Please note, while Casita East has lots to offer, this is NOT a party house.

The home is in a wonderful neighborhood. Our neighbors are longtime home owners, families, professors and students. We respect their privacy and, therefore, can not allow any parties or events of any kind. We have a strict noise policy - no loud noise, outside noise or guests beyond those on the reservation after 10:00.

If any of these issues concern you, please do not book. Otherwise, we welcome all respectful and well behaved guests.

Although this is a private space, it is attached to the main home on the property and you share a common wall. You both have your own separate entrances and nothing is shared between the 2 spaces. The common wall has also been reinforced with a sound proof barrier for privacy.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchenette with a refrigerator and a microwave. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a desk and a coffee/tea maker.

Pretty good

It’s a nice enough place but missing some of the smaller touches to really make a place comfortable. Things were a little dusty. Overall would stay there again.
