The Sandpiper complex is unique and historic. Each 'circle' has a collection of about 16 Mid-Century Modern condominiums surrounding a swimming pool. The grounds are beautifully maintained and there is a nice amount of separation from other neighbors. It's a very relaxing environment. Our condominium was very large (3 bedrooms/2 baths) and offered a large internal patio area where we could have breakfast and dinners. The front room area had large windows that offered sunlight and great views of the grounds ... we could easily have 6 adults together sitting together in the sectional and chairs. The bedrooms were large and offered privacy at night. The kitchen was very well appointed with pots, pans, utensils, coffee maker, glassware, dishes, new microwave, refrigerator and dishwasher. One real plus over most rentals we have done over the years was that this unit was well stocked with paper goods, cleaners, towels, and basic supplies (spices, ice-maker, etc.). The owner was wonderful to work with (very responsive if you had a question) and has plans to continue to upgrade the condo over the next year. We have been coming to Palm Springs several times a year for the last dozen years and this location is perfect. You are within walking distance of El Paseo Drive (shops and restaurants) and being in Palm Desert is a great 'mid-point' for the entire valley ... you're equal distance to Palm Springs/airport as you are to Indio/LaQuinta. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
