Amazing location! We stayed here with 19 people for my sister’s bachelorette party and the weekend was amazing! There was plenty of room for everyone and we had a blast outside in the pool and enjoyed all the amenities. I highly recommend this place if you’re looking for something to stay with a big group of people whether friends or family!
Every corner of the house was very clean. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed. The kids had a great time with the game room and theater. The host, Vlada was very responsive and got back to us quickly. The house was perfect for our stay!!!
Multigenerational family friendly; responsive, helpful, and friendly host; very clean, spacious, and comfortable. Hot tub temp was good, pool temp could be warmer than 85 and is not large but fun! Great range of entertainment!! Gorgeous surroundings and close to El Paseo.
We were a group of 6 who popped into town for golf and relaxation... couldn't have found a better spot.
Close to everything you need in Palm Desert, this quiet, relaxing, and spacious home is like your own resort in the heart of the desert.
We had the best stay at this property. It had everything we needed to have the most relaxing and comfortable getaway. Wouldn't change a thing and highly recommend it. The kids had the best time with the amazing backyard and pool. Big kitchen that was stocked and lots of rooms!
We were very impressed with the property and the quick response time if we had any questions or needed anything. The house is more than we could have hoped for! Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing weekend.
Weekend getaway of 3 branches of our family. The host was helpful and responsive, the property was great and as advertised, and the house was spacious. From pool, to putting green to swimming to movie room, everyone had something to keep them happy in a large group of 15 people. Would stay again!
My family and I stayed for 3 days. It was the perfect getaway and the house had all the amenities to keep everyone happy and busy. From the time of arrival, I did not have to request anything because Vlada and Emma had everything you would need in the house. The accommodations were excellent! The communication was very helpful and they were quick to respond. My son enjoyed the theatre room and stayed there the majority of the time. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your castle.Maryj
We had a nice time. The property manager was always available and prompt in her responses
I was worried before our arrival about the pool temp; as we had children with us that wanted to swim they made sure the poo was nice and warm when we arrived!!
My mistake, in booking, was not noticing there are no on suite bathrooms. We had to share. We are family, so it was kind of ok. But just an fyi.
Also, the pool is small. Four of the people that were supposed to be there, could not come. There were just nine of us. If the other family had been there and the weather was warm. It would have been a tight fit it the pool.
The house is older. It was clean, which is super important to us!! It had everything you need!! The beds could use new mattresses.
The location is so great! Pretty desert landscape just out of town. With everything you need 5 min away!! Again, property mgr is great!
Hot tub and pool were great, easy to heat up the hot tub. Great communication from the host, she answered all our questions quicklyThe house is perfect for a large group, plenty of space and great community areas we could all hang out. Location is a little bit outside of the el Paseo main area but it is an easy 5 minute drive and the house is quiet at night. Highly recommend staying here.
We had an amazing time at the Desert Castle. House had all the amenities we could have asked for and the host was excellent ensuring we had the best stay possible!
Nice big house. Lots of activities for all ages. There were 17 of us and had a great time. Great host Vlada who responded very timely to our concerns/questions.
