About this property

Hollywood History! Views-Saltwater Pool & Spa! Vista Las Palmas walk to downtown

Amazing Location! Incredible Mountain views on the best street in the best neighborhood in all of Palm Springs. This Classic Alexander Mid Century Modern has a rich Hollywood Past (Oscar nominee Jackie Cooper owned this home). Come enjoy the knock down Mountain Views towering behind the house...Stretch out by the salt water pool and grab a drink- and get ready for serious rest, relaxation and fun! House was completely updated in the Summer of '23. Amazing outdoor spaces include a huge fire pit, loungers for sunbathing, great BBQ with counter, and an outdoor dining pavilion under a pergola with an overhead light, heaters and a professional mister system that lets you enjoy being outside regardless of weather. This Palm Springs Alexander features walls of glass and the dead-on mountain views- the ultimate in California indoor/outdoor living. Simple, Elegant, FUN! CITY ID 1058. Note VRBO sometimes lists home as 4 Bedroom and 4 baths- we have full 3 bathrooms inside and an outdoor shower and outdoor bath tub, no full 4th bathroom.

The classic Mid Century open style of this Alexander makes it a perfect entertaining space. The kitchen and dining area connect to the great room with vaulted exposed beam ceilings, a 75 inch Samsung Frame Smart TV in the living room, large windows with incredible Mountain Views and several sliding glass doors providing an abundance of light inside this hip desert retreat. Amazing sound system with a cool retro Wrensilva stereo console, play records, blue tooth from your phone, or use Sonos. You’ll find the kitchen well stocked with anything you might need to enjoy and have a great time.

All 4 bedrooms have king beds and Samsung Smart TVs. Two bedrooms have their own private patio space with chairs to relax. En suite baths for the two master suites at opposite ends of the bedroom wing. The bathrooms are new and updated with skylights and windows to keep things light and bright. There is an outdoor shower for your enjoyment. One bedroom has a desk if a workspace is needed, and we have a standing desk on casters that can be used anywhere.

We closely follow the City of Palm Springs Vacation Rental Ordinances. No Outdoor Music, Max guests 8 (listed on rental agreement), 3 Cars allowed. Violation of City Ordinances will result in fines and eviction with no return of rental fees. CITY ID 1058

Rent from the owner- no hidden or very high "Host" fees that third party agencies will charge. You communicate directly with me and my local house manager. I love sharing my home with people coming to enjoy Palm Springs. We charge the rental rate, cleaning, and tax. The pool is heated at your option for an additional fee. We offer a 10 % discount on weekly stays and 15% discount on monthly stays (these are calculated automatically with your quote). Monthly stays are not subject to the City TOT tax, and we do not charge for utilities (other than pool heat at your option).

Vista Las Palmas is known as the "Beverley Hills of Palm Springs" Oscar nominee Jackie Cooper owned this home and neighbors included Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, Dean Martin, Peter Lawford and Dinah Shore (home now owned by Leonardo DiCaprio)!

The location is terrific, walking distance to downtown Palm Springs and the famous Palm Canyon Drive Strip. People are attracted to the neighborhood for the same attributes that made it popular originally. Vista Las Palmas is close to downtown -- 15 minutes by foot -- yet feels remote because it lacks streetlights and through traffic, has all utility lines buried, and is in the shadow of the San Jacinto Mountains.

Residents love gazing at the hills, which provide the neighborhood with an awesome backdrop. You wake up and see the mountains and your pool. Imagine back in the heyday when Jackie Cooper owned this house- Think that Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., and Frank Sinatra could have cavorted out by the pool... Peter Lawford's open-beamed home is in Vista Las Palmas- imagine Marilyn Monroe stopping by -- and so, people say, did Jack Kennedy.

Children must be supervised by an adult at all times. The property is on a regular maintenance schedule (pool and landscaping). We closely follow the City of Palm Springs Vacation Rental Ordinances. No Outdoor Music permitted, Max guests 8 (listed on rental agreement). 3 Cars allowed. Violation of rules will result in immediate eviction with no return of rental fees. The City of Palm Springs responds to complaints 24 hours a day and will issue you a $500 fine. Security cameras film front and side of property for safety of property and people. We employ a noise monitoring device made by noiseaware. https://noiseaware.io/

Second stay and still the best

Just returned from our second stay and can't wait to return for a third! Home is still one of the best we've stayed in located in the best neighborhood in Palm Springs. My kids enjoyed evening walks on the quiet street and obviously the amazing pool. Hosts and caretaker are great very friendly. Book it and you won't regret !

Great House in a Great Neighborhood!

We loved our stay at 1055 N. Rose--the house is nicely decorated (we loved the frame tv!), the kitchen well-stocked, the outdoor space is large and well-appointed, and view of the mountains from inside and out is just beautiful! We used the salt water pool and spa almost every day-a great way to end the day. Great walking neighborhood and easy walk to downtown Palm Springs. The owner was very responsive to the one small issue that arose-replaced the item overnight. Highly recommend.

