Great Mid-Century vibe condo.

Great place in a great location. We really enjoyed our month at this condo, which has that classic mid-century vibe but has been renovated. It’s adorable! There is a modernized new kitchen and cool colorful furniture. It has great views of palm trees and mountains. We spent a lot of time on the porch. The pool is right there but there’s a big hedge along the fence so you’re not staring at pool people all day. The whole property is pretty quiet and mellow it’s not a crazy party place or anything. The main bedroom is big and has a new bathroom that’s bigger than we expected like a nice hotel bathroom with a walk in shower, then another bedroom (didn’t really use) has a bathroom across the hall that’s like a cool updated version of a ‘60s bathroom. The owner was great to deal with and seemed really proud of the place, we didn’t have any problems. It’s really close to El Paseo, I guess you could walk there but we drove. Lots of cool restaurants and shops, and there are a bunch of hikes nearby. We did one called “bump and grind” which seems pretty popular (go early or it gets too hot!). Great stay, we’ll be back next year!

About the host

Hosted by Cynthia

Host profile image
As a staffing recruiter, I have a passion for helping people find their dream jobs and building strong connections with clients and candidates. However, my journey hasn't always been focused on recruitment. Prior to joining the staffing industry, I pursued my love for acting and pursued opportunities both on stage and screen.

Unfortunately, 2020 and 2021 brought immense loss to my life when my parents passed away. In their memory and with the little money they left me, I decided to invest in a new home which I am extremely proud of. This new chapter in my life has taught me the value of family and has inspired me to work even harder to support those around me.

Through all of life's ups and downs, I remain committed to personal and professional growth, and to using my experiences to become a more compassionate and effective recruiter for all those I serve.

Why they chose this property

This property is not just a physical space for me, but rather a labor of love and a tribute to my parents. When I received the little money they left me after their passing during COVID, I knew I had to use it to create something special in their honor. They loved coming to this area, and so I decided to look for property that would be a fitting memorial to their lives and the memories we shared.

After many months of searching and countless viewings, I finally stumbled upon this mid-century condo. It was a rare find, not only because of its pristine vintage condition, but also for the emotional connection it held to my family. I knew that this was the place I had been looking for - a place where my parents' memory could live on for years to come.

The renovation process was no small feat, but with every upgrade, I felt as though I was honoring my parents and their unwavering love and support. I tried to maintain the original mid-century style, but also ensuring that the property met all modern requirements and was up to code.

As I worked, I poured all my love and attention into every detail, every corner of the property. And now, as I sit and reflect on what I have created, I feel a sense of pride and joy that only comes from knowing that this place will always hold a special place in my heart.

While I currently split my time between here and my work obligations elsewhere, one day I hope to make this place my permanent home - a place where I will continue to lovingly care for and cherish the memories of my parents.

What makes this property unique

This condo offers a number of unique benefits that make it a truly special place to call home. Firstly, the grounds are simply stunning, with beautiful, lush grass and breathtaking views that must be seen to be believed. Whether you're relaxing on the porch or taking a dip in the heated community pool, you'll be surrounded by natural beauty that soothes the soul and invigorates the senses.

Another key benefit of this property is its prime location in the complex. Situated high on the hill and far away from the road, this unit offers peace, privacy and security in abundance. You'll be shielded from the noise and hustle of daily life, able to relax and unwind in a serene and tranquil environment that truly feels like your own.

But perhaps the most amazing benefit of all is the unique history of this unit. As the former model home when the complex was first showcased in the 60s, this property holds a special place in the heart of the community. You can feel the love and care that went into building and maintaining this unit, evident in every inch of the design, the layout, and the finishes.

All of these benefits combine to create a truly exceptional living experience - one that is defined
