Oscar was super accommodating and his home is super clean! The home had everything we needed and more. The kitchen was stocked with all the appliances, the bathroom was stocked, the pool is beautiful, and the garage was super fun! You can tell he put a lot of thought into making his home enjoyable for his guest. Even having an AC in the garage was much needed and perfect. We had such a good time at his home and would highly recommend any one to book here. Thanks again, Oscar! We’ll see you next year!

This house was a beautiful home base for my family's three day stay in Palm Springs. Everything was very clean, the house is very spacious, and we really enjoyed the game room in the garage. The backyard was also very enjoyable and we had a good time hanging out there including in the jacuzzi. There is alot of airplane traffic overhead as the house is next to the airport, but we enjoyed seeing the planes taking off and the planes stopped flying at night so we were able to sleep just fine. It was also my in-laws first time staying in a vacation rental home and they were very impressed.

We had an amazing stay at Oscar's property in Palm Springs! The home was in a fantastic location—close to restaurants, shopping, and local attractions while still feeling like a private retreat.Oscar was a wonderful host and incredibly responsive throughout our stay. We did encounter an issue with the hot tub when we first arrived, but he and his team addressed it right away and had it working by the next day. We really appreciated how quickly they resolved the issue and kept us informed along the way.The game room was a huge hit with our family and provided hours of fun for both the kids and adults. Once the hot tub was up and running, we spent so much time enjoying both the pool and spa. The backyard was perfect for relaxing, and the home had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.Most importantly, this was a great property for our family. There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out, have fun together, and make wonderful memories. We left feeling refreshed and already talking about coming back.Thank you, Oscar, for helping make our Palm Springs getaway such a memorable one. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property to other families looking for a fun and relaxing vacation!