Palm Springs Awesomeness!

Stay here! First a little background--we stay in 3-4 VRBO per year for the last 5 years. This is the nicest we have stayed in. The neighborhood is awesome! The house is very clean and very nicely decorated. We hit the hot tub and fire pit every night and unfortunately did not make it to the outside bath tub or sauna. The house is as it is pictured! Oh, and what I thought was a piece of art above the fireplace is a huge TV. Marshall gave us a great tour of the place and Margaret was an awesome host. Again I say---stay here!

Our kids keep thanking us!

We have stayed at many properties with our two sons. Our family has grown to include two daughters-in-law and two grandsons. Our needs keep changing, and finding the right house can be challenging. The Palm Springs area is a favorite of ours. We decided to try the Las Palmas neighborhood for a change. It's quiet and pristine, with incredible homes and architecture. What a house! It accommodated us perfectly. The house is well-equipped and beautifully decorated. Every bedroom has a king-size bed. That isn't easy to find. We really felt at home. The backyard is outstanding. It can be tough to find a pool with a spa in this area (since that wasn't a thing in the 1950s). Our family loves the spa and the pool. It also has a beautiful firepit and pergola area. We brought our bikes and went downtown a lot (you can also walk). You'll find many neighbors walking the neighborhood throughout the day. The Property Manager, Marshall, is very helpful and accessible. The owner, Margaret, is a great communicator and attentive to her guest's needs. We thank you, and our kids thank you! It's apparent that this property was their favorite!

This property is absolutely stunning, no surprises, it's exactly as in the photos. Plenty of room inside and outside for a group of 8 adults. A well equipped kitchen. It's approximately a 30 min walk to the main strip of Palm Springs. Margaret is a fantastic owner and very quick to reply to text. Would rent again in a heartbeat.

This house is gorgeous and an amazing location and view! Great spaces to hang out inside and out. The pool is bigger than the pictures make it. Everything was super clean, stylish, and organized. Plenty of towels, lounge chairs/seating options, and comfortable beds. Property manager and home owner were both super responsive and accommodating.

Gorgeous house with incredible views

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The host and property manager were very communicative and the check-in and checkout was seamless. Our flight arrived early and they were already waiting for us. The house is absolutely beautiful, the pictures do not do it justice. The mountains are so close and gorgeous pool and hot tub. We had plenty of space for 8 of us, fully stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Palm Springs. The property is less than 10 minutes from downtown with lots of restaurants and shops. We had one small issue that was dealt with immediately by the property manager. They were very good at communicating and quick to respond. We would definitely stay again, thank you!

Perfect Palm Springs House

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed this house. Very clean, well laid out and comfortable. The backyard is spectacular. We requested the pool heated and it was perfect. Loved the hot tub and that awesome fire pit! Strict noise rules meant we had a very peaceful stay which we appreciated. Beds are quite firm but comfortable, with nice linens. Having all king beds and plenty of bathrooms was also a plus. Seems guests are expected to check in personally with manager to learn how to work things in the house. It was difficult to find a time that worked so in the end we didn't do it, but it was very easy to figure everything out from the helpful notebook. Manager also wanted to do a walk through of the house when we checked out but we had to leave early and couldn't comply. Would be good to know that ahead of time so guests can work that into their schedule and make time for it. Communication was easy and prompt.

Amazing place!!

This property is absolutely wonderful. We have rented countless properties and this is by far the nicest! Very clean and well kept. Amazing views, gorgeous grounds and high end furniture and amenities. Small details like stocking paper towels, toilet paper, dishwasher pods, etc made it extra convenient. So much better than the cheap starter packs so many rentals offer. Margaret was absolutely lovely to deal with as was the house manager. They both were super responsive and helpful. We were met by the house manager as soon as we arrived in Palm Springs and were able to start enjoying the home right away! I would note its a very quiet area so noise could be an issue. We kept the music inside and didn't have any issues. Will absolutely recommend this property!

Amazing rental!

Great spot for 7 women in our 40s on a college reunion trip. We were able to check in early, which was a huge benefit. House was clean, as described in the listing, with beautiful scenery. About 15-20 min walk to main road for coffee, drinks, etc. but plenty of nice walks and trails right by the house too. Highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Margaret Healy

Host profile image
I grew up in and Eichler in Northern California and love Mid Century Modern Architecture. Palm Spring has always had a strong pull for me and I enjoy coming down as much as possible.

Why they chose this property

Vista Las Palmas has a wonderful history and the best views in Palm Springs. When I found this house was in a sad state. It had been remodeled into a Spanish Style Adobe in the 80's and had sat partially demo'd for over a year before I bought it. It took the work of a talented architect to see the true Alexander bones underneath all the mess. I am proud to have brought her back to life- and still can't get over the Mountain Views.

What makes this property unique

This house isn't a rental- it's my dream home. I like to share it with others who will enjoy it as much as I do. The location is awesome too.
