Great place!

The apartment was perfect for two people. It was bright and decorated appropriately. The pool and hot tubs were very clean. Although you have to drive to downtown, the iconic Purple Club is in walking distance, and for breakfast Elmers is right across the street.

Beautiful area. Nice Lodge

We were surprised to see this unit is on the second floor with no elevator access. The online pictures made it appear as if it was ground level. Nonetheless, we were very pleased with the unit, and the amenities offered at Ocotillo Lodge. The hosts were very accommodating and a pleasure to work with.

Property was clean and nicely decorated. Had everything we could need. We would definitely stay here again. The lodge's large pool is a relaxing way to float your day away listening to music of the Rat Pack era.
