My husband and I stayed at this beautiful home for 9 days. Our first time to Palm Springs. The home is wonderful and has a warm charm and character. Kitchen is fully stocked and the backyard is absolutely beautiful. We spent a lot of time in the pool, played some ping pong and crocket. Great location and close to downtown with all the amazing restaurants. Highly recommend this home and the host (Marcel) was wonderful!!

Great house great hosts great vacation

Loved our 2 wk stay. The yard and the pool were perfect for lazy afternoons after morning desert adventures. Location made it easy to head North to Joshua Tree & other desert hiking areas - but also super connected to downtown dining and shopping. Host was super responsive before & during our stay.

Palm Springs Holiday

The home was excellent for our family of four. The pool, hot tub and back yard space was perfect and allowed us to enjoy the Palm Springs weather. Home is in a quiet neighborhood but very close to Palm Spring downtown. Marcel, the VRBO was great and provided excellent recommendations.

The quintessential Palm Springs getaway!

We had a perfectly wonderful stay at this classic Palm Springs home. Inside and out, it was perfect for our two week stay. The outdoor pool area is so beautiful, private and quiet. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen well stocked with cookware, etc. Fabulous neighborhood. Marcel was a great host and very responsive. We would definitely stay here again!
