Amazing, beautiful resort!!

There was only one downside to our Dupont Estate stay...leaving! From the youngest, a 6 year old, to the oldest, a 93 year old--no one wanted to leave. A truly fantastic place to vacation. Beautiful location with fun-filled extras. We hope to return again!

This was a wonderful place for our large family gathering to celebrate Thanksgiving and my mother-in-law's 80th birthday. We played flag football in the huge yard, sat around the fire pit each evening, watched football in the guest house, relaxed in the hot tub, and had no problem seating twenty for Thanksgiving dinner. Lynne could not have been more helpful.

I already asked the owner to use my deposit so we can book again next year!

I was referred to this venue originally for a Family Reunion/Anniversary weekend. However, after being showed the resort on a walk through, my future Mother in Law joked, "You should get married here!" And it was an adventure ever since! We were more than taken care of. The owners are so amazing! They completely accommodated us. Even when I was thinking outside the box for our wedding, they let us do everything we wanted to do. Needless to say, the wedding was spectacular! Choosing a venue for the most important day of your life is imperative, and we made the right choice! All of our guests were amazed and wanted to stay longer. Our family was so impressed that they were already seriously talking about making it a yearly getaway. There wasn't a dull moment. We played some golf, frisbees, soccer, horse shoes, ping pong. We were sad that it went by so fast! Hence wanting to go back next year!! And we are so glad that is only about an hour and a half away from Los Angeles. This will be out Middle Meeting Spot between Los Angeles and Mexico for years to come! However, this time we will be able to relax!!!!

One of a kind place

I recently organized a Palm Springs area golf outing for 8 guys, and we wanted a place where we could spread out and do our own cooking after a full day of golf. The Dupont Estate was perfect, with 9+ bedrooms spread out among 3 buildings on the property. The property has all you need, and more, very nicely appointed, and I would highly recommend it. The owner (Lynne) was excellent to work with, and always available to help in any way. I hope to go back soon!

60th wedding anniversary Weekend

We just had our family for a3 day weekend at the Dupoint Estate. It was fablulous!! My Parents were celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary, and we wanted to go somewhere special with them. We had all ages and everyone said that it was the best weekend ever. Some of the thing we loved were the fire pit , just sitting in the huge yard enjoying the view of the mountains, date palms, rose garden, fruit trees and pool. We played games with the kids and everyone swam in the large pool. Loved the built in coffee, expresso, cappuccino machine. The kitchen has everything you need for a large group, and the home is very comfortable and modern. My parents couldn't believe how nice the master suite was , with their own, spa, and out door patio. Lynne and her husband were so nice and helpful, they could not have been better. I would recommend there home to anyone having a family gathering, wedding, or just a really fun time with friends. Diana H

More like a 5 star resort than a rental home!

Before renting the Dupont Estate Resort, I looked up pretty much every property that slept over 15 people in the greater Palm Springs area. I spent weeks doing research and decided on this property after speaking with the owners who were both helpful in answering my questions about the rental and excited to share their property with our group. I can truly say that the pictures and videos don't do it justice- this is one of the most amazing properties I have ever rented. The "house" feels more like a resort with high-end appliances, a SONOS system that plays music in every room and even outside in the expansive backyard, new linens and towels, and carefully decorated rooms and bathrooms. You can tell that the owners take pride in this home- everything from the backsplash in the kitchen to the art around the house has been thought of with luxury and class in mind. The best part though is that the property still retains this very chic and classic "Palm Springs" vibe while also giving guests modern luxuries. A few people in our group actually recognized the house from some very popular TV shows- yes the property is quite famous. : ) The backyard is something that has to be seen to fully appreciate. It's bigger than most homes in the neighborhood! With a picturesque backdrop of the mountains behind the yard, we found ourselves spending the afternoon just sitting from the living room and taking in the view. The property is walking distance to grocery stores and restaurants so you won't have to travel far if you are looking for a relaxing getaway with no stress. We didn't want to leave the house though for meals- what's the point when you are already at the best setting and place to be in Palm Springs! We can't wait to return to this magical property to create more memories and magical moments.

