The Amazing Neighborhood and Street:
The neighborhood is a classic Mid-Century Modern area with every house looking authentic and ready for a photo shoot. Vista Las Palmas is the only neighborhood in Palm Springs without power lines blocking the view of the beautiful mountains and palm trees. In addition, this street is so close to the mountains you could feel its presence, which is great for meditation and yoga - or a SELFIE. Its proximity to the base of the San Jacinto Mountains keeps it sheltered from much of the wind and means a quicker escape from the late afternoon sun. NO AIRPLANE NOISE
The location is close (1 mile or a 20 minute walk) to wonderful restaurants, the Uptown Design District and Downtown Palm Springs. It is also close to hiking, golf, tennis and a quick drive to Palm Desert. Whether your ideal Palm Springs vacation includes sports, shopping or relaxing, this home is convenient to all of it. The house is located within walking distance to the Elvis Honeymoon house and the Kaufman Desert house.

We had an excellent stay in this gorgeous property! We’ll be back next year. We’ve rented many P.S. homes over the years with zero repeats. We’ve now found our home-away-from-home.
This house is amazing. The photos do not do it justice. Trust me and book it. The outdoor space is so peaceful and inviting… pool, spa, and fire pit. I didn’t want to leave… used the BBQ instead of going out to a restaurant and enjoyed the warm desert breezes at the outdoor dining table. Check in was a breeze (ha) with a very kind gentleman Martinell who showed me everything I needed to know about the house. The neighborhood is quiet and walkable to downtown. I walked to Koffi every morning. Thank you for a wonderful stay. I will be back with my kids or friends next time… although part of me wants to keep this house to myself
This home is amazing! It's a remodeled Alexander in the best location. Honestly it's nicer in person than the pictures suggest. The home is immaculately restored. Well equipped, completely-upgraded and updated kitchen, wonderful mid-century furnishings. The yard is perfect--beautiful landscaping, the best views of the mountains, big pool, nice hot tub, outdoor dining, hammock, pergola, even a bocci ball court! We cannot wait to return.
Always a pleasure to stay here. The house is amazing and fully stocked with everything. The backyard has it all including the amazing views. Thanks for another relaxing stay.
We loved our stay at this home. The home is in a great location. We walked to the center of downtown every day. The kitchen was well stocked. The outdoor living area was ideally set up. The pool was a great size and very clean. We have rented many homes in Palm Springs over the years and this one has been our favorite.
We had a memorable stay at this true gem. The home is precisely as advertised: the reality matches the pictures. Its sleek, classic design holds true to its identity. Several highlights stand out:- Kitchen: Exceptionally well-provisioned with virtually every pot, pan, and utensil we needed, plus ample cooking staples (spices, oils, even champagne vinaigrette!). Perfect for our family who loves to cook and commune together.- Furniture: Mid-century in style (of course), well-built, and genuinely comfortable throughout.- Pool & grounds: Exactly as portrayed — No pano-induced shots here. It has a large backyard with plenty of seating, and it took us all of our two weeks to use each element (which we did, hammock included). - Views: The west-facing layout frames the mountains beautifully, greeting you daily with their many shades of sun-soaked wonder. The morning light is spectacular.Property management was excellent. Texts and emails were answered promptly, and check-in/check-out were handled in person with clear guidance on all the amenities — spa/hot tub, fire pit, and more. Vacation rentals in Palm Springs are well regulated, and the property managers and owners who participate take their responsibilities seriously, which we greatly appreciated. Our dealings with the owner were professional, courteous and very prompt. I liked his style.It was truly difficult to leave.
This was our second stay at this beautiful home and it has everything you could want and need. We had 3 generations that enjoyed the outdoor games, pool, spa, outdoor and indoor space, proximity to hiking and city walking. A perfect stay!
We just had a lovely 10 days in this lovely home (we’ve been renting this home now for many consecutive years and have already booked for next). The home is beautiful, spotless, well appointed, and comfortable in every respect. I highly recommend it.
This area of Palm Springs is so special...quiet...walkable to business area...great restaurant...the house is private...everything you would want in a vacation house is there...you won't be disappointed...
Really loved this property. Absolutely beautiful house and grounds with gorgeous views of the mountains. Also a big fan of this serene neighborhood. Host was so gracious leading up to my stay and throughout. Would happily stay here again.
The home, the outdoor spaces, amenities, location, views and experience were top notch all the way! We have stayed many places in the area and this is the best. Already planning our return. A family, ranging in age from 6 to 82, all declared it a stellar family vacation!
Had great time staying at Steve’s place celebrating our 25th Anniversary. Mid century home was sparkling clean with all essentials in order. Perfect location too! This was our second visit and we will be back for sure.
We had a wonderful time. Everything was beautiful and comfortable. Check in and check out was a breeze. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was well appointed, and the pool area was wonderful.
We had a fantastic stay at this property. The kitchen was well stocked, house comfortable and clean, and the pool and outdoor spaces were very nice. The mountain views are stunning, and proximity to town a plus. Neighbors were very friendly on our morning walks. The manager and local contact were great to work with, and very communicative.
