Our upstairs villa sits in the heart of Legacy Villas, overlooking the beautifully landscaped main promenade and its center fountains. Our southwest-facing balconies have serene mountain views where golden glow sunsets light up the hillsides every evening. It feels like you’re in the middle of a cute European village, where all your cares are miles away.

If this is your first time visiting Legacy Villas in La Quinta, California, we welcome you to our exclusive, family-friendly, condo community with 24-hour security at the main entrance. Guests can choose between twelve (12) salt-water pools and eleven (11) hot tubs spread throughout 40 acres of landscaped grounds with sparkling fountains, rosemary bushes, palm trees, citrus trees, bougainvillea archways, geraniums, and flowering desert cacti. This is a lovely home base to all happenings in the greater Palm Springs area, where hummingbirds greet you in the morning, and the grounds are accessible only to those on the Legacy Villas guest list. Since our unit is closer to the front of the community, you’re just a 1-2 minute walk to the popular main clubhouse and pools.

OUTDOOR BALCONIES - Enjoy your morning coffee outside. Relax on our main patio’s outdoor couch while listening to the soothing sounds of the fountains below. Or put your feet up on the ottoman while snoozing on the matching armchair. Set your snacks on the large coffee table, or dine al fresco at the patio table. Cook up your favorite BBQ on the Charbroil Infrared Grill.

LIVING ROOM - Watch your favorites on our 59” wall-mounted TV, while stretched out on our over-sized, super cushy L-shaped couch. On cooler evenings, warm up next to the one-touch gas fireplace. An oversized coffee table welcomes everyone to gather round.

We named our unit Fontaine du Soleil because from our balcony you can see the sun sparkle on the fountains below, while sunrays equally light up the mountains above. Our place is low-key, a hideaway designed for the ease of resort-living. You could sit on our balcony all day and just watch the sun move across the sky. The unit is ideal for those looking for an escape to simpler times, where books were more prevalent than smartphones, and conversation did not happen over texts, but over a glass of fine wine.
