Great House with good amenities

Our stay at this house was was a pleasant experience. The rooms were clean and comfy. The kitchen was stocked with lots of equipment and we did some light cooking. The heated pool and jacuzzi were a big hit for the kids and the adults. The check-in process was a bit cumbersome but believe that is a requirement of the city. Overall, we would stay again when we visit Palm Springs next time.

Perfect House

Our group stays in Princess Desert at least once a year for a golf trip. This house was the best we’ve stayed at by far! The check in process was simple and quick! The property management company was extremely helpful with any questions we had. The house was incredibly clean and comfortable. The pool and spa were perfect too!! Hopefully will stay at this property again soon. We recommend this property 100%!

Beautiful property

Absolutely loved this property. It was clean, the lighting was exquisite, and the communication with the property was excellent. There is an excellent walking/running path that goes through the property. The pool temperature was excellent, best temperature I have ever experienced in Palm Springs. We would definitely go back again and recommend. There aren't any gates, if you are traveling with pets, they must be kept inside. Other than that, it is on my favorites for locations.
