    Your stay

    Mornings at Desert Rey start with coffee by the pool deck as the Desert Color Lagoon comes to life just steps away. The home is designed for movement and togetherness, with large dining areas for group breakfasts, multiple gathering spaces for downtime, and plenty of room for kids, teens, and adults to settle into their own rhythm.

    Days can flow between private pool time, paddle boarding at the lagoon, resort pools, yard games, and relaxed breaks back at the house. Evenings are made for shared meals, rooftop conversations around the fire pit, ping pong, arcade games, and late-night movie or gaming sessions across the home’s three levels. With space for large groups and designer details throughout, Desert Rey is built for reunions, milestone weekends, tournament groups, and celebrations that need room to breathe.

Bougie!

Gorgeous property. We hadn't expected construction to be going on at the front of the property when we arrived however the interior was incredible. Comfortable beds, beautiful decor and property management were quick to respond to questions. We had 30 adults in our party and everyone had a place to crash at the end of the day. Thank you for a great stay!
