Marriott's Desert Springs Villas II

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a great get away with or without kids. Love it!!!"

The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was excellent. The hotel was clean and cozy, the pools were clean and well-maintained, and our room was spacious and beautiful. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed, including all the necessary cookware and utensils. The only downside I noticed was that there were very few umbrellas around the pool area for shade."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Palm Desert

10/10 Excellent

"This is the second time we have stayed as a family here. It’s great for kids, staff is wonderful- shout out to Seamore the waiter/ bar staff, and the rooms were clean and comfy. The location is very convenient and the food was delicious. I hope more people read this and enjoy their time there as well. I just hope the prices remain affordable 😊"
