Oasis in Joshua Tree
There is so much to commend about this home. The host is awesome and very accessible but importantly he clearly loves the area and shares awesome recommendations from restaurants to local hikes and so much more. The proximity to Joshua Tree National Park can’t be beat. You might find yourself tempted to just hang back and spend your time in Casa Alturas lounging by the pool… I will recommend Casa Alturas to everyone!

Casa Altura Review
This stay was an absolute treat! The property is as described (if not better) with a great view of the Joshua Tree landscape. Cleanliness, amenities, and location were a 10/10. On top of that, the property owner was helpful to share resources of the town and sights to see. They were always responsive with questions before, during, and after the stay and periodically checked in to make sure the stay was up to our liking. Such a great experience and I will definitely be back!

Fabulous time at Casa Altura!
We spent an amazing week at Casa Altura in Joshua Tree. The house and pool were outstanding. Entrance to Coyote Hole canyon is right up the street and the main entrance to Joshua Tree is 5 minutes away. Eddie was super helpful and super responsive- we listened to all of his vinyl on the new turntable. We will definitely be staying again!
