Description The California Dream: La Quinta

Surrounded by several golf courses nearby to the Coachella Valley and Joshua Tree National Park, this villa caught our eye for its location in a beautiful resort. The interior of the home is comfortable, and the little balcony is a nice touch too. Though the bunk beds might suit the little ones best, and space may feel limited at full occupancy, there's plenty of room to stretch out on the impressive grounds. Pick from any of the fifty communal swimming pools, or enjoy the shared hot tubs and gym after a complimentary breakfast.

Home truths:
*Though there isn't enough space around the dining table at full capacity, there is a kitchen nook with additional seating
*We suggest hiring a car for ease – there's parking space in the garage. You'll need to request a parking permit in advance
*This apartment is located in a resort – the swimming pool, hot tub and garden are shared with other guests
*There are around ten steps to climb here, so it won't be the best option for those with limited mobility
*There's an unfenced lake here, so children will need to be supervised at all times
*Breakfast is included, so you don't have to worry about making your own
*Your host asks that you please respect quiet hours between 10pm and 6am