Desert Oasis

Just came back from a week at The Dupont Estate Resort. We are a golf group of 50 plus year old guys mostly from the East coast who have been going away for 25+ years on an annual bro golf trip, and this is the nicest place we have ever been to. And we have been to Pinehurst, Charleston, Myrtle Beach, Utah, Hilton Head, plus plus. It was like having your own private resort. Lynne the owner could not have been more helpful with restaurant tips and anything we needed. Even though it was 100 degrees the pool was nice cool and refreshing. The grounds are amazing and the house was everything we wanted and more. Lynne went out of her to make our stay an enjoyable one and everyone in the group said when can we come back to the area and the Dupont Resort. It was the perfect location for all our golf courses and convenient to everything. Once we settled in, nothing we needed golf, food, stores was more then 15 minutes away. I would recommend this place to any large group looking for the best you can get. Thanks again to Lynne and Robert

We loved our time at the Dupont estate

My husband and I and 13 of our friends stayed at the Dupont Estate for 3 nights for my husband's 40th birthday. The property is GORGEOUS first and foremost, and everything is well taken care of--you even have almost everything you need--just buy food and drink and enjoy your stay! There is a ton to do on the property, you never have to leave. We loved the Sonos music system, the amazing kitchen, the grill, and of course the pool the most--but everything is to die for. Our friends that didn't accompany us saw our photos on social media and couldn't get over how beautiful the property was. When you're at the estate, you truly feel like you have your own hotel property to yourself! It was the perfect getaway for us to be able to concentrate on our time with friends. Each bedroom is well setup, everyone had a unique room and a nice bathroom. The owners were very easy to contact and very helpful without being intruding. We cannot recommend the Dupont Estate enough. We hope to return very soon!

Absolute Perfection

I can not express or begin to describe how perfect the property is. My husband and I had our small (55 people) backyard wedding here. We were recently engaged when we met Lynne and Rob and saw the house for the first time. It was our first property viewing and when we saw it, we decided to look no further. It was exactly what we wanted. We had family coming from out of town and it was the perfect location for our newly blended families to spend the weekend together celebrating with us. It also was spacious enough to for us to have all of the festivities in the same location. We had a small meet and greet BBQ the Friday before the wedding which gave some guests a preview of our wedding location. Everyone was amazed!! The yard is so spacious that our ceremony took place on one end of the property and the dance floor, seating area and buffet were located on the other end. All of our wedding photos were taken at different locations on the property which provided a colorful and spectacular backdrop for our day. Lynne is outstanding and genuinely wants your experience at the estate to be a positive and memorable one. She actually helped me plan our wedding and made suggestions that made my life much easier. A number of people have contacted me after viewing our wedding photos to request information on the location of our wedding. The pictures included on VRBO and on the resort website are beautiful but do not reflect how beautiful the property actually is in person. We truly blessed to have had the opportunity to spend our wedding weekend at the Dupont Estate Resort.

Perfect for Golf Retreats

This house is an excellent option if you need to accommodate larger groups of people. We did not want to go out to restaurants every night, so we opted for a chef to cook for us one night. The house was as described, spacious, very clean and well kept. The whole process from beginning to end was well managed and smooth. We enjoyed our golf retreat away from snowy Canada. Thanks again.

Perfect for Large Groups

Rented for my wife's 30th birthday over Halloween weekend. Property was as described and much more. Perfect compound feel for a large group of family and friends. Solid location near Costco, Bevmo, and Palm Desert restaurants/nightlife. Pool, sauna, outdoor firepit, lawn setup was great. Had great group meals at the house too. Sonos music is definitely a big plus for the tech savvy. I've had horrible experiences with security deposits after the fact but this experience was fair and great. Lynne is great with email, text and phone communication.

