Relaxing La Quinta Getaway

Our family had a fantastic stay at this La Quinta home! The house was spacious, well-kept, and very comfortable, making it easy to relax and enjoy our time together. The pool area was the highlight—beautiful, clean, and with plenty of shaded spots for lounging throughout the day. The host was welcoming, responsive, and made check-in and communication effortless. We would absolutely stay here again!

Wonderful place for a getaway retreat. The condo has everything you need. And the backyard really was a nice oasis to hang out and enjoy the sun. The garage parking was too small for my large SUV, but parking in front of the garage is available so it wasn’t an issue. The gated front entrance made us feel secure as well. Overall would def recommend

Backyard Oasis

Place is awesome!!!! Pool area beautiful very quiet and peaceful. John our host was perfect always responding to questions etc… definitely would say this will always be on top our list when we come back should it be available. Just a note that the outdoor grill probably should be replaced but it operated very nicely.
