A nice hideaway
It was very convenient and close to good dining and downtown Palm Springs. There was a 7eleven near as well as gas stations. Perfect little hideaway place.

Great stay at a nice place
The entire family had a great time. The rooms were comfortable, the property was quiet yet family friendly and the area felt safe. We enjoyed our two-night stay but would have been very happy to spend an entire week there. Check in process was a little confusing because we arrived late, after the office closed, but the outdoor phone was very helpful and all the information we needed was in the envelope that was waiting for us. We would definitely stay there again.

Condo in Palm Springs
The two bedroom condo was perfect for our stay. They provided everything that we needed. It was also in close proximity to many of the tourist destinations.

Exceeded expectations!
This was the perfect place to stay for our family of five while visiting Palm Springs. Two bedroom unit was so roomy! Food, shops, gas everything was nearby. Stunning Mountain View’s, friendly staff, I could go on! The interior was slightly dated, but very clean. I hope not much changes about this place and it keeps being an affordable option. We will be back!

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!

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.
