Gorgeous Palm Springs House With Mountain Views

ElanaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Way better than staying in a hotel! House was very comfortable and clean, and the pool was great. In town on a work trip and it was so nice to unwind by the peaceful pool at night. I would recommend the house for anyone looking for a quite and clean place to stay while visiting the palm springs area.

Cornerlands

ClintRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had an incredible stay at this Joshua Tree retreat. The full-length glass windows offered breathtaking views of the rocky desert landscape—sunrises and sunsets were unforgettable. The pool was perfect for cooling off in the summer heat, and the entire space felt serene and private. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and the bathrooms were spotless and thoughtfully stocked with soap, shampoo, and conditioner. Beds were very comfortable, and the home was peaceful and quiet, yet just a 7-minute drive to the 29 Palms Highway. Highly recommended—would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful home! Maybe I didn’t read the description, but this house is a tiny home. Caught me off guard but a delightful surprise with the perfect amount of room for two. The views are gorgeous! The sun rises in front of the wash room, which gave the perfect bathing experience. Really clean home with a balcony perfect for stargazing.

Mid-Century, Salt Water Pool, Large Grassy Yard!

DaphneRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This house was a gem! It was well located close to downtown Palm Springs- 5 minutes by car. The surrounding area was ok, but close to the airport, which occasionally was noisy. The house is well kept, minor plumbing issues were easily dealt with. Haley is a pleasure to deal with, and we will certainly look to rent this house again!

My family and I loved our stay at Nico's place! The pool and hot tub were amazing and we had great views of the mountains. The beds are super comfy and the air conditioning is great for those hot summer days! The old school arcade games were an added bonus that my son and husband enjoyed. We will be back!

3rd Rock - Designed for the Luxury Vacation

ErinRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This was hands down the most beautiful and thoughtfully curated home we’ve ever stayed in on Airbnb. The location against the mountains offered absolutely stunning views—especially at sunrise and sunset. The house itself was insane in the best way—architecturally beautiful, with elevated, modern-chic decor that made every room feel like a design magazine spread. The chef’s kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could possibly need, and every inch of the home was spotless and clearly cared for with intention. The outdoor area was just as incredible—gorgeous pool, plenty of space to relax, and peaceful surroundings. Truly no complaints—just gratitude for such an unforgettable stay. We can’t wait to come back!

Bella Vista Retreat: Private Modern Estate

SarahRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This place is really beautiful. Huge. Dream house. GREAT yard and pool. Each bedroom is very nice though all the beds are quite firm/hard (good if that’s your thing). The added guesthouse gives extra privacy. The kitchen is the most well stocked Airbnb kitchen I have been in. Communication with host was pretty good. I did ask a question and never heard back but it was largely inconsequential. We had a little hiccup at check in but the host corrected it immediately, which was appreciated. I highly recommend this place. I would stay again for sure.

Modern Oasis I Stunning Mountain-View Pool/Hot Tub

KarenRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
We enjoyed our stay. Checking in was simple and the house was spotless when we arrived. The backyard was private and the pool brought much relief on the 100 degree days. Close to downtown PS and the Aerial Tram we enjoyed both. Also took in the Joshua Tree National park and made our way to Palm Dessert and 29 Palms. The house was well stocked with all amenities and a notebook with pamphlets of some outings. He included recommendations too! Can't wait to return.

La Casita #5* Romantic Studio* 12 Pools* WoW Views

Josh & LeslieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
If you have stumbled upon this listing, book now! This was one of, if not the best, airbnb's we've stayed in. It's spotless, comfortable, convenient, and beautiful. Britta has more amenities in this casita than I've ever come across in a rental. Games, pool floats, towels, a stocked bathroom, a bluetooth speaker, multiple coolers, books, magazines, snacks, a stocked kitchenette, etc. The casita is right outside the pool and has the most lovely little patio. I can't speak highly enough of this place. Communication was clear and thorough. If we don't return within the year, I'll be surprised. A perfect desert getaway.

Peaceful Poolside Retreat

JacquelineRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Jerry and Craig have a wonderful, beautiful, and quiet place. As someone born and raised in Palm Springs, it was absolutely gorgeous getting to wake up to the view especially with such an inviting pool and backyard. It reminded me of when I was little. There’s a bunch of walkable places such as Koffi and an ice cream shop as well as clothing stores and a steakhouse. Jerry was an amazing communicator and checked in on multiple occasions to make sure we and our dogs had everything we needed. It was great to go and visit, and we are already looking by forward to our next stay!

