Wintergreen

Pop culture meets high design at this one of a kind mid-century modern home. Every angle is visual perfection, from the pastel-lit outdoor pools to the cactus-framed fire pit, stripy sun loungers, orange Perspex bar stools and Pop Art canvases above king-sized beds. There are plenty of opportunities for bragging rights here. Sip a sundowner at the outdoor bar before barbecuing under the starry sky with knockout views of the San Jacinto Mountains. If nights get chilly, gather around the fire fit to warm your toes and toast marshmallows over the open flame. Your host can arrange for a maid service, poolside massage, grocery delivery or a private chef. And that’s even before you’ve got out and explored Palm Springs proper. Its restaurants, bars, golf courses, spas, in-demand drag brunches, hiking trails and much, much more are just ten minutes by car, making this the perfect desert escape for both style and substance.

Home truths:
*If there are six adults staying, one of the king-sized beds will be two singles pushed together
*There’s a plant in the living room that needs watering with one cup of water on Sundays – ask your host for more information when booking
*The optional concierge services such as maid service, poolside massage, private chef and pre-arrival grocery stocking need to be arranged with three-week prior notice
*A 240V outlet that will work for charging a Tesla and other electric vehicles is available at the home
