Check out all my 100+ reviews!

Why the gushing reviews? For starters, there’s the dreamy pool/hot-tub & fire pit front yard area with amazing close-up mountain views. Then, there’s that incredible decor both inside and out highlighting only the best of mid-century furniture and plain-air art collection. Surely, the ideal location in South Palm Springs, has something to do with it, too; the home is tucked between Deepwell and Warm Sands, putting you just a short walk or drive from , the downtown galleries, shops and Palm Springs restaurants. Finally, there are the sumptuous en-suite bedrooms, private and serene garden patio areas (8 in total!) guaranteeing that however you spend your Palm Springs days, your nights will be spent in pure star-gazing luxury. A true tranquil escape from the outside world.

This home is described as an idyllic home away from home, where it's in the top vacation rentals in Palm Springs, it's the winner of a Certificate of Excellence, and nearly 100% of the 100+ reviews are five-star. Guests wistfully recall afternoons cruising on bikes, lounging afternoons away at the pool or admiring the lovely and verdant gardens and 8 private patios. If you want to step into the spotlight, of course, you’re walking distance from town. But why would you leave, when the living’s so easy?

Enter through the front gate and arrive at your own private resort. A newly remodeled Pool/Hot-Tub/Fire-Pit with plenty of covered patio space for dining, relaxing with freshly landscaped grounds including mature trees, AMAZING gardens with plenty of space for sunning and beautiful mountain views.

Walls of glass in almost every room open onto the patio and pool area providing easy access and the ultimate indoor/outdoor desert experience. Outside there are several seating areas with ample shade and contemporary furniture for dining and relaxing. Whether throwing some shrimps on the gas barbecue, dining al fresco or just relaxing by the pool/hot-tub/fire-pit you’ll be sure to enjoy this completely private, quiet and relaxing desert oasis compound.
