They were so wonderfully nice, gracious, and super accommodating! From the initial stages, Kerry was just so great to work with! She was never pushy and was always upfront when it came down to cost for our wedding. Since we didn't have a redonkulous amount of money to spend, Kerry really made sure that we worked within our budget. Not once did we feel pushed to spend more so that we could have a more "perfect" wedding. We really appreciated how she helped us throughout the entire planning process from the menu selection right down to the minutiae detail. She even recommended our uber fabulous florist, Gregory from My Little Flower Shop, who also helped make our wedding a beautiful, success! Our wedding was great!! The space looked awesome! Food was amazing! Sangria was kick-ass! Everyone had such a GREAT time!! Thank you for the great memories Palm Valley!! We wish you nothing but the best!!

This review is for the only restaurant there at the golf club…read more Terrible, terrible, terrible for the food and services and ambiance. We were invited by a friend to this so call private golf club to eat. There were literally teenagers working there. The way they dress, talk and no ideas on working in a restaurant or even hospitality. Food presentation was awful and the taste was dried and salty. They never came out to see what we needed. As a customer we had to constantly tell them what to do for all the basic that they should have been trained in. We order coffee. A cup was of coffee was brought out. Where is the creamer. Then creamer was brought out. Can we get a spoon to stir please. Constant back and forth. No self awareness of what is needed on the table or what goes with what. We can hear them laughing aloud in the restaurant as there were only 2 tables with customers including us. We heard recently there was a change of the executive chef, that did not help in quality of the food. But i think they need to re-evaluate the restaurant management and its priority. It appears this club and restaurant services senior people with money, and being private club on a Friday and in Pauma Valley with no nearby restaurants , except for some decent ones in the casinos, they settle for this restaurant. Truly my last time here and will let people know. Hire cooks and service people that want to be in the hospitality business. Not teenagers.

This is just awful customer service. Error on the side of the customer especially since my foursome spent nearly $1500 here today. This guy sucks. What a chump.

It made the pool experience feel extra relaxing and luxurious without breaking the bank. The lobby is absolutely beautiful, with stunning views and such a peaceful atmosphere. I noticed a lot of people working on their laptops or simply sitting back and enjoying the scenery. It's the perfect spot to unwind, get some work done, or just take in the beautiful surroundings. Overall, it's a great place to relax and enjoy a little luxury. Between the excellent service, relaxing pool area, and beautiful views, I had a great experience. I'll definitely be back!

Driving in between the palm trees and landscape is a good first impression. The hotel definitely looks outdated. The lobby is the nicest thing about this resort. Get rid of the carpet already.

I have stayed at this resort in the past (years ago) and was pretty impressed. Not this time.

They offer free breakfast and we are used to that corner set up most places do for a free breakfast. This place really did an elaborate many station breakfast bar that had everything. As we ate we saw more to try and by the end ate waaaay too much breakfast, but they did a great job and the guy keeping it running was great and super helpful. That was a nice bonus and great ending to our desert trip.