The Perfect Anniversary

On November 27,2014 my wife and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary. We were looking for a site that was not too difficult to get to and one that would accomodate the two of us, our four children and their spouses and our nine grandchildren as well. The Dupont Estate was the perfect answer. The entire facility is perfect for adults and children with a very large yard for every activity you can imagine as well as a beautiful clean pool and jacuzzi. We arrived to a spotless home with all of the amenities, even a piano which could be used as a player piano or standard piano for the grandkids to show off their musical skills. Our family likes to cook and the large kitchen and brand new barbeque were perfectly suited to us. I really can not think of anything more that could be said and the owners were very easy to deal with. I suppose the best reviewI can give is that the entire family wants to go back next year.

Immaculate Compound-type Property, Incredible for Large Groups

We recently rented the Dupont Estate for a guys' reunion golf weekend. We had 13 and the house easily accommodated our entire group with mostly everyone having their own bed and own room. The pictures listed are fantastic, but none really do it justice live. It's a ranch-style home with a guest-house and a spa-house (1 bdrm) in a compound style setting with huge grounds in the back-yard. The bedrooms rooms are all impeccably maintained and styled in a really nice and fun manner. The beds are comfortable and there are multi-zone AC controls that allow for different temp settings for any unique personal likes. Fans and HD flat-screens are in all rooms from what I remember. The guest house is really cozy and we originally thought would be more of a crash-pad but it actually served as a great place for poker games and ping pong tourney on it's attached patio. It also have a full kitchen which was great. The main house is super-nice but very comfortable. The bar area was a lot of fun to use and the kitchen is incredible. The grounds though were the highlight for us. The pools is really large and the jacuzzi can accommodate a big group, although we didn't use it much. There is also a great horseshoe pit and a fire pit which we really made good use of. The yard is huge and open and you could easily have a football or soccer game or bocce or all three at once considering how big it is. The yard is surrounded by fruit trees and palm trees which give it an oasis type of feel. It was really serene in the evenings and there was no threat of noise issues for neighbors as the property is so large that I doubt that anyone even knew we were there, which says a lot for a group of 13 guys that didn't turn in early. There's also plenty of driveway parking if you have multiple cars too. This is just a really unique property for the desert and the owners are really great to work with. They can set up chefs or masseurs to come in, but we didn't opt for that. This is really a home-run property that is ideal for large groups, events, reunions, or whatever. Thanks again, Lynne!!

Review #9467888 “Superb Business Retreat” 6-Stars

Review #9467888 “Superb Business Retreat” 6-Stars The DuPont Estate housed our annual Managers conference in October. From the beginning of organizing the week's events, owners Lynne and Rob were extremely helpful with all the little details we had to plan. The open spaces of the estate were important for the multiple meeting venues needed for breakout sessions, team building events and attendee round table sessions. The guest house provided us with the large screen TV for Skype meetings with out-of-state guest speakers and a room large enough for everyone to be comfortable in the business atmosphere we needed. The kitchen adjacent to that area also provided refreshments and product discussion sample room all refrigerated. One evening we built teams and organized a cooking contest, everyone participated and the Main Kitchen, outside Grill, and Guest House kitchen provided more than enough space. It fun, competitive and a great hands-on learning experience- The entire home is appointed beautifully, all outdoor areas to sit and relax, small meetings and even an occasional croquette matches played well for open space and comfort. Meeting Owner Lynne and all her exuberance to get it just right for her guest’s requirements is a testament to great execution. You can ask anyone: Who would ever go to a Hotel and deal w/catering and those hard chairs, when there is a beautiful Estate where you can meet on your schedule.

The Dupont Estate is magical!

What an unbelievable weekend we just had at the Dupont Estate. We had a wedding in the Palm Desert area, and the groom,/Groomsmen and parents stayed in this property. We also had a 100 person BBQ/pool party at the property on Friday for the “groom’s dinner” event. We had friends in from all over the USA. In two words, the guests were “blown away” by the property. The grounds are so big, and well manicured, and the house is so “chic.” You feel like one of the Kennedy’s at Martha’s vineyard in the backyard. Lastly, Lynne and Rob are two of the best people you will ever meet. They truly, truly want you to have the time of your life when you stay at their property. Any extra help they can provide on restaurant recommendations, vendors, anything it can be, they are willing to lend a hand. It was so appreciated. When we were planning for the weekend, we had a number of conversations, and Lynne gets as excited for you as one of your closest friends can be. I cannot recommend this property more highly. It is perfect, the owners are perfect, and you will have a great time.

