Overall we were happy with the condo. It has a good layout with two bedrooms given privacy and adjacent bathrooms. As it faces north, the main patio is shaded, so it was a little too cool to enjoy most of the winter. The private patio on the south side made up for that, although it didn't have a view and the disintegrating plastic wicker furniture made it look a little shabby. More comfortable lounging furniture for the patios would be appreciated. The gated community was very quite with little traffic, so it was a pleasant place for walks. It was conveniently close to Old Town La Quinta. The condo was fairly well equipped, and the quality of the equipment adequate. There were some irritating omissions: the toaster oven wouldn't toast properly. It dried out the bread and took ages to brown it. There was a coffee maker that takes pods, but we don't care for that style. The regular coffee maker would MAKE coffee but not keep it warm - frustrating. There was no electric hand mixer, rolling pin, electric juicer or salad spinner, all fairly bulky items that would be unreasonable to expect a renter to supply, especially if arriving by air. As we had driven and had been given only a general idea of what would be provided, we brought a few of these things with us. All units should have electric juicers as there is so much citrus fruit in the Coachella Valley. We did ask for a tray (important to carry food and drink to the patio) and some more wine glasses and they were quickly provided. The few needed repairs were looked after quickly. There was no bin for recyclables to put streetside. That should be the responsibility of the condo owner. The living room furniture Ned's replacing It has a very thin leather covering which is disintegrating, spreading little flakes of white leather everywhere. We put a blanket over the worst. We asked but we're never told where the mailbox was, although there appeared to be a mailbox key provided.
