About this property

Azahara, a Desert Retreat: 50' Pool - Spa - BBQ - Views

Escape to our tranquil ranch-style home in Palm Springs. Splash in the 50' pool, complete with spa and tanning bench, surrounded by citrus, bougainvillea, and jasmine. Glass doors invite the outside in: step onto the shaded patio to dine alfresco — or lie out in the full sun. Socialize indoors in the open-layout living area, then nap in bedrooms painted in calm adobe colors. In the evening, admire a stunning mountain view, and at night, watch the yard flicker with subtle rainbow colors.

Our three-bedroom, two-bath home offers a desert retreat with mountain views from the front and the back of the property. Decorated in earth tones and images of the Southwest, it’s filled with golden Southern Calfornia light.

The fully-equipped kitchen includes a gas range, microwave, refrigerator, and dishwasher. A window over the kitchen sink looks out at the pool and the open space beyond. A large countertop open to the living room lets the chef stay part of the action and makes a great breakfast bar. And an outdoor gas grill is ready for your favorite barbecue.

The living room includes a 55" Smart TV for bingeing on your favorite shows. The dining table stands between two glass doors, bringing the outdoors inside. And at the front door, an automated Brinks security system gives you peace of mind.

The master bedroom has a king bed while the other two have queen beds. Each includes a full closet with inset shelves and drawers. And each bedroom has a view: the master bedroom looks out at the pool and open space, while the other two have face the mountains.

You’ll probably want a car when you visit us, although taxi and app-based services are excellent in Palm Springs. The city allows you to have up to three cars, one parked in the garage and two in the driveway. The spacious garage has an electric door, plus an entry directly into the house convenient for loading and unloading. You’ll find a washer and dryer in the garage as well.

The Palm Springs airport is only 5 minutes away, and downtown about 7 minutes. We are only a block from Vista Chino, with supermarkets and restaurants just down the street. Also nearby is the Escena golf club, whose outdoor restaurant offers stunning views.

People have asked us, why "Casa Azahara"? Well... we love citrus trees, and "azahar" is the Spanish/Arabic word for orange blossom. It also means bright and shining, like the sunlight in Palm Springs, and is the name of a famous medieval palace in Spain. Our logo is based on the beautiful arches that appear throughout the ruins there.

Please note that the pool is heated for a daily fee that varies by season. If you choose not to heat the pool, there is no cost to heat the jacuzzi as long as you run it for 4 hours or less per day.

Our insurance company requires us to tell you that use of the swimming pool, jacuzzi, BBQ and other features is at your own risk. Please practice safety measures while using these features at all times and always supervise your children.

Spring break oasis!
Our family enjoyed a fabulous week at Casa Azahara! The home is very comfortable and well stocked! The binder of instructions is great and everything was easy to use. The backyard is amazing!! We had the pool heated and enjoyed many hours floating, swimming or unwinding in the hot tub. The home’s decor is very inviting and we really enjoyed our stay.

Very comfortable and clean house. Owners were outstanding in availability to answer and assist any and all questions on check in and taking the anxiety out of that process of arriving at a new place. Pool and yard well maintained. Kitchen well stocked.

About the host

Hosted by Juan Ochoa

Host profile image
Hello ! We're Alejandro and Mark. We divide our time between Palm Springs, Fort Lauderdale, and Bogota, Colombia.

Alejandro trained as a lawyer, worked with homeless families, and now has a bodywork practice. Mark trained as a singer and actor, works as an application developer, and performs South American music. If you're curious, search for "Mark Baum Music" on the web.

Why they chose this property

While visiting friends here in Palm Springs, we fell in love with the climate and mountain views, and decided we wanted to put down some roots here ourselves.

What makes this property unique

We love to spend time in our backyard. We designed the pool and landscaping ourselves, and it turned out exactly as we wanted. It's so relaxing just to hang out on the back patio and watch the sun reflecting off the ripples in the water.

Our property adjoins an open space so it feels especially open. And if you put out a little birdseed, birds will flock to the yard from all the nearby trees.
