About this house rental

This modern Mid-Century Alexander Butterfly home was featured in "CA Modern Magazine" and 2012 Modernism Week tours. Renovated inside and out, this stunning 1960 Alexander butterfly-roof home pays homage to the past while looking to the future. This architecturally important home perfectly blends the mid-century aesthetic with updated amenities including all the modern comforts and conveniences available to deliver the very best of both worlds! Developed by an award winning designer, the home provides seamless integration of indoor and outdoor living spaces. It's the perfect retreat to enjoy the Palm Springs lifestyle with friends or family.

The light, bright open living area flows into the patio and pool area creating a sense of openness not often found in similar mid-century homes. A complete outdoor kitchen, lounge and dining area expand your living area, almost doubling the usable living space. Relax in the spa, gather round the fire pit in the evening or take a swim in the refreshing pool (pool heat is an optional/additional charge. See house rules for additional information) with waterfall features. Private outdoor lounge areas off each bedroom give you a private area to enjoy a morning cup of coffee or an intimate moment to curl up with a book or that special someone.

As you enter thru the private and gated courtyard you are struck by the sense of openness and light. From the marble floors, floor to ceiling windows, the Wenge/Stainless/Caesarstone kitchen, or the large open living area with fireplace and super-slim 52-inch LED TV with surround-sound stereo, you feel like you've walked into a high-end boutique hotel. The open concept living area allows you to accommodate a crowd and not feel cramped. 

Push back the 14-foot sliding glass wall to create the classic Palm Springs indoor/outdoor lifestyle.

Enjoy dinner or cocktails under the covered outdoor lounge and dining area. Misters in the summer and heaters in the winter make the outdoors enjoyable all day, every day and give you over 1,800 sq. ft. of usable living space year round. The granite and stainless outdoor kitchen with sink, fridge and gas grill make dinners or entertaining a breeze! The outdoor shower and bathroom provide an extra level of luxury and convenience.

Each bedroom is designed for comfort and privacy with its own private outdoor lounge area. Curl up in the 100% cotton sheets or step outside to read a book in your outdoor lounge. There is queen bed in one guest room, 2 double (full-size) in the other, while the primary suite offers a King bed with Bear mattress. Extra blankets and pillows are in the closet if you need them! Washer and dryer are conveniently located in the garage for longer stays or unexpected messes.

The newly renovated bathrooms provide a spa-like experience. Relax in the expanded master bath walk-in shower complete with body jets and rain shower head or take a soak in the tub. Fully tiled from floor to ceiling with beautiful brushed nickel fixtures, this bathroom sparkles with luxury. The guest bathroom features a large walk-in shower with custom mosaic and floor to ceiling tile that finishes off the look. Clean, contemporary and modern.

Located in historic Racquet Club Estates, the birthplace of the Alexander mid-century aesthetic, you're just minutes from downtown, the airport and restaurants.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very nice property, nice location, comfortable beds, good size bedrooms and nice amenities overall. The caretaker was a gem- truly kind, thoughtful and attentive. I would absolutely recommend this place.Two observations- with no intent to **** with faint praise. First,the outdoor property furniture is a bit tired. The outdoor table is stained and sun damaged and even if you clean it (it was very clean) it doesn’t look it. Same with the chairs. Just makes the prospect of eating outside unappealing .Second, the outside sprinkler system sprays water on the lawn chairs/recliners, which are too bulky to move (and there is nowhere to move them to). The are also rope (which takes hours to dry) and hugely uncomfortable. If I am harping on this, it is because it makes it difficult to really enjoy the lovely yard and pool. The sprinkler system goes on early every morning- and because we were there in cool weather, they were damp and unusable well into the late afternoon. Minor fixes, but they would make a difference. But as I said- great property and lovely people!

We got lots of good cooking done at this house and the living room is perfect for relaxing. It’s in a great part of town. We can’t wait to come back

This was a great spot for a friends weekend. We were staying together and away from the public during Covid and this house had everything to make a social distanced stay comfortable. near grocery store so we were able to do one big shop and forget about going out in public for the rest of the weekend. Only complaint is the hot tub was finicky. Working well one day, then the coldest day (55 degrees) it just stopped heating up. Otherwise a great stay.Rental company was very responsive when I left an article of clothing at the house after exit and found it and shipped it back to me. very grateful for their efforts.
