About this house rental
City ID #002406. Experience Iconic Palm Springs Living at this architecturally significant mid-century modern home, originally designed by famed California architects Palmer & Krisel and developer Robert Alexander. Fully renovated for today’s comfort while preserving its original charm, the home sits in Palm Springs’ celebrated Racquet Club Estates neighborhood, once home to the legendary Racquet Club Resort.
Timeless Mid-Century Design
The house showcases the hallmarks of desert modernism with an open floor plan, soaring vaulted ceilings beneath the iconic “butterfly” roofline, exposed tongue-and-groove beams, and dramatic floor-to-ceiling glass walls that flood the interiors with natural light. Every space has been thoughtfully updated to highlight these striking features while adding modern comforts.
Stylish Indoor Living
The open-concept kitchen is a chef’s delight, equipped with stainless steel appliances, a gas cooktop, Keurig, traditional and Nespresso coffee brewers, and all the essentials for cooking and entertaining. The living and dining areas offer direct mountain and garden views, with seamless indoor-outdoor flow through expansive glass walls.
The master suite is a true retreat, featuring a cozy gas fireplace, wall-mounted smart TV, private patio, and a luxurious en suite bath with dual vanities and an oversized step-down glass-tile shower. A walk-in closet with abundant custom storage makes it ideal for longer stays.
Furnishings throughout the home are inspired by mid-century design icons, including a curved low-back sofa, a Mies van der Rohe Barcelona chair, and raised platform beds with luxury mattresses and hotel-quality linens.
Outdoor Paradise
Designed for relaxation and entertaining, the desirable west-facing backyard offers sun all day and sweeping mountain views. Take a dip in the large Pebble-Tec® pool with gentle step-down access, lounge beneath swaying palms on adjustable chaises, or unwind in the spa with therapeutic jets.
A detached cabana extends the living space outdoors, complete with a natural gas BBQ grill, cooktop burner, prep sink, and a lighted dining area for alfresco meals. After dinner, gather in the outdoor sofas, mix a retro cocktail, and enjoy the fire pit under the stars.
As night falls, professional resort-style lighting transforms the backyard into a desert oasis, illuminating the palms and pool for a magical evening setting.

We had an incredible family getaway at this beautifully appointed home! From the moment we arrived, it felt like a true oasis. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, making our stay not only comfortable but also incredibly enjoyable.The décor was stunning—each room was beautifully decorated, paying homage to its mid-century heritage. The living spaces were inviting, and the outdoor spaces were perfect for our family gatherings. The kitchen and outdoor grill area were well equipped with everything we needed to prepare family meals. Outside, the pool was a highlight, complete with comfortable shaded seating and all the accessories for luxury lounging, truly a lovely, serene and inviting oasis. The location was also fantastic, providing easy access to local attractions while still feeling like a peaceful retreat. Our hosts were fabulous. Micheal’s communications from booking to departure were thoughtful and informative. Truly not wanting any of their guests to be without a thing, these hosts go above and beyond to insure a perfect retreat. 10/10 this home exceeded our expectations in every way. We left feeling rejuvenated and can't wait to return! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a perfect family vacation.

Our recent stay at the Desert Holly House was absolutely incredible. The house itself was amazing and beautifully designed, comfortable, and even better than we expected from the listing. What really stood out was the level of thought the hosts put into every detail. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that nothing had been overlooked. The furnishings were not only stylish but also functional and inviting. Every room had its own thoughtful touches that made our stay enjoyable and relaxing.It's rare to find a place where you can tell the hosts truly care. We would absolutely come back and highly recommend the Desert Holly House for anyone looking for a memorable Palm Springs getaway.
