Great backyard with private pool and spa, nice living spaces, and kitchen well stocked. But bathrooms could use a deep clean and updates as sinks were slow and no counter space, had to disinfect clothes washer as it was moldy and we needed to request new towels as sour smell did not go away, and AC is very loud when it turns on. Plus we had to pay the entire electric bill (over 700) when we never heated the pool and used the spa only 4 times). It may be ok for a short visit but for a two month rental, we have had much better for that price.

We enjoyed this house and Palm Springs

We stayed in February and March of 2022. Jerry, the management representative, was quick to respond to our requests. When we arrived we found everything in good order. The house was clean and well-supplied. The cookware in the kitchen was plentiful and new or near new. The Roke TV worked well, although the living room TV is a bit small by today's standards. The back yard is lovely. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub on a number of occasions, and just reclining in the sun was great. The grill worked well. The only drawback to this house is that it is located on a busy street and the bedrooms are on the street side of the house. We did get used to the traffic noise, but it might be an issue for some. We enjoyed our stay. The house is very near to the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, and this is an experience we highly recommend. At night, from the backyard, we could watch the dots of light that are the trams going up and down the mountain. Wonderful views.

Perfect Palm Springs Property

This house is exactly what you think of when you think ‘Palm Springs getaway’. It is beautifully and stylishly decorated. The pool and back yard are amazing. Beautiful landscaping, great cabana area. BBQ is great. The master bath has a door that leads directly to the yard. Pool is large enough to lap swim and perfect for floating. Perhaps the best part of this rental is how well appointed the kitchen is. Over the years I’ve learned to bring my blender, favorote Knife, etc. I didn’t even need to use these here. They even had a vegetable peeler and juicer. I tried to book this property again while we were there but it was all full. It is on a big and fast street. I live in Los Angeles, and it is typical of a residential thru street, but does have 4 lanes. We really didn’t hear the cars from the backyard or bedrooms.

Winter Escape Delight!

Nick's Palm Springs property offered us a terrific home base for enjoying the outdoors, which is always our goal for a winter escape. The house functions well for daily life as well as entertaining. The star of the show is the backyard. Spectacular! We loved the Mountain View’s from the patio table, the fire pit, or the pool/hot tub. There are options for sun or shade, and you can watch the tram going up & down the mountain at night under the stars.

Wonderful home in a great location.!

House is well appointed, gorgeous private backyard, pool and hot tub. We especially loved the fire pit and grill for dinners outside. We were only (4) people during our stay - anymore may be tight. Also, since we were here during Feb, we did not need air conditioning or heat so the noise from the busy street was very noticeable while sleeping.

Great back yard

The house was what we were looking for - a good back yard for kids to play in and adults to lounge in. This house has that covered. A big disappointment was the busy street it’s located on. I asked the property owner/manager about this and they said they’ve never had a complaint about it and you don’t even notice it from inside the house. False. The vehicles buzzing by at all hours of the day are very loud and noticeable. We had to be careful that our kids didn’t venture out the front door onto such a super busy, fast street.

Thank you for choosing to stay with us. I have been managing this house for for over 7 years not and my claim that we have not have a complain about street noise was not false. The house is on a street with no businesses and is not a major thoroughfare. I would not call it a "super busy, fast street" but I guess that is relevant to where you are coming from. Please continue to read the other reviews. Thank you

Great Property! 4.9!

Loved our stay at Desert Stars. The property was clean and well-kept. All appliances and fixtures were functional. The pool was perfect (pay for the heating — so worth it). Everyone was super-helpful and responded quickly to all inquiries during booking. They even catered to my special request to keep the pool heated late into the night. They made it easy, and I didn’t have to call them at all for anything during my stay. A couple kind suggestions for improvement are: updated bed linens and more lighting in the bedrooms — but that’s being super nit-picky. I truly thought it was fantastic for the price compared to other rentals I’ve been in. I would definitely stay here again.

Exactly as advertised!

We stayed for four nights earlier this month and absolutely loved the home! The yard and patio areas are to die for, and the kitchen and living spaces make it easy to cook at home or entertain. The master bedroom was very comfortable and we slept great every night. This home is very well-stocked with everything you could ever need, including utensils, condiments, extra towels and blankets, and a closet full of DVD's and various board games. Nick and his team were very responsive and friendly and I felt sure that if we encountered an issue, they would be there in an instant. We come to Palm Springs every spring and would happily stay here again without hesitation!

One of my favorite houses in the desert

I LOVED Desert Stars. A small mid-century house with an enormous back yard with a saltwater pool, a Jacuzzi, fireplace, a BBQ and many lounge chair areas. We spent most of the time in the pool and swam. The inside of the house had concrete floors and was well decorated. Everything worked perfectly and it was central to town. I would stay here again!

Excellent place to stay!

This house was very comfortable, very clean. The backyard was so much fun and perfect for day time and nighttime activities. I would recommend it! The one thing we couldn't figure out was the volume on the TV's in the bedrooms. It was either very quiet or very loud, and it kept adjusting on it's own, it was hilarious. Either way, this house was a great place to stay and I would love to stay here again, if ever in Palm Springs for another trip.
