About this property

Plaimor Paradise: Luxury Mid-Century Modern Resort

OVERVIEW

Plaimor Paradise is our premium, "private resort" which we share with nice people who love relaxing in the Desert and appreciate an artistic flair. This fully restored Mid-Century modern "Alexander" vacation home features a stunning pool, spa, outdoor fire pit, huge beautiful yard, mountain view and modern furnishings. Families are welcome. Located in Palm Springs' historic, midcentury Sunmor neighborhood, you'll feel like you have escaped to a private, "play-more" paradise. PS ID 3280.

THE SPACE

One of our recent guests summarized Plaimor Paradise perfectly, as a "private resort." What's more, our historic mid-century "Alexander" was designed by William Krisel, and was featured during 2018 Modernism week.

We furnished our vacation house with love, and we did it in a way that you will love too. Remember, WE stay here frequently, and insist on a first-rate experience for ourselves and our guests.

For starters, we have a beautiful salt water pool and spa. We also include a couple of pool floats. Then of course there is the fire pit, where you will probably hang out at far more than you imagined.

Perhaps the best part is the outside area with its stunning mountain views. Also, our beautifully landscaped lot is HUGE - at 17,000 sf it is far bigger and more spacious feeling than the standard 10,000 sf that almost all other comparable properties have. (Look closely at outdoor photos when you compare properties.)

The well lit, open floor plan, modern kitchen includes quartz countertops, a Keurig, coffee maker, garbage disposal, adjoining bar chairs and stainless steel appliances. It is extremely well equipped, with all the cooking utensils you need.

We furnished the house largely with Crate and Barrel midcentury modern furniture (NOT Costco) and relevant art. The mattresses are high-end Beauty Rest and very comfortable. We also included fun items like a bar cart, Princess phone, a 1958 replica Stratocaster guitar, Wii, family board games and kitsch items like a bulldog cookie jar and pig bookends. People tell us they love the polished concrete floors. Clock radios are fun and Bluetooth compatible. For entertainment, we went high-end with a Sony 55" 4K smart TV, Apple TV and a Sonos sound bar and subwoofer. We even included wifi connected 32" smart TVs in all 3 bedrooms.

ACCESS

You have complete access to our private paradise, with the exception of the owner's closet and two on-property storage units. We will provide you a custom lock code for the house.

Because Plaimor Paradise is a house and not a hotel, our cleaning crew requires time to do the fantastic job they do. What's more, because the property is extremely popular, it often books back to back to back. Therefore, check in is at 3 pm, and check out is at 10 am. If you would like to request an early check in or late check out, let us know in advance and we will do what we can to help. Sometimes we can give you an extra hour without cost, or allow you to check in at 10 or check out at 3 for an extra $199. Please note, however, that during the busier seasons we oftentimes cannot accommodate these special requests.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE

Welcome to Plaimor Paradise!

As we said above, we are willing to share our premium vacation house with nice people who will treat it as they would their own. I am sure you'd feel the same way too.

So, please help us by telling us a little about yourself and your guests, including ages, how many men and/or women, why you are coming to Palm Springs, day jobs, interests, etc. Note, we can only accept requests from people who provide us the information required by the City of Palm Springs. We are very transparent about our background and house, we would like our guests to do the same. Thanks in advance on that.

Also, a special note to spouses who are charged with finding the perfect family vacation getaway. I (Clara) totally understand! When I am looking for a vacation rental for our family, I work really hard to find the PERFECT place. We did everything possible to make this property live up to our own very high standards. Rest assured, you and your family will love it.

NOW TO THE BUSINESS PART..

The city of Palm Springs levies an 12.5% occupancy tax to all vacation rental stays for less than 28 days. Our maximum number of days is 30. Also, there is a $65 per night spa and pool heating fee (except June through September) that we will request separately, upon booking. Dogs, if accepted, require a one-time $100 extra cleaning reimbursement (each). We will also send you a (city required) rental agreement to confirm the booking, relevant city statutes, house rules and all the details.

Also, keep in mind our minimum stay is usually 6 days.

To confirm your reservation, you'll need to 1. Accept payment terms and dates, 2. . Provide proper identification and, 3. Approve the rental agreement.

We will make things easy for you by helping you through the process.

About the host

Hosted by Clara and Stewart Gandolf

Host profile image
Our first priority is our awesome family, including each other, our young adult daughters and our loyal (former Tijuana street) dog.

Stewart is CEO and Creative Director of an advertising agency (Healthcare Success, LLC) and Clara is "Director of Domestic Operations."

People often tell us we are a very "creative family." Stewart plays electric guitar (when he has time), Clara is a former graphic artist, one daughter is an aspiring animator and the other an experience design major.

We love to travel in many different forms, including Palm Springs, sunny beaches, national parks, other countries and once in a great while skiing.

We have music playing almost all the time, even at work. We have very varied tastes in food, music, movies and theater.

Why they chose this property

We have traveled to Palm Springs with our family since our girls were babies. Plaimor Paradise is a dream come true for us. We are happy to share our dream with nice people who will appreciate it and treat it as they would their own.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with Plaimor Paradise because it is an authentic midcentury modern, with mountain views and a huge yard. We wanted room to build a modern pool, fire pit and spa worthy of the rest of the property. Finally, we love the Sunmor neighborhood.
