Guests are welcome to have mail or packages delivered to the property during their stay; however, deliveries are made at the guest’s own risk. The host/owner is not responsible for any lost, delayed, or undelivered mail or packages.

Please note that the property’s mailing address is typically forwarded to an offsite location, which may cause delays or affect deliveries. Because of this, we highly recommend guests either hold their mail at the nearest post office or rent an Amazon Locker for a more secure and reliable option.

• No Refund – Cancellations made within 30 days of check-in are non-refundable.

Because life is unpredictable, we strongly encourage all guests to purchase travel insurance to protect their investment. Once a reservation is confirmed, we offer guests the option to purchase travel insurance, which can provide coverage in the event of unforeseen circumstances.

Please note that we must adhere to our cancellation policy since the property is reserved exclusively for each guest, making it unavailable to others. If you have existing travel insurance through a provider or credit card, we recommend reviewing your coverage.

We appreciate your understanding and look forward to hosting you! If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.

We loved our stay at The Yucca. Once you enter the gate you’re in your own private oasis. The pool and spa were a big part of us choosing the location but the fact that it held all of our guest comfortably was the biggest reason. All the rooms are just like the pictures and the kitchen is great though it could’ve had more supplies such as plates and utensils since it does sleep 16 people. There are two BBQ’s but we were not able to locate the utensils (We did not ask the host where they were and should have). I would’ve like to have an indoor “living room” instead of an office space, we made do outside on the patio area. One safety thing I feel I need to point out is in the main house there are two steps, one from the kitchen to the office area and one to the bedrooms. These steps are the same tile as the floor and several of my guest almost fell because they couldn’t see the step going up or down. We will definitely be booking this hotel in the future.

Thank you for your feedback, Lisa. We're pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay at The Yucca and appreciated the privacy and comfort it offers for large groups. We value your suggestions about kitchen supplies and the layout, as well as the safety concern with the steps; we will certainly look into these. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future!

We had 11 guests across 2.5 weeks to house, so this property was a no brainer. What an AMAZING AND PERFECT property for large groups! We felt secluded within the property which was a great privacy and safety feature. The hosts are incredibly communicative and respond quickly to any and all messages. Every single room felt like home and was thoughtfully curated around the needs of guests. I cannot rave about this property enough! The perfect blend of a hotel with having your own rooms and private spaces, but the comfort of an airbnb with being able to gather in the main house kitchen or around the jacuzzi. Will have this place bookmarked forever!!

We would love to welcome you back anytime you wish to stay again.

Beautiful Location for Small Party or Wedding
Great property and staff. Please note that the first key has the keys to the deadbolts. First keypad had issues, but you can use the manual keys. Second deadbolt wouldnt open, so we went in through the first room adjoing area. You should be fine after that. that

Friends trip
The property is very spacious and the pool was amazing. The rooms are quite nice. The best ones were the outside facing rooms on the left side of the property.

We loved our stay at this beautiful property. It boasts a stunning main house with three bedrooms and five additional independent rooms, each with its own bathroom and kitchen. The pool and hot tub were fantastic, and we ended our last night around the fire pit making s’mores—a perfect setup for a group getaway!
A few things to note: there isn’t a traditional living room or cozy communal area for evening relaxation, just a dining table. Additionally, the house lacked some basic supplies; we had to purchase items like dishwasher pods, sponges, salt, and oil, which are typically provided in an Airbnb—so plan for a quick grocery run if you stay here.
We had some maintenance issues: a bathroom door didn’t open at check-in and the management company fixed it promptly sending a technician. We also encountered an issue with the alarm going off at night, which the management company couldn’t resolve over the weekend. That disrupted our sleep for two nights. Request the alarm to be disarmed!

Great Desert Sanctuary
Our stay at the Yucca Hotel Villa was absolutely perfect for our family getaway. The property was even more spacious than we expected and matched the photos perfectly. With a group of 16, we found there was plenty of room for everyone. All the rooms were clean and roomy, and the fully stocked kitchen and large living room in the main house comfortably accommodated the entire group for meals and entertainment. The highlight of the property was definitely the pool and BBQ area. The pool was a refreshing escape from the desert heat, and the BBQ space was large enough to prepare and serve everything we brought. Check-in was a breeze, although we did have a minor hiccup initially when the keys weren't in the original lockbox. However, APEK Rentals was incredibly responsive and quickly helped us resolve the issue. We also encountered a couple of minor problems—one of the AC units leaked, and a lock on one of the outside rooms wasn’t working. Despite these small issues, the overall experience was fantastic, and APEK's excellent communication more than made up for any inconvenience. Our family will definitely return to this wonderful place, and we highly recommend the Yucca Hotel Villa for any large group looking for an amazing getaway.

We were pretty excited about finding the Yucca Hotel - but it even exceeded our expectations! What a gem of a place! The grounds are much larger than the pictures make you think, the rooms were generous and well appointed, and the BBQs area as well as the kitchen and dining area inside the House was perfect for meals with our whole group of friends! We had a fantastic time, APEK rentals team was super responsive and took great care of us, including recommendations for things to do and options to augment our stay (hired chefs, poolside service, or massages - you name it they've got it!). We will definitely come again. Thank you APEK!
