Great House with good amenities

Our stay at this house was was a pleasant experience. The rooms were clean and comfy. The kitchen was stocked with lots of equipment and we did some light cooking. The heated pool and jacuzzi were a big hit for the kids and the adults. The check-in process was a bit cumbersome but believe that is a requirement of the city. Overall, we would stay again when we visit Palm Springs next time.

Beautiful property

Absolutely loved this property. It was clean, the lighting was exquisite, and the communication with the property was excellent. There is an excellent walking/running path that goes through the property. The pool temperature was excellent, best temperature I have ever experienced in Palm Springs. We would definitely go back again and recommend. There aren't any gates, if you are traveling with pets, they must be kept inside. Other than that, it is on my favorites for locations.

Spacious, clean and well stocked with everything you need. We enjoyed the pool and taking morning walks along the walking path in the community. Bedrooms are large and each with own bathroom. Ability to park in the garage a plus. Alta Mira and Lars did an excellent job communicating and made arrangements for early check in. We will be back!

Quiet stay in the desert!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was very nice! The Desert Princess community was very safe, clean and friendly. It was pretty close to downtown Palm Springs, but is a 15 minute drive to get anywhere. The house was clean and well decorated. Our biggest complaint was the beds; they were really firm. Overall, I would stay here again.

Perfect House

Our group stays in Princess Desert at least once a year for a golf trip. This house was the best we’ve stayed at by far! The check in process was simple and quick! The property management company was extremely helpful with any questions we had. The house was incredibly clean and comfortable. The pool and spa were perfect too!! Hopefully will stay at this property again soon. We recommend this property 100%!

It met our expectations (the photos are very true to the space - if not convey how airy and bright the main living space is) - and in many ways exceeded them. I was particularly pleased with the Altamira team, as they jumped on each of our requests on the SAME DAY! Would happily rent from them again!
