After initial snafu w/wrong gate code & mgmt telling us there was not a code… friendly neighbors set us straight. Great location!Porcelain tile floors cold & hard to keep clean which made for more housework than we wanted. Overall, very nice but we object to very high booking fee (1000) compared to other rentals. Will book w/different company in future

Escape from winter
This is the first time my husband and I have left our home for one month. After experiencing a big winter a year ago, we determined it would be nice to have a break from the cold snowy conditions we frequently face. This was perfect! We loved the location of the condo and the community in which it’s located. It was well equipped for all our needs. The property manager was responsive to any questions we had. We will definitely return to the same area again and perhaps even extend our stay. This is a real gem!

Comfortable Stay
This property had all we needed! The beds were comfortable, kitchen had all I needed for making meals and the pool was just steps away. We enjoyed the condo community and El Paseo was less than 2 miles away for shopping and good eating. The property managers quickly responded to our needs. Would definitely stay here again!
