Great property!
We enjoyed our time at the Getaway. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It was also close to the things we planned to do like Joshua Tree and Palm Springs. We struggled a little with restaurants but that was not Eric’s fault! He communicated well and everything was as promised.

Comfortable and clean
The condo had a great location with wonderful views of the mountains. The apartment was clean, spacious and well equipped. Eric was very responsive and quick to answer any questions. Only feedback I have is that the walls must be a bit thin since you can periodically hear your neighbors in the adjoining units.

Vintage heaven
My daughter and I spent 2 nights here for a quick getaway. Super cute place. Perfect for the 2 of us. The apartment is decorated beautifully. Everything is vintage and in great working condition. We were the only guests so we had the pool and spa to ourselves. The weather wasn't too warm so the pool was a bit cool. The location is super quiet. There is a supermarket and many restaurants within 2 miles. We will be back.

Overall the property was great. The private pool and hot tub with lots of shade. No need to be heated during the warmer months. It’s in a quiet part of town but the walls are very thin and you can hear every word of the neighbors next to you.