More than we expected!!!

I stay with my whole tennis team. We were 14 adults in total and the property was perfect. Great kitchen, spacious rooms and living room. Perfect for families reunions and/or groups that want to stay together and do not mind not going out, since this property makes you want to stay inside. Great patio and pools. Lynne, the owner, very sweet lady. I recommend it to every tennis team playing for National Championship. Definitely staying again when I get back to the area.

INCREDIBLE WEDDING VENUE!

Everyone should get married here! Our pictures are beautiful, our guests marveled at the property, it felt so intimate and luxurious and exceeded every one of my expectations. Lynne & Rob, the owners, are 2 of the loveliest people I've ever met. They were such a help to us, and were truly committed to making sure we had everything we needed. They have thought of everything here! We had a small wedding (60 guests), but easily could've had 200. The entire bridal party stayed with us for the wedding, and the day after we relaxed with the family. Our rehearsal dinner was followed by game night in the Great Room, our ceremony was held under 3 big beautiful trees in the sprawling yard/garden with a majestic mountain behind us, and our reception area was set up around 4 date palm trees that form a perfect square (ideal location for the dance floor). My parents, our siblings, and all our friends could not believe how wonderful this property was! We will absolutely return (hopefully at least once/year) for future family gatherings, and weekend getaways with friends. The chef Lynne recommended to us was perfection! His food, the presentation, the staff, just everything - flawless and impressive. I've never had better food at a wedding, and he was a joy to work with. The master suite and bathroom is better than a suite at the Four Seasons. The view from the large, all-glass, shower is breathtaking in the morning - and the private patio with hot-tub off the master is soooo romantic. The photos give you a really good sense of the property, but the videos are even better. Still, no photo can convey how beautiful and serene and elegant it is in person. Stop reading this review and book it :) Our wedding was happiest weekend of my life, and being able to have it here was a large part of how special it was. I was the last of my bridesmaids to marry, and had the benefit of their knowledge/experience - we all agree that this venue and everything it allows for was by far the best. Thank you Lynne & Rob, I'm so grateful to you! Alexandra

Great Weekend!!

Still basking in the glow from our weekend in Palm Springs at the Dupont Estate. We had 15 guests for my wife's 50th birthday. What a perfect place for a large group. We felt like we were part of the Rat Pack sipping on our cocktails at such a wonderful venue. Each and every one of our guests left with the same comments that they made upon their arrival: "this place is ridiculous!" The pool is fit for 30 with comfort. The hot tub is also huge. We dubbed the pool house "the Bing" because that is where our late night cocktails were consumed (right next to the putting green of course). Can't say enough and we will definitely be back with new and improved bionic livers!! Thanks for everything Lynne!!

BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF PROPERTY!

We were here for my husband's birthday. We were a total of 5 couples. This property is just incredibly beautiful! It is a very deceiving piece of property. You would never know from the street that behind the gate is a HUGE house with a HUGE backyard! The 4 bedrooms are all decorated beautifully with queen size beds. The media room has a futon bed which can comfortably sleep one adult or 2 kids. The master bedroom is incredible! King size bed with practically a living room between the bed and Flatscreen TV. The master bath is beautifully decorated with it's own Jacuzzi tub and a private Jacuzzi outside the bath. The living room is HUGE with a baby grand piano and plenty of room to dance or just hang out. There is also a bar with a wine refrigerator. The kitchen is fully stocked with state of the art appliances including a pretty cool coffee machine! There is an incredible sound system throughout the house to play your music from your IPOD. You need to download the SONO app in order to play from your IPOD. Outside is spectacular! HUGE yard where you can run around or play football. It's surrounded by grapefruit and orange trees. The pool area is large with a shady area for people who want to stay out of the sun. The owners provided pool towels, sunscreen and magazines! There is a spa house that has a kitchen, fitness room and an area with tubs. It also has it's own sound system to play music by the pool. Even though it was pretty hot, we enjoyed the beautiful stars in the sky amongst the swaying palm trees at night with a nice glass of wine. I would definitely recommend this property! We had a really good time!

