We arrive at 4PM and our room was not ready after driving over 6 hours and having a dinner reservation. They had to fix the toilet. After waiting 15 minutes we finally got to our room where he was still fixing it. Then the next day after going downtown we came back to our room. the water was shutoff and we asked how long and after a constant back and forth they said 5 hours. There temporary fix was to shower in the tennis court showers and there next thing they offered was to go into another unit and just shower. They refunded 1 night and we had to leave and drive 1.5 hours to another hotel. NEVER AGAIN WILL WE GO TO PALM SPRINGS. IT WAS ALOT DIFFERENT THEN WHAT IS ADVERTISED! What a horrible anniversery trip.

We had an excellent stay at Desert Isle. The property is in good condition and the condos are absolutely huge. It wasn’t particularly busy when we were there so we had the pool area etc. to our self most of the time and had a very relaxing, enjoyable stay. Very easy driving to town and there are a few shops etc. nearby as well. Will definitely stay here again.

The pool had a lot of larvae bugs that you see in ponds. They cleaned the pool the next day but they were still infested. They also cut all the palm trees that day they cleaned the pools and let the debris fall into the pool. We come specifically for the pool since it’s so hot so my kids were kinda bummed. The room was great. Our refrigerator stopped working and they handled it great

Older timeshare complex but the room/suite was upgraded BEAUTIFULLY! Love having 2 bathrooms, great layout, lots of space, big kitchen. Super friendly front desk people! Slight oversight on a couple cleaning things, hair in master shower and one dirty dish but overall excellent so I did not reduce cleanliness score. Pool area is average so if you're looking for a glamorous resort this is not it; I have been working/staying in the area all summer at similar resorts and this tops them all in this price range. Will definitely return!
