The unit was perfect for a weekend getaway. The staff at the front desk were very helpful. If staying in Palm Desert, I highly suggest this location compared to the other big name resorts. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained, there are pickleball courts, tennis courts and a golf course. The highlight of my trip is always the giant figure 8 swimming pool. 10/10 recommend this resort!

We rented two Villas. They were both clean, comfortable and private. Very quiet resort and lots of Amenities. Only down side was our two villas were not next to each other so the larger group was a bit split up. Great quiet and restful stay - highly recommend this resort.

I was there with my sister, and we were very happy staying at this property. The room was clean and comfortable will stay again roomy and convenient with kitchen and all the amenities. As for staff front desk clerks were nice we really didn't need anything to get to know them how helpful they are but they were nice to sign us in and give us the keys. As for bar we didn't see any activities in that area it was closed all the time we were there. The pool has duck poop we didn't get in.

Great location close to El Paseo. Much quieter than any of the other larger resorts. Room a little dated but spotless and well appointed with kitchenwares. Loved the little patio area and easy pool access. If you play tennis or pickleball there are a ton of courts and even a little pro shop. Only downside was that the bar/cafe were closed for renovations and this was not made clear on booking or checking in. Note that most of the rooms are private owned. There is no room or maid service.
