My staff stayed in this house while we were running a retreat down in Palm Springs and it was perfect. Spread out enough for five people to be together and alone. The process was easy and the house is gorgeous. Good location close to downtown. Zero complaints. Fun property to hang out in.

What a wonderful place to vacation and relax with family and friends. Well stocked kitchen, a great central courtyard and pool area, and individual rooms were spaced out that gave us senses of personal space. We enjoyed things to do around PS, but really just enjoyed being together at this house, playing card games and puzzles, and socializing and relaxing. Would absolutely rent here again. Site managers were very accommodating to check us in and show us around.

The house was perfect for our family of eight. It’s in a beautiful setting on a quiet cul de sac with a view of the mountains and within a short drive from everything. The house is wonderfully comfortable and was immaculate when we arrived, the pool at a perfect temperature. The kitchen is fully equipped with anything we might have needed. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. Checkout procedures refreshingly simple. We can’t recommend the house and the hosts more highly.

Villa Carmelita was excellent. Felt much bigger and much more chic in person (don't let the Bowie pillows fool you!). Hosts were easy and attentive. The kitchen is extremely well appointed from cooking to serving wares, all your essential spices etc. All the rooms felt very private and separate. Location is also 10/10.

We were a party of seven older folks. Our stay at Villa Carmelita was absolutely perfect. A building of charm, taste and impressive functionality. We wanted quiet; we got quiet. We wanted being at the base of a mountain; we got that. We wanted a great and roomy kitchen, a magnificent pool with cooling misters and fun fountain, a charger for our car, space for private time, comfort, good art, location to hiking trails and to downtown shopping and restaurants, some old school Palm Springs charm; we got it all. We left wishing that we could buy the place! That good.

Such a beautiful place!

We LOVED our stay at this amazing house. It was even more lovely in person and had everything we needed for a long weekend away. The beds were so comfortable, the location was peaceful, and everywhere you looked there was a beautiful view. The owl in the trees hooting away at night was the icing on the cake. Would 100% recommend and stay again.
