December Rates! Private Stunning Iconic MCM Oasis-Saltwater Pool, Spa, Mtn Views

Enjoy a special relaxing escape with our December rates. And book now for the winter and spring!
Our Mid-Century Modern home is the perfect getaway with all the conveniences of home with a spacious, private backyard with saltwater pool and spa. The home has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a large fully stocked kitchen, dining room and two living areas, plus outdoor dining- everything you need for a relaxing stay.

Located in the Racquet Club Estates, this Alexander home is in one of the premier neighborhoods in Palm Springs, rich with history and midcentury modern architecture. Our renovations retain many of the unique midcentury features of original home now blended with completely updated amenities and comforts for a memorable visit. The main living areas are awash in light and are bright and cheerful, all designed for easy outdoor indoor living. The home is well-appointed with Mid-Century furniture.
The backyard is a true oasis. The oversized yard offers a new saltwater pool and spa and lush desert vegetation - all totally private – everything you need to take in the Palm Springs sun and warmth, with spectacular views of the San Jacinto mountains. You’ll enjoy chaise lounges, shade umbrellas, dining al fresco under the pergola, and seating by the fire. The abundant grapefruit tree provides juicy, delicious fruit and amazing juice, juicer included!

A note about California's new vacation rental fee laws: The only additional fees you will be charged when you book are the City taxes and the fee charged to you and retained by VRBO.
If you wish to have the pool heated, which is optional, there is a per night fee which we handle closer to your arrival when you know what the local temperatures will be.

INSIDE LIVING
Our home is designed to be the ideal desert getaway. Many were built as vacation homes for the Hollywood stars and these iconic Alexander homes have been welcoming people to the desert throughout their history. We welcome all and want you to enjoy and relax.

The original 1,225 square foot home was enlarged many years ago enclosing the breezeway and original carport to house a kitchen and dining room, giving it much more interior living space than the typical Alexander home. The interior living spaces make it easy for spending time with your group or time for yourself. The oversized living space is spacious and bright with two separate but connected seating areas, including a 'den' area with seating and a 55” smart television. There are lots of books in different genres to enjoy during your stay and several board and table games, as well as a ping pong table under the carport.

The living areas and kitchen and dining areas all open to amazing pool and mountain views. The kitchen and dining area include dining for at least six plus two large bar areas with additional seating. The kitchen island is huge –the perfect place for gathering or prepping. The appliances, large and small, are all new. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking, baking or just warming up something from one of Palm Springs many wonderful restaurants. The abundant ruby red grapefruit tree offers delicious fruit and amazing juice for cocktails by the pool, juicer included! A Meyer lemon tree offers wonderful fruit in late November – December. Please enjoy the fruits if they are ripe.

We wanted to make sure you sleep well...all three bedrooms have plush, super comfy mattresses and fresh, natural cotton bedding. All the bedrooms have large closets. The master bedroom has a king bed, private bathroom with its own door to the pool and backyard. Each of the other bedrooms have queen beds and share the second bath. The bathrooms are updated while retaining their original 1959 footprint. We upgraded the master bath with walk-in shower; it was hard for historic reasons to let go of the 'sunken' tub, but safety and today's preferences made this a good decision.

For convenience, there are small desks in several rooms and Wi-Fi is included and easy to access.

We provide all cotton pool towels and linens. There is a full-sized washer and dryer. The new energy efficient AC and heating system allow you to control the living space to your comfort.

OUTSIDE
As comfortable as the interior spaces are, the yard is the place to be. It is entirely enclosed and gated with wonderful, lush landscaping - all meticulously maintained and designed to have something in bloom throughout the year. The entire space is yours to lounge and enjoy the spectacular Palm Springs sun – and stars. We offer several different spaces to enjoy your time here. The saltwater pool and spa are the high point surrounded with shade umbrellas, chaise lounge, a cozy swing chair, more chairs and side tables. You can enjoy evenings around the fire pit on comfortable seating for a brilliant star show. The patio includes a pergola with seating to enjoy dining al fresco, along with a grill for outdoor cooking.

The pool can be heated for an additional charge which you can decide close to your stay. Pool charges are $60/ night of stay, or $340 for 7 nights: Pool heat is optional.

LOCATION
Our home is just minutes from downtown- with all its shops, boutiques, galleries and a wonderful art museum. The casino, convention center, dance and entertainment are all within a mile or two. The tram is very close to our house and the Palm Springs Air Museum makes an interesting visit to see some vintage aircraft. There are many, many local hikes, including Indian Canyon Lands and Tahquitz Canyon. Albertson’s is just a mile from our home. Right around the corner from our house is a local park. In less than an hour, you can visit in Joshua Tree National Park.

