"Nice location and facilities, comfortable and quiet room. The property is beginning to show some wear and tear in terms of stucco corners, stucco wall damage, especially on the lower levels. There seemed to be a lot of staff on the grounds using their iPhones, not working that hard, yet some areas seemed unclean such as the elevators, and remained dirty during our whole 3 day stay. The workout room needs some signs to be respectful of others, including the use of cell phones. I, along with...

"Stayed here with my 2 kids. The 1 bedroom villa was superb. The kitchen had all the things necessary to cook. It even had a sponge and dish soap. The room was right across the pool which was perfect for the kids. Movies played at the pool were kid friendly too. Transportation was excellent. They give you a number to text and the shuttle picks you up right in front of your room or close enough. Walmart was about 8 min drive. There are many restaurants near by (5-10 min drive). My kids didn't want...

"My group and I were looking for a place to accommodate 22 people which can be quite hard to do. We spoke with Joe about the extra guests we would have and he was super accommodating about it! Noting also that this place is HUGE. With a group our size, there were plenty of extra beds that could be set up! The amenities were even bigger in person! The pool was huge and although my group rented this home for Coachella music festival weekend, no one wanted to get ready because we wanted to stay in...
