Lakeside La Quinta by Open Air Homes - Month+ Home Summary: Unwind at Lakeside La Quinta. It may be hot, but with a pool, a spa and a lake, there’s always an opportunity to cool down when staying at Desert Azul. The newly renovated, open floor plan inside compliments the even more expansive living space outside. An outdoor dining table, fire pit, gas barbecue & abundance of couches ensures that you can do anything you normally would indoors while outside, with the added perk of being able to watch boats cruise along the blue waters of Lake La Quinta. The Space: Located in a guard-gated community, this recently redone home checks all the boxes for an unforgettable desert vacation. Inside you will be greeted by a sizable gourmet kitchen with a full wet bar that features a window to the backyard so you can pass margaritas to your friends and family while they lounge by the pool. A family room with a brand new pool table, flat-screen TVs in every room, a separate formal dining area, and an indoor fireplace means it will never be challenging to partake in group activities. But if you need a retreat, there’s always the spacious master bedroom with a full walk-in closet and jacuzzi bathtub. Outside you’ll find ample room to stretch out, layout, and hang out. Beyond the stacked rock jacuzzi that spills over into the pool, the outdoor living space boasts unobstructed views of the mountains that border the Coachella Valley and Lake La Quinta, a man-made water oasis in the middle of the California desert. The home features its own lake access. Enjoy a late-night dip in the jacuzzi followed by s’mores around the outdoor fire pit or a movie night inside. The beauty of Desert Azul is the freedom it allows for you to do so much while staying so close to home.
