Great house, lovely neighborhood

We spent 11 fun filled and relaxing days at the house over Christmas and New Years. It was perfect for our family of 5 (parents 2 kids ages 5 and 15 mother-in-law). Plenty of room for all of us. Koffi (coffee shop) is walking distance and made for a perfect stop before our morning walks through the beautiful neighborhood. Grocery stores 5min drive, downtown Palm Springs 10min. Best holiday ever!

Quintessential Palm Springs

—fantastic property & location! —perfect size for our family’s needs —loved the decor & everything available for use in the kitchen —minus one star for cleanliness since it needs a deep clean (dust on vents, discoloration on bottom of bath tub, etc) but I’m guessing that will happen after the busy season. —we would definitely book this again!! —my family was so happy I booked this. I got thanked over & over during the weekend.

Great architectural home and neighborhood

If you want a low key family vacation - this is the spot. I celebrated my 33rd birthday here, and it was pretty fab. Great pool to cool down in the desert sun. Big kitchen for cooking with the family. Amazing mid century neighborhood - evening walks in the Palm Springs summer was a Mid Century dream. Would come back here again!

Classic Palm Springs house in a great location.

Overall this was a great midrange house for a low key, relaxing getaway - as is most of Palm Springs. We made a weekend trip with another couple and they stayed in the casita giving each of us our own space. Location was convenient to restaurants and downtown. Zach was always helpful and responsive. I do agree with some other reviews that the house could use a once over from a handyman (loose toilet paper holders, touch up paint, etc)

Great Family Home

Enjoyed a nice Thanksgiving weekend here with our family. Even though we had 2 toddlers with us, it was easy enough to childproof with a couple of gates. I brought some kitchen items with me to cook Thanksgiving dinner, but wouldn’t have needed to! The kitchen is VERY well stocked, and that was fantastic for me! We had the pool heated and it was perfect. The lawn is beautiful, but my only complaint is that it was always too wet for the kids to run around and kick a ball. Sprinklers went off multiple times during the day. Overall, excellent home!

Fun in the Sun!

Amazing house- perfect for vacation in the sun! Loved the pool, layout of the house and decor. Clean upon arrival, although the master bath seemed like it could use a bit more. With small children, love the alarm feature that talks every time the doors would open so we don’t have to worry about the pool. The pool is big and the perfect temperature. Great location. Very nice neighborhood. Great AC inside when you need to cool down. Nice living room and couch that fits everyone. Great backyard. Host excellent communication. There were just a few things that would have helped our stay be a little more convenient: a few more pool towels, kitchen towels (none to be found), the toilets don’t seem flush all the time, a few lights in the house were out and need to be replaced. Overall great stay in Palm Springs!

Friends reunion

The house is comfortable and my friends and I had a great time, but all the rules about noise are off-putting. Most of this seems to come from Palm Springs city ordinances, but this property also has multiple signs and notices saying guests cannot even speak quietly outside before 8:00 AM or after 10:00 PM for fear of a back neighbor who will report to the noise police and we could be fined up to $1,000. No music is allowed outside at any time of the day nor inside the house if it could be heard outside.

Great House, Poor Owner Communication

The house was great and comfortable for our 7 guests. Great location and neighborhood. Our only negatives were that we requested to heat the pool and it wasn't heated until our second day, but our first day pool heat money was refunded to compensate. The outdoor firepit did not work the entire time we were there, which was unfortunate. We asked for it to be fixed and were told that a handy man would come, but nothing was ever done. Plan to bring extra toilet paper - only 2 rolls were provided for each bathroom. The owner wasn't very pleasant to communicate with and questioned any request in a bit of a degrading tone. The owners came into the house on our last day before check out time to look around which felt a bit strange.

