WHAT TIME IS CHECK-IN AND CHECK-OUT?
Check-in time is 4 p.m. and check-out is at 10 a.m. Early check-in and late check-out may be available for your reservation.

WILL I NEED TO MEET THE PROPERTY MANAGER TO GET A KEY?
Our homes are keyless entry, we issue a “code” rather than a physical key. The code changes for every reservation so it is an incredibly safe alternative. By issuing the code prior to arrival, the check-in process is much easier.

WHAT ARE THE POOL HOURS? ARE THEY HEATED?
Puerta Azul community: The two community pools are heated year-round and are open 7 am – 11 pm. Homes with a private pool & jacuzzi can be heated for an additional fee. Check individual listing for info.

DO YOU ALLOW PETS?
Certain non-shedding hypoallergenic dogs will be considered at an additional fee. Service animals are permitted, and the fee is waived for such situations (however the animal is never permitted to be in the unit alone if it is a service animal). Please note we do not allow any pets other than dogs.

1) The City of La Quinta & Puerta Azul has a quiet hour ordinance (10 pm – 8 am).
2) No more than 2 vehicles per home unit may be parked on the street at any time during the hours of 12 am – 7 am.
3) No trailer, camper, mobile home, commercial vehicle, truck (other than a standard-size pick-up truck), boat, or inoperable vehicle will be allowed in the community.

House Notes: During the hot summer nights, it's possible to encounter some gentle insects such as crickets, etc.. Rest assured, our property undergoes regular pest control treatments, though a few may still make an appearance. To ensure the upkeep of our surroundings, our diligent pool maintenance and landscaping team may visit the property during the week for service. Your comfort is importance, and we strive to create a seamless and enjoyable experience for your stay.

We've installed a security camera outside, facing the front entrance (placed on the door), to ensure safety during your stay. Additionally, there's a noise monitoring device in the living room to ensure compliance with local noise ordinances during quiet hours.

Little piece of sunshine…

Really enjoyed our stay. I loved the location and the ease to get to everything. The pools were wonderful as was the hot tub. The entire complex was well groomed and beautiful!There are some repairs the owner needs to make but otherwise was a very nice place.

Why they chose this property

The Coachella Valley is a desert oasis unlike any other—where sunshine reigns year-round and relaxation meets adventure. Nestled between the San Jacinto and Santa Rosa Mountains, the region offers a striking blend of natural beauty, resort luxury, and vibrant culture.

Whether you're here for a music festival, a golf getaway, or just to unwind poolside, Coachella Valley delivers. Spend your days exploring world-class spas, art galleries, and high-end shopping in Palm Desert and El Paseo, or discover the charm of Old Town La Quinta with its walkable streets, local boutiques, and top-rated restaurants.

Outdoor enthusiasts can hike the stunning trails of Indian Canyons or Joshua Tree National Park, just a short drive away. Prefer to take it easy? Lounge under palm trees with a cocktail or catch the desert sunset from your private patio.

The area is home to iconic events like the Coachella and Stagecoach music festivals, BNP Paribas Open, and Modernism Week, drawing visitors from around the globe. But even outside of event season, the valley offers a peaceful escape filled with warmth, culture, and unforgettable views.

Whether you're seeking adventure, rest, or a little of both, the Coachella Valley is the perfect place to call home—if only for a while.
