stay here again.

Good stay

The home was nice. Spacious and really clean. The pool was a good size but could have used some cleaning. The silverware that was provided was old and rusty but we brought our own so we didn't have to use them. But overall it was a good stay.
