Marriott's Shadow Ridge - The Villages Reviews & Ratings

I've stayed in several Marriott Vacation Club properties across the US, but Shadow Ridge is my absolute favorite. We went for the Coachella Music Festival in 2021 and the resort was perfectly located. In fact, several guests were there just for the festival, and we made many new friends! We stayed an extra day to take advantage of their 3 pools and the activities. Furthermore, the staff could not have been more pleasant to deal with. It was also the cleanest resort I've ever stayed.

This is a must stay for any vacation getaway, but a no brainer for Coachella!

Great pools and large rooms. Excellent resort !!

This is a very nice and clean resort. There is a lot to do and enjoy. April is a great time of the year to go to Palm Desert, California.

Our family has been coming here annually, for the last 18 years! It’s a beautiful location, with great golfing. The villas are really nice, with comfortable beds and the pools and grounds are pristine. The staff are friendly and professional.

We love all the local conveniences and activities, too!

Beautiful views. Located close to the large JW Marriott. Lots of nice restaurants in area.
