This was a wonderful Studio that has everything you could want. Pool is right outside the back door. I would absolutely recommend everything about this property. I will be staying again!!!
Very good location, easy check in, very clean unit, comfortable bed, the coffee and snacks were an extra nice treat. Enjoyed the pools and breakfast on the patio. Britta was a wonderful host!
Everything about this is lovely. Britta is so kind and helpful. The condo is stunning and in the most amazing community. It was such a heavenly getaway.

Beautiful room, hardwood floors ( good for allergies), very comfortable bed.
Beautifully furnished. Has everything you need. Lovely settings and landscaping with beautiful desert mountains in the back drop. Would definitely stay here again!
Room was excellent, thoughtful touches throughout. Great location within the complex, which was beautiful. We will be booking again for our next trip to the desert.

Great little studio in a beautiful surrounding. It is nicely decorated and nicely appointed. Communication with the host was fast and easy.
Came for a girls trip and it could not have been more perfect. The casita had everything I needed. The bed was so comfortable and the snack basket was a lovely surprise! Britta, the owner is always so responsive. This is the second time I have stayed in one of her units and I will definitely be returning!
Fantastic host, fantastic property, fantastic areaMy husband and I enjoyed a wonderful getaway. We loved having access to a pool just steps outside our door. The studio space was clean, decorated beautifully, well organized, and included some nice extras like coffee pods (reusable and single use). It was comfortable and cozy! I enjoyed having morning coffee on the patio. The property is easily walkable to access other pool areas or the exercise room (which had plenty of free weights, mats, and exercise machines). The swimming pools were clean and comfortably heated. The hot tubs were warm (not hot, temps in the 90s), but this may be typical of the region (we are from a northern state and prefer 102-104 temps for a hot tub). We found a local spot to play Pickleball one morning and enjoyed hiking at Joshua Tree.The La Quinta area had several great restaurants and there were grocery stores conveniently located. We loved our first trip to the area and hope to stay at this property again!
This is the third time I've rented a casita on this property over the years, and this one was the nicest yet. It was clean and comfortable, and Britta included lots of nice extras like a bottle of wine and snacks. The location on the property was perfect - right near one of the pools, but far enough away from the center of the property where it can get a bit noisy. Would definitely stay again!
This studio was perfect for our visit to the Indian Wells Tennis Gardens for our first BNP Paribas Open. It is a lovely community with beautiful gardens and lots of pools. The location was so close to Indian Wells Tennis Gardens and there were lots of great restaurants nearby. Entry into the condo was easy via a code sent to us and the condo had a lovely patio we used for coffee in the morning and wine in the evening. Would definitely book again.

About the host
Hosted by Britta Wagner
Hi there! I am Britta - an import from Germany, but I have lived in Southern California for the past 25+ years and still loving the never ending supply of sunshine :-)
Having worked in the travel industry for most of my life, my husband Robert and I have traveled extensively, including several trips with our 2 girls. We just LOVE staying at private vacation rentals, since it's just so much for comfortable, spacious and affordable, especially for families. So in 2009 we started "Mickey's Magical Getaways" and created 4 amazing vacation rentals by Disneyland and have since hosted well over 10,000 excited Disney fans.
Why they chose this property
La Quinta has always had a special place in our hearts and is truly one of our favorite spots on this planet. Is it the air? The sky? The mountains? The palm trees? The climate? We don't know for sure, but every time we come out to visit (even if only for a few hours), we come home relaxed and recharged.
For many years we stayed at the resort next door for our anniversaries. After 2 years of looking and waiting for just the right unit, we were THRILLED to find the perfect townhouse to buy at Legacy Villas in 2017.
"One CHIC Desert Retreat - La VILLA" (VRBO #1053654) was born. I put my decade of experience in design, decorating and vacation rental management to use and really went above and beyond to create an extraordinary place that is quite different from all the others at Legacy Villas. We believe in "more is more" and love to spoil our guests who keep coming back year after year, leaving us glowing 5 star reviews.
After the challenging year of 2020, this PERFECT unit happened to come on the market:
Single story with nobody above or below? Check! Killer location directly next to our favorite satellite pool? Check! Lock off option (with our adjacent 2BR LA CASA) with separate front doors, A/Cs and water heaters? Check! Mountain views? Check! Quiet backside of the community with no traffic? Check! 2 minute walk to the start of a gorgeous walking trail that surrounds the whole community? Check!
"Honey, I found THE ONE!" We submitted our offer 2 hours after the place hit the market and had the winning bid.
After over 2 months of remodeling and redecorating, we totally reinvented the space and are so excited to share our latest "CHIC Desert Retreat - LA CASITA" with you! A PERFECT spot for any couple looking for a romantic getaway, for any single person just looking for some alone time away from it all, or for dog owners who want to take their furry friend on an adventure.
Come check it out for yourself...
What makes this property unique
P.S. We also own the 2 bedroom unit that is directly adjacent (www.vrbo.com/2428922), so if you have a larger group up to 8, we can comfortably accommodate all of you. Or if you have an even bigger group, check out our 3BR townhome that sleeps 8: www.vrbo.com/1053654
P.P.P.S. If you fall in love with the desert and are considering to purchase a place of your own, please reach out! I am also an experienced realtor and would be happy to help you.
