Marriott's Desert Springs Villas I - Palm Desert

great staff, beautiful facility, pool, and spa. only complaint was the bed. not very comfortable. would be nice to have an" adult only" area for retired people of couples who want to get away - there were many kids running through our patio and around the pool. it was difficult to relax with the noise level of teens and kids.

Except for the fact that you had to pay extra for maid service, this hotel was great for the 3 days i stayed; if i had stayed longer i would have had to pay for maid service as they did not clean the toilets. it was close to the tennis tourney indian wells; free laundry room w/soap, perfect, friendly, easy!!!

Nicely refurbished rooms, large patio, excellent amenities like pools, gym and tennis programs. Only complaint is too much leaf-blower noise in morning.

Make sure to ask for room on golf course. We got a concrete wall for a view, no coffee and hot and cold water reversed!

Rates too high for the quality.

Great location in Palm Desert and really enjoyed the room and the staff. One of the great things is that the bath tube is absolutely giant and the shower/vanities are well done also!

One of the main features of this resort is the spa/gym. Even though it is not indicated on the website or in the literature, we were asked to pat $ 35/per person per day to use these facilities. A call to the office was met with a brusque reply about contractual arrangements with the spa management which is separate from Marriott. We replied that this […] was not relevant to the consumer, especially since there was no notice of the extra charges. No accommodation was made and we found the explanation inadequate and irrelevant.

Not only do you get to hear your neighbors slamming their front door (your share an entryway with one other room) you get to hear it again in the morning with housekeeping. It is nice that there is coffee in the room but do not expect the amenities such as snacks, water, etc. available for purchase. And the rooms are slightly out of date.

Nice complex in the Marroitt complex in Palm Desert. Beautiful grounds, Great bed, full kitchen.

WE had a nice time and the kids loved being at the pool all day long. We will be back.

its like a little city you dont even have to get out of the hotel... amazing views, its connected to the jw, you can get a boat tour around the lake which is amazing... the hotel has very good restaurants with great lake views and golf course views.. it is great for tennis and bike riding.. great location, close to everything.. soakcity , tramline, […] shopping malls Read more

Overall our stay was great. The room was clean with a fully equipped kitchen, which was very convinient for us. The resort is big and perhaps a "golfer's dream come true".. huge, huge golf area. We are not golfers, so the pool and a quiet stay is what we were going for. We found the quiet stay for sure. The pool area was ok, nothing too impresive. Older […] crowd. There is a $25 house keepping fee; we stayed three nights and all housekeeping did was drop off towels... did not even make the bed or change sheets. We went to the SW Marriott and payed a $15 fee to use the pool, the crowd was beautiful and the vibe exactly what we were looking for. Although we enjoyed the Mariott Villas, I do not believe we would stay here again. We will try the JW next time! Read more

By accident we booked Villas I this trip having spent prior visits in Villas II. Since we were very happy at past stays in Villas II (newer, seemingly better views, nice layout), we didn't know what to expect at Villas I this time. The unit we received was very nice on balance. The specs said it was larger in size ... about 250 sq ft for the 2-bedroom […] compared to Villas II ... and it did seem so. Several differences we noticed and appreciated ... sunken living room, working fireplace for chilly evenings, jacuzzi tub and shower in smaller bedroom, double beds in smaller bedroom vs rollout couch. We liked the layout of the smaller bedroom better than Villas II. So on balance Villas I DID work well for our family! And we would return ... to either Villas II or I now that we tried both. Most things remain the same ... but worth repeating. The shuttle service is very convenient to and from the Marriott Hotel. The Marketplace "convenience store" is convenient but VERY overpriced. There are other options within easy reach. The location of the Marriott Vacation Club Resort is close to all the places we like ... the mountains, restaurants, El Paseo, etc. Most likely will return again. P.S. our units have always been serviced daily which is very nice touch in these condos. We had a roof leak and a clogged sink and both were quickly addressed. Good job! Read more

We usually stay at the JW Marriott next door and decided to try the Villas based on the reviews. The villas were spectacular. Fireplace, jaquizzi garden tub, kitchen full dining room, and a great view. We will definitely stay there again. The pool was nice, with a bar and soon to be food service. It definitely drew an older crowd, which was nice as […] there were few small children running around. These are perfect for a romantic getaway, or a trip with friends. The staff were outstanding.

GOOD: 1. Location is the best. 2. Villas are gorgeous and just remodeled. 3. Beautifull view outside all Villas 4. All 10 pools were heated to 84 degrees BAD: 1.Sugar Ants all inside the room all over! 2.Spa inside was filthy It had dead skin, long hair inside and was throwing black stuff out the jet like if it had old pipes. 3. Sheets on bed looked […] like they where in a fight with a black Pen. Read more

This place is awesome. They are super accommodating. It was 4:30 am. and I called the front desk and asked for a battery for my insulin pump and they had security bring it to me within 15 minutes. The room was super clean and the jacuzzi was wonderful. If we are ever in Palm Desert, we would definitely stay here again.

We didn't really know what to expect based on the low price we paid. We were very pleasantly surprised. We had a 1 bedroom, lower level condo and it was spacious and very nice. Only slight drawback to the downstairs unit is that we could hear the people upstairs walking around, showering, etc. We really enjoyed our stay.

The room was very nice. Everything was very clean and pleasant. Beds were very comfortable. Would definately recommend this to others.

My sister and I stayed for a girl's getaway. The shuttle took us to the JW Marriot... With the Villas I, you are able to use the pool at the JW Marriot... The only complaint was that there were these tiny ants in the kitchen. Not a major deal, but a little gross...

We, all 5 of us, had a wonderful stay in the Marriott Desert Springs villas! The villa was beautifully decorated and maintained with a really well equiped kitchen. A real home from home!

Gode lejligheder, masser af service, resortbetjening ved poolen. Om man vælger villas I eller II er efter vores mening ikke afgørende, da beliggenheden stort set er den samme. Pool'ene er så gode, at man alligevel ikke benytter tilbuddet (inkl. ved ophold i Villa I) om at tage shutle til et større poolområde. Masser at lave for hele familien!

luksushotel med udsøgt standard og service. alt er gennemført.dejlige værelser med dundyner og store badeværelser,avis på dørmåtten og god service i receptionen. rigtig god betjening i restaurant og god mad men prisen er heller ikke lav. både pool og fitness-center er gode og der er bus til selve hotellet, da vi boede i lejlighed( værelse i bebyggelse […] på området). meget smukke og velholdte omgivelser Read more