Lovely weekend

I’m a frequent Palm Springs visitor & for a larger group (8adults) this was a great house for the value and space. Being a designer the decor/layout is important to me & this space was very visually pleasing. The lead up was typical annoying PS promise to never speak/paperwork to sign (super strict noise ordinance in town no matter where you stay) but the property managers were VERY accommodating and responsive to every request we made from check in to check out. Only regret was not asking for more towels because for 8 adults there was 1 per person bath towels & 6 pool towels, so if youre 8 ppl please note that. Also it was difficult for 8ppl to find properties that didn’t have a bunch of twin beds, this one had 1 room with 2 twins making it awkward for one of the couples to take the bad room…but from searching a lot of other properties of similar pricepoint this was a gem bc others just have more bunk beds & twins. There were extra chairs in the bedroom closet & a well stocked kitchen. Loved the view of the mountains early morning & sunset. I bought a citronella candle at the hardware store next to grocery store bc evenings had little biting bugs outside (not a criticism but heads up for future guests). Loved this weekend getaway & solid lovely stay at this house!

Good, but not great!

We rented this property and actually really enjoyed it! I love the Twin Palms area! The location was awesome. Our contact person for the property was very helpful until we checked in. Our efforts to contact him during our stay for some issues were left unanswered, or no response for 48 hours. There were no lights for the swimming pool. The best thing about the Casita was the air conditioning. The television didn't work and neither did the outlets. The main house was was very spacious and a very well stocked kitchen. The air conditioning in the main house failed to reach the set temperature during our entire 4 day stay We could only get it to down to 79 degrees! It became very hot in the afternoons and it was difficult to keep the temperature comfortable. Needless to say the A/C unit does not have the capability to keep the house cool. The temperature was 115, we needed the relief! This property would be really great if it were mainted properly and given a little TLC!

Wonderful House, Great Beds, Gorgeous Location, Unfortunate Neighbor

We just had a fabulous stay at this beautiful house for my husband's 40th birthday. The space was perfect for two families with kids, the pool was lovely, the yard space was great for our two dogs to play, and all the amenities were on hand! When we had a few very minor questions at check in, Zach was super speedy to respond and took care of everything! The beds and linens were amazingly comfortable, too, which always makes a trip feel like a real vacation. (Some kind of shade in the top windows would help the sleep even more!) Our only issue was with a neighbor who Zach had graciously warned us about, who it seems is overly particular about noise. In accordance with local laws, we never had outdoor music (though apparently the neighbor complained that we did), and the only "noise" was the usual fun of three kids playing in a pool during the afternoon. Yet Zach received (and passed along) multiple complaints from the neighbor. Once, one member of our party stepped outside to take a phone call in the evening, and the neighbor complained it was "after 10" (the start of the outdoor noise ordinance). It was 10:03. Zach handled each complaint politely and acknowledges this neighbor is exceptionally picky, but it did put a damper on the mood of the trip when I had to constantly worry my kids might have 'too much fun.' Even so, we'd be quick to rent this property again, but families who hope to be a bit rowdier might want to book elsewhere.

About the host

Hosted by Zach

Host profile image
Our family has been vacationing in Palm Springs for four generations. There is something special about Palm Springs that continues to enchant us. Hugging the mountain on Highway 111 as we cruise into town melts our stress away and our first glimpse of the iconic mid-century modern architecture transports us to another time.

We got married in Palm Springs at the Viceroy (now the Avalon) in 2008. Since then, we have dreamed of opening a boutique hotel in Palm Springs. In early 2012, we stumbled upon this original mid-century modern Alexander butterfly roof home with its original footprint still in tact. We decided to fulfill our dream of owning a boutique hotel by carefully renovating and designing this house to provide guests with a hotel-like experience in a private home. We spent the next year carefully restoring it to its original splendor (with modern upgrades).

We are excited to offer this special property to our guests, and we hope our guests will treasure this house as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

This house provides the quintessential Palm Springs experience: mid-century modern architecture; private pool and yard with citrus trees; mountain views; walking distance to restaurants, coffee shops, bars and more; stylish new furnishings and decor; in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Palm Springs.

What makes this property unique

This property is truly unique because of its rare butterfly roofline, its modern, yet period-appropriate upgrades, its historical significance, its large backyard, and its orientation towards the mountain, resulting in mountain views from all bedrooms and the backyard.
