We had a wonderful stay. The property was lovely and the backyard was especially amazing. The property manager and everyone we worked with throughout the planning process was super helpful and responsive. The location was an easy walk downtown which made it even better. We would highly recommend staying here and can't wait to visit again.

Hi Kristy, thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you had a wonderful stay at the Kasbah. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’re so glad the planning process was smooth and helpful for you. We'd love to welcome you back anytime—looking forward to your next visit!
Good location in nice residential area. Lots of space in living/dining/kitchen area for our family to spread out. Kitchen is well equipped which was great for meal prep. The kids (and adults!) loved the pool and hot tub and the pool noodles and tubes were really appreciated.

Thank you for the kind review. We hope you can visit us again soon!
The Kasbah truly is an oasis. The property is well kept; the pool, sparkling. Lots of little things meant a lot. From the sunrise painted headboard to the Moroccan pillows and light fixtures everywhere, to all the kitchen items we needed, the owners really put a lot of detail and thought into this wonderful property. I can’t say enough how much we enjoyed our stay here!
This home was perfect for a hot summer get-away! The house was cool and inviting with a wonderful kitchen, lots of cozy sitting areas, and a very comfortable master bed. It was clean and the decor gave it a nice exotic vacation flare. The true winner was the pool - large enough to do laps! It was so refreshing and beautiful to float around staring at the gorgeous view of the mountain. We would absolutely return to The Kasbah house!!
We enjoyed our stay at the house. Clean, spacious and a convenient location. The large pool and hot tub were ideal with the backdrop of the beautiful San Jacinto mountains. The back bedroom also had a spectacular view of the mountains. The backyard was tranquil even with some noise from street traffic on the weekends. Communication with the owner was EXCELLENT. She responded immediately and was accommodating when we needed anything.

A Truly Unforgettable Stay at the Kasbah in Palm Springs
We had the pleasure of staying at the Kasbah in Palm Springs, and it was an absolutely amazing experience. The house is a perfect blend of incredible style and thoughtful interior design. Each bedroom is spacious, beautifully decorated, and offers plenty of privacy.
The outdoor space is equally impressive. The pool is huge, and the hot tub worked perfectly, providing a relaxing retreat. There’s a BBQ, and multiple private seating areas scattered throughout the property, making it ideal for outdoor dining and lounging. The backyard feels like a serene sanctuary, with plenty of space and lush landscaping, perfect for unwinding.
The location is fantastic as well! We enjoyed peaceful morning walks— the neighborhood is very pedestrian-friendly. There’s ample parking, and the kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need for cooking.
Overall, this home is a perfect 10/10. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a luxurious and tranquil getaway in Palm Springs!

In the evening, stroll the year-round Villagefest, then relax with a swim under the stars. This vacation dream home is just minutes away from the Coachella Valley and the Coachella Music Festival or you can also hop on one of the luxury coaches that will transport you directly to the festival.
