This home was perfect for us! My family and I were moving from CA to TX and this was the first stop in our attempt to make our drive more of a vacation. The home was well equipped with all the necessities to make us comfortable. We swam all day, enjoyed cooking in the spacious kitchen and grilling outside. You won’t be disappointed!
The house provided the perfect experience we were all looking for. Enjoyed the pool, BBQing and spending most of the day outside. The fireplace provided amazing ambience while we wound down for the night and the beds were amazing to sleep in on.
Neighborhood and house are all very well kept. Great place to walk the dog in the morning!
Amazing host who was very accommodating and very communicative. He made sure we were looked after and offered a late check out!
We came to celebrate my husbands 30th birthday and the house was perfect for our chill bbq and pool plans amid quarantine! The seating outdoors and indoors was extremely comfortable and the house was spacious. I don’t think the pictures do the space justice:) Owner was a great communicator. Would definitely stay again!
Great home with a very private backyard. King size bed was super comfy! Property owner super quick on any message replies too. Will def stay here again!

Private relaxation
What a wonderful place to thaw out and relax. Walk to restaurants nearby or just stroll the pristine neighborhood! Pool area was lovely! Enjoyed a movie at night in the living room. All amenities needed are available.

Spring break bliss
Spent the week with the family for spring break at Michaels beautiful home. Everything was perfect, pool and hot tub were amazing, grilled dinner every night except one (Blue Coyote after the Thursday night street fair is tradition!) hiking was especially amazing this year after the recent rains brought the whole desert into full bloom. Looking forward to our next trip!!

Relaxing winter getaway of golf.
Palm Desert is a very beautiful city that is very easy to get around. Location is great for golf and shopping. Definitely an older crowd and very quiet evenings. Being just 50 I did find it a little isolated and lacking in evening activities other than dining. Which many restaurants close at nine. If you golf it is wonderful for that. However not cheap golf by any means. Our first time there. Did find the people and service lovely. We felt extremely safe at all times.

Great vacation in palm desert!!
The house was wonderful. Great pool, good size home on a nice quiet dead end street only 2 minutes away from Bristol farms and Albertsons. Very nice homeowner who knows as available and tended to all our needs. Will be returning.

Pool paradise
The pool was fantastic. The furniture around the pool were comfortable and the grill was great. We put our food on and floated until time to eat. We spent about 10-12 hours in the pool. It was very hard to get out of the water... If you want that much water time, this is the place. House is clean and modern. The AC is excellent even when the outside temp was 108

We always find a way to enjoy our stay, but the property left a lot to be desired
Although the property owner was responsive, the property itself was dirty and horribly maintained

Amazing!
We had an amazing vacation here. The kitchen was very well stocked with all kinds of utensils and spices/oils for cooking. There was an easy to use grill outdoors. The house was spacious with tile flooring and high ceiling walls. Every bedroom was decorated nicely and very comfortable for sleeping. The television in the living room was big and had a sound bar. The pool was about 8 feet deep and we had a blast swimming in it to escape the heat and it came with an attached jacuzzi via waterfall. We had an amazing time here and Michael was a blessing to work with, I would recommend this lovely home to anyone who is looking to get away for a few days.

Great place and owner
We spent the weekend and really enjoyed the central location in Palm Desert. Michael, the owner, was proactive about arrival instructions and had great information ready for us when we got in the house to control pool/spa/AC and remote controls. We were there for a boys golf weekend and had a much nicer time here than we would have at a hotel. Comfortable beds and sofa, nice pool/spa where we spent evenings winding down, and quiet neighborhood....we couldn't have asked for more. Thanks Michael.
