About this property

CLASSIC MEETS CONTEMPORARY - Guest House in high-end Private Mini-Estate

Serene...Inspiring...Elevated...

Our unique property allows guests to adequately "social distance" from the homeowner, with exclusive use of the yard and pool during their stay. Reach out to me for further details and updates.

This 1948-built architectural home was designed by architect, Allen Siple and developed by Paul Trousdale who later went on to built Trousdale Estates in Los Angeles.. Current owner completely remodeled and expanded the residence in 2007 with an art and spa aesthetic and includes a walled compound consisting of the main home (occupied by owners) and a 650+ sq. foot detached guest house, separated by a loggia with fireplace. Known as Casa de Arte, the home and art collection has been featured in numerous publications. Ideal guest would be a seasonal renter looking for quiet enjoyment of the desert lifestyle or a visitor coming into the city for a special event like Modernism Week, Palm Springs Art Fair or Coachella Music Festival.

Our city permit number is 3113 for a "homeshare" short-term rental. The city charges a 12.5% Transit Occupancy Tax on stays less than 28 days which is collected by VRBO. Guest will sign a "Good Neighbor Brochure" when they arrive noting they will comply city City requirements including occupancy limits, noise prohibitions and vehicle parking requirement. In addition the City requires the host to make a copy of the responsible party's driver's license or other ID.

Note that the per diem rate does not include heating the pool. We will heat the spa upon request on occasion during your stay not to exceed one-hour per day. Up to one-hour per day will be gratis. Additional spa time will have a surcharge of $25/hour.

NOTE: 2 night minimum. IMPORTANT NOTE: 3 night minimum for Coachella, Stagecoach and certain holidays. There is a 5 night minimum for Modernism Week. For the high season months of January through April the MAXIMUM rental period will be for 3 consecutive weeks. (No monthly rentals for those 4 months).

Perfection in Palm Springs!
Very stylish and comfortable accommodation close to downtown Palm Springs. We had a wonderful 9 days here, enjoying the ambience and the relaxed atmosphere of this beautiful property. Our hosts, Stan and Gil were friendly and responsive, yet respectful of our privacy. Would definitely return and recommend. Dianne and John

A Place You Don’t Want to Leave
From the beautiful setting with mountains visible from the courtyard to the courtyard itself, with thoughtfully arranged artwork and azure pool, this casita was difficult to say goodbye to. We were greeted by one of our hosts who walked us through the rules of the house, made sure our every question was answered, and welcomed us into one of the more fabulous places we’ve stayed in Palm Springs. We found the carefully chosen bedding to be comfortable, the view from the bed to the pool to be stunning, and the provided robes and bath and pool linens perfect. The small kitchen had nearly everything we needed, as we were eating out with friends throughout our stay. Location: incredible. Even near downtown and busy roadways, the pool fountains and bubblers made lounging by the pool or having coffee in the art-filled loggia peaceful. And more on location: we loved hiking along the paths by Tahquitz Creek, just across the street, and going even further to hike the in-progress Prescott Preserve that’s taking over for the failed Mesquite Country Club golf course. Birding and walking to the downtown area made for nature-filled days, and mixing in some sun made it indeed difficult to say goodbye. Thank you to our fantastic hosts for our rainbow trail mix and serenading us with “Happy Trails to You” on our departure.

I would give this property 10 stars if I could!
This is a delightful property with easy access to just about anywhere you want to go in Palm Springs. The property was so nice, however, you may not want to leave. From the more than gracious hosts, to the beautiful art, to the comfy bed, there is just no reason to leave. I hesitate to leave a glowing review because I am afraid it will never be available again. Thank you Stan and Gil!

Why they chose this property

It's all about the privacy of the compound and the great resort amenities, it's architectural pedigree, as well as our location central to hiking trails and the downtown village.

What makes this property unique

Privacy behind the walls of this mini estate. Natural sun bathing permitted. Here is a recent guest review: "This guest house and property was our best ever vacation rental. The location is quiet and close to all amenities. Multiple outdoor seating options, well designed pool, perfect water temperature in the hot months, love the floating mats provided. Comfortable bed, high end linens, thick fluffy indoor and outdoor towels, well appointed kitchen. Art and sculpture was an added bonus. Hosts provided excellent dining and excursion suggestions; they did everything to make our stay exceptional. We enjoyed Palm Springs and we were definitely in a 5 or 6 star resort. Restful and relaxing 10 days and we hope to return again. We would give this vacation rental a 10 stars rating if we could!"
