This place is great. Perfect location for walking into Downtown and for dinners. The pool setup is beautiful with some shade all day. Clean and comfy all around. Lots of room. This is the second time we have stayed and will stay again. Only comment: the hot tub could be warmer - especially on a windy day. Thanks again!
Outdoor pool and jacuzzi area was beautiful, peaceful and a perfect haven for family of ten. Bedroom setup also perfect for multigeneration, two families. And kitchen was wonderfully stocked and dining area perfect. The house was cozy and had perfect flow. The setting, neighborhood and proximity to downtown Palm Springs worked out great! Communication with Clare was very good and she responded quickly to questions. We look forward to returning.
the outdoor wood deck is in need of repair. Uneven surfaces and exposed nails make deck shoes a must. Steps leading out of the house onto the deck are difficult to see and led to several near falls - up and down. Some yellow tape on the edge would be a great help.
Beautiful spacious home with everything you would need! Clare was very responsive to questions! This was a “girls” trip and we plan on coming back next year!
Great stay! Host was very communicative and responded quickly. House was great for our group of 8. Kitchen was very well stocked, more than other rentals we have stayed in. Outdoor area was great. Would definitely consider this property for a future stay. You wont be disappointed!
This was a family (6 sisters/cousins) get together, we travel to a different location each year. We loved the house, kitchen and all of the bedrooms. The pool and hot tub and patio were amazing. Location was great also Regina the house manager was top notch-so attentive to every request.
This is a beautiful home and property, very quiet and private and located close to downtown. Clare was great to work with and super responsive. I have stayed in a few homes in PS and this is by far my favorite. We will be back!
Stayed with family to celebrate our 50th anniversary. Age range from teenagers to 70’s. House had space and activities for all to enjoy. Large backyard as well.Very quite area.
It's the perfect set up for us. private rooms and bathrooms. large kitchen , dinning and living areas for visiting. we even used the hot tub this year We love it!!!!
The property was beautiful, clean, and spacious. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and putting green. The chaise lounges, hammock chairs, furniture, and beds were all super comfortable. There were plenty of communal areas and a huge kitchen for family gatherings and meals. Noise didn’t carry easily throughout the house or between rooms so folks slept in or arose early as they pleased. Everyone had a wonderful and relaxing time. We would love to stay in this home again!
This was the perfect place for our family of nine. The property is beautiful with lots of areas for relaxing, reading, cooking, and hanging out. Highly recommended!

About the host
Hosted by Clare Mc Ternan
I am originally from Ireland but have spent more than 30 years in California. I fell in love with this property the minute I saw it! The views were incredible and I loved the huge private garden where all we can see are the trees and the mountains. Being in Little Tuscany, the property had a sort of Tuscan modern vibe, which I loved. The huge open kitchen was a real showstopper, and the style was so unique and different from other properties I had seen. I loved the fact that we can be in town in minutes and even take the Buzz trolley which stops 5 minutes away. We came up with the name Villa Amelita from a combination of my daughter's middle name (Amelie) and my son's name (Liam). We hope our guests enjoy our little piece of paradise as much as we do!!