Free to visit and you can enjoy the cactus garden and wander around the gardens. Museum and gift shop as well as cafe is on sites. But this visit, we took the tour of the Annenberg property. Tour is about 90 min and about 60.00 per person. They do recommend you come a little early to view and enjoy the main building where the cactus garden was but we were a little behind and made it right before the tour started. The tour host 7 person per guided tours. We start off at check in and then met with our guide, Hema. At the beginning you start off on the golf carts where your guide gives you an introduction to the family and the property. The gate into the main residence is around the corner from the public property. It's amazing to see how someone turned a barren desert landscape into an oasis. The brief cart ride to main door was quite nice. A massive golf property hidden in the desert. Once you approached the main property, it's welcomed by a massive water feature. A knock on the double doors lead you into the lobby of the house. Just walking into the property, it's a true MCM oasis. To find out the property only has just the primary bedroom was insane as it was massive. Theres no picture allowed inside but outside was fine. Hema, very detailed in everything she explained was very sweet and detail oriented. Walking through the different rooms and seeing all the amazing things collected by both Walter and Leonore Annenberg was quite interesting. The office which house all of Walter's work, pictures of family, friends and political figures. The different room that's in the main house, their amazing artwork which some are the original pieces. Then you have the way they lived, very elegantly. Each room had their own unique style. The designer and architect sure had their hands full with detail designed of everything on site. The furniture, one of a kind design with amazing embroidery. Walter had an amazing collection of artwork and sculptures. Seeing them throughout the house and the way it was displayed in different room of the house was spectacular. Even the kitchen was nice. Still fully functional as it's still used for summits. The outside alone is one in a million. The massive property with many lakes that is fully stocked for fishing. The golf course which is a golfers heaven. And then you have the pool with a million dollar view of the mountains as the backdrop. Not only the main house, there's the guest house which is utilized for guest. And they're know by different color rooms. And by that, it's fully decorated in the color palette. That building also all looks out to the pool and mountain. Leonore, with her favorite color yellow also had a rose garden designed in the property. The tour lets you inside the lives of the Annenberg and the amazing lives they've lived. Housing major political figures, celebrities and the amazing parties had. The massive art collection and endless photos of everyone, it was a sight to see. This is a tour worth checking out and learning about the Annenberg. Plus, Hema our tour guide was excellent.

It's conveniently located to the slopes and to downtown. Parking is easy. The house has always been clean when we arrive and check in is easy as well. The bedrooms are each equipped to sleep a full young family and there are plenty of towels, sheets, and blankets. The best part is the entertainment options. It's not an empty house. You walk in and there are things to do from little kid toys, to arcades, and a pool table. TV works well and the couches are comfortable. Would highly recommend this cabin for 2-3 families comfortably. 4th family could work also if people are ok sleeping on the couches. (I would be!)

I have only been here almost a dozen times but each time we leave feeling better than we entered. Want to know why? Because we laughed so hard and shed some tears in the process. We were fortunate enough to have seen the Christmas show with Jeff's daughter. It was such a wonderful show with her pianist and saxophonist accompanying her and multiple costume changes. We also enjoyed seeing her father perform. I must say I look for the shows where it's mainly Jeff Hobson performing because he is so funny, so talented, and he has such incredible timing with quick wit that it literally tickles my brain. Arrive an hour prior to the show and enjoy the entertainment in the lobby. You can order something to drink from the bar. Just make sure you've made dinner plans before or after the show as there's no food available. You will be treated to either musical talent or magical talent prior to the main show in the auditorium. Choose the front row if you REALLY want to participate. Great for celebrating special occassions.

When I heard they would be at Marvyn's, I made sure to secure tickets. The theater is nicely laid out and makes for an intimate experience. They have entertainment before the start of the show and an amazing bar. I believe this show was sold out. In the seating area they have hilarious sayings on the screen over the stage. Wish I could remember them. Photography is forbidden in the theater. Anyhow, they are true entertainment professionals and know how to work the room. There were several things they did that we had our mind boggled. But we're the types who don't want to find out and rather like keeping the mystery intact. Amazing really doesn't begin to describe their show. We were beyond impressed. They kind and gracious to do a meet & greet after the show. It was a most enjoyable and magical evening!

It provides a fun challenge while still being open and forgiving enough to make the round enjoyable for golfers of different skill levels. The outside staff were attentive and did a great job keeping groups on schedule for their tee times. The practice facilities were also in outstanding condition and made for a great warm-up before the round. Bad: The beverage cart only came by once before going in for the day. While it appeared the attendant was covering both courses, we teed off before 10 a.m., so another pass would have been appreciated. There also didn't appear to be any marshals on the course. We found ourselves waiting on a twosome ahead of us several times but we still finished ahead of schedule so not the biggest issue, but it did impact the pace of play. Additionally, there were kids fishing near multiple tee boxes and lakes along the course, occasionally standing close to the line of play, which raised some safety concerns.
