Booked estate for family (8 guests) holiday vacation for 12days. While the grounds & outdoor amenities were wonderful (tennis court, sprawling lawns & pool), the house itself is tired, in need of updating in key areas & not adequately furnished in the living areas to be comfortable for groups over 5 on extended stay. We give the grounds 5 stars. Natural Retreats 5 stars for ease of communication & the check-in/out process. But house needs improvements in wiring, several of the bathrooms & furnishings. Also note, one of the bedrooms is in a converted garage bay so to access main house you have to go through an adjoining bedroom or go outside & enter house through an exterior door. This is not mentioned in listing.

I visited this home the beginning of October and it was amazing! Between the great location and beautiful views, I had such a wonderful time. Plenty of room and a perfect set up for a large group. Beautiful views from the backyard while laying out and swimming the pool. Also had a BBQ one night and it had a perfect area to both grill and hang out with friends. Then ending each night with the hot tub was phenomenal. Just sitting while looking at the stars was the perfect way to wind down. It was all around amazing weekend and the staff at natural retreats was so friendly and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this estate to anyone is looking for an awesome getaway to Palm Springs!

Beautiful home and location. The facilities have a fair amount of deferred maintenance, but overall a great spot to vacation.

It seems so much larger than the one acre it's listed at. The property is completely fenced in by masonry walls and natural tree growth, maximum privacy! The location is perfect to enjoy a walk to center of town!

Sand Acre offered the perfect venue for the very special occasion of our 60th wedding anniversary as well as a family reunion with daughters and grandchildren. This happened to fall exactly on Thanksgiving Day.

I got married here in April 2017 and stayed there for my wedding weekend with my bridal party, and we had the time of our lives. The venue itself is just absolutely breath-taking and the Natural Retreats team is incredible.