Fun Mid Century with Pool & Spa
We loved this property. Our group of 4 had plenty of room, I think a group of 6 would still have plenty of room. Nicely renovated with all the modern amenities and fun mid century style. The furniture was comfortable, I loved the bed in the primary bedroom. Beautiful pool and spa with loveley outdoor seating and dining spaces. Very close to all Palm Springs has to offer. Most activities were within 10 minutes drive from the house. Well stocked with everything you need.

Beautiful house in great location!
Beautiful '50s style house with large sliding glass doors opening onto gorgeous pool area with views of the mountains. Perfect location in a quiet neighborhood - 5 minutes from the downtown area, 10 minutes from the airport, 15 minutes from beautiful hiking. Nice open plan layout with well appointed kitchen and dining area, although with so many great restaurants in town cooking is definitely optional. Great spot for a vacation that can be as relaxing or active as you want!

Impressed Again!
This is our third stay at this lovely rental in Palm Springs. It was so great to leave the cold weather behind in exchange for sunshine, hiking, swimming and relaxing around the pool. The striking home is extremely clean, well-decorated, uncluttered and thoughtfully supplied. The beautiful backyard with grill, pool, spa and a firepit is amazing and we were able to pick fresh fruit for breakfast off of the trees! The neighborhood is quiet yet close to downtown and not far from the airport. The communication with the manager and owners was excellent and the check-in smooth despite our flight delays. We definitely plan to return; thanks again Dean and Deb!

Amazing Stay at a Perfect Home
My family spent Christmas and New Year’s here and it was perfect! The home is exactly as pictured, and so much better in real life. We spent almost all of our time lounging around the pool, hot tub and fire pit area - The backyard is amazing and the pool is incredible! We had the pool heated, and even when it was 65 degrees outside, the pool was very warm and we swam without feeling cold. The landscaping around the pool is so beautiful and instantly helps you relax… It felt so luxurious in the backyard. My favorite was sitting in the spa, looking out around the yard while soaking in the mountain views. What you cannot tell from the photos is the vastness of the mountain views! The backyard also has an orange, lime, grapefruit and lemon tree - Grapefruit and lemon were in season. It was so much fun picking grapefruit with our little girls! The owners provided all of the basics you would expect when renting a home, and aside from food and beverages, the home was stocked with everything we needed. Location was great. Home was incredibly clean. Bedrooms are all very nicely sized and the beds were all very comfortable. This is an amazing home. If you’re contemplating properties select this one. Everyone we shared photos with was blown away! The owners of the home were incredibly hospitable and made our vacation even better. It’s a great feeling to rent a home on a long family vacation and leave having zero complaints. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with our family!

Nice home
Dean & Deb's home was beautiful! It looked like the pictures. The home was neat and tidy upon our arrival. Dean & Deb (D&D) responded quickly anytime I reached out. The property manager, however, was not the best with responding. The one thing that was not enjoyable was the temperature in the home. D&D requested that the thermostat be set no lower than 75 degrees in order to not cause the system to crash. When I reached out to them informing them that it was very hot, they were responsive and helpful in trying to find a solution. They gave me several options that helped a little. But I must be honest and say that the rooms were very hot and uncomfortable, even with the solutions they gave me. Perhaps, because of the heat wave they were experiencing. Other than the temperature, the home was beautiful and a great experience. The pool was amazing - especially being a salt water pool! The location of the home was wonderful - in a nice neighborhood, not far from town. Thanks, Dean & Deb for having me at your home!

If you desire a very nostalgic and vintage property in Palm Springs, then this is for you. It is a lovely place filled with old school PS architecture and furnishings. Very awesome. The only point as far as comfort that I would say needs improvement is the AC. I need to get a good nights rest in order to enjoy the entire day out in the pool and activity area but we could not set the AC lower than 75 degrees. It was hot. Bring many fans so you can rest. Otherwise, this was the most beautiful property.

Loved the calm desert vibes
This property was extremely clean and comfortable for four people, all adults. The property manager and owners were very communicative and though I did not need their help while on site, I felt that I could get any help I needed based on their response time and all the information they gave me prior to check in. The pool and backyard at this property was amazing. We had no particular plans for our long weekend, but once we parked ourselves in by the pool and in front of the mountain views, we did not budge for three straight days. Only left to get food! The house is well maintained and extremely private. We didn't feel in the way of each other and the neighbors must have been a half a world away because we never made or heard a peep. It was like having a vacation sanctuary. 100% would stay again. If you want a place to decompress and let your daily world melt away, I highly recommend.
