Our family of 12, including 3 kids under 7 and 2 adults that require wheelchairs had a wonderful stay at this property. It was as advertised, quiet, and clean. We especially liked the misters on the patio and the area by the pool along with the pizza oven. Our oldest grandchild really loved the Mario cart game. We look forward to staying there in the future.

Stayed at the Carefree Casa for our annual guys golf trip in the desert. We've done this trip for several years now and this was the best place we've ever stayed all things considered. The location/neighborhood, house layout, number of rooms, game room, pool table, pool/spa, fully stocked kitchen, etc all made for an enjoyable stay. Hosted smoothly by Edward, who provided great details in advance and during check-in, and was very responsive when we sent a message, and checkout couldn't have been easier. We would absolutely stay here again next year!

We booked Carefree Casa for my wife's 40th birthday with a big multi-family group (kids from 2 to 13), and it was perfect from start to finish. The house lives up to every photo, the kids swam morning to night, they practically moved into the garage arcade, and pizza night at the outdoor oven ended up being one of the best memories of the whole trip. The space is the real star: plenty of room for our whole group to spread out and never feel on top of each other, and the casita was a great bonus for extra privacy.What really set this stay apart was Edward. He's the most responsive, accommodating host we've ever dealt with — he answered every question quickly and clearly before we booked, helped us solve parking for our whole group, and made everything easy from day one. You can tell he genuinely cares that his guests have a great stay.The home is in a quiet, well-kept neighborhood, so it's best suited for groups that keep the evenings mellow — which suited our family crew perfectly. We'd book again without hesitation. If you're planning a family getaway or a milestone celebration done the right way, this is your house. Thank you, Edward!

About the host

Hosted by Edward Silva

Host profile image
We’re a family who loves hosting and traveling, and we design our homes around the kind of stays we look for ourselves: comfortable, well-equipped, and easy. I previously ran a hospitality-adjacent business and have stayed in more vacation rentals than I can count, so I pay attention to details—strong WiFi, good mattresses, clear instructions, and spaces that actually work for groups and families.

Carefree Casa is professionally cleaned and maintained, and we work with a local team we trust. As parents, we also think a lot about safety and practicality, which is why you’ll find things like a nursery, child-friendly options, and a removable pool fence. We’re responsive, organized, and genuinely want guests to feel like they can relax the moment they arrive.

Why they chose this property

We chose the Montage community because it balances resort-style living with a true neighborhood feel. It’s a quiet, gated area with well-kept homes, wide streets, and clear community standards, which makes it ideal for families and groups who want a peaceful place to come back to after busy days.

At the same time, you’re just minutes from the Empire Polo Grounds (Coachella and Stagecoach), Old Town La Quinta, golf courses, hiking, and great dining in La Quinta, Indian Wells, and Palm Desert. Guests can enjoy the convenience of being close to everything while still having a calm, private home base to unwind in at the end of the day.

What makes this property unique

Carefree Casa was set up to function more like a private resort than a typical vacation rental. The backyard is the centerpiece: a heated pool with waterfall spa, full outdoor kitchen with pizza oven, three fire features, outdoor TV, dining areas, and a putting green. Inside, guests have both an indoor pool table room and a full arcade/game room, so there is always something to do without leaving the property.

The layout also sets it apart. All six bedrooms feature king beds, including a private-entry casita, and the primary suite has an attached nursery for guests traveling with little ones. The home is extensively stocked—from multiple coffee options to a cocktail station and two sets of washers and dryers—so groups can settle in for longer stays. Many homes have one or two standout features; Carefree Casa is designed so every part of the property is usable, comfortable, and memorable.
