About this property
Pool, Hot Tub, Al Fresco Dining, Gazebo | Pet-Friendly Desert Haven | Catalina
Welcome to Catalina, an AvantStay home!
When you’re living in Catalina you have the best of Palm Springs to yourself--an oasis inside an oasis.
The homestead’s sprawling walled backyard is sunny and warm during the day with a magical sparkle in its pool waters at night. A beautiful dining space on one side while a gazebo and barbecue grill hold it down on the other, inviting you to lounge in whatever way feels best at the moment or simply to hold court with your guests.
Catalina’s four bedrooms have all been decorated with care to strike the perfect balance between comfort and class, embracing the mid-century modern aesthetic that made the valley famous. This tasteful approach extends to the plush common areas and gleaming white bathroom fixtures. Decadent but not pretentious, just how you like it.
When you decide to venture out you’ll be thankful for Catalina’s location--close to world-class golf courses, outdoor dining, hiking trails for days, and all the best the area has to offer. AvantStay provides an upscale experience with services that elevate your stay and save time so you can enjoy every moment. Guests have access to a 24/7 support team. Whether it’s fridge stocking or in-home massages, AvantStay offers a variety of upgrades & experiences to enhance your stay.

If undisclosed pets are brought into the home without AvantStay's approval there is a fine of $500 per pet. - Per the City of Palm Springs all reservations must complete a Virtual Check-In and sign a Vacation Rental Rules Acknowledgment form prior to arrival. AvantStay will reach out to coordinate these things after you've completed your booking. - Pool heat is $150/night + tax, available upon request with at least 24-hour notice. Minimum 3 consecutive nights; must be booked for the entire stay. - Pool heat is not available between May 1 and October 1. - No outside music is allowed. - During the summer months, desert temperatures are extremely high, which may cause the pool temperature to rise as well.

This property is absolutely beautiful! Pictures don’t do it justice. It was absolutely perfect for our annual family vacation. Everyone really enjoyed their time here. Beautiful Mountain View’s. House is centrally located and close to everything you need. Our dogs loved the yard! We will definitely stay here again!

Thank you, Robin. I’m glad the property was a perfect fit for your family vacation and that everyone enjoyed the mountain views, central location, and yard for your dogs. We look forward to welcoming you again.
My family and I really enjoyed our experience at this beautiful home. It had everything we needed and more. Working with the management group was very easy and pleasant. It is a great location, just a quick drive to downtown Palm Springs. We highly recommend this home if you are looking for a quiet, relaxing and pleasant getaway.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Michelle. We're happy to hear your family enjoyed the home and found everything you needed. It’s great that the location and our team made your stay smooth and relaxing. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another getaway soon.
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home in Palm Springs. It was perfect for our family. The house was very clean, spacious, and well maintained, and the kids enjoyed having their own large rooms and privacy. We also brought our dog, and it was lovely seeing everyone enjoy the space together.Communication with the owners was excellent. They were kind, welcoming, caring, and very responsive throughout our stay, which made us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived.The kitchen had everything we needed, making it easy and comfortable for a family stay. The backyard was one of our favorite parts of the home. There was plenty of seating to relax together, and the kids loved the pool, jacuzzi, and table tennis. We did not request pool heating, but the weather was warm enough that it was not necessary. The BBQ grill and outdoor shower were also very convenient.The mountain views from the pool area were absolutely breathtaking and made the experience even more special and relaxing.The garage made parking simple and secure, and the location was excellent, close to everywhere we wanted to visit in Palm Springs. The neighborhood also felt very safe and quiet.Overall, this home truly felt warm and welcoming, more like a real home than a rental. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it to families looking for a clean, comfortable, and relaxing vacation home in Palm Springs.

What a thoughtful, detailed review — thank you so much! It's wonderful to hear the home felt like the perfect family retreat, from the spacious rooms and pup-friendly setup to all those backyard moments by the pool with those incredible mountain views. The team will be so happy to know that communication and the little details made you feel right at home. We'd love to welcome your whole crew back to Palm Springs anytime!
The home was very very clean & inviting. On arrival & we were greeted with music playing in the house, yummy gourmet popcorn & a Champagne bottle!
We enjoyed our stay!

We are thrilled you enjoyed this amazing property, Lula! You were such a pleasure to host and we would love to have you back soon!
The rental was exactly as described online. Spacious, clean, lots of room, easy check in, comfortable. We didn’t use the pool or spa…only because it was too cold and I didn’t want to pay to have it heated. It looked very nice and inviting. Maybe next time! Yes! I’d rent the house again. Made lots of fun memories on a short weekend with family.

So glad to hear the rental matched your expectations and that you had plenty of space for your family! Totally get skipping the pool and spa when it’s chilly—but sounds like it was still a great spot to make fun memories. We’d love to have you back anytime!
Great place to be with spouse and adult children to celebrate a BIG (70) birthday.

We’re so happy you loved your stay! Hope to host you again shortly!
The house was modern with clean lines. A no fuss place which is just what we were looking for. And when I decided to host a small dinner party and realized I was missing some cooking essentials, I called our local AvantStay contact and they delivered them the next day. That’s an A in my book.

Thank you, Debbie! We're so glad the house was just what you were looking for and that our team could assist you with the cooking essentials. We appreciate your kind words and would love to host you again!
It was updated, clean and located near restaurants. Wish we had known that heating the pool was going to cost $468 more. Somehow we missed that. Great communications with the staff. Overall it was a nice stay.

Hi, Christy! We greatly appreciate you taking the time to post your review. We will take your words into consideration and make sure we iron out the details to avoid any confusion moving forward. Thanks, again.
Loved the large kitchen! Had plenty of dishes, glasses, etc. (needs a larger cutting board) The back yard pool, hot tub, grill were great to have. The bathrooms were modern and showers were strong. The place was immaculate. Whenever I had a question or need, Avant Stay was readily available and helpful. Only issue were the pillows on the beds. Very flat and cheap. I would rent it again.

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Diane! We’re so glad to hear you loved the kitchen, backyard amenities, and modern bathrooms. We appreciate you noting the pillows and will consider that for future updates. It’s great to hear that AvantStay was helpful and responsive throughout your stay. We’d be happy to welcome you back anytime!
Great location and beautiful home. Nicely remodeled with great amenities. Trash bags with dirty linens from previous guests left in closets and the comforter in one of the bedrooms had some visible stains that were kinda gross. Probably needs to be replaced as it definitely impacted our stay and the kids ended up sharing a bed in the other room. Very nice property overall.

2023 Spring stay
Overall the property was fine but the cost to heat the pool quoted at $150/day for 28 days was so absurd we didn’t hear the pool and, as a result, the stay was a disappointment. We have rented at this time of year before through OranjPalm and paid $1000-1500/month for pool heating.
