We stayed at this beautiful home over Christmas and had an absolutely wonderful time! The house was even more stunning than the pictures — spotlessly clean and so welcoming. Tiffany was amazing to work with — incredibly responsive, kind, and accommodating from start to finish.Walking around the neighborhood was lovely, with friendly faces everywhere. We only used the hot tub a few times, but it was perfect each time, and we loved relaxing by the fire pit with a glass of wine while watching the golfers go by. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our Christmas Eve and Christmas Day dinners — we brought food just in case places were closed, and it worked out perfectly.This was truly an amazing place to stay, and we’ll most definitely be back! Our only regret is running out of time before getting to enjoy the bikes.

This house was perfect for a 2 family getaway for thanksgiving.

We spent 4 wonderful days in the house, Bedrooms, linen and beds are 4-5* hotel quality. The house was fully equipped, great entertainment setup (tv, loaded roku, games). The long tables (indoor and outdoor) were perfect for festivities. The pool is small but good enough for adults and teens. We loved it.

Great house!

Our group of 4 adults loved our stay here for a long weekend of golf and hiking. The home was the perfect amount of space for us. It is clean and very well kept, well equipped with all the necessary amenities and offered great gathering space, both indoors and outdoors. Communication from booking through checkout was excellent. We'd certainly stay here again. Our only wish for an improved stay was that we could have used any of the neighborhood access gates rather than always making the drive to the main one.

Wonderful Stay

We had a great time at the house. Very clean, nicely decorated and had all the cooking items we needed. We were in Indio for a lax tournament. We choose this house so we could ride bikes to the lax tournament. Our only issue is that the house doesn't come with a transponder so you are required to go to the main gate every time you enter/leave- which is far from the house. This added significant time to get to the fields. Once we realized that we were able to adjust planning but would have been nice to know ahead of time. We would stay there again even knowing the transponder issue and neighborhood access requirements.

Great place!

We were 3 families (5 adults, 3 teenage girls) here for a lacrosse tournament. There were enough beds for everyone and the house +casitas were lovely. I thought the beds were very comfortable. The house was just as advertised. We took advantage of the spa, the bikes, and pickle ball courts, as well as the easy walking/driving distance to the fields. That was particularly great for the early morning games. The only slightly annoying part is that the closest gate to 50th Ave does not have a walk through gate for pedestrians and cars need a transponder to exit/enter, which I am assuming is restricted to residents. I wish that there was a way to at least walk/bike through the gate without waiting for a car. I believe other reviewers had mentioned this so I knew what to expect. Otherwise, it was usually fine to enter/exit through the main gate, but it did get backed up the first night we were there and it took us 20 minutes to drive through the front gate after going to Walmart to get groceries. On Sunday, the Lifestyle Center closed early, which we didn't know, but fortunately there were some very nice people with extra paddles who shared with us when we went in the afternoon. The coffee pot was broken by previous renters and the replacement had not come in yet and there was a Keurig but no pods. Unfortunately I didn't know that before I went to the grocery store. Tiffany, the owner, was very responsive and I appreciated her communication. Overall, a great place to stay

So-So Property

Nicely decorated as seen in the photos. Kitchen stocked adequately but cooking supplies dis-shoveled and thrown in drawers. Food and crumbs in the utensil drawers and food stuck on dishes. I had to rewash when we arrived. The outdoor furniture is very run down and poor quality. The couch pictured is actually pieces that slide easily when sitting on them and constantly have to be adjusted. Two beach chairs that look like they had been sitting in the sun for 10 years were included in seating option on the deck (I thought they were accidentally left behind they were in such poor quality). A 200lb person sat in it and the seat tore out. We were charged for both chairs. The owner markets the activity center as an amenity available for their guests, but fails to mention for only up to four guests (the home sleeps 10). The pool and hot tub can not both be heated so you will need to decide which one you want warm and coordinate with owner for heating, just FYI. I was disappointed with the lack of access to the main streets from this home's location. It's at the very back of the complex and over a mile to the front entrance. LONG wait times to go through the security gate at the front entrance to the complex with cars backed up into the intersection. The surrounding amenities are tired looking.

Family trip to Indio / Palm Springs

Beautiful home & better home owners! Tiffany & her husband were beyond helpful & an absolute pleasure to deal with every time. Every room in the house was gorgeous, the kids LOVED being in the backyard pool everyday & the built-in BBQ was also a huge plus! It was so nice having more than enough room for the 7 of us to enjoy our meals whether we wanted to eat in the dining room or at the table outside. This was the first VRBO I’ve ever rented & we couldn’t have asked for a better house than The Golden Spot. It was perfect for our family! We had 5 adults & 2 kids staying there & it never felt crowded. Great having big screen TVs in the living room & every bedroom with Roku & cable TV - fast wifi as well! It was also really nice to be in a gated community - safe, quiet, no vehicles flying by any of the houses at any time. So happy we chose this house. You won’t regret it!! We would love to stay here again next time we’re in Palm Springs / Indio!

Wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday!!

In this crazy 2020 Thanksgiving year, it was so refreshing to stay at the Golden Spot. Although not all family members could make it out to Indio, the house was spotless and the check-in was so simple. House sits on the 4th hole of the golf course and got in 3 rounds during the holiday week. Tiffany was easy to contact and responded quickly to any questions. Read the guest binder and all the info is there. Grocery stores and costco nearby and we literally ordered out twice. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans that you ever needed that cooking was a breeze. Made use of the grill on several occasions and relaxed in the pool. There's both a table that seats 5, plus patio furniture to relax and enjoy the view of the golf course or mountains with use of the outdoor wood burning fireplace. Had access to 4 bikes and 2 razors/scooters and routinely rode thru the neighborhood. Residents in gated community were friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be back. Couldn't have asked for better hosts. Thanks Tiffany & Sean!!

Friends getaway

We loved it. It was perfect for the friends who just wanted to unwind and getaway. The kitchen was welled supplied and great for someone who enjoys to cook. The casita was a bonus for us since it provided one person who unfortunately had to work and a comfortable work space and privacy. The house is just as described and we loved the outdoor space since it is covered, has ceiling fans, lots of nice seating, and a view of the mountains. It felt spiritual for one friend and definitely comfy and homey to all of us. It was great place to go relax and we definitely would go back again.
