Out of the dozen+ properties we have stayed at in La Quinta and surrounding areas, this was by far the best one.
The view is literally perfect, the hot tub fits 6+ comfortably, and the bedroom/bed set up allows for a group of 10 (3 sets of couples) to be super comfortable. The kitchen was the best stocked we have seen - including a full spice rack and pretty much every skillet, blender, and dish you could think of (not to mention excellent glass tumblers for drinks).
We ran into a couple of issues and the Avant Stay folks were super responsive and resolved everything.
Of note, we ended up having our rental car die in the driveway the day we were checking out (really!), and the Avant Stay manager was incredibly understanding as we dealt with some ineptitude from Avis - he even was there the next day to let meet the two truck at the security gate.
Overall, would honestly give this place 5+ stars if possible, especially in a day and age where service quality seems to be on the decline.
