One of the roomiest places I've ever stayed, a huge living room, good sized bedroom, and a full kitchen. I was on vacation, so I dined out for every meal, but with the kitchen and barbecue, I could have dined in. The excercise room, pool and spa were also really nice.

Single story casita/duplexes with nice patios, grassy areas, privacy, immaculate BBQs, beautiful - almost old fashioned - resort setting. Great views. The office staff and maintenance personnel are wonderful. We love this place and have been staying at Desert Isle since 2001.

Lots of room
The condo was a very large 2br/2ba unit with a lovely rooftop deck. There was a spiral staircase so I couldn’t get my luggage upstairs to take advantage of 5he upper floor bedroom with the large deck. Very unusual layout but spacious and good for our purposes. The kitchen was not very well stocked with cooking items. It has just the bare minimum. Had access to the 2 tennis courts and outdoor pool. Within walking distance to restaurants, Walgreens and grocery stores.
