My wife and I were in La Quinta for the Ironman event. The place we stayed at was excellent! The location was great, and all of the comforts and amenities were provided. Great beds, a well appointed kitchen, clean bathrooms with an abundance of towels. I could go on, but the best part of our stay? The pool and hot tub, hands down!

Wonderful place for a getaway retreat. The condo has everything you need. And the backyard really was a nice oasis to hang out and enjoy the sun. The garage parking was too small for my large SUV, but parking in front of the garage is available so it wasn’t an issue. The gated front entrance made us feel secure as well. Overall would def recommend

A wonderful quiet oasis

Our family (4 adults and two children under 4) spent a delightful week at this well equipped home in La Quinta. The house is roomy, well laid out and quiet. We stayed in the master on the main floor and never heard the grandchildren playing upstairs. The beds are comfy and firm and the towels were nice and thick. The high chair was very much appreciated along with the multiple options for blenders and coffee makers! We didn't visit the exercise room or use the communal pools or courts - our pool was more than enough for us to enjoy. The house has enough shade plus two umbrellas so you can actually enjoy the outside and not get fried by the sun. We totally enjoyed hanging out with our grandchildren at Villa Puerta Azul!
