About this property

CLASSIC MEETS CONTEMPORARY - Guest House in high-end Private Mini-Estate

Serene...Inspiring...Elevated...

Our unique property allows guests to adequately "social distance" from the homeowner, with exclusive use of the yard and pool during their stay. Reach out to me for further details and updates.

This 1948-built architectural home was designed by architect, Allen Siple and developed by Paul Trousdale who later went on to built Trousdale Estates in Los Angeles.. Current owner completely remodeled and expanded the residence in 2007 with an art and spa aesthetic and includes a walled compound consisting of the main home (occupied by owners) and a 650+ sq. foot detached guest house, separated by a loggia with fireplace. Known as Casa de Arte, the home and art collection has been featured in numerous publications. Ideal guest would be a seasonal renter looking for quiet enjoyment of the desert lifestyle or a visitor coming into the city for a special event like Modernism Week, Palm Springs Art Fair or Coachella Music Festival.

The City of Palm Springs ID# 8003 for a "homeshare" short-term rental. The city charges a 12.5% Transit Occupancy Tax on stays less than 28 days which is collected by VRBO. Guest will sign a "Good Neighbor Brochure" when they arrive noting they will comply city City requirements including occupancy limits, noise prohibitions and vehicle parking requirement. In addition the City requires the host to make a copy of the responsible party's driver's license or other ID.

Note that the per diem rate does not include heating the pool. We will heat the spa upon request on occasion during your stay not to exceed one-hour per day. Up to one-hour per day will be gratis. Additional spa time will have a surcharge of $25/hour.

NOTE: 2 night minimum. IMPORTANT NOTE: 3 night minimum for Coachella, Stagecoach and certain holidays. There is a 5 night minimum for Modernism Week. For the high season months of January through April the MAXIMUM rental period will be for 3 consecutive weeks. (No monthly rentals for those 4 months).

Paradise in Palm Springs
We loved our stay on Gil and Stan’s beautiful property! The guest house was clean and comfortable and had everything we could need. The pool area in the backyard was a dream. Stan and Gil took great care of us, even providing popsicles to beat the heat, and an ice pack for my knee injury. We are so thankful for their hospitality at their incredible home!

We loved the property, location and delightful hosts. Gil & Stan couldn't have been more hospitable. Their response to any questions were quick and helpful. I'd highly recommend the Casita for a short or longer stay in Palm Springs.

I would give this property 10 stars if I could!
This is a delightful property with easy access to just about anywhere you want to go in Palm Springs. The property was so nice, however, you may not want to leave. From the more than gracious hosts, to the beautiful art, to the comfy bed, there is just no reason to leave. I hesitate to leave a glowing review because I am afraid it will never be available again. Thank you Stan and Gil!

Beautiful Property and View of Mountains
This property was perfect for our visit to Palm Springs. The home has been featured in the media for its art and we enjoyed seeing the collection. The multiple sitting areas (sun and shade), pool, and spacious guesthouse all made for a comfortable, serene, and beautiful setting. The property is immaculate. We enjoyed chatting briefly with the owner each day and would definitely stay again.

Treasure in the dessert
We loved our stay at this guest house! The property is immaculate and the art all around the property is beautiful to enjoy. The location is near downtown, hiking, spas. Very central location, very quiet and peaceful at nights with views of the San Jacinto mountains. Super close to Tahquitz canyon and the wonderful waterfalls. I would definitely love to go back and stay there again. The hosts provided us with great food and entertainment recommendations.

Why they chose this property

It's all about the privacy of the compound and the great resort amenities, it's architectural pedigree, as well as our location central to hiking trails and the downtown village.

What makes this property unique

Privacy behind the walls of this mini estate. Natural sun bathing permitted. Here is a recent guest review: "This guest house and property was our best ever vacation rental. The location is quiet and close to all amenities. Multiple outdoor seating options, well designed pool, perfect water temperature in the hot months, love the floating mats provided. Comfortable bed, high end linens, thick fluffy indoor and outdoor towels, well appointed kitchen. Art and sculpture was an added bonus. Hosts provided excellent dining and excursion suggestions; they did everything to make our stay exceptional. We enjoyed Palm Springs and we were definitely in a 5 or 6 star resort. Restful and relaxing 10 days and we hope to return again. We would give this vacation rental a 10 stars rating if we could!"
