Comfortable Stay

This property had all we needed! The beds were comfortable, kitchen had all I needed for making meals and the pool was just steps away. We enjoyed the condo community and El Paseo was less than 2 miles away for shopping and good eating. The property managers quickly responded to our needs. Would definitely stay here again!

Escape from winter

This is the first time my husband and I have left our home for one month. After experiencing a big winter a year ago, we determined it would be nice to have a break from the cold snowy conditions we frequently face. This was perfect! We loved the location of the condo and the community in which it’s located. It was well equipped for all our needs. The property manager was responsive to any questions we had. We will definitely return to the same area again and perhaps even extend our stay. This is a real gem!

Manzanita Ct

After initial snafu w/wrong gate code & mgmt telling us there was not a code… friendly neighbors set us straight. Great location!Porcelain tile floors cold & hard to keep clean which made for more housework than we wanted. Overall, very nice but we object to very high booking fee (1000) compared to other rentals. Will book w/different company in future

Views Made the Stay Great!

We had a long extended stay in this condo. It was nicely decorated and it had everything we needed. The best part was looking out the kitchen window, or sitting at the dining table, or the living room looking at the Mountain View’s. The condo is raised or higher than others so it has a really nice view. The only thing that was a little loud at first was the AC but we got used to it. The condo complex is very nicely kept up, gardeners, pool, etc. Our dog loved the walk around the grassy parts of the grounds. And finally, the contact for condo were exceptional, very prompt in responses and helpful when I had any questions.
