About this house rental
Our Original restored Palmer+Kriesel designed Alexander mid-century sits on 11000 square foot lot on a cul-de-sac and was featured in the New York Times 'Home section' entitled 'Desert Cool' and was a featured home on the 2024 Modernism Week Home Tour. Inside, you'll find classic modern treatments such as Eames tables and chairs, Case Study beds in both bedrooms, mixed with completely renovated bathrooms and kitchen with everything you’ll need. High vaulted ceilings and refinished flat cement flooring throughout with Design-Within-Reach throw rugs and FLOR tiles. The pool and surrounding deck have been completely updated including a new 400BTU pool heater. (The City of Palm Springs ID# 770.)
The Living Room features Hi-Definition DirectTV with movie channels (HBO and SHOWTIME), Apple TV, and a SONOS sound system. The master bedroom also features a wood-burning fireplace. Wall-to-wall sliding glass doors open to a kidney-shaped pool, surrounded by palm and olive trees. There's even a private outdoor lounging/eating covered patio, framed by Frosted resin panels. 2 separate in-ground gas fire pits, one by the pool and living area, and the other by the hot tub, provide some privacy even when together on the property.
The house features iconic pool loungers from Design-Within-Reach and Herman Miller, imported tile from Japan for the pool, a 50” LED Sony, and LG Washer/Dryers. The kitchen has also been updated with KitchenAid appliances, and we feature All-Clad stainless steel pots and pans. The hot tub is a top-of-the-line Hot Spring Spa with Moto-Massage® jets, complemented by a Quartet® jet system, to soothe your neck, shoulders, and back. It's comfortable seating, styled armrests, and SoothingStream® water feature provides maximum relaxation.
As of 2022, the house features a "whole house" Pentair water filtration system delivering bottled-water quality from every tap.
We also feature a new COYOTE outdoor Natural Gas Grill with RapidSear Infrared Burner & Rotisserie.
Both bathrooms feature TOTO sinks and toilets upgraded in 2022.
The 4-ton air conditioner was updated recently and controlled by a Nest Thermostat.
The bedrooms feature Modernica case study bedframes and HUE dimmable lights. The mattresses in both King & Queen bedrooms were updated recently.
THREE LOUNGING AREAS: Additionally, a third seclusive lounging area off the middle bedroom (away from the other areas) by the hot tub features original Balinese wood loungers. Overall - magical and relaxing...
COMPLETE PRIVACY: The house is located on one of the larger lots in the Racquet Club Estates and is completely enclosed and private (backyard, pool, spa, lounging areas).
GOLF + PARK: While 'true' golfer's probably won't want to use the clubs we make available, we do have an old set at the house for your use...in case you want to golf at one of the local public courses for fun.
Just one block away is a large grassy park with trees and benches, etc.
Located about 15 minutes from the airport, and less than five minutes from the center of Palm Springs center of restaurants, shops, and attractions.
In September 2021, the house was presented with a "Plum Guide Travel Award". Only the top 3% of vacation homes in each destination win the Plum Guide Award.
As a bonus, if available, we are happy to offer complementary early check-ins and late check-outs based on occupancy.
SQUEAKY CLEAN: We are here to make your stay relaxing and enjoyable, and we want our guests and team to feel safe. We are taking all the extra precautions as mandated by the city to keep the property Fresh & Clean for everyone - we've thought it through so that you don't have to.

Stayed for a week with my two teenagers during during their spring break. Plenty of privacy for everyone, very comfortable indoor and outdoor space. The house was clean and had absolutely everything we needed. Marcel was communicative, made navigating our stay very simple. I would definitely stay there again!

I throughly enjoyed my stay at this pleasant, convenient and comfortable mid century gem. It was clean and had everything you needed for a great vacation. The pool and hot tub were perfect. The host was attentive and even sent recommendations for weekend brunch places. Stayed 10 days and didn’t want to leave!

The host was very responsive and gave us insight on Palm Springs history. It was a step back into super skinny pants and pencil point brasseries.

We had a great stay for the long Memorial Day weekend. Property was clean, well furnished, and in a lovely neighborhood that we enjoyed walking through every morning. The owner was communicative and helpful to ensure we enjoyed our weekend. Thank you!

