We want you to feel confident when renting a TRAVLR Vacation Home. As a result, we have enhanced some of our cleaning procedures in the interest of our Guests' and Employees' health and safety. Currently, we spend between 4-16 working hours to clean each rental property after every reservation and have enhanced our check-out cleaning procedures to pay close attention to all details, specifically disinfecting all surfaces with anti-bacterial solutions. We frequently change all HVAC filters and clean pools twice weekly to help ensure optimal cleanliness as well. Our vendors and staff are equipped with protective gear such as face masks and gloves to maintain the safety of all parties.
Close by is the famous El Paseo and Old Town La Quinta areas with excellent dining and shopping options. If you are looking to play golf, we are minutes from PGA West with three public courses to choose from; The TPC Stadium, The Greg Norman and The Jack Nicklaus Tournament.

In April comes the Coachella and Stagecoach Music Festivals just minutes down the road hosted at the famous Polo Grounds where you can also enjoy top-ranked polo matches free of charge and have a tailgate picnic with your friends at the same time!

- FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS -
WHAT TIME IS CHECK-IN AND CHECK OUT?
Check in is after 3PM local time, and check out is no later than 11AM. Early check in and late check out may be available for your reservation upon request. Please reach out for the cost and availability.
WILL I NEED TO MEET THE PROPERTY MANAGER TO GET A KEY?
All TRAVLR Vacation Homes have keyless locks. This keyless system allows entry into the vacation rental through the issue of a “code” rather than a physical key. The code changes for every reservation so it is an incredibly safe alternative. By issuing the code prior to arrival, the check-in process is much easier.
DO YOU PROVIDE DAILY CLEANING SERVICE?
TRAVLR Vacation Homes provides a departure clean on all stays. A mid-week or mid-stay clean can be provided for an additional fee.
CAN WE HAVE THE POOL HEATED?
Your reservation "resort fee" includes the cost of pool heat (up to 80-82 degrees). This fee is not included on Airbnb bookings.
WHAT IS PROVIDED WITH MY ACCOMMODATIONS?
All of our vacation rentals are furnished and have a kitchen with amenities including a microwave, coffee maker, toaster and blender. Each property is stocked with cooking and serving items including plates, bowls and utensils, as well as a can opener, corkscrew measuring spoons and more. The coffee maker takes ground coffee and we also offer a spice rack, salt and pepper.
There are bath towels, pool towels and bed linens. We also provide an initial supply of trash liners, toilet paper, hand soap and dishwasher soap. Bathrooms are stocked with shampoo, conditioner and liquid body wash. Laundry facilities are also equipped with laundry soap and dryer sheets.
CAN I SHIP A PACKAGE TO MY VACATION HOME?
We do not recommend shipping directly to the home, we do not have mailbox keys, and there are many different people with access to the home: vendors, housekeeping, Guest Services staff, etc... so we cannot be responsible for packages once delivered.
DO YOUR HOMES HAVE OUTDOOR MUSIC SYSTEMS?
Yes! The entire property both inside and out is filled with speakers that are setup in different zones so you can enjoy it wherever you are and even have different music playing in different areas. To use, simply download the Sonos app and connect to our Wi-Fi system. You can then control your music from Spotify, Apple Music and more. Due to city regulations though, the outdoor music speakers will not work between the hours of 9PM and 8AM (the indoor ones will though). Please note that bringing your own outdoor speakers is strictly forbidden unless pre-approved by management and could result in a $5000 fine from the city of Palm Desert.
DO YOU ALLOW PETS?
Our vacation rentals are pet friendly. We allow for up to two pets per property for a fee of $150 per pet.

Amazing property and customer service
Everything about this house and the property managers was amazing. They were super responsive, accommodating and super nice. It made the experience that much better.
It was the perfect spot for my bachelorette party and I will 100% be back. The house has privacy but is close to the downtown palm desert area.
The only thing that would be better is the barroom situation got a little tight at times. But there was 14 girls in one house.

Stunning and family friendly!
We absolutely enjoyed our time here. The property itself is situated on a beautiful lot that backs up to private mountains. The home is stunning inside and out with beautiful design and very comfortable living areas. Both kids and adults spent time in both beautiful pools and we will definitely be returning at some point. Jen is one of the most responsive and professional property managers we have ever dealt with. She was unbelievably responsive and so eager to communicate. This is an A+ property and organization. Highly recommend.

Plenty of Space!
We stayed at Base Camp for 4 nights and had a blast! We had at least 1 person in each room and had plenty of space, it did not feel crowded at all. I believe that Parties planning on staying there at maximum occupancy could do so and be very comfortable.
The back yard is also very spacious and the pool has plenty of chair and towels and umbrellas — it feels like you’re at a resort pool.
The kitchen has all the necessary equipment, flatware, cutlery, etc. (unlike some vacation homes) and the bedrooms have plenty of towels and soaps — all the necessities
Would definitely recommend!

Great Desert Getaway
We had a great time! Really enjoyed the beach volleyball court, that was a big highlight! The view from the jacuzzi is gorgeous, very peaceful. All mattresses were very comfortable, everyone was appreciative of that. Bathroom accessibility was a problem in the sense that only 4 of the 9 bedrooms had a bathroom connected to them. Overall, it was a great home and we had a wonderful trip.

Outstanding and gorgeous property. Beautiful and well appointed. Wonderul semi private setting. Its exactly as described and photographed.We had a great and fun time with all the outdoor pools and games. The Hammocks are a plus and so is the fire pit and the outdoor BBQ and dining area - so beautiful. Indoors well appointed with suble, calming, beautiful furnishings and great beds!
One very slight issue - need more bath/toilets for the number of bedrooms they have as the present numbers not sufficient in my experience - although I wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Family Retreat for 40th Anniversary Celebration
This is an absolutely beautiful home & property in every aspect. We loved it’s proximity to great hiking trails, secluded, quiet & beautiful views. We look forward to staying at Base Camp again. Highly recommend this property

Loved our Thanksgiving in the Desert!
Our extended family (ages 3-65) had an amazing time at the Royale home. We had plenty of space to play, relax, and feast during our Thanksgiving vacation. The home is well stocked and decorated. We liked being able to move the flexible outdoor furniture around as we needed. The property manager was very responsive to questions and someone came out to help us figure out the lights and TV. We would definitely come again!

Great Vacation Home
The house is exactly as pictured. Beautiful in every way. Check in and Check out was easy. The management was responsive to all our requests. Each room was more beautiful then then next. The views in the backyard cannot be beat. We felt very secluded. You will see some hikers off in the distance but nothing intrusive and from doing the hike you cannot see much of the house as its covered by a lot of palm trees. Our whole experience was Amazing.
One thing I would note. This is not a house of night owls. The house has VERY strict quiet hours at 9pm. The exterior speakers and lights all turn off at curfew. We received nightly texts reminding us to be inside....the fines start at $1,000K if these hours are not met. Ultimately, we just moved the party into the house at night.

Perfect for large groups who want to unplug and relax
My old college pals and I had a fantastic stay at Base Camp. The pools were wonderful, the landscaping was lovely, and all of the rooms were very comfortable. Jen, the host, was very responsive and gave very detailed check-in and check-out instructions.
We stayed for a week and only left the property to get groceries, hike on the trails, and get date shakes because we enjoyed our time "at camp" so much.
No one wanted to leave and we all agreed it was one of the best vacations we've taken in a long time.
Pro tip: there are umbrella holders in the shallow "shelf" areas of the pool!

Family fun in the desert
We had an amazing time and we did family Olympics that were a blast and we couldn't have had such a great time anywhere else. The amenities are awesome and the management and property were first class
