—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.

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!

this place is so close to the ace hotel, which was great for pride celebrations. it was a long but easy walk into downtown. the house was really great for shared meals and hanging out at the pool all day, which is what palm springs is really for.
4.8
We’d definitely stay here again. There listing said it allowed pets and then we were told after booking (nonrefundable booking) that pets were no longer allowed. Outside of that, great experience.

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!

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!

Spacious house for our yearly Palm Springs trip with a ton of natural light coming through the windows. Close to downtown which was a plus. Thank you Zach for sharing your lovely home with us.

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!

This is my second year in a row at this property. Comfortably suited my party of 6 (with 2 dogs). Very clean with a retro chic vibe. Located in a spot in Palm Springs with central access to everything. Hated having to go home.
4.8
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.
4.8
Beautiful house with all amenities in a quiet, historical neighborhood. Walking distance to several eateries and coffee shops. Very relaxing stay.

Classic mid-century modern house in excellent neighborhood. House is well appointed and bright; it has been updated in the spirit of the original design.

This house was perfect for our group and very comfortable. We loved being in Twin Palms and walking around the quiet streets at night looking at the incredible houses. The heated pool is well worth the cost, and Zach was easy to communicate with. Thanks!

Love the location/neighborhood and architectural style of the house. Can tell the owners did a nice job of the original renovation, but its a bit faded outside (paint peeling, patio furniture faded/stained) and inside (cracked vanity, well worn furniture/furnishings). It was a nice stay, but for the upper end of the price range had expected a bit higher end condition.

Great Palm Springs Home

This property met my expectations. The main issue was the noise ordinance. We were four adult women who had planned a weekend of rest and relaxation, we had no intent to play loud music, have a party, or disrupt the neighbors. I understood the noise ordinance at the time of booking. The problem was that I signed the agreement at booking and then was emailed multiple times to sign again and again. I was warned many times about this ordinance, ensuring compliance. The amount of notifications put a damper on the stay before we arrived. The warnings of fines and grumpy neighbors was excessive. We felt like we had to tiptoe around the back yard even during the day. The other minor complaint was the front door lock, the code was 10 digits (which made it hard to remember) and the lock was finicky, resulting in multiple attempts to get inside the house.

This was two firsts: a visit to Palm Springs, and staying in a vacation home. We splurged a little on this one, and have no regrets. Main goal was to relax with family, and the mission was accomplished. The back yard was very inviting to hang out and visit, or just chill with a book. Ownership pride was evident; we really loved architecture of the neighborhood and wondering around it. Location was great, and owner Zach was super prompt on comms. Vrbo made it easy. Recommended!

Our family went to Palm Springs for Thanksgiving and I wanted an authentic mid-century modern house to stay in. We had 6 adults and a small child and this house was perfect. Wonderfully redone and updated to a high standard. Very comfortable for a group and so authentic. For architecture buffs, this is a "big butterfly" Alexander house in the Twin Palms subdivision. It does not get better than that.
The kitchen was nicely done with new appliances and well stocked. The Casita is perfect if you have family members that need a bit of space. The backyard is wonderful to get some sun during the day and there is a firepit to gather around at night. The landscaping is top notch as well. Through the clerestory windows in the master you can see the mountains in the daytime and the stars at night. 10 foot + ceilings in the master bedroom and bath.
You will not be disappointed with this property!
