This house and casita were impeccably clean! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The back yard is wonderful with lots of seating for sun or shade. We had the pool heated and it was perfect to swim in day and evening. We also used the hot tub early in the morning and in the evening every day. Would definitely stay again! :-)

Oven didn’t work and I’ve maker didn’t work otherwise all was good

Response from VrboOwner on 22 September 2023
I'm glad you enjoyed your stay! As you know, the oven did not work because the circuit breaker was triggered from too much use of power on the power grid for the property which caused the oven to stop working until the circuit breaker was reset later in the morning. This had never happened before because the circuit breaker had never been so stressed. Nevertheless, the oven works fine. The ice maker attached to the refrigerator was repaired during your stay and has worked properly ever since.

Week away

The property is great, pool and hot tub were wonderful. The second house on property also makes it a nice spot for multi family vacationing. Bring extra TP, paper towels and garbage bags as the house is not stocked with enough for a week long rental.

Response from VrboOwner on 22 September 2023
We appreciate the kind words about the property! We provide multiple rolls of toilet paper in each bathroom, as well as paper towels and trash bags in the kitchen for each stay. However, the supply is not unlimited as vacation rentals are not hotels. As is customary for vacation rentals, any additional supply is the responsibility of the guests.

Beautiful classic home and well located for everything

The house and location are perfect. Everything around town was easily accessible from the Racquet Club neighborhood including groceries, downtown shops, museums, as well as the airport. The living room automatic fireplace was a nice touch for quiet evenings. This classic butterfly roof Alexander home does not disappoint!

Lovely Property!

We absolutely loved staying at this property! The house is stylish and comfortable with all the amenities we needed and more. The backyard is beautiful and serene with plenty of space to spread out. We were looking for a quiet getaway and enjoyed the peace and quiet of the property. The house was immaculately clean. We watched TV a bit using our own apps but didn't spend much time inside because it was so pleasant outside. We will definitely be visiting again and can't wait to stay at this property next time!

FANTASTIC Place to Stay!

We REALLY loved this home for our family of 5 plus grandparents staying in the casita. The space is exactly like the pictures, with ample room for everyone and great outdoor amenities. The hot tub was HOT and the heated pool was such a treat as well! We used the pools and the fire pit every single night, along with all our meals outdoors on the big table. Lots of extra details were great---like blankets for outdoor use, pool toys (we added some noodles to the supply!), the BBQ grill, the Magic Bullet for smoothies, etc. The casita for my in-laws was perfect, offering them private space but yet they could join us for all the fun. The mid-century modern decor and the gorgeous light/sun every morning made this house shine. Great location as we were close to everything. The lone downside was that the dishwasher was less than stellar, so we washed our dishes by hand. I absolutely would recommend this home for other families!

Thank you for your helpful feedback. We are so glad to hear that your family enjoyed their stay and the extra amenities. It is surprising to hear that the dishwasher is not working optimally, as it was recently serviced. We have ordered additional service and will replace the dishwasher if need be. We hope you stay with us next time you travel to Palm Springs.

Long time Palm Springs visitors.

We’ve stayed in many PS houses, this one has good points and not so good points. The pool and outdoor area are very nice. The location is great, easy walk to grocery store and downtown. The house was clean except for the cement floor and there were tiny ants on the kitchen counter which we’ve never experienced before in PS. There is only one TV in the house and one in the casita. The only way we could watch live national channels (ABC, CBS, NBC) was for me to open a UTube-TV+ account, which I was reimbursed for. It was March Madness week and we were all anxious to watch. Artwork is lovely but would prefer televisions in the bedrooms. And the WiFi was not very consistent for the two weeks we were there.

Thank you Sharon for your review and feedback. Unfortunately you neglected to tell us about ants or dirt on the cement floor, as we would have rectified it immediately. The exterminator comes to the property regularly and had been at the property just prior to your arrival. He did not see ants, in fact there is not an ant problem at this property. During your stay there were heavy rains which the exterminator advised us can sometimes drive ants inside for shelter, which seemed to be the case here. As for the TVs, as advertised and disclosed there is one TV in the living room and one TV in the casita (guest house). We have never had complaints about having 2 TVs, as guests enjoy the outdoor spaces, time together, and presumably access content on their devices if need be. YouTube TV is offered at this property. As we discussed, due to recently changes in YouTube TV geofiltering policies, you were unable to access the account. As you noted, I paid for you to secure a one month subscription to YouTube TV in order to access cable programming. We are adding an additional YouTube TV account to the property so that future guests may access cable programming without incident, however in our experience most guests have their own streaming accounts and do not require this service. It is unfortunate that the property was not quite what you were looking for, but it is as described and advertised and a very popular property among guests, friends and family, so maybe you did not read about the TVs before booking? I hope you enjoy your future stays in Palm Springs at another property.

House is very clean and exactly as pictured. Host was extremely easy to work with. Kitchen is well stocked with everything you could need. Home is well laid out and the beds were very comfortable. Plenty of pool towels. A bit light on hand towels, but there is a washer/dryer on site (very nice ones) so we just washed hand towels as we needed them.

Fabulous property

We had a great time staying in this property in Palm Springs. We were able to check in early thanks to Josh and found everything we needed straight away. Very stylish decor where the bedrooms were spacious and comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. We particularly loved the outdoor space, especially the pool and hot tub. The property is 5 mins drive to downtown Palm Springs where there are plenty of great restaurants. We would definitely visit again!
