This casita is in a great location as long as you have a car. Close to lots of restaurants and great hikes. Very comfortable accommodations. Quiet and private. Clean and new. I would recommend staying in Palm Desert over Palm Springs or Rancho Mirage. We loved everything about the casita and the area! Our only suggestions for improvement: 1) cable tv would be great and 2) a regular electric coffeemaker would be a nice upgrade from the one there. We could not make decent coffee with the drip style one, but maybe we were not doing it right.
Also, the stepping stones to get behind the house to the casita are a bit challenging with rolling luggage.
We would absolutely come back - the owners were very nice and their calm little dog was a sweet companion on the shared pool deck.
