Maintaining its original character while having been fully restored with modern amenities, gas fireplace newly installed, custom lighting, updated kitchen and baths, large windows, and french glass doors that let in year-round sunshine, this home is a great choice for your next Palm Springs getaway. Outside you'll find a family-friendly backyard, fully enclosed with lush green landscaping, palm trees, hedges, citrus, blackberries, a beautiful pool & spa, and breathtaking views of the gorgeous Palm Springs mountains to the west. The living room features vaulted ceilings, comfortable seating, a 55' HDTV, and a cozy fireplace in an open concept great room.

Just perfect!

Greatly enjoyed our stay at this lovely property. Quiet, convenient, tastefully furnished, in a great neighborhood only minutes from downtown. Comfortable, with everything you could want or need, and an authentic old Palm Springs vibe. Beautiful mountain views outside, mature grounds with fruited orange trees and hummingbirds! Hope to come back.

A Relaxing Oasis

The house and yard were well kept and clean. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The HVAC worked perfectly in the heat-wave that happened while we were there. The pool was a welcomed relief from the heat; and we used it day and night. We loved seeing all the wildlife that were attracted to the vegetation in the yard. We also appreciated the easy access to the Palm Springs restaurants and shops from this property. This was an excellent place to stay in Palm Springs.

Wonderful 1930s Spanish bungalow, vintage Palm Springs

This is a gorgeous Spanish bungalow on a beautiful, well manicured lot. Extremely comfortable, relaxing, and well furnished. Be advised that if you want to use the spa, you must schedule heating service 2-3 days in advance of arrival. I think this policy should be clearer on the welcome email and more prominently placed on the website, as this is a very important detail. Overall, a truly wonderful property that speaks to Palm Springs’ storied past, and one that I’ll return to in the future.

Charming bungalow

The house itself had every amenity you would want. The decor reflected the era of midcentury and earlier. Finally, the place was pristine and clean. I am disappointed though, that I was told there was a daily charge of 73. for the pools, after I paid the second payment. That is over 400 I didn't expect to pay. So I just enjoyed looking at the pool. Please be upfront after I invested all this money.

Nice Casita

Stayed for a week here while visiting Palm Springs area. Too cold to swim or use the pool. PRO’s: lovely grounds, nice house, quiet neighborhood about 7 min drive to downtown, decorated nicely CON’s: terrible lighting-couldn’t find any good reading light in the house, warm water in bathroom sink takes 3 min to come on-really?-there is even a sign about it, this should be fixed, there is a window above sink so mirror was hung to the side on wall so shaving makes a mess on the floor, house is in north Palm Springs which is very windy so makes it much colder when you are trying to sit outside.

Beautiful home and garden

This place is really quiet with great facilities, pool and garden. There is easy access to the pool from different rooms which means you don't have to go the long way round if you want to get to the kitchen or the bedroom. The a/c is super efficient (cold even) in the kitchen, less so in the bedrooms but still good enough. The pool guy was very polite but seemed to turn up on none of the days advertised in the brochure or Vacasa website which were different. Not a big deal but this happens in a other Vacasa places too and needs sorting out. A small thing is that there are notices up saying what not to do (like bring wet towels into the house from the pool). This is perfectly reasonable but the stickers on windows about it are a bit institutional and off-putting. All that aside, I would recommend this place.

Great house, do NOT rent through Vacasa/VRBO

The house itself was great overall. Super private, beautiful yard, great pool, great location. I will never rent through Vacasa/VRBO in the future. We woke up to no power on a 97 degree day and it was out for the full day. I had to stay with friends for the day because it was unbearably hot. Over the phone, they offered to turn on our pool heat mid-trip and cover the charge for that day because of the inconvenience, then they ended up charging me for the entire trip and didn't respond to my emails about why I was charged for the full trip. (It's been 10 days and I haven't gotten a response still). Again, beautiful house, terrible service. Note: I called two weeks early to ask if payment was required to heat the hot tub and was told no, just the pool. The day before my visit, while checking in, I was informed I would have to pay to heat the hot tub as they are connected, but the deadline had already passed so it was no longer an option. I ended up getting pool/spa heat turned on as an apology for having no electricity, but was charged for the entire trip, even the days where I didn't have the pool heated. It was really frustrating dealing with customer service.

Hot tub worked first time we used it but subsequently was only 81 degrees and not 100’degrees indicated by property managerWe requested refund of extra charge for pool and hot tub but never received a response. Just a caution on hot tub if you plan to use it. Otherwise stay was great and property quiet and clean.

Quiet Island in the Desert

We enjoyed our stay at this wonderful home. The house was well appointed and had most everything we needed for our stay. There was a binder full of information about the house, as well as many tourist brochures with maps that had information that you couldn’t find on-line…very helpful! We enjoyed sitting outside in the large, quiet backyard. It was very peaceful and a nice place to relax after a day of hiking. We felt very at home here. Thank you!!
