Great place!

Lovely home; great location; private backyard. Would stay again for the house but not if it is with current property management. Hard to reach; did not respond to queries re heating the pool—The owners need to find a team that will respond to questions etc more quickly and efficiently. Can’t imagine what would have happened if we had a serious issue with this property.

Great place for 4 couples

The rooms were perfect for the 4 couples. Pool and spa were easy to use and a good size. Only downside was the landscapers decided to thatch and reseed during our stay which resulted in a lot of dirt and grass seed on the floor every time we went in and out.

Shady pool and well stocked!

We rented this home for a girls’ trip and it was wonderful. The trees in the backyard provide shade much of the day (we went in June), and there were plenty of towels and kitchen items. It was fairly close to most of the things we wanted to do in town also. Would stay here again.

Surprise Birthday/Engagement Trip

This property is truly outstanding! It's very spacious and accommodated 6 adults for a surprise birthday and engagement trip! The pool is large and the backyard is also quite spacious. Although Palm Springs has a noise ordinance that is a bit challenging, this property sits on a corner lot and so you're not completely surrounded by neighbors. I couldn't have asked for a better place to surprise my now fiancee for her birthday!

Fantastic Palm Springs Getaway!

Beautiful home very comfortable and well equipped. 8 of us enjoyed this property for a long holiday weekend and everyone was thoroughly impressed. Fantastic location too! The photos represent the property quite well but it's even better in person. We'll absolutely book Sun and Games on our next visit to Palm Springs.

Long weekend with family and friends

We had an amazing 4days at Palm Springs. Despite of the heat we could still enjoy our stay. The pool was great, the water’s temperature was just perfect and refreshing. The house is beautiful, it was clean and well equipped. The check-in process was very easy and straight-forward.

Great for families

We brought our family of 5 plus a grandma to Palm Springs. The house served our family well. Pool and hot tub were fantastic. The beds were comfortable and big. The neighborhood is only so so, Not much to walk to. There is definitely airport noise being only a mile away and you can hear the arterial street next to the master bedroom but it didn’t detract from the house. There was a clogged shower drain and VACASA sent a handyman over quickly. Overall we really liked the house and especially the backyard. Beautiful landscaping.

Christmas in Palm Springs

This home was absolutely wonderful. The pictures did not fully capture the peacefulness and serenity this property provided to our family. The floor plan was awesome and provided ample space for our family. The backyard was amazing although we didn't use the pool/jacuzzi. It was a bit cold outdoors so we opted not to partake. I definitely recommend this property to anyone who is looking for a comfortable, well-appointed home away from home.

December in Palm Springs

Really enjoyed the upgrades that have been done to this open and the open feel of the floorplan. The great room was bright and sunny with kitchen that was both functional and beautiful. The backyard pool has a waterfall that runs throughout the day creating a relaxing oasis. This house is a ten out of ten - would recommend for sure!

Lovely getaway

The house was perfect for a few small families to gather. The finishes are new, there’s plenty of seating and the kitchen is well-stocked (which isn’t always the case with rental houses). We spent most of our time outside at the pool. The one thing I’d mention is that there is a bit of road noise from Alejo—which could be heard through the bedroom walls of the one closest to the street at night.

Heaven in Hell

Not a surprise Palm Springs was unbearably hot in July, but Sun and Games was a perfect place to balance the heat. Pooling shade from when you get up to 9am. Shade back over pool at 5pm so we go enjoy the water, beautifully landscaped yard and hot top. During the day every room had a smart TV for movie watching or binging. Well appointed kitchen made food prep or snacking easy. Going out in the afternoon or evening was fun and the house is close to all the Palm Springs action. Will return.

Beautiful Home & Location/Terrible Communication

We were visiting Palm Springs for a friend getaway and this house was perfect for our stay - very clean, roomy, pool and hot tub and beautiful landscape. Great location as well - close to downtown, walkable to the vintage market on the weekends. However, the lack of communication with the property management company, Vacasa, made the stay stressful and frustrating and because of that I wouldn’t recommend staying in a home that is run by them. My experience was chasing them down for questions and notifications THEY required (ex: heated pool). Completed the complicated check in process minutes before our check in time chasing them down for answers and check in information. Every person I spoke with at Vacasa (and it was about 8 people in 48 hrs) told me different information and made it very confusing. If you can get around the frustrating communication it was a really beautiful property. But again, not worth it in my opinion because the communication process (or lack therof) made for a stressful trip.