This trip will go down in memory as one of the easiest I've ever done, and Marcel/this home are a major reason for that! From the start, Marcel was easy to communicate with, and was able give us early check in as the place was vacant the night before. Everything about how to use the home is clear and updated, the home is clean, supplies (spices, towels, etc.) plentiful, and the outdoor space is on a cul-de-sac pie lot and is truly spectacular. We asked for the pool to be heated and spent much of our time chatting and floating around on the pool noodles. It's a 10 min uber ride to downtown and the airport. Beds were comfortable, area quiet. I look forward to returning here in the future. Thanks Marcel :)

The house was perfect. Pool hot tub location ✔️✔️✔️. Nice quiet neighborhood. Having the Sonos was a bonus. We’ll definitely look into staying here again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3-week stay at the house. It is as described and was very clean. The yard is the best - lots of space and the hot tub was delightful. We didn't use the pool as we didn't want to pay for the heat. Marcel, the owner, was very responsive. I gave a 4-star rating as the interior need some cosmetic repairs and a paint job (it looks like there was some water damage on the ceiling and around the base of the floor).

Absolutely an amazing place to relax and unwind.
Property is located in a beautiful ultra calm part of Palm Springs. Home is designed with great attention to all needs. We throughly enjoyed our stay and could not have asked for a better place to decompress. Marcel was beyond a gracious host…

We have stayed at a few places in Palm Springs and this is right up there with the others. Nice quiet cul de sac, great location close to down town but not too close. Spent a lot of time poolside. Just east relaxing place to recharge.

We stay in PS annually and try different neighborhoods and homes/hotels each time. This property was wonderful. Every detail to make your stay pleasant has been considered. The house is comfortable and promotes relaxation. Pool area and yard is private and lush with beautiful landscape. Areas to get full sun or shade as you desire. We loved the regular visits by hummingbirds throughout the day. Neighborhood was quiet and well maintained. Everything you need for cooking or bbq’ing was available. I loved the Spark grill. Communication with Marcel was excellent and he really cares about you enjoying your stay. I will definitely stay here again and look forward to booking my next visit.

Marcel is a fantastic host and his property was the perfect place for our group of 5 to get away for a weekend of relaxation by the pool. Some highlights were the pool area (with chairs, umbrellas, floating toys, etc.), the well-appointed bedroom and living areas, and a kitchen with complete any kitchen tool you can think of. The kitchen had everything, a blender, multiple stainless pans, and even a small pot for making poached eggs (just to name a few things). We love to cook and we had all of the conveniences of our own home. The bedrooms were very clean and comfortable and the AC felt amazing in the hot dessert heat. If you enjoy midcentury architecture and style, you'll love Marcel's home!

Amazing Family Vacation
This house was absolutely fantastic for our 6 night stay in Palm Springs with grandparents and 2 kids. We loved the mid century architecture and furnishings, the huge outdoor space, and the fantastic pool. There were lots of spots to gather outside in the shade and the sun. Downtown Palm Springs is close by with great restaurants. The aerial tramway and night visit to the zoo were really fun outings. Also Marcel was very kind and provided plenty of information. This is an excellent place to stay!

We loved our stay at Marcel’s place! Pool was clean and delightful. Comfortable beds and a well stocked kitchen were above expectations. Great mid century modern feel and great neighborhood. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Palm Springs and wants to opt for a house over a hotel.

My husband and I had a great "work from a different home" vacation here! The house and neighborhood are the quintessential mid century Palm Springs experience. So fun to walk around and see all the different house designs. Comfy bed, well-stocked kitchen and the pool and yard were wonderful. Glad we chose to heat the pool. Temperatures weren't that warm in Feb, but still got to swim every day. Hoping to return next year!

The quintessential Palm Springs getaway!
We had a perfectly wonderful stay at this classic Palm Springs home. Inside and out, it was perfect for our two week stay. The outdoor pool area is so beautiful, private and quiet. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen well stocked with cookware, etc. Fabulous neighborhood. Marcel was a great host and very responsive. We would definitely stay here again!

I spent a week in this lovely home. The host communication was excellent and very responsive. The location is super quiet, at the end of a cul de sac. The yard is spacious with several different spots to to sit both in and out of the sun. I paid extra to heat the pool and I would recommend that to other guests; theres nothing like taking a dip under the desert stars!

Everything from check in to check out was wonderful. Marcel was super responsive and helpful. Home has a great open layout and surprisingly large backyard. Perfect for our family of 4 and small dog. Kids lived in the pool and it is easy to be together but not on top of each other from various lounging areas and living room with the wall to wall sliding glass doors. Don’t forget to bring your own shampoo and shower soap, we got some from the 7-11 down the street and left what we didn’t use but it’s not provided by the host. Would stay again if the opportunity arose! Thanks again!

This is a lovely spot, perfect for a quick getaway from LA. House and amenities are great, stylish and comfortable.
There’s strict noise rules that the city has in place, so not a spot for a party but for chilled relax it’s like having your own private resort.
Owners were lovely, communicative and helpful. Highly recommend.
