What's Provided at Sunshine Suites, and What to Pack
Home / Plan Your Stay › What's Provided
Sunshine Suites is set up so a big group can show up and settle in without hauling a carload of gear. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, the beds are made with linens, towels are out, and the laundry is in the house. Here is the honest list of what is provided so you know exactly what to pack and what you can leave at home.
The short version
- Kitchen: fully equipped, cook for the whole group
- Bedrooms: linens and towels provided
- Laundry: washer and dryer in the house
- Outside: private hot tub and fire pit
- Bring: groceries, toiletries, sunscreen
What is provided, and what should you bring?
Most of the big stuff is already here, so your packing list is mainly food and personal items. Here is the side-by-side.
| Provided in the home | Bring with you |
|---|---|
| Full kitchen, cookware, dishes, and utensils | Groceries and any special ingredients |
| Bed linens and bath towels | Personal toiletries beyond a starter set |
| Washer, dryer, and basic laundry supplies | Sunscreen and after-sun for the desert |
| Wi-Fi, smart TVs in every bedroom and both living rooms, central air and heat | Pool and beach towels for day trips |
| Private hot tub and fire pit | Any baby gear or medical items you need |
Is the kitchen fully equipped?
Yes. The kitchen has a full refrigerator, a range and oven, a microwave, and a dishwasher, plus a second full-size refrigerator in the garage for drinks and big-group groceries, and enough pots, pans, dishes, and utensils to cook and serve a group of sixteen. The dining table seats everyone at once. For a big family or a reunion, cooking a few meals in the house instead of eating out every night is where the real savings show up. The full amenity list is on amenities and what’s included.
Are linens and towels provided?
They are. Every bed is made up with linens before you arrive, and bath towels are set out in the bathrooms. You will want to bring your own towels for the resort pool and day trips so the bath towels stay in the house. There is a washer and dryer on site, so you can pack lighter and do a load mid-trip.
What do you really need to pack?
Keep it simple: groceries, personal toiletries, sunscreen, and anything specific to your crew like baby gear or medications. The desert sun is strong, so sun protection and a refillable water bottle for everyone are the two things people most often wish they had brought. For grocery runs, Harmon’s is just minutes away, covered on our things to do guide.
What resort amenities can you use?
Your stay includes access to the Paradise Village resort amenities, including the Kid’s Cove lazy river and splash pad and the heated pools and hot tubs, all about a hundred steps from the door. You do not need to bring anything for those beyond swimsuits and towels. See the full resort rundown on the Paradise Village guide.
