This sophisticated and high style home, known as "AMIGO," is showcased on the cover of the 2009 Home and Design Issue of The Bottom Line Magazine. It is located less than a mile from the center of charming and beautiful downtown Palm Springs. AMIGO is walking distance to the convention center, the casino, or many restaurants, stores, and coffee shops. AMIGO is perfect for a get-away from your life at home - but is also equipped with WIFI, as well as an all in one printer/copier and fax machine, for those who need to do some business while enjoying the sunny relaxing desert lifestyle. The phone service comes with free long distance throughout the continental united states for calls as well as faxes.

Black slate floors and white beamed ceilings create a perfect backdrop for this art deco inspired home that was completely designed and furnished by "Aesthetics." The custom upholstered and professionally designed living room with fire and ice fireplace provides a great conversation and entertaining area. White raised panel cabinets, stainless steel GE profile appliances, 5 burner gas cook-top, under-cabinet lighting and black granite slab counters create a fully stocked and gorgeous cook's kitchen.

Imported pillow-edged white porcelain tiles line the walls to the ceiling in the main bathroom. The custom upholstered drapery, 1930's nickel plated wall sconces, and antique bamboo framed mirror make it a posh and pampering place to get ready for your day of shopping, afternoon game of tennis, or your night on the town.

The family room, with a 42" flat screen wired with surround sound, opens up to the manicured yard with sparkling pool. Very few homes have such a spectacular view of the San Jacinto mountains. The yard is block walled and gated for complete privacy and is lined with mature Ficus trees and accent lighting for entertaining day and night.

Both bedrooms are done in black and white with pops of color, chrome and crystal sconces, TV's with VCR and DVD, and sliding glass doors with access to the private pool yard. All rooms in the home, as well as the pool yard, are wired with different zones for the stereo system. Stereo plays AM/FM, CD's, or you can plug in your own i-pod or mp3 player.

Nothing has been left out or overlooked in appointing this centrally located posh vacation home. Grab your bags and come experience "AMIGO" for yourself!

Why the Owner Chose Ruth Hardy Park

I have owned and rented vacation rentals in Palm Springs for over 12 years now. I pride myself in knowing that the home has everything it could possibly need for someone to come to Palm Springs and thoroughly enjoy themselves and relax - without worrying about anything...

I specifically chose Ruth Hardy Park so that I would have the close proximity to downtown, the casino, and all the restaurants - yet be far enough out from the mountains so that I wouldn't lose the afternoon/evening sun too soon. Best of both worlds...

The Unique Benefits at this House

I am a solar panel - I thrive off of the sun - which is precisely why I chose Palm Springs to purchase a vacation home. Amigo has floor to ceiling windows in the family room that is flooded with light and provides an unparalleled mountain view at the same time. I love that the yard is completely walled and gated so that I can enjoy the pool and yard in complete privacy. And I also love that I am but a brisk one mile walk from the center of downtown Palm Springs - where I walk for morning coffee and afternoon cocktails...

 

Owner's Map of Ruth Hardy Park

I am a freelance architecture and interiors photographer from Seattle. I came to Palm Springs 13 years ago and fell in love with it. I designed and furnished "AMIGO" from top to bottom when we gutted and completely remodeled it 4 years ago. I am a perfectionist with an eye for detail, and I scoured the country for all the pieces, hardware, light fixtures, and artwork that all came together as "AMIGO"

    • We were absolutely delighted with this vacation rental. The charming home is tastefully decorated and appointed - it had everything we needed for a carefree home-away-from-home stay. The quiet neighborhood and private pool made for a very relaxing visit. We can't wait for a chance to come back and hope to be able to stay longer next time. Thanks, James!

    • This house made my Palm Springs birthday vacation. We picked it because it was affordable and cute. When we arrived, we were so excited that the pictures did not come close to how well-decorated the house was. The photos we took throughout the weekend could have been out of a Vouge photoshoot because of the beautiful backdrop Amigo provided. Pack your brightest bathing suit! I was there with 5 girlfriends and we never felt crowded. The pool area is spacious and the outdoor speakers that you can play your Ipod through really topped off the whole postive, relaxing trip. In summery, James is a gracious, prompt, and accomodating host. The prices are fair and the house is well appointed. We will be back!

    Jeff and Darla Stunna ,
    • Simply put - this home is incredible! It was even better than we had hoped it would be. The home was spotless and perfect and had everything we could have possibly needed to enjoy our two weeks in Palm Springs. The kitchen was a joy to cook in, the pool was heavenly, and walking to town for breakfast is something we never get to do in Canada. I would recommend this home for anyone considering a vacation to Palm Springs! Thank you James for taking such good care of us!
