As it`s located on the 2nd floor, our one-bedroom condo basks in tons of natural light, with amazing views of the surrounding mountains and palm canopies.

Our stylish condo decor mixes mid-century style with bold colors & textures. The living room has a sliding door to the patio for that seamless, indoor/outdoor experience. Enjoy the soothing natural surroundings for which Palm Springs is known.
Our bedroom has a plush king-sized bed for that perfect night`s sleep. It also features an en suite bathroom with many original details. The kitchen is fully stocked, and opens out to the dining/bar area. For your entertainment, we have SmartTVs in the living room & bedroom. Once you step outside of the unit, the large swimming pool and spa are both just steps from your door.
Originally built in 1956 by famed architects William Krisel & the Alexanders, the Ocotillo Lodge started out as a hotel, and is one of Palm Springs` most stunning mid-century gems. As a guest, you will have full access to the facilities, including the famous champagne-cork shaped pool, two hot tubs, fitness room, and lush desert landscaping. You`ll truly feel like one of the many celebrities who have frequented this famous hangout spot over the years.
