This was a three night stay nested into a road trip around California and was booked well in advance of our departure from the UK. Prior to arrival, I was provided with the pass codes to enter the main gates and the Villa which removed the need for keys and cards and found this system worked very well. There was ample free parking outside the gates of the property which is located in a nice quiet residential area and you do need your code to enter the gate to the property. We were staying in Villa 4 which transpired had a bit of history and on entering was impressed at how management has been able to retain the character of the villa while still being able to provide modern essential elements such as flat screen TV's in the lounge and bedroom, effective air con (which was desperately needed during our stay there due to the hot desert climate) and kitchen appliances - the large fridge being a great asset for keeping your drinks cool. A welcome pack of snacks was provided on arrival with a booklet of information offering all the information you need. We had a patio with table and chairs provided and an area with a fire pit and whirlpool to the side of the villa - both totally exclusive to us however, there was a nice communal area where a fire pit was available and of course the pool with a barbecue provided for those who needed one. The grounds were immaculately maintained and there was even a fruit picker on a pole to take the citrus fruit from the trees on the property. I am a very light sleeper and any noise will awaken me, however, that was certainly not an issue here and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was fitted with both a tub and a shower and the kitchen had everything you need with respect to appliances and pans, cups, cutlery etc. The location was ideal as it was only a short walk into the town and I noticed that some guests arrived by taxi, however, having a car as we did, allowed us to travel to out of town supermarkets for supplies but if you don't have a car, you will be fine. Sitting in your own private area under the orange trees with a cold glass of wine with humming birds and butterflies for company was bliss - and the silence was a joy to behold. This stay was such a welcome change from chain hotels that lack character and charm and my only regret was that we didn't allocate more time in Palm Springs to enjoy more time at the Andalusian Court. On our return home, I received an Email from management thanking us for our stay and was asked to respond if we could suggest any improvements that may enhance the experience. The reality was that we couldn't - only just keep on doing what you are doing! A great experience.
