Location...Location...Location is all I have to say. This property is located in the up and coming arts district of Palm Springs. Even though it is not right down down, it worked out perfect for my girlfriends and I. It's close distance to the Spa Casino if gambling is your thing...and also about a mile to the heart of all things... More

We were fortunate to get one of the updated 2 bedroom suites. It was 200 something. Ground floor. Great price and everything was clean and modern. Nice pool area. Helpful ladies at the desk. Beautiful view of mountains and close to many restaurants. Would return.

I like smaller private places, but this place was a joke. The room smelled like a smoke pit and it wasn't in the least bit clean. I think the sheets were dirty, but mostly it was the smell that drove me crazy in a nonsmoking room. The pool was nice and the staff were pleasant.

This was our first experience using our time share. After arriving at the property at 3pm, excited to be there, we soon realized it was not the experience we had expected. Once we found the office, 3 ladies were sitting behind the desk, and not one said a word to us. They were having a discussion amoungst themselves and we... More
