About this property
The Modernist Retreat – Modernism Week Icon
P.S. City ID #069056 | Primary renter must be at least 25 years of age to rent (Proof of age required)
Fabulous remodeled designer property w/ that swank Palm Springs vibe, located in the popular Sunrise Park neighborhood. Stunning vacation home where classic mid mod architecture meets hi-style, designer aesthetic by famed modernist, Christopher Kennedy. Beds: K, K, T/T (can convert to K)
The oversized backyard is walled & gated for complete privacy. It features a saltwater pool w/ a tanning deck & integrated spa, lounge chairs, a Brazilian hammock, 3 covered outdoor living pavilions, a daybed, a fire pit, a BBQ grill, & more! Towering palm trees & breathtaking mountain views add to the magic of this spectacular property - it’s quintessential Palm Springs magic.
OUTDOOR LIVING SPACES
Completely walled for privacy. The meticulously cared for backyard features a large saltwater pool w/ a tanning deck & integrated spa, lounge chairs, shade umbrellas, 3 covered outdoor living pavilions (one w/ an elegant daybed), a fire pit, a BBQ grill, & a fun, retro cooler to keep your drinks ice cold. There’s also a Brazilian hammock nestled between the palm trees & surrounding landscape - perfect for lounging & taking in the stunning mountain views. The Modernist Retreat is is truly a vacation paradise.
** The pool will be heated upon request with an additional service fee. Please let us know if you'd like to heat the pool so we can ensure it is heated before your arrival. If you home has a spa or hot tub, heating the spa is included with your rental at no extra cost **
** Please Note: 1. This fee is not included in the quoted price on some booking platforms. 2. Pool heating may be added in minimum of 3 day blocks per request **
INDOOR LIVING SPACES
Gorgeous mid mod home where no detail has been overlooked. The owners of this property worked w/ award-winning designer, Christopher Kennedy (of Modernism Week Fame) to create this upscale, resort-like home that’s just dripping with style & fun with social media moments around every corner! The spacious free-flowing floor plan provides plenty of space for your entire group to gather & enjoy. Spectacular walls of glass blur the lines between indoor-outdoor living in true Palm Springs style.
Here, you’ll find all the upgrades you would expect to find in a luxury vacation home. New kitchen & bathrooms, high-end appliances, high-speed internet, plenty of charging stations - plus comfortable sleeping quarters w/ bedside remotes to turn the lights on/off without getting out of bed! It’s everything you could want on vacation, & more.
** The term "Pets Allowed” or “Pets Accepted" at an ACME House Company vacation rental means that we welcome dogs only. No other pets are allowed. **
SLEEPING QUARTERS
All bedrooms have been beautifully styled with that classic late 60s style. They feature gorgeous designer wallpaper, plenty of storage, comfortable, hotel-quality mattresses, & even bedside remotes to turn the lights on/off. The Primary Bedroom offers a King bed, ensuite bath & sliding doors to the pool. Guest Room 2 has a King bed & Guest Room 3 has two Twin beds (can convert to a King upon request). Both guest rooms share easy access to the bathroom in the hall.
THE LOCATION
This home is nestled in the Sunrise Park neighborhood, a quiet residential area of mostly mid mod properties built between the late 1950s & early 1970s - forever tied to the post-war building boom when life was simpler, neighbors waved hello & evening strolls were an important part of life. Today, Sunrise Park continues its legacy as one of our most sought-after residential neighborhoods in town - perfect for those looking for a quiet, relaxing vacation steeped in the midcentury magic of Palm Springs.
Centrally located, you’ll be close to fine restaurants, bars, and coffee houses for the discerning guest, but also a stone's throw away from those looking to kick back at your local sandwich shop or burger joint. The world-famous Palm Canyon Drive, the Casino, Convention Center, Ruth Hardy Park & the Hugh Kaptur Plaza are all just a short drive away. This is the ideal location for those who want to be nearby everything but a little bit removed to a quieter section of town.
