REAL ESTATE NEWS (Southern California) — Some AirBnB and short-term vacation rentals stand out from the crowd. One such people pleaser, called Casa Luisa, has become renown for its completeness of creature comforts and provisions in the scenic desert park tourist destination of Joshua Tree. Near shops and cafes, and just minutes away from the national park entrance, the four bedroom, two bathroom single family home first reveals itself to guests as an unassuming house denoted by a driveway, garage, fenced draped for privacy. The magic of this destination is that it grows on you minute-by-minute due to its full-featured list of amenities and conveniences. The large back yard is decked out in locally-appropriate decor that shows pride of ownership, combined with just enough whimsey to put a smile on any face, and just enough quaintness to give a feeling of ease and enjoyable abandon. | DETAILS | VIDEO
Casa Luisa is a bespoke getaway adorned with unique designs, with just enough luxuries to spoil visitors, and down-to-earth price that is affordable for many vacationing families of up to 8 persons. Billed as “the essence of an escape,” proprietor host Joel Oconer designed the home’s spaces with guests in mind, boasting amenities that he describes as “beyond comprehension,” amid artfully unique interior designs, providing spacious indoor and outdoor living. Sip coffee before a beautiful sunrise, cool off in the pool after a long day’s hike, soak blissfully in the hot tub spa, or lay in a hammock, mesmerized by the vibrance of the star-filled sky. No wonder Casa Luisa is so popular. Weeknight stays can sometimes be done on short notice, but those wanting to stay on a weekend, holiday or big event should book well in advance.
Sometimes owner Joel can be there to greet guests, when requested: “It’s always a pleasure meeting guests in person and making that connection. I am glad that single guests and families alike enjoy their stays at Casa Luisa.” Joel adds, “My team and I really love to help people have enjoyable stays, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to host them.”
The stylish living room features a refined tortoise-wood coffee table and one-of-a-kind mirror, vintage furniture and a sliding glass door with mountain views. All four bedrooms and the living room have Smart TVs with streaming services. Each of the four bedrooms & two baths offers its unique blend of modernized, traditional comfort. A smart assistant Alexa device can play music of the guest’s choice. Get plenty of work done, browse the web or watch Netflix in high definition detail thanks to super fast business class internet service.
The cabana-style patio has an outdoor dining table and lounge chairs for creative conversations. Use it for relaxing, or for a peaceful yoga session. Open the outdoor drapes to take in the amazing sunsets!
The mini resort shelters visitors in a place of exquisite exclusivity. The area is noted for its forests of extremely rare yucca brevifolia joshua trees. These tall plants are said to be matched only by the biblical joshua trees of Jerusalem. The Joshua Tree area is clad with small mountains of majestic rock formations. Israel natives say that joshua trees do not really grow in Jerusalem. The trees can only survive in this unique high desert soil where the Mojave and Colorado desert intersect, with cold temperatures in winter and hot temperatures in summer. So sensitive are these plants, that they can only grow if they are physically orientated precisely in a particular north-south-east-west facing position. Apparently the special trees are even more rare than we thought — exclusively available for enjoyment around the Joshua Tree National Park area.
With 9 campgrounds, 523 campsites, 2 horse camps, 10 picnic areas, 38 picnic sites, 32 trailheads, and 191 miles of hiking trails throughout, Joshua Tree National Park provides endless hours of healthy fun in the great outdoors. The area is also home to the internationally famous annual outdoor music concert called the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. Speaking of songs, springtime brings many lovely nesting mourning doves.
The combination of the rustic desert charm and contemporary features allows for a delightful experience. The outdoor amenities show just enough wear and tear to prove they’ve been enjoyed by many. The bedrooms and bathrooms show as excellent to like new condition, with a substantial level of hotel-quality professional cleanliness and presentation. Expect to be treated with warm, friendly hospitality that has been described as “unparalleled” by guests. A full complement of games, appliances and dishes are accompanied by generous supplies of coffee, tea, snacks and water cooler to comprise an array of gracious provisions.

The owners of Casa Luisa value their local community and respect their neighbors. A noise ordinance is in effect for Yucca Valley from 10:00 pm to 8:00 am. Being in San Bernardino County, there should be “no loudspeakers outside, no shouting, no yelling, no playing of instruments and no loud talking outside between these hours.” Sound travels faster and louder in the desert.
