About the host
We’re Warren and Taryn, an Anglo-American couple who fell in love with Joshua Tree while honeymooning here during the pandemic. What began as a place to recharge became a dream to create our own desert retreat. Casa Del Rio was a passion project, taking two years to design and build from the ground up. Today, we're delighted to share it with guests from around the world and hope you'll experience the same sense of peace, wonder, and connection to the desert that inspired us to create it.

The place was great. It had many nice features that made it feel more like home than any other Airbnb I have been to, including anything you could possible need in the kitchen. The Nespresso machine was a favorite :) The pool was perfect and the property well-kept. Would absolutely return again in the future. Thanks Warren & Taryn!
This house was absolutely stunning! The chic décor and thoughtful design made every room feel stylish yet welcoming. Everything was incredibly well-organized, with every little detail carefully considered to make our stay effortless and enjoyable. You can tell a lot of care went into creating a space that’s both beautiful and functional. We especially appreciated the privacy of the property – it felt like our own little oasis. The beautiful pool and outdoor BBQ area were highlights of our trip! We spent hours lounging by the pool, enjoying the sun, and grilling delicious meals in the evenings. It was the perfect setup for relaxing and entertaining. The location was ideal – peaceful and private, yet close enough to everything we wanted to see and do. It truly felt like a home away from home. Our hosts were fantastic – responsive and clearly committed to making sure guests have a wonderful experience. Check-in was seamless, and everything was exactly as described (if
Fell in love with this space. We have 3 children under 4 years old and was worried on how we’d keep them entertained in the desert while keeping them safe and while making it feel like a vacation for the grown-ups. Being able to open the doors fully, alongside the pool for entertainment and the open concept was the perfect combo allowing us all to relax and enjoy ourselves. The attention to detail was blissful and added to the perfect getaway-feel. The vastness of the property gave us piece-of-mind to be able to take our little humans on a “hike” around the grounds while enjoying the picnic tables, hammocks, and wildlife on the property. I can go on and on about the house details…
We had a fabulous and restful retreat at Casa Del Rio. We stayed 3 nights and never left the property! The place is spotless, well stocked, and the beds are very comfortable. The pool and spa are in the midst of a beautiful landscape surrounded by lush desert trees with tiny yellow flowers. There are so many flowers that we found ourselves surrounded by hummingbirds. There is also a bird call I kept hearing on repeat that sounds almost like a raspy rain stick- very mesmerizing. So many birds, such great music, frequent rainbows. Casa Del Rio feels like a magical hideaway and we can't wait to return.
We just got back from spring break and loved our stay here. My husband & I brought our two kids (5 and 7) from Ohio, and this is one of our favorite Airbnbs we've ever stayed in! What made it stand out was all the little details — SPF 50, spices, coffee, laundry detergent, zip-lock bags... it was like someone already thought of everything. We just had to buy groceries. Flying in from out of state, that kind of thoughtfulness takes so much stress off and makes you feel at home. Warren was wonderful — genuinely kind, and it felt like he cared about our experience, not just the booking. The property is so private and spacious with beautiful views. The kids looked for lizards and rabbits in the yard, we hiked Joshua Tree every morning, swam in the pool during the day and ended every night in the hot tub watching the stars. We're a family that loves to explore new places, but after a tough year, this one gave us something we really needed — real peace. We're already hoping to come back. 🙏
One of the best Airbnb experiences we ever had. The home is beautiful and has everything you could possibly ask for. The kitchen is fully stocked, the beds are comfortable, and every detail feels thoughtful. The pool and hot tub were amazing, and the setting on a private 20-acre property feels peaceful and secluded while still being conveniently located. In addition the host was so kind and helpful.
My most favorite Airbnb stay ever! This place is gorgeous and the hosts thought of everything (sunblock, q-tips, pool towels, bath robes, well equipped kitchen, endless coffee brewing options, kid safe and friendly, etc..) Super clean upon arrival, everything worked perfectly and the privacy of this property was a true delight! Beautiful sunsets and star gazing. Such a nice and modern, but cozy place. Thank you for the opportunity to stay here!
I’ve stayed at a number of airbnbs in Joshua tree and nothing compares to this one! Warren has thought of every detail to ensure guests have a comfortable, relaxing stay. The beds and couches are super comfortable, all making for a restful sleep. The pool and hot tub are both so beautiful, easy to use, and super clean. They have a fabulous coffee station and everything you need in a kitchen to cook at home. My favorite part is how private the property is and how much space there is to walk around and explore. Another huge bonus is how close the property is to the park entrance! I can’t wait until I’m ready to plan another visit :)
