Great place to stay

The owner was great to deal with, and the place itself is first rate. Some new furniture on the deck makes it the place to go to relax, do some reading, and get some sun. The landscaping with the pool in the background makes the view outstanding. Really enjoyed staying here.

Our Oasis

Comfortable, well-equipped property in great location for a relaxed stay with easy access to shops, galleries and many dining options. We love the Mid-Century Mod architecture and design with views of the beautifully landscaped garden/pool and mountains. This VRBO and its very responsive hosts made our stay most enjoyable. Hope to return again.

We had a wonderful time at Courteney’s condo. It is very clean, close to all shopping, very comfortable beds and all the amenities that you would need. Courteney is the best! She answers questions quickly and is such a pleasure to work with. This place is truly a gem.

Home away from hone

We had the best time at Courteney’s condo that we didn’t want to leave. The condo was very clean and had all the amenities that you would need. We loved the retro look and we felt right at home. The beds were so comfortable. Courteney was a very gracious host and questions were answered promptly. We can’t wait to return.

Great location.

This property is located centrally in the desert and at the end of El Paseo. We were able to walk to the restaurants which was great. The property is clean, well equipped and the beds are very comfortable. Right beside the pool which was a bonus. Sandpiper is a very quiet, relaxing property. We will definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Stay in Palm Desert

My wife and I had a wonderful 1 month stay at Courteney's in Palm Desert! The condo itself is perfect - very clean, modern, comfortable, and well appointed. The Sandpiper community itself is lovely, filled with charming architecture, beautiful landscaping, communal fruit trees, and a pristine pool right off the deck from the condo. We also loved the backdrop of the mountains, which pictures don't do justice. Courteney was an extremely responsive and courteous host, graciously accommodating a couple requests we had during our stay. We look forward to returning some day. Would highly recommend staying here!

About the host

Hosted by Courteney Andrews

Host profile image
We live in the Santa Cruz mountains where I work as a pediatric RN and my husband is a podcast host. Our two boys love coming to visit Palm Desert and it fills our hearts when we come to stay and relax in the shadows of the San Jacinto Mountains.

Why they chose this property

The desert has stolen my heart and I hope you feel the same way after staying in our mid century modern home. Our circle is known for it’s lush and mature vegetation. The flowers will never disappoint! We are also located steps away from luxury shopping and dining at the promenade on El Paseo.

What makes this property unique

The views of the sparkling pool, luscious flowers, and mountains from the front patio will take your breath away.