Fabulous Experience!

Spent 4 awesome days at the DuPont Estate 2/21-25. Had 15 people stay the entire time, with an additional 10 who joined for a 60th birthday party celebration. The compound provided plenty of room and activities for everyone. Some of the party never even left the property! The pool, hot tub and sauna were in use constantly. The evenings were cool so thoroughly enjoyed the living room fireplace which provided a nice warmth and ambiance. Being close to stores allowed for quick runs to pick items up. Very much enjoyed all the fresh fruit surrounding the property, and with 3 acres, there was plenty of ground to explore. We hired a chef and masseuse for the weekend so had great food and very relaxed by the time we left. The chef remarked how well equipped the kitchen was. The espresso machine was popular as well. Lynne and Rob are gracious property owners.

PARADISE ON EARTH

This is paradise! From the moment you enter the expansive living room, furnished in impeccable modernist style, with a white baby grand player piano tinkling in the background, you know hat this us no ordinary retreat destination. A huge expanse of windows open out into an immaculately groomed garden, with tastefully designed sitting areas, a gas fire pit, and a full sized pool and hot tub. Date trees tower over the lawn, and flowers and shrubs give color and shade. Inside, each bedroom has its own unique decor and accompanying bath, providing privacy within a communal setting. No detail, no matter how small, is overlooked. The kitchen is a dream, with every gadget and appliance imaginable. I especially loved with built in Melita coffee machine, and the spacious kitchen island was perfect for family cooking sessions. The master bedroom, with its state of the art shower room and Jacuzzi tub, is enhanced by the adjacent enclosed private outdoor space and hot tub . I lay in the tub for hours, looking at the stars, while my family cooked and played in the pool. I can not think of a better way to relax. The modernist furnishings have been chosen with exceptional care. The two while leather chaises that look out into the garden area are a treasure, accompanied by the arc of a period lamp, and a leather seating area facing the fireplace. Everything is easy but elegant, providing an incentive to breathe and unwind. Of course, the sauna/tub in the bathhouse is another option; there are so many ways to detoxify and breath into needed relaxation. I feel that the photos can not do the place justice. They can not capture the sweep of the lawn, or the spaciousness of the rooms inside.It is difficult to assess the elegance the home from the street, but the looking inward from the outdoor fire pit through the expanse of glass walls, one is amazed by the perfect modernist "Architectural Digest " look that has been achieved. The owner left us to our privacy, but was instantly available for any questions we might have.She even recommended the perfect nail salon, right around the corner! The pool and tubs were at a perfect temperature. The entire property is faultlessly groomed and maintained.My only sadness is that we had to depart, leaving Paradise with a hope to return. I would recommend Dupont Estates to anyone who appreciates a perfect vacation .

Your own sprawling resort

This place is spectacular. The grounds are beautiful--the pictures can't even begin to capture how much SPACE there is. We kept looking around in awe asking, is this really all for us? Fruit trees are everywhere with the dates and grapefruits being particular favorites. 10 of us stayed here for New Year's and there was more than enough room. The house is close to everything yet feels very far away. Very relaxing and picturesque. Lynne and Rob are so sweet and really want to make sure you have the best time possible. Looking forward to the next time stay already!

A GREAT RETREAT

First impressions are everything and what we saw when we arrived was incredible. The pictures do not do this property justice. We had a group of 9 staying at the porperty for a retreat and we all agreed that we will be back again. We had everything that we needed and more (from the pool, the table tennis (we used this a lot), the awesome spaces for meetings and socializing, a spa, great kitchens, a BBQ and fantastic rooms). A big thank you to the owners who really made us feel at home. We'll see you next year.
