3BR Villa Mountain + Fountain Views @ Legacy Villas! #243706
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.
KITCHEN: Fully-equipped kitchen accommodates for homemade family meals. Five-burner gas stove with steam clean oven. Whirlpool Refrigerator with Ice Dispenser and Filtered Water. KitchenAid dishwasher. Granite counter-tops. Microwave. Blender, Toaster, Coffee Maker, and Teapot.
DINING AREA: Elongated Dining Table with seating for six (6). Breakfast bar provides additional counter-height seating for two (2). French doors open to the main balcony with outdoor table seating for four (4) more.
Three (3) bedrooms provide home-like comfort, and plenty of personal space for up to six (6) guests.
PRIMARY KING SUITE: King Size Bed. Private bathroom ensuite with a soaking tub and step-in shower. Desk/Workstation with laptop monitor (HDMI connect). Wetbar with mini-fridge and microwave. 32” TV with local cable. One-touch gas fireplace. Ceiling fan light. French doors open to a semi-enclosed balcony overlooking the main promenade with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. In addition to the outdoor couch on the main balcony, this personal balcony has its own loveseat with Sunbrella cushions, plus another matching armchair with ottoman. Table seating for two allows for more intimate al fresco dining.
SECONDARY KING SUITE: King size bed. Private bathroom ensuite with soaking tub and step-in shower. Laptop work-table for work/study from home. 32” TV with local cable. Partial mountain and village views. One-touch gas fireplace. Ceiling fan light.

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.

Loved this location and the space was so nice for our family. Very comfortable. Well stocked. Beautiful grounds and amenities. The place could use a deep clean in some areas but was mostly adequately clean.
We loved staying here. We are repeat customers and we look forward to staying here again on our next trip to La Quinta. Great location and very clean. Beds are very comfortable. Very pleasant stay.
This was the perfect stay for us! Great location and love the 3 full bathrooms. Communication with the owner was clear and check in / check out was a breeze. We will be back next year!

Our vacation at Legacy Villas was absolutely wonderful. The condo is so spacious, clean, and inviting. We loved the outdoor balconies, comfy couches, and fully stocked kitchen. The grounds are beautiful and we really enjoyed having so many options for pools. The gym and trail around the property are fantastic. This is a beautiful desert rental and we will be back!

Excellent residence. Excellent location for our needs.
As we like to cook fresh, it was great to find all we needed, including a few basic spices. Yea! There was also laundry soap, so we could do laundry and thus didn't need to pack as much. We would book again if we come to this area again.
The Villa is lovely and the descriptions are very accurate. Also, we enjoyed how well it was stocked. The grounds are beautiful and the location is great for us (we have a car for getting around). The communication with the host is very timely and clear.
We highly recommend the Villa and look forward to our next stay!

It was a nice condo. It was well equipped and comfortable. Unfortunately we had several maintenance-related issues during our stay. Fortunately, the condo management company was super responsive and excellent to work with. Skip from Arcadia Desert Rentals was probably the best property manager we have ever worked with during the 12 years we have been coming to La Quinta!

Thank you, Don! It was a pleasure to host you and your family this year. You were great guests.
Excellent property. All the amenities. So very comfortable. Very helpful and responsive property manager. Made everything easy from start to finish. 10/10!
We have stayed at this complex in the past, and it is always beautifully maintained! The grounds are gorgeous!The unit was as listed. Could use more towels. We were given 8 large bath towels for 6 people for 6 days. Also, only 3 hand towels. This unit doesn’t have any reserved parking spots, so had to park out on the street as was very busy during our stay and no spaces in the parking area outside of unit. Beautiful to walk around and outside of the complex.

Thank you, Deborah. This is the first time we're hearing you were short on towels during your stay. There are extras in the hallway cabinet, and our team is happy to bring extras if necessary. Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and thank you for being a great guest.
My husband, kids, and I stayed at this condo in February 2024. The condo is a top floor unit, and the stairs only led to this unit which made it feel much safer. The kitchen was well-stocked with all the essentials, and there were even a few treats in the freezer. The beds in all the rooms were amazingly soft and cozy. We loved all the different pools and especially that they were heated in February. The complex itself is beautifully landscaped. It was only a quick walk to the La Quinta resort for dinner. Overall a great place and we plan on staying here again.
What a great place to visit when it is Very cold and snowy in other parts of the country. If you like golf, tennis, pickleball, hiking, relaxing this is a great place.
We had a few glitches but the manager (Skip) was excellent in getting them repaired, we even received a new refrigerator 3 days before Christmas - amazing service.
The Condo was comfortable and plenty large for 5 adults and a toddler. The balcony is very toddler friendly. The amenities (pool, fitness center... ) are very nicely kept and not too busy. The entire complex is clean and well landscaped. We would definitely stay here again in the future.
What a wonderful place to escape the Midwest winter! Centrally located near Palm Desert and Palm Springs, it’s the perfect get away. The unit is amazing with so much space and having 2 king suites was perfect to travel with friends. The kitchen was fully stocked and having laundry in the unit was such a help! The balconies were so beautiful, we spent so much time out there. Parking was always available in a non designated space. The unit is in a prime location of the resort just a very short walk to the wonderful pool and hammock garden. We had a small issue with being able to check in as the resort had our dates wrong, but the issue was quickly fixed. (Thanks Skip!) This was our first visit to the LaQuinta area, and we will definitely be back! Thank you for having us!
Love Legacy Villa, this unit was perfect for our stay, close to the pool and La Quinta resort. Condo was well stocked and had everything we needed. Property manager was very responsive, will stay here again.

Thank you, Noah! Glad to hear the villa was perfect for your group.
The property was awesome. Location was superb. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this Villa. We can’t wait to return again next year!
My wife and I were looking for a relaxing vacation with our newborn and this experience exceeded our expectations. We stayed for a week and would highly recommend the experience to our family and friends. Skip was great with communication, the unit was well stocked, the grounds and pool were immaculate, and the furniture was a perfect fit for the space.

Thank you, Bradley! We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and that the villa exceeded your expectations.
The unit and property amenities at Legacy Villas were better than expected. On previous visits to La Quinta we have stayed in a single family residence so I wasn't certain how I would feel about shared pools and facilities. The grounds were beautiful, we were never without a pool to go to and relax. Since we were a group of adults we never tried the main pool but enjoyed several of the satellite pools also the hammock garden and the chairs at the outdoor fireplace. The grill located onsite was good, hopefully as things return to normal the operating hours at the grill will be extended. Thank you for your hospitality our stay exceeded our expectations and we hope to return again.

Why they chose this property
We loved Legacy Villas from the start. Not only is it a 24-hour guard gated resort community, it has 12 pools, 11 spas, and 19 fountains spread out among beautifully landscaped and manicured grounds. While it may feel like an escape and "away from it all," convenient shopping and restaurants can be found just minutes from the main gate. You can have serenity here if you want, but if you have kids, there are plenty of kid-friendly amenities as well.
