Beautiful and very spacious property. TV was slow. We spent a lot of time trying to figure out light switches. The area was extremely quiet. We only ran into guest at the pool. Loved the peace and quiet.

Beautiful location. Extremely comfortable house, equipped with everything you need. Could use a better coffee pot and toaster, but all in all, we were happy. Great host.

The front desk people were very friendly. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with things needed to cook breakfast (that's all we cooked there--it looked like you could cook any meal there, though). The resort and grounds were very nice with a lot to do.

For the day-wanderers, a hike along the desert trails or visiting the impressive art galleries that adorn the place is certainly a treat.

Art and culture come alive in Palm Desert

The thriving art and culture in this region will keep any art lover enthralled. Booking a Palm Desert vacation home in town will make sure you are never too far from these intriguing attractions. Apart from the colorful public art lining the streets, El Paseo Drive is littered with art galleries filled with amazing sculptures, paintings and modern art from local and visiting artists. Be sure you're in town the first Friday of the month, as from November through May, the art galleries stay open late for the renowned El Paseo ArtWalk.

If you're thirsting to taste culture in the form of drama, musical performances and theater, McCallum Theater is the place to go. It hosts Broadway plays that will make you laugh and cry.

In the evening, you can head to the Cholla Cactus Garden to witness a mesmerizing sunset. Be sure to make it to Keys View in the Little San Bernardino Mountains to take in a spectacular view of Coachella Valley.

The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens is partly a zoo and partly a botanical garden.

You and the kids will love the giraffe feeding session, and make sure not miss the wildlife show, which is included in the entrance fee.
