Desert Color - Housing development in St. George - 729 W Claystone Dr, USA

We really enjoyed it here as we visited the nightly rental community. Beautiful interior finishes. The pool area is impressive and the lagoon was perfect for paddleboards. Really cold though. There lots of construction so very ready for the pounding. Overall, if your traveling and vacationing, this is a great place to stay. There are also areas within the development that are full full time residences. You can't just rent out anywhere so make sure you know which areas to buy in.

Obsessed with this place! We take multiple trips here each year. Services, accommodations, & fun get better each time we go. They do movies, crafts, & so much more at the common areas. Check their FB page for updates when these happen. This place is such a vibe. Pools heated year round. Lagoon is not but during summer months my kids love the paddle boarding, beaches, & snow cones. Definitely try lodging here at least once to experience it for yourself.

Visited some family who had just moved into Desert Color and stayed for a few days. While I won't be buying here myself, I can give a neutral assessment on the community. The variety of builders in Desert Color offers an expanded range of price points and housing styles compared with most planned neighborhoods from the condos in the $300's all the way up to multi-million dollar properties and everything in between. However, I noticed that the lots are on the small side considering the square footage of the homes. The Lagoon (huge!!) and pool area was impressive and surely a big selling point but I can only imagine how crowded it will get when the neighborhood is built out and shared with hundreds more residents. The lagoon is not heated either and was cold even on a 100 degree day. A restaurant/eatery and a small convenience store would make a quality addition to this central gathering point of Desert Color, which still feels like it's missing something. Cell phone service was unreliable and I'm on a major network carrier- guessing the local infrastructure still needs upgrading. The other negative that was glaringly obvious to me is that there is almost no retail within a 10-15 minute drive of this community, so you're going to spend a lot of time in the car if you live here. It may take a decade for good quality amenities to catch up with the growth on the south end of Saint George so that would definitely be something to keep in mind unless you're planning to live here a long time.

We did a little getaway with just two of us and rented a condo/townhouse in Desert Color. It was definitely plenty of space and would be perfect to bring our family back to. Everything was really clean. The kitchen was stocked extremely well! The pillows were perfect. The upstairs master bed was alright, not the most comfy I've slept in. The rooftop balcony was so fun with the patio furniture and fire pit. We used both. It would have been nice to have instructions for the fire pit but we figured it out. There is not much of a sound barrier between rooms, ceilings, or walls. We could hear the next door neighbors shooting the basketball game in their rec room while we were in the 2nd floor master. It was fine but it would have been nice to have more insulation. Lastly, the listing states that even though it's an active construction site, it will not impact any of the provided amenities. Well, due to a construction trench, the lagoon was closed. It was unfortunate, but we still had a pleasant stay. We would come back and love to bring our family. Just a few things we wanted to mention.

The place is quite a place, like a city into itself. The lagoon is very big, like a small lake in the middle of a city.

We were so sadly disappointed in our stay. We booked here for the lagoona for the kids and weren’t informed until after we paid and drove 5 hours to get here that it was closed. After we got here we tried to reach out multiple times to the host and no one ever responded. Our last day was Sunday so we cleaned the rooms and went to the pool for the remainder of our stay but we were promptly kicked out right at 11 (even though we were in here before) because we didn’t bring the wrist bands from the room (which we hadn’t used all weekend and no one said a word) my kids were harassed at the pool and flipped off by an adult woman who supposedly lived there. We have all reached out multiple times to have the issues we had resolved and STILL have not been responded to once. Had we known the Laguna was closed We wouldn’t have spent the insane amount of money to come out here for two nights. There has been zero communication. They told us to reach out anytime via text or call, we got lost on the way here and couldn’t get a hold of anyone to tell us how to get into our room. It’s been an absolute nightmare.

We stayed at a Desert Color condo. The community is maybe 1/3 finished. So, there’s lots of construction all around. There are no stores, restaurants, etc nearby. There is 1 gas station across I15 & DoorDash is always an option. Right now the only amenities are the pool & Lagoon, so not much for the price you’re paying. All the other resorts in SG area have much more for the same price or less. Visiting with some full-time homeowners at the pool, they mentioned the HOA is very pricey & they don’t receive much for it. They mentioned nightly rental guests receive more “attention” & they seemed a little bothered by all the nightly renters. It kind of turned us off from investing here or even wanting to purchase a primary residence here. Hopefully with time the community gets better. Parking is limited & will probably get worse as more homes/condos are finished. The condo we were in was very clean & new but there isn’t much of a sound barrier with the walls in the condos. We could hear our neighbors talking, baby crying & other neighbors building their furniture all night. I’d say the quality is similar to a Fairfield Inn or Holiday Inn Express. There were no towels available & no food options available. So, just come prepared with coolers, water, food, towels when going to the pool.

What an incredible place. The place we stayed was beautiful and my whole family fit and felt comfortable. The pool and lagoon are awesome. We loved it so much we thought it would be our go to place to visit when In St George. We even thought how great it would be to own there. There is a lot of construction right now and it's going to be huge but at this time it was great. My only fear is because there are so many homes now and will be when construction finishes that if another lagoon isn't built the current one will be so packed that the fun of it will be lost in the crowds. But for now, it was incredible and worth the stay.
