Turquoise Lagoon

Holiday Rental Description

This palatial villa is set across five acres of beautifully manicured gardens (there's barely a blade of grass out of place here) with typical SoCal flora, including cacti and ancient desert trees. The infinity lagoon pool is like a desert oasis, with waterfalls cascading from the hot tub, a mountain backdrop, and loungers between the palms. A shaded porch covers the outdoor dining space, and there’s a gas grill to make the most of balmy nights. Practice putting on the four-hole green before hitting the world-class golf courses nearby (an eight-minute drive away), or try your hand at fun lawn games. Inside, there are two grand sitting rooms with a sunken wet bar in between for the ultimate evening entertaining. Budding chefs will feel at home in the gourmet island kitchen with state-of-the-art appliances and plenty of prep space. The master bedroom comes with a soaking tub in the en-suite, and a private seating area outside sliding glass doors. Three bedrooms are in the separate guest house, which has its own games room with a billiard table and cocktail arcade table. Should you need one more reason to stay here, a short seven-minute drive will get you to Palm Desert's ultimate shopping destination El Paseo, while hikers can take in the picturesque views from the Indian Canyons, less than half an hour away from this sanctuary of palm paradise.
