The house is beautiful
The house is beautiful. A big kitchen and living space. Overall, Mike made us feel very welcome.

The space was great; extremely clean and had everything needed
The space was great; extremely clean and had everything needed. Mike was very helpful and responsive throughout the entire process. Everything was smooth including getting through the gate the first time and utilizing a parking permit for entry after the initial time. Would absolutely stay here again.
Perfectly equipped
Perfectly equipped! Very comfortable , neat , quiet neighborhood, and five star maintenance!
The place was amazing and pristine and close to the pool
The place was amazing and pristine and close to the pool. The kitchen was fully equipped and the outside space was a bonus. The pool did have a lot of debris in it, and it seemed like it was not cleaned out every night.
Mike was great to work with the only complaint I had was it would of been great to have some
Mike was great to work with the only complaint I had was it would of been great to have some fake grass so my dog could just go right outside and do her business.I saw there were lots of neighbors that had fake grass also they should have some boxes of Kleenex instead of using toilet paper for your nose. And the T.V was very difficult but overall we had a good time thank sherri
Great stay
Great stay. Clean, convenient and well-appointed. Everything we needed!
This location was perfect
This location was perfect!!! It was close enough to 2 of the golf courses I played and was able to walk to course. (May want to provide gate codes to get into PGA West Tournament property in the future). Club house, work out room, pool and hot tub was very close.
Honeymoon retreat
We wanted somewhere quiet after a loud wedding week and Hidden Valley delivered. Private pool nobody could see into, hot tub under the stars, and total silence at night except for the wind. Ten out of ten for the honeymoon.
Wedding weekend for guests
Booked for four family members flying in for a wedding at La Quinta Resort. They loved it so much they extended by three days and my brother-in-law is now looking at buying in the area. That’s a house doing its job.
Wife’s birthday, perfect setup
Booked for her 40th. Set the whole thing up before she flew in — champagne in the fridge, string lights on the patio, the pool doing its glowing-turquoise thing at night. She cried in the good way. Thanks to the VARE team for the tips.
Wife’s birthday with the kids
Wanted somewhere the kids could run and she could relax. Mountain Memories was it — big backyard, pool, and enough space inside that when it was 108° outside we all had room to spread out. Owner communication was fast and helpful throughout.
Wife’s birthday celebration
Twelve of us for the weekend, mostly her college friends flying in from around the country. The mountain view was the moment when everyone stopped and went “oh”. Whole trip took off from there. Thank you for the recs on dinner spots.
Girls weekend
Six of us, four days, one house. Palms fit us like it was designed for it — huge kitchen for a wine-and-cheese assembly line, pool for the afternoons, and beds nobody complained about. That’s a win.
Long-weekend reset
Ran ragged, needed a hard reset. Booked three nights of no phone, no email, and this house was the right shell for it. Ate outside, floated in the pool, slept twelve hours the first night. Coming back next quarter.
Poolside week
We came for one thing: to swim, read, and not leave the property. The Palms delivered. Pool is properly sized, palms give shade in the afternoon, and the outdoor kitchen meant we barely went inside for six days.
Anniversary weekend
Fifteenth anniversary, wanted somewhere quiet. Desert Bloom was exactly that — private, calm, the desert doing its evening color-change through the big windows. Owner communication was smooth, check-in was seamless.
Multi-generational trip
Three generations, one house, one week. Grandparents had the master downstairs, we had upstairs, kids had bunks — everyone slept well and nobody was on top of anyone. Perfect layout for a real family trip.
Mother’s Day weekend
Took my mom for Mother’s Day. She has not stopped talking about the light in the mornings, the outdoor tub, and the walk we did through the wash behind the property. Simple house, done right.
