Living in La Quinta
Prestigious hillside golf community with mountain views.
What it's like
La Quinta is a gated world unto itself. Set in the foothills with views to the coast and mountains, it has its own golf course, clubhouse, restaurants, and spa. The development is beautifully maintained with mature gardens and a real community among residents. Properties range from apartments near the golf course to spectacular villas with panoramic views. It's quiet, secure, and exclusive. The lifestyle centres around the club, golf, tennis, and socialising with neighbours. If you want to be in the middle of things, this isn't for you. If you want a private retreat with good facilities, it's excellent.
