There’s a sense of timelessness in the desert – it’s easy to slow down and enjoy the beauty of the moment. And this traditional Spanish hacienda opens its doors to the magic of Palm Springs.

Located in the exclusive Movie Colony (apparently built by Warner Brothers Studios) it’s the kind of space that celebrates life’s luxuries. From the original features to the elegant styling, every detail has been considered to fill your stay with warmth and ease.

As the day begins, you’ll love stepping out into the beautifully sculpted gardens – this is a wonderful spot to drink your morning coffee. Spend a slow day by the pool, reading in the shade or soaking in the jacuzzi. And when you’re inspired by the surroundings, follow the mountain views into the heart of Palm Springs – you can walk to the local restaurants, coffee shops, art galleries and boutiques.

From hiking to cycling, there are plenty of ways to connect with the natural beauty of this landscape. And as the sun sets, you’ll love gathering together in the garden of this home. Light up the wood–burning pizza oven and enjoy the best of desert living.
