Great getaway in Palm Springs, CA
This is a very comfortable place with large well-maintained units. Location is excellent, with a residential street fell, but just off a main thoroughfare. Located close to restaurants and shopping. Friendly staff with good maintenance.

Excellent stay at the Villas
I have stayed at The Villas several times over the years and have always had wonderful stays and great vacations. Quaint, smaller boutique hotel that is close to downtown Palm Springs, shopping and restaurants, it always feels like you have the resort to yourself, even when the resort is full of guests. It also has the unique advantage of being pet friendly, which is a rarity with timeshare properties. The staff is always friendly, accommodating and helpful.

Fantastic week of rest, sunshine,and clear weather
My husband and I just came back from a week's stay at this resort. The pools were sparkling clean, the outside and inside looked like it was freshly painted, the room was huge, had a lot of windows and was well appointed. It lists the kitchen as a kitchenette but it is a full kitchen with a large refrigerator, oven, microwave, big sink and 4 burner stove. We had one of the largest rooms with 2 bathrooms and a large cozy stone fireplace. The manager, Gracie, and Asst. Manager, Peggy, were so nice and helpful. If we needed anything or had questions they were always available. It was very quiet - you could hear the birds singing. There were humming birds, jack rabbit and butterflies. They have a lot of grassy areas, bar-be-ques, tables with umbrellas, chairs, and lounge chairs too around the pool. The room had two big desks which was nice as I brought my lap top as I had to work. The resort is centrally located - less than a 10 min. drive to down town Palm Springs where there is a lively night life with lots of good places to eat. And Cathedral City and Rancho Mirage are only a short drive. You can sit outside and watch the sun go down over the magnificent mountains which are close by. The room was very clean. They allowed us to use the washer and dryer - it was so convenient.
