Casa Verde Siesta

Set within a gated Palm Springs community, this condo gives you resort-style living without the resort price tag. Two pool and spa areas, tennis courts with views of the San Jacinto Mountains, and a putting green are all on your doorstep, while the hot tub provides a relaxing way to end the day. Two patios lean into the classic Palm Springs indoor-outdoor rhythm, and when you're ready to venture out, downtown Palm Springs and its restaurants and shops are within walking distance.

Home truths:
* Guests must be 25 years of age or older to rent this home.
* This home is available for stays of thirty nights or more only – it's designed for longer-term visitors rather than short breaks. If you're planning a snowbird season or an extended desert retreat, you're in the right place.
* Streaming services are available on the TV, but you'll need to log in with your own accounts – nothing is pre-subscribed for you.
* The pools, tennis courts, hot tub, and putting green are all shared community facilities rather than private to this home – they're well-maintained, but you may have neighbours using them at the same time.
* Free parking is included and private, so you won't need to hunt for a space – helpful if you're hiring a car to explore the wider desert region.
