A True Gem

We had a fantastic visit to Palm Springs staying at Dos Agaves. I went to Palm Springs with my family for a wedding this fall (5 adults total) and Dos Agaves exceeded all expectations for our accommodations. The travel logistics were very easy to navigate. We flew in from different cities so we had several airport runs, and the house was very convenient. Most of the wedding's events were held at The Parker hotel, an easy walk from the house. The space was more than comfortable for the 5 of us so much so that it was this trip that spurred my quest for a new sectional sofa, to try to match the comfort of the sofa in front of the TV. The pool and outdoor space was so nice to have and we took full advantage. Having a full kitchen, washer and dryer, and all the comforts of home with the beautiful setting of Palm Springs, the decorations and details in the house to match the beauty of the surroundings, made this the perfect way to spend a few days. It was more luxurious and comfortable and certainly more cost effective than several hotel rooms. Everyone in the family is looking for reasons to try to get back to Palm Springs to spend more time at Dos Agaves.

We had such a wonderful time exploring all of the beauties of the Palm Springs, Joshua Tree Park, and Indian Canyon. Rosamund was very accomodating and offers a very well supplied kitchen for those holiday bakefests or simple meals. We have recommended Dos Agaves to everyone we know.

I can easily say I'll rent this home again. Everything was clean and well cared for. The kitchen was well appointed, plenty of beach towels, and the beds were so very comfy with the big comforters. The location was 5 min to downtown, an easy walk to golf courses, shopping, parks, and hiking trails. Really and excellent location. Fresh Grapefruit everyday was a big plus!
