From check in to check out went smoothly . The place was clean and had everything I needed. Staff was friendly. Loved the rooftop chill area and the washer & dryer in room. I’ll definitely stay here again next time I’m in town.

The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert
Rooms are very spacious, there are plenty of activities for adults and kids; however, we booked it thinking it is a Marriott resort; it turned out it is a timeshared property; which is a bit disappointing given how much we paid per night!
