Mediados de siglo modernos alma, Lux Euro elegante estilo. El Paseo - South Palm Desert

We really enjoyed this house as our base for 8 days in Palm Desert. We had stayed a couple years ago in the same area and continue to think this it is an excellent place to rent. We walked to dinner many nights and El Paseo (or the surrounding quiet streets) provided a great place to walk in the morning before the stores opened.

Over the years I think we have stayed at 15-20 VRBO's both in the US and abroad. This was our favorite in the states and one of the top we have ever stayed in.

It is well furnished, both in terms of comfortable furniture but also with the little things. The owner and manager are not trying to "nickle and dime" you in terms of supplies. It you need another roll of paper towels - they are there - along with all the soaps and kitchen things that one would need. Additionally a very nice welcome "package" is included. Totally twice what is necessary - just shows the class of the owners.

While the walls are not covered with personal pictures it does feel like someones home - not a corporate impersonal rental. The manager was easy to communicate with and great to meet and deal with on both ends.

In terms of privacy the back yard is completely private - but the house is "see though". While the front yard is 99% private someone standing at the front gate could see into or through the house to the pool area. If you did not come in through that gate normally you might not notice that.

BUT please note that the house is furnished will very well made automatic blinds so you can put the blinds down on the front (while still retaining a good amount of light) if you are that concerned about privacy. I will note than in our 8 days no one came to the gate - it's a quiet street and the manager respects your privacy. We felt totally at ease watching TV at night with the shades "up. There are also blinds on the back of the house as well.

The master bath is great with an awesome rain shower - all in all a super house. To sum it up my wife and I agreed "we would buy this house"!

Thanks to everyone for making our fourth stay at Shadow Lake Drive another excellent experience ... even with the less-than-perfect SoCal weather! It's still the best rental we've ever had, and we look forward to our next visit. Cheers!

My husband and I came here for our honeymoon and had the most relaxing week. This house has everything you need, great kitchen for cooking and even an outdoor kitchen, an amazing pool and hot tub, and it’s very private. We’ve stayed at a lot of air bnbs and this is by far was the best one. Has everything you need in the kitchen including cooking oils, spices, and all the gadgets you can think of. If your looking for a romantic spot with your spouse or even a fun spot for a group of <6 this is wonderful place to come. Thanks again to the owners who are amazing!!

All guests agreed - this was by far the best VRBO rental they have ever stayed! This house is truly an oasis in the desert. Your every need is taken care of and then some. It's very private, clean, well kept, and perfectly stocked. The owners are so wonderful to work with and are so attentive in anything you need. And you can't beat the location! We had a terrific Mom-cation here and we can't wait to return! Wish I could give it 6 stars!

My family of 4 stayed here for five days and it was an amazing experience from booking to departure! We have stayed at many VRBOs, but none even came close to this one. I could write a novel here, but will just try and hit the highlights...

From the moment we booked this home, the owners were unbelievable. I mean that literally...I was stunned over and over by their generosity and thoughtfulness. I reached out with a few questions ahead of time, and received the kind of detailed replies you get from good friends. The owner, knowing my kids were training for an upcoming athletic event, even thought to let us know that there was an annual Women in Sports conference going on during our stay we might want to attend. Seriously...what owners do that?? (Spoiler alert...THESE OWNERS do that!)

The house, and especially the grounds, are nicer than pictured. I am a clean freak, and the entire property (inside and out) was immaculate, even by my standards. And, unlike even the nicest properties we've stayed in before, even the little touches in the house were top notch...The towels, the kitchen equipment, the furniture, the outside furniture...EVERYTHING was high quality and like new. It made me want to care for this property like I care for my own home.

Unlike typical VRBOs, there was an abundance of spices, oils, coffee pods, etc in the cupboard...some of it unopened! I even felt comfortable using spices that were already opened, which is a sign of just how clean everything felt.

My sense from the photos was that the inside furniture looked styled for the house, but probably wasn't comfortable. Sleek furniture often isn't. But I was surprised, especially by the kitchen stools and dining tables, which were super comfortable.

We have been to the area before, and really needed some solid relaxation this time. We barely left the house! But, I should mention it's in a nice quiet neighborhood, and you can walk easily to lovely shops and restaurants.

The house is almost all glass, and totally private...truly. The front yard is a beautiful desert garden, and the backyard is a relaxing oasis. I am getting sad just remembering how fabulous it is, and wishing I was back there now! We booked our return visit within 48 hours of leaving this house -- We've never done that before!!

Thank you, Craig, Catherine, and Leigh...See you next year!!
