The unit we had was nice. We really liked the full kitchen area as we don’t like to eat out every night. Unfortunately the office staff were not helpful at all. They had no clue how to use bus system running right passed their property, and generally were rude as if they didn’t want us asking any questions. We also had to remove our garbage at week’s end. Have never seen this before!!

Spacious 2 bed condo. Property a little worn but very clean and functional. We were on the ground floor and could hear noise from upstairs such as shower running. Other than that is a quiet location can not hear any traffic/hwy noise. Good location, 30-45 minute walk into the main downtown area. Close to bike route, Free bike rental at the property. Pool and hot tub were good.

We had a truly wonderful stay at Desert Vacation Villas! The space was exactly what we needed—charming, cozy, and full of character. While it isn’t brand-new or ultra-modern, that’s part of its appeal—it feels like visiting your favorite aunt’s welcoming home. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, the heated pool and jacuzzi were fantastic, and the price for such a prime location is unbeatable. We can’t wait to come back!

The room was very nice. I love having a kitchen in the room. It makes a longer stay much easier. The only complaint I have is that the floor fan in the bedroom was so loud that I couldn't use it. I bought a fan for 10 bucks at the thrift store, so I was fine.

I really can't say enough good things. The property was spotless, on the grounds and in the rooms. A lot of other rentals in the area seemed to have questionable reviews, so it was a great relief to find a spot like this.

After over 100 visits to Palm Springs in my lifetime this one place made me feel so at home and a place where I could hang my hat. It was spacious it was clean. It was well accessorized more so than any room I’ve ever stayed in and we fully enjoyed it all of us.
