As delightful as always! Coming to the Desert Villas is like coming to your little dacha in Palm Springs - so cozy and familiar. Our baby girl couldn't get enough of the heated pool, and we were enjoying ourselves in the peace, charm, and serenity of the beautiful setting. We come often and will make sure to be back soon!

I sm so happy I found this place. It is now on my favorite list. Thank you so much Vivian for making my stay feel welcome. The apartments is clean, roomy and I got the peace I was looking for. I walked by the pool area a few times, it was clean, I saw families engaging with the kid's in the pool, the kids were having so much fun swimming, playing music and they all looked so happy. Great place to visit with the kid's or just some R&R. I will be back. Hundred stars!!! Kimberly Rogers PS I loved my well equipped kitchen and parking is so easy and close to the apartments with easy access to the apartments.
