Fab Place for Families

Great place to stay as a family if visiting the Palm Springs area. We had a 1 bed apartment that was large, clean, comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. Great pool just outside our room, and great deli/diner on site. We stsyed when it was extremely hot but A=C worked really well.
Great view from one of 2 pools.

We had a weekend getaway to celebrate my hubby’s birthday and our wedding anniversary. Though the weather was very warm but we truly enjoyed our stay. It’s very quiet and walkable to some stores. It was a very comfy place to rest and relax. The staff that checked us in was very detailed on every thing that we can have or what we can do during our stay.

This is a lovely quiet property and an excellent value for a one bedroom unit close to all the dining and entertainment options Palm Springs offers. Pretty grounds with 2 pools and hot tubs that were never overcrowded and we enjoyed the gym and pickleball. Kind attentive staff - highly recommend
