Avalon House - Mid Mod Hues and Mountain Views

This house was absolutely perfect! We stayed here early June- hot and sunny in the desert meant for lots of time in the pool! My kids and I loved the pool and the house - it was absolutely perfect for our “do nothing, hangout in the pool everyday” vacation! Communication with the property manager was excellent, they were so easy to work with and very responsive and accommodating! 10 out of 10 would stay here again!

The Avalon House is the best in every way. We will only stay at the Avalon House when we come back to Palm Springs. Let’s keep this gem a secret. A special home. The Best.

We had a great mini vacay in Palm Springs. Location of the house is excellent, close to downtown, very quiet and safe feeling though that area is fairly windy. Listing is exactly as shown but furnishings are starting to show wear. Definitely style over comfort for living areas that look great but aren’t particularly comfortable. Beds were very comfortable and had great sleeps! Outdoor furniture is showing a lot of wear from the sun/wind. Pool is lovely but chilly if you don’t pay for heating, our Canadian self’s had no issue with the temperature after busy, hot days. It had all the necessities for a short stay including ample shampoo/conditioner/body wash and soaps as well as some basics in the kitchen like coffee makings. Easy check in and out, found no reason to contact the company. I did notice that once you sign off on house rules online you can no longer access the rules and they are not posted at the house…it would have been nice to be able to look back on them if we had questions. At our previous VRBO stays there was a book/binder with all necessary information at the house. Overall excellent stay!

Yes, I understand that there was a final validation screen detailing all the fees, but what a load of garbage. They sucked us in with an equitable nightly rate, we emotionally committed, and then we were totally blind-sided with a range of fees. Why were they not contemplated in the published nightly rate? Airlines have to include all taxes, fees and add-ons, why is VRBO any different? Just pathetic. Andddddd, it sure would have been nice if the property had been honest about the fact that it was in a wind tunnel. We walked three blocks over and zero wind. This house? From 6am to sunset, the wind was so bad, we had to take down the umbrellas. Just disappointing that they didn't inform us ahead of time. Oh well, the rate was one of the better rates we found - buyer beware and when it looks too good to be true... it probably is.
