A good choice.

My wife and I stayed for 2 weeks in November and found the place clean and comfortable. It should appeal to a senior couple looking for a quiet, warm and sunny getaway. Having 2 bedrooms and bathrooms is a bonus. There is plenty of room for two people, the kitchen has most of the essentials and a huge modern fridge. The washer and dryer was great. And the gated community has lots of green areas and pools- one just steps from the back patio. Several choices for grocery stores are about 10 minutes away. A car is needed. The community is really nice for daily walks but there are no services within walking distance. The garage and driveway are pretty tight, so ask about that if you have a larger car. You should also be aware of the noise and partying restrictions. There are lots of walking/hiking trails; also restaurants and art stores/galleries in the area. It's a bit on the expensive side in regard for food prices but we found it convenient and comfortable to buy and cook our own. If you like a good kitchen knife, you may want to pack your own as no condo or vrbo ever provides good knives (perhaps for safety). Also a sleep mask for the second bedroom, which gets sunny early. Overall, this place provides a great home away from home. Here we were able to pick ripe grapefruit right off the tree by the back patio. Pretty sweet.

Home Away from Home

This was our second stay at this property. We chose it again because of its location, practical imenities and value for the cost. A pool right off your patio? Citrus trees ripe for the picking? Comfortable beds and accommodations, this property just says "welcome home." We will definitely book again when we return to Palm Desert.

Very Nice

This is a 2 bedroom 2 bath unit very near the spa and pool, which is very convenient. Beautiful scenery and landscaping. Michelle was very communicative and helpful. The unit does not get a lot of direct sunlight, which keeps it cool. Big TV's in all rooms makes it easy to relax. Ironwood is a beautiful community, fun to walk around. The location is terrific, near lots of shopping, restaurants and golf.

The condo is close by all the restaurants and shops on el Paseo but in a beautiful very private neighborhood. We will be staying again. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed!

Home Away from Home

During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have tried a variety of approaches to feel safe and comfortable when traveling, including B & Bs and hotels. Yet, it was our visit to Michelle's Palm Desert home where we truly felt like it was a "home away from home." Michelle's communication was impeccable and prior to our stay, we had a lovely conversation about the house and nearby sites and attractions. Once we arrived, everything was just as she had described and what we had read in prior reviews - clean, quiet and lovely furnished in a wonderful area. We loved the flexibility of being able to fix our own meals in Michelle's very well equipped kitchen. The notebook she prepared was comprehensive and informative! My sister was able to visit us during our stay and the extra bedroom with its own bathroom on the other side of the house was perfect. We are so appreciative of all of Michelle's efforts and look forward to a future visit.

Beautiful Setting In Ironwood CC

We were two couples on a golfing trip sharing this large 2 bed/2bath condominium in Ironwood CC for 10 days. Ironwood CC is a beautifully maintained and secured private area with impeccable grounds. It features wide roads with a variety of places to walk and jog. Michelle's condo was a perfect size featuring a single car enclosed garage (big enough for our rented SUV), a large kitchen, dining room and spacious living room area (with two large couches surrounding a large screen tv). Both bedrooms featured king beds and separate bathrooms. From the condo patio it was only about 10 steps to the hot tub/pool area. Her patio had a very nice table/chairs for morning dining and two large cushioned loungers. There was also a washer/dryer in a large laundry/storage room and we found the kitchen well stocked with pots, pan, silverware, cooking utensils, glassware, coffee maker, toaster oven and toaster, and a nice refrigerator/freezer with ice-maker. Michelle was so kind and responsive to any questions prior to our arrival. Check in was simple via a digital lock. We had absolutely zero issues and found our stay to be very peaceful and all that was promised on the web site. This location (at Ironwood) is so convenient since you are up from the valley a couple of miles in a very upscale area. You are within a five-minute drive to El Paseo and about 20 minutes to the airport and slightly less to LaQuinta. You are also within 15 minutes of some of the valley's nicest golf courses, restaurants and shopping. Thank you Michelle for all you did to accommodate our rescheduling of our visit to your place. It was wonderful!

PERFECT GETAWAY - FANTASTIC CONDO!

Highly recommend this condo for many reasons! First of all Ironwood is an absolutely beautiful gated community that is spotlessly clean, immaculately landscaped and full of friendly people. The rental condo was of exceptional value as it was spacious, well stocked, nicely decorated, had amazingly comfortable beds and was within steps of the private and quiet pool. Michelle, the owner, was incredibly easy to communicate with and quick to respond to any questions we had while we were there. Thanks for a perfect getaway Michelle! We'll be back!!

Nice place, read on.

We arrived late and tired but the checkin process was quick and easy. Access to the villa through the one car garage was easy once we got in. One in our party started sneezing soon after our arrival but it wasn't until the end of our stay that we realized that the cause could have been the villa and not the change in climate, region of the country, or a contraction of a germ from the airplane. Upon investigation and after struggling with the furnace cover door (not wanting to break anything) we found that the filter was very dirty and was not the right size for the furnace! There was a lot of dust and dirt circulating through the cheap air filter and the gaps due to the fit of the wrong sized filter. The villa had just been cleaned so we found it to be a neat, clean, and comfortable place for an older unit. There were plenty of pillows on the beds which were comfortable and plenty of towels for the bath and pool. The hot tub and pool were right outside the living room door; very convenient! There were also some changes in the way the contract read and the instructions provided vs. what we found so, it was a little confusing. We liked the area and it was in an upscale neighborhood that made us feel confortable and safe.

About the host

Hosted by Michelle

I love Palm Desert. Nature, Flowers, native plants & trees...Majestic mountains all around... All of that beauty, along with Shops/ Boutiques, Art Galleries, Museums, Theater, Restaurants, the Living Desert, Hiking Trails, and El Paseo is wonderful.

Also, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Jensen's for grocery shopping as well as department stores and malls are just a few minutes down the hill from where we are.

Ironwood is a very clean, manicured and safe environment where one feels wonderful looking at incredible mountains around us, and amazing landscaping throughout our community. Walking and wandering on the quiet streets of Ironwood day or night, or on El Paseo, as well as local hikes in wilderness: a lot of fun !

Relaxing by the Pool and Jacuzzi or just lounging on the Daybed of our large covered patio feels great as well :)

Why they chose this property

The Zen Pool Villa is a one story, end unit attached Garden Villa. It is located just a few steps from the jacuzzi and pool. Unless on busy Holidays and weekends, the pool and spa are not used very much, and feel like they are there just for you :)

The covered patio is deep and long and allows relaxing in the fresh air, protected from the sun and the elements. Daybed for two people, as well as an outdoor table and chairs for 4.

What makes this property unique

The Ironwood Country Club offers unparalleled beauty - flowers, plants, trees. Very well maintained grounds, and wide streets meandering through the neighborhood. It is very clean, and serene, and safe. Beautiful walks, and a lovely Meditation Garden. Private and quiet, due to being behind the gates at Ironwood. Minutes to El Paseo, and yet away from the noise of shops, restaurants, galleries, museums and the Living Desert. 20 mns from all the fun in Palm Springs. Pool and Jacuzzi are heated from October 25 to May 25.

Set against the mountains, it feels like being in nature, and yet very civilized and comfortable.
