Amazing backyard paradise at this resort-like estate
VRBO Bear stayed here - 03/17/2010
When I arrived at this sprawling Palm Springs estate, I knew that I was in for a “beary” relaxing weekend. I took one step inside and I was greeted by the trickling sounds of a lovely wall fountain— just like my home in the woods! Ahhhh, peace at last.
The home is 4 bedroom, 3 ½ bathroom house so it’s plenty big for you and your cubs in tow. Everyone can find something to enjoy, whether it’s cooking up a feast in the chef’s kitchen, sitting by the fireplace in the living room, or exploring the backyard wonderland. I personally went straight to the back and enjoyed a game of beach volleyball with the family.
After the game, the cubs jumped into the gorgeous freshwater pool and that was my cue to hibernate. ‘Bear’ in mind, we had an extremely long flight, so I was quite jetlagged! I sank into the king size bed and the surround sound system lulled me to sleep. What astounded me most about this house was how cozy and warm it is considering its size— the cubs could be on one side playing while the rest of us were on the other side enjoying the fireplace.
This property truly has something for everyone and we couldn’t recommend it highly enough.

My husband and I were married here in October and stayed for a week at the estate as well. We had an amazing week- and a wonderful wedding here. I was so happy that we found this place - it was perfect! We live on the east coast (I am from the desert area) so because a lot of our wedding party was from the east coast we wanted to stay somewhere where we could also invite our wedding party to stay for the week. Our stay there was fantastic- they house is beautiful. Everything there is very sleek- clean- very impressive. Our wedding party loved staying there. The basketball court was a big hit and the pool and fire pits are incredible. The master bathroom is gorgeous. We never wanted to leave. If anything came up Arnold was there to make it work. He is so friendly and made our stay there very comfortable. The WEDDING- was beautiful. We didn't want to get married in a hotel- we wanted to get married in a place where we could choose the food, and the vendors and the pacing of the event. Our wedding felt very personal to us- not like us trying to fit into someone else's idea of how a wedding should be. We had about 120 guests and there was plenty of space for them, the photo booth, the buffet, the ceremony space and the dining area and a kids play area. Our guests loved the location as much as we did. The natural beauty of the home and the area made it so easy- we hardly had to put any work into decorating the home ourselves. Arnold has created an incredible event space- I felt like our wedding was gorgeous and a great representation of who we are. The outdoor bar is made for hosting events- the space is perfect and the amenities were very easy to work with. Arnold gave us wonderful recommendations to New Leaf Catering and party rental and valet companies. All of the vendors he recommended did a great job. I would absolutely stay there again- and I think it is a wonderful home for any event.

We had the Desert Chapel Christian High School Homecoming Party at the Galvan Estate last weekend and it was amazing! The property had EVERYTHING and more to make this event really something special. The layout and design of the home is perfect for entertaining. It is an oasis that you never have to leave, unless you are tired of cooking and want to eat out. The kids played basketball, volleyball, did some putt putt and swam in the oversized pool. The outdoor pavillion was great too. It was an awesome venue and we will return! Thanks to the Galvan family for making this estate available for private events!

My family and I live in Orange County and like to get away to what we call our "Palm Springs Party Pad"! We have stayed at this property three times with our parents and young kids and we LOVE IT! The property has everything you need, you literally don't have to leave the house. Arnold always roles out the red carpet and is always available to answer any of our questions/requests. I strongly recommend this property for any occasion. We will certainly be back next year!

Best Pool in Palm Springs
Guest: carol
(Incline Village/NV)
Date of Stay: 08/24/11
Review Submitted: 09/09/11
Wonderful property - my family of five (children ages 11, 9 & 6) and one set of grandparents fit very nicely into this immaculate, well decorated, almost new home. The kitchen had top of the line appliances (although we didn't do much cooking on our trip). The best thing about the property was the outdoors. The saltwater pool out back was nicer than you'd find in most small hotels. With the 115 degree heat outdoors, it was invaluable. I can imagine how nice it would be with the firepits on at night in the winter. The location is quite good, right at the bottom of the hill of the aerial tram. It's also just a short drive from downtown. If we were ever to return to Palm Springs, this would be the house we'd rent! The owner was very professional and helpful during the whole rental process.
