About this house rental

This beautifully preserved mid‑century modern vacation home captures the essence of classic Palm Springs living, offering guests an authentic 1950s experience with all the comforts of a contemporary desert retreat.

Managed by Poolside Vacation Rentals, the property sits on an elevated deck that showcases sweeping views of the San Jacinto Mountains and the valley below. From sunrise to starlight, the setting feels quintessentially Palm Springs - bright, serene, and effortlessly stylish. Guests can spend their days lounging beside the in‑ground pool, unwinding in the spa, or gathering around the fire pit as the desert sky shifts into brilliant evening colors.

The home's architectural integrity has been lovingly maintained to the true mid‑century purists. Original doors, windows, cabinetry, and flooring remain intact, creating a rare and immersive retro‑chic atmosphere. Inside, the living spaces blend vintage charm with warm, comfortable furnishings that invite relaxation. Large windows frame the surrounding desert landscape, while the cozy gas fireplace adds a touch of ambiance on cooler evenings. The fully equipped kitchen makes meal preparation easy, and thoughtful amenities - including three flat‑screen TVs with cable, streaming apps, high‑speed WiFi, a washer and dryer, and a BBQ grill - ensure a seamless and enjoyable stay.

Designed with privacy in mind, the Primary California King bedroom suite is positioned on the opposite end of a long hallway from the guest bedroom, making the home ideal for two couples traveling together. The Primary opens directly to the sparkling pool deck, offering instant access to morning swims and afternoon sunbathing. The guest bedroom overlooks a peaceful backyard, creating a quiet retreat for rest and rejuvenation. Both rooms feature comfortable bedding and a calming desert‑inspired aesthetic that enhances the home's laid‑back, restorative vibe.

Outside, the raised deck is the heart of the property. Guests often describe the panoramic mountain and valley views as unforgettable, whether enjoyed from a pool float, a spa soak, or a cozy seat by the fire pit. The outdoor spaces are designed for lingering - morning coffee with the sun rising over the valley, long afternoons in the pool, and evenings spent under a canopy of stars that feels uniquely Palm Springs.

Perfectly located just minutes from the Uptown Design District and only 1.6 miles from Downtown Palm Springs, the home offers quick access to the area's best restaurants, boutiques, galleries, and nightlife. Golf courses, hiking trails, tennis courts, and outdoor adventure spots are all nearby, making it easy to experience everything that draws visitors to the desert.

Whether you're seeking relaxation, architectural inspiration, or a stylish home base for exploring the city, this property delivers a quintessential Palm Springs vacation experience.

Hilltop Haven is easily one of the best places we’ve stayed in Palm Springs! It’s the perfect retro decorated cool comfortable sexy stylish spot! We loved it! And we really appreciated Acme taking our call Saturday night at 9:30 to help with the jacuzzi. The house is VERY well appointed even down to the fancy charge stands for phones, iwatches and air pods! We will be back for sure!! Thank you for an excellent birthday weekend.

A great home to enjoy PS. Fantastic view of the valley, including multiple outdoor spaces to enjoy the weather. You won’t want to leave the pool and spa area. House design allows outside views to come inside. Kitchen a bit dated, but quite functional. We will definitely return.

Wonderful property, well-designed and clean. Private pool and hot tub were amazing, views incredible. Location was perfect - very private but still very easy to pop downtown and be there in about 5 minutes. Loved it.

Nice property. Great management company. Could use a few updates. Kitchen and bathrooms are dated. The check in process was awesome and the the people really nice. Construction a few doors down was every day. It was nice, just not one of the highlight properties I’ve stayed at in Palm Springs. Again, great people but not as nice as I was hoping.
