Bridal/ Bachelorette weekend
Cute little place! We had a bachelorette/bridal weekend. One of the guest contacted Eric to setup decor early with out the bride to be knowing, it was a total surprise! We had a little issue with the hot tub not coming on but Eric easy to get a hold of & was quick to fix the issue. The decor and view was super awesome! We had a blast.

Cool retro vibes
Loved the retro look of the casitas. Solid view, above the action so it feels private for your group but not so far that it’s difficult to go out for dinner and drinks. A beautiful property and super fun space for our bachelorette weekend. All amenities are well stocked too. Owner was quick to respond. He does check on the outdoor cameras though, which felt a little odd at times. But I understand him wanting to make sure the property was well taken after.

Great 7 night stay in the desert
We traveled here the week between Christmas and new years and had a great stay. The weather was too cold to enjoy the pool, but the hot tub is very large and very hot, which definitely made up for it in the evenings. The decor of the property aspires to be mid-century and much of it seems authentic. The apartments are spacious and have anything you need for cooking and relaxing. The setup is really great for several couples to have their privacy and for everyone to gather. The internet worked well and this would probably also be a good site for a working getaway. Eric, the host was very responsive and had several tips about the area, things to do, and places to eat. It's about a 20 min drive to Palm Springs, but it is a bit closer to Joshua tree than any palm springs options. I would happily stay here again.

Getaway Friendsgiving Reunion
My friends and I (mid-30s) booked The Getaway (the full property) for Friendsgiving and it was a wonderful environment for catching up and hanging out, but that still gave couples and individuals in our party some space and privacy during our reunion :) Well situated for runs/walks in the Desert Hot Springs neighborhood, day trips to Joshua Tree and Palm Springs. The hot tub was sublime, and communications with Eric were seamless and always prompt - he was kind enough to give us some tables for our Thanksgiving away from home, and everyone used the kitchenettes to cook a proper meal. Wonderful host, and a lovely stay!

Fun spot in the sun
Easy check in process. Great place to hang by the pool. Great communication. Have to pay a little extra to heat pool/hot tub but reasonable cost.

Funky, lovely, secluded little experience!
The perfect size for my party of 12 for a 3-day weekend! Eric was very responsive and helpful with answering questions about the facilities and local offerings in the neighborhood. There's not much directly in the area, but why would you need to leave, anyway? We loved having our own pool, beautiful view of the mountains and famous windmills, and being far enough from surrounding buildings that things felt private. The beds were comfortable, showers were hot, and every room had something unique and fun to offer. A few basics were missing from the kitchenettes, but overall this was a great choice for a staycation and I've already recommended it to more friends and family. Will definitely come again!

Very unique and so much character
This property is so cool. We were a friend group of 9 adults that rented the property for a weekend. There are 5 individual studio/one-bedroom units, and each one was special. Swimming in the pool & soaking in the Jacuzzi were going to be the main event for our weekend, but the pool was too cold for the majority of us (weird that it could be too cold when temperatures were 100 degrees +), and the Jacuzzi was only slightly warmer than the pool (still too cold for me). We had planned to heat the Jacuzzi, which is an add-on option per the listing, but when I reached out to Eric 2 weeks prior to our stay to request the Jacuzzi to be heated, he informed me that the heater was not working. This was disappointing because we were looking forward to spending our evenings in the Jacuzzi. I wouldn't have booked this property if I knew the Jacuzzi wouldn't be heated. Other than that, Eric was a great host, and I would love to return and pay extra to heat both pool and Jacuzzi when that's an option.
