We spent a month in the unit, and found it quite comfortable. The neighborhood is fantastic, and even though we were on the golf course, it was very quiet. Thanks for a great stay!

The location is fabulous.Many very good restaurants nearby. The view is nice but all of it faces the north, so no sunshine ever shines in the unit. The unit layout is very nice and spacious, but the furniture is thin and wore out and needs updated. Great neighbor hood for daily walks.

We retreated here while our house was being worked on...a perfect get away on the 10th hole of the golf course! Everything we needed was close.You will love this get away, too!

Our condo overlooking the 11th hole of The Dunes Golf Course, also had a gorgeous mountain view. The interior was spacious with beautiful furniture. Of importance to myself was the excellent quality of the new king and queen mattresses. Also the barbecue cooked perfectly. The swimming pool is kept warm and clean and is quite private. It is a lovely quiet area and the grounds are maintained impeccably. But most important - the property manager and assistant at Royale Vacation Rentals - Tim Flynn and Dana Karr - were amazing. Every request we had was immediately attended to. They are very friendly and professional and I highly recommend Duna La Quinta and Royale Vacation Rentals to anyone.

Overall we were happy with the condo. It has a good layout with two bedrooms given privacy and adjacent bathrooms. As it faces north, the main patio is shaded, so it was a little too cool to enjoy most of the winter. The private patio on the south side made up for that, although it didn't have a view and the disintegrating plastic wicker furniture made it look a little shabby. More comfortable lounging furniture for the patios would be appreciated. The gated community was very quite with little traffic, so it was a pleasant place for walks. It was conveniently close to Old Town La Quinta. The condo was fairly well equipped, and the quality of the equipment adequate. There were some irritating omissions: the toaster oven wouldn't toast properly. It dried out the bread and took ages to brown it. There was a coffee maker that takes pods, but we don't care for that style. The regular coffee maker would MAKE coffee but not keep it warm - frustrating. There was no electric hand mixer, rolling pin, electric juicer or salad spinner, all fairly bulky items that would be unreasonable to expect a renter to supply, especially if arriving by air. As we had driven and had been given only a general idea of what would be provided, we brought a few of these things with us. All units should have electric juicers as there is so much citrus fruit in the Coachella Valley. We did ask for a tray (important to carry food and drink to the patio) and some more wine glasses and they were quickly provided. The few needed repairs were looked after quickly. There was no bin for recyclables to put streetside. That should be the responsibility of the condo owner. The living room furniture Ned's replacing It has a very thin leather covering which is disintegrating, spreading little flakes of white leather everywhere. We put a blanket over the worst. We asked but we're never told where the mailbox was, although there appeared to be a mailbox key provided.

We have been renting condos in the Coachella Valley for the last five years. We found the experience of renting from Royale Vacation Rentals to be excellent. The unit was clean and very well equipped. We are most comfortable in the Palm Desert, Indian Wells or La Quinta communities. The location of our unit was very accessible to our preferred service and material suppliers.

We truly enjoyed our "winter in the desert". Our rental in Duna LaQuinta was great. Close to the spa and pool and the town of LaQuinta, big plus. Unit was as expected and advertised with a very responsive and competent renal staff.

The weather and location couldn't be better but the furnishings were sparse and of low quality. The shower was also antiquated and difficult to turn on in the master bath. There were no chairs in bedrooms to read in or assist in dressing. The platform beds were too high and did not accommodate the sheets. It was designed to rent out and not to live in.I lived through it but wouldn't go back without changes.

We found the unit moderately well furnished and was clear that it was outfitted as rental unit and we may have been the first tenants so some breaking in things..nothing overly serious. A couple of things needed attention and Royale staff were VERY attentive and helpful in addressing our concerns. We enjoyed our stay and appreciated how we were treated.

Right from the beginning the rental process was a breeze. I received all of the financial information up front and all of my questions about the property were answered without hesitation. Weeks prior to our stay, I received an email with a link to the website detailing valuable information such as the gate key, wifi password, check in & out instructions, contact information and so forth. I appreciated the over communication as I'm definitely a planner!! The home itself was in a prime location! Literally right next to the community pool and less than a mile away from grocery stores, coffee shops, and the main La Quinta Resort where we took our shuttle each day. The home was in beautiful condition with nice kitchen appliances and tools. The only issue was the dishwasher that wasn't draining properly, but by the end of the weekend we sorted it out. In unit washer and dryer made it easy to have fresh towels and sheets each day. There is an option to book a cleaning service if desired. The rooms were very spacious and had great closet space. The master bathroom had an open shower, which at first seemed very aesthetically pleasing, but later on caused issues as the water seemed to go all over the bathroom floor and at one point leaked out the bathroom door. I would recommend that the owner install a glass door or something to catch the water. Other than minor things here or there, I would highly recommend this gated community. We felt extremely safe and had wonderful service. Can't go wrong!!
