Bougainvillea & Bocce

Tucked inside a gated community, this terracotta-roofed villa is framed by bougainvillea and delivers the kind of resort-style ease that makes it hard to leave. Days naturally drift between the heated community pools, alfresco meals on the patio, and a competitive round on the bocce court. When the desert evenings cool, the fire inside earns its keep – or head to the games room for billiards. PGA West's Jack Nicklaus Stadium Course is five minutes away, and the Empire Polo Grounds – home to Coachella and Stagecoach – are ten minutes down the road.

Home truths:
* At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.
* You'll have access to the on-site pools, gym, and tennis court here. They're shared with the estate's other residents.
* You'll want a car for this stay – the nearest supermarket is around a ten-minute drive, and most attractions, restaurants, and shops require driving. Uber and Lyft do operate in the area if you'd prefer not to rent.
* The garage fits one standard car, but larger SUVs and trucks may not fit. There are also unassigned spaces along the street, with a limit of two vehicles per home between midnight and 7am.
