The Plum Guide Award is the global benchmark for exceptional vacation homes with state of the art amenities.

Enter through the majestic gates and up a 300' private driveway, to this secluded and very private ''Santorini Inspired'' estate that sits at the top of The Mesa in South Palm Springs. Sweeping panoramic views of the entire valley is only one of the many special highlights of this iconic Palm Springs estate. Originally designed and built by architect William Nicholson in 1977, the structure is a unique work of art. The property went thru a complete ''re-imagination'' and renovation 2018-2019. An abundance of natural elements were used in the renovation, including Curved plaster walls, softly domed ceilings, half-moon openings on the fireplaces, century old beams from a 120 yr old farmhouse, imported tiles from Greece including Thassos marble and white Agean limestone. Being offered ''turn-key furnished'', with designer furnishings and high-end appliances throughout. Published in Palm Springs Life Magazine in April 2019, the property has a celebrated history of iconic photo shoots and special events for Nordstroms, Boston Proper, Annie Selke, Pine Cone Hill, Dash & Albert and more. The estate sits on over 1 acre of land, including an adjacent .56 acre lot that can be used as an event experience.

Everything in this home was set up to offer a unique LUXE vacation rental experience. High end appliances. Designer Furniture. Breathtaking views. Fully automated pool and spa. Large event space. Personal concierge service to help you make dinner reservations or help you plan your Palm Springs vacation. Plus extra amenities for an added cost including: private chef that will design a full course meal right in the home; a personal chauffeur that will pick you up from the airport and shuttle you throughout the valley; a private masseuse that will give you a personal massage experience by the pool overlooking the Coachella Valley; and a private photoshoot experience that. This home is more than a vacation rental; it is a work of art unlike any other home in California!
