Mid-Century Gem w/Salt-Water Pool, Spa,Cabana,yard, blt in bbq,& 300+5 star revs

City ID # 2922 TOT # 7130

Step into Rancho Relaxo — a 1960 original Alexander/Krisel where mid-century charm meets playful Palm Springs personality. The open, light-filled living area blends comfort and authenticity, designed for effortless lounging after a day in the sun. Thoughtful artwork from local icons Shag and Mod City adds that unmistakable Palm Springs flair guests love to discover in person.

The living room features comfortable seating, streaming TV, and a warm, welcoming vibe — anchored by signature touches that make Rancho Relaxo unforgettable. Around the house, cheerful signage sets the mood: as you enter you are greeted by “Hello” in neon, then “You Are Wonderful” marquee lights at the pool, and the hand-painted “Life Is Good” wall outside the primary that has become a guest-favorite photo spot.

The kitchen is fully equipped and easy to use —chef’s kitchen perfect for breakfasts or a relaxed dinner at home. Just beyond, the primary suite is its own private retreat, complete with an en-suite bath and private dining area that opens toward the yard — an ideal spot for morning coffee or a quiet glass of wine at sunset. Two additional bedrooms provide comfort and style, each with quality linens and cozy details to make everyone feel at home.


Step outside and you’ll understand why guests call Rancho Relaxo their happy place. The backyard is a private desert oasis built for sunshine, laughter, and long, easy afternoons. A sparkling salt-water pool sits at the heart of it all, surrounded by comfortable lounge chairs, lush greenery, and a shaded cabana perfect for reading, napping, or cocktails by sunset.

The outdoor kitchen and BBQ area make dining al fresco a breeze — whether you’re grilling for a group or keeping it simple. String lights and glowing accents create a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere after dark, with the “You Are Wonderful” marquee lights opposite the pool serving as a favorite backdrop for photos and evening gatherings.

Guests love the mature fruit trees — lemon, lime, and grapefruit — that line the yard. You’re welcome to pick a few for your morning juice or evening drink; it’s a small pleasure that feels uniquely Palm Springs.

At Rancho Relaxo, the outdoor space is more than a yard — it’s an experience. Every detail invites you to slow down, smile, and soak up the best of Palm Springs living.




Amenities & Extras

Every detail at Rancho Relaxo is designed to make your stay easy, comfortable, and carefree. You’ll find fast Wi-Fi, streaming TVs in the living room and bedrooms, and central air conditioning to keep things cool when the desert heats up. A full laundry area with washer and dryer adds convenience for longer stays.

For outdoor living, enjoy ample parking, a private fenced yard, and pool floats for lazy afternoons in the sun. The fully stocked kitchen includes cookware, dishes, and basics to get you started, along with a coffee maker for those quiet early mornings by the pool.

Thoughtful touches are everywhere — from the cheerful art and custom lighting to cozy linens and shaded seating areas. Whether you’re staying for a weekend or a month, Rancho Relaxo has everything you need to settle in, unplug, and feel at home.

A light and open 1960 Alexander home in Racquet Club Estates located five minutes from downtown Palm Springs. The house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a well-equipped kitchen with modern appliances. The salt-water pool is surrounded by lush grass for kids and adults alike. The covered patio and shade trees provide respite from the sun, while the outdoor BBQ and fridge keep you fed and refreshed all day long. Hello..you are wonderful..relax,lif is good. That's the vibe here.

The primary on suite bedroom has it's own private dining area just outside the double doors, both this bedroom and the second bedrooms feature king size beds, while the third bedroom has two full size beds. All three bedrooms offer high-quality pillows and linens, flat screen TV's, black-out shades, and closets.

Palm Springs Paradise

Can't say enough wonderful things about this property. The upbeat vibe of the furnishings and art work, the fabulous outdoor space with pool and fruit/lemon trees with views of the mountains. The neighborhood is quiet and close to downtown. Communication was terrific. One issue was resolved quickly. We were sad to leave this oasis in Palm Springs.

Cute Mid-Mod

The place is cute and cozy and the pool and hot tub were great! The sink and showers were funky. They smelled like sewer and sputtered air. When I brushed my teeth it tasted really off. My skin was itchy after a shower. Otherwise it was fine.

Great mid century getaway. The house is very clean, and well appointed. The pool was great, as was the covered seating area next to the pool… Which was amazing during the hot summer day. We really enjoyed your stay, and would recommend the Rancho Relaxo!

Mid-Century vibe

We really enjoyed the indoor-outdoor flow of this house, including the fantastic covered patio, barbecue grill and heated spa. Great location. Near all that’s happening on Palm Canyon Drive, yet in a quiet neighborhood of immaculate mid-century homes. Great views from the spa of the majestic, snow-covered peaks.

A piece of Palm Springs paradise

We stayed at this home for 6 nights in July. We did almost all of our own cooking while there and the kitchen is extremely well stocked. The pool, hot tub, and outdoor areas are gorgeous and comfortable. You couldn’t ask for a better host! Paul is quick to respond and very helpful. We would definitely stay again!

Palm Springs Vibe All the Way

The property was fabulous - accurate to the listing and actually bigger than I thought it would be! Really loved the mid-century decor and vibe throughout - very Palm Springs! It had everything we needed for our party of 6 (adults & teenagers). Some items are a little worn and could use a refresh, but it is a rental so I understand. Definitely a property to return to. Highly recommend.

FANTASTIC Property!

Property was just as shown in photos and provided everything we needed for a great stay in Palm Springs. Paul, the owner, was friendly and very responsive from booking through departure. He greeted us personally upon arrival to make sure we understood how everything worked and provided us information about the area. The house was fully equipped and the backyard was excellent for hanging out. I would definitely return to this property.

About the host

Hosted by Paul Gregory

Host profile image
I am from the East Coast, and have lived in LA for many years commuting also to NYC. Upon finding this property I found a little piece of Heaven. A true Oasis in the desert!

Why they chose this property

I am in love with this house, and thrilled to share it with you! Hopefully the warm and fun touches throughout will make this truly your home away from home. Alexander homes focus on the outdoor space, this home does not disappoint! The outdoor living room , dining room, and that amazing salt water pool and spa!

What makes this property unique

Our home is unique as we have a comfortable outdoor lounging and dining area located underneath a shaded covered patio. We have an outdoor kitchen with BBQ, fridge and side burner. Great Big Tv's and surround sound.
Our pool has a tanning shelf so you can actually sit in the water as you soak up the sun. And there is a Hot Tub!
