Retro & funky mid-century mod at Ocotillo Lodge

Enjoy our modern condo at the historic Ocotillo Lodge! This light & airy, mid-century unit offers the best of Palm Springs living. It`s a 2nd story unit with a patio and meticulous details to complement the surrounding desert landscape, as well as endless mountain views. You`ll appreciate the many stylized nods to Palm Springs` colorful history while enjoying modern amenities. Our retro & funky mid-century gem is yours to enjoy!

This unit at the Ocotillo Lodge retains many of the original architectural elements designed by architects Palmer and Krisel. With recent upgrades to the kitchen & bathroom, our one-bedroom condo basks in lots of natural light, with amazing views of the surrounding mountains and palm canopy. You get a chance to truly enjoy the best of indoor/outdoor living, including a patio to enjoy a morning coffee, afternoon cocktail or al-fresco.

The stylish condo decor mixes mid-century style with bold colors & textures. The living room has a sliding door to the patio for that seamless, indoor/outdoor experience of the soothing, natural surroundings for which Palm Springs is known.

Our bedroom features a plush king-sized bed for that perfect night`s sleep, en suite bathroom, and a work space. The kitchen is fully stocked, and opens out to the dining/bar area. We have SmartTVs in the living room & bedroom, and both have cable TV as well. Once you step outside of the unit, the large swimming pool and spa are both just steps from your door.

Originally built in 1956 by famed architects William Krisel & the Alexanders, the Ocotillo Lodge started out as a hotel, and is one of Palm Springs` most stunning mid-century gems. As a guest, you will have full access to the facilities, including the famous champagne-cork shaped pool, two hot tubs, fitness room, and lush desert landscaping. You`ll truly feel like one of the many celebrities who have frequented this famous hangout spot over the years.

Ours is truly a special unit, located in one of the best examples of mid-century architecture that Palm Springs has to offer. We can’t wait to share our little slice of Palm Springs Modernism heaven with you!
