About this property

Desert Oasis With 360° Unobstructed Views Of Palm Springs And The Mountains

The City of Palm Springs ID#2891 – Perched above Palm Springs in an exclusive enclave, Villa Cahuilla boasts spectacular panoramic views of the city and surrounding desert mountains.

We recently finished several updates to the house that weren’t ready when the photos were taken… automated solar shades in the master suite, blackout blinds in additional guest bedrooms, huge outdoor daybed ottoman at pool, additional seating around the outdoor fire pits, and 2 large outdoor umbrellas around the pool.

Designed by celebrity architect Michael Mueller in 2013 with an homage to mid-century meets mission design, Villa Cahuilla is designed for private living and is now available for client’s appreciative of opulent amenities and materials not normally offered in a vacation home.

Nestled into the majestic San Jacinto mountains, Villa Cahuilla is a chic 4 bedroom, 3 bath oasis surrounding a luxurious heated pool that features 4 tranquil waterfall-fountains and offers completely unobstructed views of Palm Springs and the surrounding desert.

The private grounds boasts 4 separate outdoor fire features, ancient rock formations and stunning multi-tiered gardens that include a collective and mature cacti garden. Dine in the gardens at the outdoor dining table that seats 12, or belly up to the bar and BBQ beside the pool. The property also features an 8-person jacuzzi that is literally perched on the edge of the mountain; offering unobstructed views of Palm Springs and the surrounding desert mountains the jacuzzi’s own fire feature and multi-color mood lighting are indulgent complements to an evening of champagne and stargazing.

Pure luxury in amenities: Villa Cahuilla offers tranquil indoor-outdoor living with French doors that open the entire house to the pool, gardens, and unparalleled valley views. The living area features an 80” 3D plasma entertainment center and a dramatic stone fireplace. The master suite features it’s own stone fireplace and spa bath with twin basin sinks and raintree showers . Guest rooms include spa bath with huge soaking tub, raintree showers, plasma TVs, and large walk-in closets for long-term renters. Linens are sumptuous and unlike a typical vacation rental with plush Egyptian cotton bath and beach towels, luxury sheets, as well as extra blankets and comforters for those chilly nights. The modern gourmet kitchen offers 3 ovens including a convection oven for the chef, 4 burner gas stove, large-capacity dishwasher and custom cabinets with leather ball-stitched handles and white Caesarstone countertops. Indoor/Outdoor Wi-Fi completes the experience.

FILMING & PHOTOGRAPHY – No photography or filming is permitted at Villa Cahuilla without the express written consent of the Owner. Amateur photography and video for personal and non-commercial use is permitted. Any for-profit filming must receive prior written permission from Owner.

A Wonderful Stay - Great Host
A beautiful home with a great view and wonderful host made our recent stay at Villa Cahuilla a win on all levels. The home is stocked very well with cookware, dining plates and utensils for preparing meals and the housekeeping service (Mirabel & team) was super! Nick provided timely updates and asked if we needed anything at different points of our 10 day stay. We look forward to returning to this property very soon!

Hated to leave
We spent a week at Villa Cahuilla in October 2023 and had a wonderful time. It was our third stay at this exceptional, one-of-a-kind property, which is one of our favorite rentals anywhere. Nick is an excellent host and I highly recommend a stay.

Family Trip
Our family trip with my adult children and grandchild could not have been better. The grounds and house at Villa Cahuilla were perfect and absolutely beautiful. Nick was professional and friendly, and was quick to get back to me when I had a question. There were several attractions close by which we visited, though it was hard to leave the property. We also had a special family dinner celebration at the Villa with Chef Tammie, and it was superb. She and Liza were amazing. I can't say enough about Villa Cahuilla and would highly recommend this vacation spot for families or a group of friends who want privacy and beautiful surroundings.

Desert Paradise
I had an excellent experience with this vacation rental from start to finish. Communication with the owner was incredibly easy and he was super helpful, accessible and friendly. We were provided literally everything we could have wanted or needed while staying and it was truly paradise. It was such a luxury and pleasure to stay in this beautiful home and we all cannot wait to return. The best feeling was that when we went out we all agreed we couldn’t wait to return to the house to enjoy it.

Why they chose this property

This property was purchased because it was the most unique property I had ever seen in Palm Springs. The site is spectacular with 360 degree views while the privacy around the house makes for the perfect hideaway. The extensive and mature cacti garden are also truly unique.

What makes this property unique

Villa Cahuilla is remarkable because of the way in which architecture and landscape conjoin in this private desert retreat. The huge swimming pool with its waterfall-fountains, and luxurious jacuzzi perched above the valley offer the rejuvenation of a retreat unlike any other!
