About this house rental

Welcome to Bubble Gum Modern: Mid-Century Alexander — your playful, sunshine-filled escape designed for an authentic Palm Springs experience. Bright, fun, and fabulously comfortable, this iconic Alexander home blends retro character with modern convenience for the perfect midcentury getaway. Enjoy a private resort-style yard, mountain views, and stylish indoor living made for relaxing with your favorite people. Beds: K, K, T/T (can convert T/T to K).

Fabulous resort-style pool yard fully walled for privacy. Sparkling kidney-shaped pool and spa. Swanky outdoor bar. Multiple fire features. Loads of sunshine and mountain views that set the tone for long, easy days by the water. This home was even featured on the 2018 Modernism Week Home Tours — a testament to its design pedigree and photo-ready vibe.

A PART OF PALM SPRINGS HISTORY This classic Palm Springs pool home was built by the iconic Alexander Construction Company in 1960. It has been lovingly restored to celebrate its midcentury roots while elevating the comfort level for today's traveler. Original design elements like the post-and-beam ceilings, flat roofline, and open-concept floor plan remain — now enhanced with high-speed internet, updated heating and cooling, and four flat-screen TVs. A beautifully preserved piece of architectural history, thoughtfully updated for modern living — delivering that nostalgic-meets-next-century Palm Springs experience guests love.

OUTDOOR LIVING SPACES Step into pure Palm Springs outdoor living. The yard is private, spacious, and oriented around stunning mountain views. Lounge by the kidney-shaped pool, relax in the spa, freshen up in the outdoor shower, or enjoy cocktails at the outdoor bar with its own fire feature. Alfresco dining, BBQ grilling, and a separate firepit lounge make it easy to spend your entire day outside, soaking in the desert sun and the glow of star-filled evenings. ** The pool will be heated upon request with an additional service fee. Please let us know if you'd like to heat the pool so we can ensure it is heated before your arrival. If you home has a spa or hot tub, heating the spa is included with your rental at no extra cost ** ** Please Note: 1. This fee is not included in the quoted price on some booking platforms. 2. Pool heating may be added in minimum of 3 day blocks per request **

INDOOR LIVING SPACES Inside, this designer home is bright, open, and filled with cheerful midcentury energy. Vaulted ceilings and walls of glass invite in natural light and create a seamless indoor–outdoor flow. Pops of color, curated artwork, and playful decor make the home feel fun and uplifting — a perfect backdrop for photos and group gatherings. The well-stocked kitchen opens to the living and dining areas, making it easy to cook, entertain, or unwind together after a day in the sun. ** The term "Pets Allowed” or “Pets Accepted" at our vacation rental means that we welcome dogs only. No other pets are allowed. **

SLEEPING QUARTERS Each bedroom feels like a boutique hotel retreat, complete with comfortable mattresses, smart TVs, ample storage, and access to a private courtyard. The Primary Suite features a king bed, ensuite bath, and direct pool access for the ultimate morning swim or evening soak. Two Guest Rooms share a hall bath — each offering a king bed, with one room able to convert to two twins for added flexibility.

​​​​​​​THE LOCATION Located in Racquet Club Estates, one of Palm Springs' most iconic midcentury neighborhoods, this home places you close to everything. The airport, convention center, and casino are minutes away, and you're less than a mile from world-famous Palm Canyon Drive, where restaurants, boutiques, galleries, nightlife, and coffee shops line the vibrant corridor. Grocery stores and everyday conveniences are also nearby — making this both a stylish and incredibly practical home base for your Palm Springs stay.

We had a great time at the Bubble Gum house! The spacious backyard with the pool, hot tub and multiple seating areas was PERFECT. The kitchen was well stocked and there was coffee (coffee pot has a reusable filter) and tea. We did get a bit warm during the evening since the air does not go below 74, but it was not unbearable. The neighborhood is the perfect mix of mid century modern houses and Steve McQueen’s home was one block over. Such a fun time and we recommend doing the Aerial tram, Joshua Tree NP, and eating at High Moon for brunch.