Bohemian Mid-Century at the Famed Ocotillo Lodge

MichaelRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Really kind of perfect. Just like the photos but maybe a little better. Private, quiet, clean, calming with the original architectural charm. Great location. The complex is really cool but not overly fussy/hipster-y/redone which I loved. Reminds me of early AirBnB and pre-Ace Hotel Palm Springs when you could get something nice and full of character for a good value.

Hawaiiana Palms - luxe, peaceful retreat-KING bed

ChristopherRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This was my first time visiting Palm Springs and my stay could not have been better. This unit added so much fun, mid-century charm to my experience with beautiful design and amenities. The little details, like the record player, tiki cup collection, and antique furnishings give this unit a vibe that immediately puts you in a vacation mindset. The building was quiet and peaceful, making for a great respite from adventures downtown. I also appreciated that the location is a bit more off the beaten path, but still walkable to some incredible coffee shops and restaurants. Plus, getting to downtown is a breeze with Ubers/Lyfts taking less than 15 minutes. The cherry on top is the building's pool. It feels like you're lounging on a movie set straight out of the 1950's. We went multiple times a day throughout our trip to swim, sunbathe, and relax. We really appreciated that it wasn't a crowded party area, but rather a peaceful place to lounge. Can't recommend this unit enough!

the BRITE spot * Palm Springs, at Ocotillo Lodge

JohnRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We loved staying in this fabulous condo at the iconic Ocotillo Lodge, designed by famed midcentury modern architect William Krisel. Although the once spectacular public rooms at the Lodge are now shuttered, the grounds have been beautifully restored with cactus and succulents, and the large landmark champagne-cork shaped pool is beautifully maintained, serenaded (quietly) through the day with delightful recordings of classic Great American Songbook music of the 50's. The Brite Spot condo itself has been wonderfully decorated with handsome vintage furniture and lighting, a very comfortable bed, and beautiful terrazzo tile floors, and boasts a lovely little courtyard with a great old olive tree that throughout the day hosts various singing desert birds. The Lodge no longer has a working bar or restaurant, but coffee, cocktails, great food, and the sights and attractions of Palm Springs - including Krisel's justly famed Twin Palms community - are all just minutes away.

Your guide to Palm Springs

All About Palm Springs

Bookended by the San Jacinto Mountains, Palm Springs is known for its natural hot springs, restaurants, golf courses, and sunny weather. Locals and visitors alike embrace the relaxed mentality here, taking time out by the pool or browsing the concept stores downtown. But there’s a lot more to the city, including the Palm Spring Art Museum with three floors of mixed media art. Outdoor enthusiasts head out to the surrounding canyons and mountains for hiking or cross-country skiing in the winter. Food lovers can taste globally-inspired dishes in laid-back diners and upscale modern restaurants.

Visit during Palm Springs Restaurant Week at the beginning of June to try them all, or pick up fresh, seasonal produce at the Coachella Valley Certified Farmers’ Market every Saturday from October to May. The Uptown Design District runs the gamut from art to design, sophistication to kitsch. Sleek, mid-century homes designed by notable architects line the streets — take a guided tour or grab a map at the visitor’s center and head out on your own.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Palm Springs

Visit between January and April for the comfortable temperatures needed to enjoy the best of Palm Springs in the open air — hiking, spa treatments, sunbathing beside the pool, and more. Sunshine and cooler days bring a welcome buzz to downtown’s many curbside cafes and stylish bars, while less challenging conditions also make nearby Joshua Tree National Park easier to explore. Many of the area’s most popular festivals take place during the mild winter months, including the Palm Springs International Film Festival in January and Coachella’s famous music festival every April. Palm Springs summers are hot and long, stretching from March to September. Fall’s warm and pleasant temperatures make it a great time to enjoy local outdoor festivals like Props & Hops Craft Beer Festival in November.

Palm Springs Aerial Tramway

Take a ride on the largest rotating aerial lift in the world, and climb 8,516 feet along the cliffs of Chino Canyon to the Mountain Station in about 10 minutes. You will be rewarded with spectacular mountain views.

Indian Canyon

During the winter months, head out to Indian Canyon for optimal hiking conditions, with temperatures hovering around mid-60 degrees Fahrenheit. This beautiful and culturally rich area is home to native wildlife, plants, rock art, streams, and a 60-foot waterfall. Aside from the sacred beauty found here, you’ll also find multiple hiking trails suitable for most levels throughout the lush canyon.

Robolights

Venture out to the Movie Colony East neighborhood and visit the incredible light display known as Robolights. The exhibition gets redesigned each year with scavenged and gifted trash items. A wonderland of Christmas lights and sculptures, the four-acre residential plot will take you about 45 minutes to walk.
