Top California Vacation Rental Reviews

Owners are fantastic.
I stayed here with my senior dogs for a much enjoyed winter break. Some family stayed periodically throughout but it was mostly the dogs and I.
The location was perfect for us. Close to some moderate trails and the Rancho Mirage dog park. A wonderfully nostalgic neighbourhood with mid century modern homes and mature palm trees. The outdoor space is very private quiet and comfortable. Inside was a mid century treat including a well stocked kitchen. This was perfect for our wants and needs.

Access to the property was easy with clear instructions provided. Our first impression was wow! The pictures are good but don’t do the condo justice. Beautifully decorated and notably clean.The condo was furnished attractively but more importantly very comfortably. The beds were great with lots of additional bedding and towels in the linen closet. We enjoyed the opportunity to have some meals in and the kitchen comes with new appliances and everything you need to cook or bake can be found. There is a really large bbq on the patio as well. The patio is virtually steps to the closest pool and the new walking path/nature preserve. My husband did some work and the office nook in the main bedroom was a perfect spot with dedicated light and seating. Wifi was strong and we enjoyed the cable tv vs the subscription options many rentals have. Having laundry at the condo was also very convenient. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful surroundings, safe, quiet, peaceful neighborhood, and unsurpassed comfort inside. Highly recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay at this condo in Cathedral City. This home has the best-equipped kitchen that we have ever occupied. It's hard to think of a single thing that could be added to it. While this unit is upstairs, we found that climbing a flight of stairs was a very good trade-off for the privacy that the upper floor provides. The resort gounds are immaculate; there is one heated pool in winter, and several hot tubs. It is a five-minute drive from Cimarron, an excellent golf course with reasonable (for the California desert) rates. Grocery shopping is nearby and convenient. The location of the condo is between Palm Desert and Palm Springs, a 10-15 minute drive from each. The hosts are extremely responsive and a pleasure to deal with.

Wonderful condo overlooking the golf course. Everything you could need including throws for cold morning on the porch. And the bighorn sheep come practically to the door! Only drawback, no fault of owner, is that not all the spas and pools were heated (Thanksgiving).

The accommodation was very comfortable and clean. It was very well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The neighborhood was quiet. Communication with the owner was good and all information was provided in a timely manner. I would happily recommend this property to others. Thank you for a lovely stay.

We loved staying in Rancho La Quinta. The house was possibly even better than shown in the pictures with a great, comfortable, relaxing and luxurious family feel and superb amenities. Ian, who manages the house, was extremely helpful both before and throughout our stay, responding speedily to any questions. If you love the sun, views and ambience of the desert this is a fabulous place to stay.

What an amazing house with a kind and thoughtful owner. The house is so well constructed and beautifully decorated. It is comfortable and well stocked. The radiant heat floors were a wonderful bonus. Bring your whole family - it is a real treat!

We stayed at this property in Cathedral City for eight nights and thoroughly enjoyed it. It has everything that you could possibly want including a well stocked fridge! If you are looking for a really nice, affordable place to stay, take a close look at this property!

It was an oceanfront condo with easy access to the beach and all the area. Very good for biking and walking. A reserved place for the car was helpful.

We (six british guys) were on a baseball trip to L.A. in September 2013 and chose this property because of it's proximity to Angel stadium. We cannot express how pleased we were with our choice. This house was perfect for us as a group and it would be a great location for a family vacation too. The property is, clearly, a home and has everything you could need for your stay. For us the most important features were extremely comfortable beds, wifi (new I believe), satellite TV, large fridge, enough showers for a group, washing and cooking facilities, gated community (safe) and plenty of room so we could have our own space. There are plenty of places to eat/drink in the area and for $12 all six could get to Anaheim Amtrak station for travel into L.A. (also close to Angel stadium and an open mall called outlets at Orange).
We also used the Metro from Newark, which has a park and ride facility and is very safe although busy on weekdays with commuters. At weekends $5 gets an all day pass.
San Diego is a couple of hours drive and is a beautiful city (and home of the Padres so another ballpark ticked off the list).
Of course there's Disney too. Very close and probably a similar taxi fare to Anaheim station, although we didn't go ourselves on this trip.
When I return to LA I will be checking the availability of this home from home.
