We had six people for 2 nights. Enjoyed the stay very much. Perfect location. Felt like home. WiFi and TV we’re excellent for watching the World Series.

This is my second booking at this property. I loved it so much the last year I had to come back. It felt like coming home. The property is spacious, warm and welcoming, and flooded with natural light. Just far enough off the main road into the park to give a beautiful private space but close enough to Joshua Tree City and Twently Nine Palms to enjoy a lovely dining experience at the many restaurants and cafes.That being said the kitchen is well fitted with everything needed if you don't go out.

This was our second stay at Casa Tortuga and it was as good as the first. Beautiful house, beautifully decorated and comfortable. The house is nestled in the desert landscape, so you can sit on the back porch (or in the hot tub!) and observe nature. Close to the park entrance. Great place.

We were super impressed with Casa Tortuga! It was perfect for our family of 6 (2 adults, and 4 kids). The kids absolutely loved the playroom and playing on the rocks in the backyard. We enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. It was clean, well stocked, lots of towels etc. Check out was super easy as well. We will be back someday!

A lovely home in an exceptional location. It was beautifully decorated, perfectly supplied, and meticulously clean. The management company was readily available to answer any questions. There were many little touches that we appreciated: books, puzzles, lots of appliances, lots of bath linens, extra blankets, unscented laundry soap. An absolute gem!

We loved our stay at Casa Tortuga - the house is so gorgeous and we loved the desert vibes. The kids really enjoyed the games room and we enjoyed sitting in the hot tub stargazing at night. The location was the perfect bouncing off point to visit the national park and Coachella Valley. Management was friendly and responsive as well. Thanks for an unforgettable visit!

Loved the location. Dark Skies. Close to Visitor's Center and West Entrance to Park. Hot Tub under the stars. Coyote cruising by mid-morning. Clean and well equipped. Kids loved the garage play zone. minor negatives: No closet in primary bedroom; Kitchen knives are dull to the point of being dangerous. (This is a chronic problem with VRBO/AirBnB - and you can't bring your own knives on the airplane without checking bags!)

Casa Tortuga was a fantastic, comfortable place to stay for my trip to Joshua Tree. The hot tub was ready to go when we got there, and the house is located very close to the west entrance of the park. The beds were super cozy and everything was as advertised! Would highly recommend and would love to come back.

We have nothing but great things to say about our experience at this home outside of Joshua Tree National Park. Check-in was easy, the home was clean and as advertised. We all had a great time and would strongly recommend it to others.

I am pretty picky when it comes to rental homes and I thought this one was really great! The owners have style and seem to care about the home and it shows! The kitchen was well stocked, beautiful fireplaces, huge master bedroom and lovely outdoor area. Just minutes from the park entrance which is bonus!
