Casa Tierra · Bobby Berk's Designed Desert Estate
Welcome to Casa Tierra, exclusively managed by TRAVLR Vacation Homes!
I designed this place to feel like a real escape. 3 private acres in the Cahuilla Hills above Palm Desert, with a main Spanish-style hacienda and two separate casitas tucked into the canyon. 7 bedrooms, sleeps 18 overnight, and enough outdoor space that a group of 16 never feels on top of each other.
WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT The design. Every room was put together personally, from the furniture down to the artwork and the small ceramic details. If you' ve ever wanted to see how I think about layering texture, color, and light in a real home, this is that.
The amenities. Pool and hot tub. Sauna and cold plunge for recovery. Private pickleball court. Bocce. Two outdoor bars. A 1,800 square foot event deck overlooking the canyon, perfect for sunset dinners or morning yoga. Fire pit. Canyon stairs that climb up into the hills behind the property. A full theater room inside. Designated yoga and meditation areas across the grounds.
The location. 5 minutes to El Paseo for shopping and dinner. 15 minutes to Indian Wells. 30 minutes to the Empire Polo Fields for Coachella and Stagecoach. 40 minutes to Palm Springs and PSP airport. Just under an hour to Joshua Tree National Park.
The privacy. The property sits on 3 acres at the end of a quiet road. You'll hear birds and wind, not neighbors. Casa Tierra is established 2022 and was recently renovated top to bottom. Whether you're here for a milestone birthday, a family reunion, a wellness weekend, a wedding adjacent stay, or a creative offsite, the place was built to host all of it.

We had 17 people for a family reunion aged 72 though 10. There was plenty of things for everyone in the group to do including swimming, pickle ball, yoga, video games, bocci ball, jenga, board games, and more. The property is in a secluded location and looks exactly as shown in photos. We couldn't have found a better place. Close to town, restaurants, hiking, shopping, nothing was too far away. Very memorable stay, look forward to staying here again.

Lives up to the "Desert Oasis" and felt like a private resort.
The property is immaculate and filled with character. It feels cozy while providing room for our six-person leadership team. Everyone had their own space to retreat, and the shared spaces were perfect for gathering.
Every last detail was considered, and the lighting at night is simply gorgeous. Not mentioned yet is the pickleball court, which looks like it will be ready soon! The TVs throughout the house are Samsung Frames which allowed us to use them as shared screens for our annual planning as a group. Lastly, the large gas firepit area was the perfect gathering spot for us to relax and reflect in the evenings. Highly recommend!