Awesome but kinks

Prior to leaving i had confirmed twice that the pool would be heated. When Vacasa called to confirm who I was, he confirmed that it was paid for and would be heated. When we arrived, it had not been turned on. This was the main reason we rented this property. I called the number listed at the house. Todd helped me, at first he gave me attitude, but eventually was helpful. There was no payment on file. Todd stated that i would only have to pay for 2 days instead of three. Spoke to Rod and he was very helpful. He assisted me get thru the process to get the Ipad to control the pool/spa. I would suggest making this process simpler. Just put it in a locked closet instead of the current process. Rod had a great sense of humor as I told him it seemed like we were on a treasure hunt. The back sprinklers were going off many times during the night and day. Kids couldn’t play in yard as it was flooded. Eventually owner turned these off remotely. Todd also had to reset the pool/spa equipment twice. The heater wasn’t turning on. The property is wonderful. So nice to see great cooking supplies. The pool and spa are awesome too. It doesn’t seem that many people have stayed at the property and kinks need to be worked out. It was raining really hard the morning we left. The patio area was flooding from the overflow of the rain chime. I sent Todd a picture and he sent me back a thank you. I would have preferred not to have to contact Vacasa during my stay let alone over 5 times.

Read the Fine Print Regarding the Pool

Overall the property would have worked out well but the listing was not straightforward. We booked our stay with another couple largely because of the pool, hot tub, and yard for our 4 kiddos (all under 3). When we showed up the pool and hot tub were freezing cold so we read the instructions on how to heat the pool which stated it takes about 45 minutes to heat up but didn't have the code to do so. We then reached out to Vacasa they informed us that there was an additional daily charge for heat and it would take 48 hours to fully heat up plus they need a 24 hour notice. Nothing was ever mentioned about this charge when we booked nor was their an option to pay for it then but we were told it was in the booking confirmation email packet. Turns out there's one sentence in the middle of a like a 3 or 4 page PDF that says it takes up to 24 hours to heat the pool and the host needs 24 hours notice. In any case we agreed to pay the additional daily charge because it would still give the kids a couple days with warm water even if it took 48 hours instead of the 45 minutes the home instructions say. Upon agreeing to pay Vacasa they called and said they'd need to confirm with their manager about the request so I waited. When they called back I was told our request to heat the pool was denied because we didn't put in the request 72 hours prior to our arrival. So between the confirmation email packet, the home instructions, Vacasa, VRBO booking, and the manager who got involved, heating the water could take 45 minutes (home instructions), 24 hours (email), or 48 hours (Vacasa) and there's no need to put in a request because there's no mention of it (VRBO), you have to give 24 hours notice (email), you have to request 48 hours prior to your arrival (Vasasa help person)l, or you have to request 72 hours before your arrival (Vacasa manager). On top of not being able to use the pool or hot tub we were charged for a pool service fee. Needless to say, it was very frustrating and disappointing.

Perfect Palm Springs Vacation. A+ for everything!

This hits all my vacation buttons. From the moment we pulled into the driveway and walked through the aqua door, we knew we were some place special. The space is so comfortable and spacious. It is light, bright and sparkling clean inside and out. Everything was easy to use from the TV's to the fireplaces and spa. Our group of 4 couples was so comfortable with four big bedrooms; two are master suites with private bathrooms and the shared bathroom is gorgeous and fine to share. The linens are top notch, the beds are so comfortable. The outdoor space is spectacular. I especially loved the fire pit and looking up at the mountains. The pool and spa are not only soothing to look at from most rooms in the house, but are such a great place to gather and soaking in the spa was fantastic. The dining areas were all big enough for our group. The kitchen is fully loaded and has everything you need from a good coffee maker to great pans, nice dishes and wine glasses. We enjoyed the games. I was a winner at cornhole. And, location, location, location!! The airport is about 5 minutes from the house and yet, we never heard any plane noise. Two of our couples were flying in from out of town. So easy. The house is so close to everything downtown. Maybe a 5 minute drive to all the shopping and dining and definitely walkable. The tram is close, and hiking and golf. There was something for everyone in our group. I would have been happy never leaving the house. I feel rested and relaxed and I can't wait to go back. This will be an annual trip for sure.
