Girls Trip

Loved the location! Really easy to get to and get around. Loved it for that!The pool was great and the layout was perfect for us. There were 6 of us ladies on a girls trip in from Canada. I struggled trying to reach the property manager to see if we could arrive early, but didn't get anything back after a few requests. So, popped in an hour early just to toss our bags in the yard. The cleaners were still there and in a rush. They could have done a better job (I had to do some sweeping around the pool and such.) The property could use a bit of love and touch ups. Carpet and paint need refreshing, but overall comfortable stay. We had plenty of seating, the kitchen is very well stocked and lots of room to roam. Would stay again!

Pretty good until it wasn’t

Check in was very smooth. The house was mostly clean except for a set of dirty sheets (we found extras) and a bathroom with an empty soap dispenser (no extras). The pool was wonderful and the location was as well. The day after check in, due to previously existing plumbing issues, a bathroom flooded (triggered by flushing a toilet in another bathroom), sewage coming out from below the toilet. My in laws cleaned up with whatever extra towels they could find, but some of the flooding soaked carpet in a bedroom. They were advised by the host that there were 2 separate water systems so one bathroom was still functional and they could launder the towels. Unfortunately the laundry triggered more flooding before the plumbers arrived. Eventually they came, scoped, and cleaned. This held up until two days later when the toilet started flooding again. We were down to the towels we’d been using for the pool and showers because the host took the sewage ones, hopefully to be sanitized. The plumbers came and cleaned pipes again, saying a piece would have to be replaced. Our group was 9 family members, including 2 young kids, from 3 different states, so we were very lucky that the host had another large house with different owners that was being checked out of. The owners refunded for the remaining 4 nights we did not have the house, however they stood by the first 3 nights as being an acceptable full-price stay.

Lots of room, good location

Close to everything in Palm Springs, lots of space for a large group or family. Beds are comfortable. Several burnt out lightbulbs, and light above dining room table and fixtures above fireplace in dining room could not be turned on. Some bricks/stones in backyard retaining wall need to be replaced. Enjoyed our stay and the pool and hot tub were great.

Perfect xmas present

We loved our stay! The kitchen was well-stocked, and the rest of the house offered plenty of space for our family of 6 adults and two toddlers to either be together or private - depending on who needed to nap or work. The best part was the lovely salt water pool and hot tub and generous play area. Close to Ruth Hardy park and downtown - we loved everything about this home and had a wonderful time! The host Daniel was also lovely to deal with and very helpful. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

GREAT PLACE

We had an absolutely GREAT time at this property. The owner and manager of the property were amazing and made everything so easy. We had one issue with the kitchen sink, and as soon as I called it was taken care of within a couple of hours. The only thing I wished they had was a covering for the table outside as when it got hot, it would have been nice to have a little shade. Other than that, this was LEGIT. Beautiful, spacious and relaxing. Everything you could ever want in a place to stay!

Points faibles : Propreté

Description Overrated - overall rating of 2 as luxury not met

The Good - Location, well equipped kitchen, grounds were immaculate, good electronics, booking and communication with Daniel the host was exceptional. The Bad - Pool area came with cigarette butts on the decking. Our first night we discovered we had 2 spare rolls of toilet paper for a 5 day stay. The linens were worn, the master flat sheet had holes as large as lemon, likewise many of the towels were tattered. We only had heat to the hot tub one night. Yes, the property manager was contacted. By day 4 we had warm water to the hot tub, but not hot water and the pool cleaning person got us to that point. Tiles were missing from the hot tub and cement chunks coming off the decking. I could go on... I was expecting luxury as the description stated.

We were very happy with our stay and would definitely return. The only complaint our group had was that the 7th bed (the futon) was unusable. We used the couch instead. That piece of furniture should be replaced.

Great property

We were very happy with our stay. The place was big enough for seven adults. We cooked every day and the kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed. The beds are comfortable. The location is great - just a couple blocks from Ruth Hardy park and close to stores and downtown. If you’re a donut fan, don’t miss Jelly Donut. The best part for us was the pool and hot tub. We paid for heat in the pool and swam every day. It was fantastic. Miguel, who welcomed us, was friendly and helpful. Communication with the owners was clear. This place is not luxury, and the street is a little busy, but it was absolutely lovely and perfect for us. A good value, great location, and super fun space inside and out. Would choose it again if I visit with a large group.

Great location, layout and price with some flaws

Seven women friends met for a week reunion."Life of Riiley" was perfect for its location (20 minute walk to downtown Palm Springs), its 5-bedroom layout and price. And property manager, Miguel, was very responsive when we needed him. We'd stay again--in spite of its flaws: 1. PLUMBING. The main drain stopped working third night. Showers didn't drain and toilets began leaking at their bases. It could have been a rare event, but older reviews suggest plumbing is a chronic problem.We spoke to the owner who volunteered that a plumber was coming after we left to fix the entire system. We hope so. 2. The sunroom futon is not adequate as a bed--or private bedroom (despite what owner told me in query prior to renting). The futon is in a very public space, just outside the pool and next to the dining table. As a result, two women had to share a bed which was not what we had planned. For one bed per person, there are only 6, not 7. 3. Communications with owner were challenging. We had to send emails twice (and sometimes follow up with a text) to get a reply. 4. We paid for a heated pool but heater was broken (also seems to be a complaint in older reviews). It was fixed midway through the visit and we were refunded the extra charge. Again, Miguel came to our rescue to get it repaired.

We are 5 retired women who travel well together but like to have our own bedrooms. This property was perfect for us with comfortable furnishings and a wonderful pool area. Our check in 3 stars reflect a plumbing issue which delayed our arrival time and heating the pool. Miguel and owner Daniel were easy to communicate with and responsive. We really enjoyed our 4 night stay!
