“The villas promise space and quiet, a little removed from Palm Springs' bustle, but still close to everything. I appreciate the full kitchens-more than just a convenience, they suggest a real home-away-from-home feel. I imagine the pool area, with its mountain backdrop, is a welcome spot to unwind after a day of exploring.”
