Description Palm Springs Princess: Palm Springs

In true Palm Springs spirit, this fun and funky home is mid-century maximalism personified. Dating back to 1958 and set in the Little Beverly Hills neighbourhood, even a stroll down the street feels like stepping back in time, lined with mid-century jewels. Behind the gates, though, you have your own private slice of that retro glamour, complete with a poolside cabana haven ready for a long weekend away. And when you’re ready to venture out, the architectural and culinary hotspot of Palm Springs is right on your doorstep, with California’s most beloved natural escapes, from Joshua Tree to the San Jacinto Mountains, just beyond.

Home truths:
*The swimming pool isn't fenced. You'll need to keep an eye on little ones at all times.
*Two of the bedrooms share a bathroom, while the other two have private en-suites, giving plenty of privacy for the group.
*The decor is loud and eye-catching, so it may not appeal to guests who prefer something more understated.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
