About the host

Hosted by Scott Howlett

Host profile image
Scott is the homeowner and will be happy to host you! He primarily lives in the Bay Area but spends as much time in Palm Springs as possible. The home is lovingly cared for by a dedicated local team, including a house manager who helps oversee guest needs and a housekeeper who keeps everything spotless. You can expect both comfort and attention to detail during your stay.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with The Mesa because it offers the best of both worlds — a peaceful, residential neighborhood at the base of the mountains, yet just minutes from downtown Palm Springs. It’s quiet, private, and feels like a true community rather than a tourist zone. For us, it’s the perfect setting: mornings by the pool with mountain views, evenings under the stars in total tranquility, and easy access whenever we want to enjoy Palm Springs dining and nightlife.

What makes this property unique

Many properties in Palm Springs feel like rental properties without the feeling of home. We actually live in the home as much as possible, so we equip it with the comforts you would expect at home. Cozy furnishings, beautiful sheets, pillows and mattresses, and everything you could need in a kitchen. We love for great guests to feel at home in PS!
