Backyard Oasis

Place is awesome!!!! Pool area beautiful very quiet and peaceful. John our host was perfect always responding to questions etc… definitely would say this will always be on top our list when we come back should it be available. Just a note that the outdoor grill probably should be replaced but it operated very nicely.

Loved the property and would stay again in a heartbeat. Host was great in communicating and the back yard/pool was awesome to view but weather was too cold to spent much time outside. Strongly recommend this home.

Best desert stay ever!!!

My husband and I have been renting homes in Palm Desert and La Quinta for over a decade, and no exaggeration, this was the nicest rental we’ve ever had! The property is beyond 5-star luxurious!!!! And whenever I had a question, John replied instantly! We have only fabulous things to say about our stay with zero complaints. We can’t wait to stay there again!

La Quinta Charmer

We had an excellent time at John’s property! The house was exactly as described, with plenty of room for us to be comfortable for our week long stay. The house was well equipped with all kitchen and grilling equipment you could need, and the hot tub was a wonderful escape! We hope to be back when it is warm to take advantage of the beautiful pool as well!

A wonderful quiet oasis

Our family (4 adults and two children under 4) spent a delightful week at this well equipped home in La Quinta. The house is roomy, well laid out and quiet. We stayed in the master on the main floor and never heard the grandchildren playing upstairs. The beds are comfy and firm and the towels were nice and thick. The high chair was very much appreciated along with the multiple options for blenders and coffee makers! We didn't visit the exercise room or use the communal pools or courts - our pool was more than enough for us to enjoy. The house has enough shade plus two umbrellas so you can actually enjoy the outside and not get fried by the sun. We totally enjoyed hanging out with our grandchildren at Villa Puerta Azul!

Quiet clean property.

Quiet and clean property. Bit of a drive to shopping or restaurants. Pool an extra $50 a day if you want it heated. With the cost to heat it, perfectly understandable. Enjoyable stay.
