Great stay

We loved the location - quiet but easy access to town and the park, great view, comfortable bed and indoor and outdoor spaces. Hosts were very responsive and we had everything we needed for a week of days spent hiking and mostly eating in. A few things could use some maintenance, but nothing that detracted from our stay.

This was such a lovely home! The host went above and beyond with all of the extra amenities. This home worked really well for our family traveling with a 2-year-old and 10-month-old. You also can’t beat the location-only 3 minutes from the NP visitor center.

We had a wonderful time at Linda’s property! It was our first time visiting a national park. The house’s proximity to the park made it easy to get in and out quickly. We traveled with our 2yo son, so we spent just a couple hours in the park each day and the rest of the time enjoying the house. There was plenty of space for him in the living room to play safely and even blocks in the TV cabinet for him to use! The back yard was spacious and fun for my 2yo to explore. Overall a relaxing family trip.

Amazing location and home

Perfect home for a Joshua Tree getaway. I stayed with a friend to go hiking for a few days. The home was an oasis to relax and clean up after a long day on trail. It is perfectly located close to town (a few minutes driving) where you go for restaurants and shops.

Perfect Spot in Joshua Tree

Casa Tomas is a wonderful place to stay during a visit to Joshua Tree National Park. The property is very clean and comfortable. It provides a home-like and relaxing atmosphere to enjoy after a day of hiking and rock-climbing. The grill, the fire pit, and the backyard provide a delightful area to unwind. We hope to return.

Perfect home in Joshua Tree

The home was just as pictured and described in the listing. It was nicely decorated, had a well-stocked kitchen and comfortable bedrooms, with a beautiful view from the backyard. It is conveniently located near the western entrance to Joshua Tree National Park and the shops and restaurants in town. Could not have asked for a more quiet, relaxing place to spend a few days while exploring Joshua Tree.

Excellent location to explore and enjoy Joshua Tree! Just a few minutes drive to the park entrance. House was clean and just as described, nicely decorated. Neighborhood was quiet. The only very minor thing, it would have been nice to have more than 2 towels and washcloths so we didn’t have to do a load of laundry each day. Would stay here again if we find ourselves in the area.

Wonderful stay!

We thoroughly our stay at Casa Tomas. The location was perfect; located very close to the West Entrance of the park and the main street in Joshua Tree. The view from the backyard is great! There were lots of nice extra touches in the kitchen such as a variety of snacks and coffee/tea. The bed was extremely comfortable. The house was very clean. The host was also responsive any time we needed to contact her. We would definitely recommend Casa Tomas to others wanting to spend time in Joshua Tree!
