Always On My Mind

Holiday Rental Description

This beautiful house will be a smash hit with fans of Broadway. The former home of composer Frederick Loewe (writer of My Fair Lady and Camelot) is a real showstopper, with vast walls of glass that put the incredible views over Palm Springs and the entire Coachella Valley firmly centre stage. With one of the largest plots we’ve seen in Palm Springs, there’s a real sense of space both inside and out. The mid-century style lounge is open plan, with sliding doors opening to the pool, and a full bar that any mixologist would feel comfortable behind. You’ll feel like the star of the show in the master bedroom, with its floor-to-ceiling windows, fireplace and swivelling bed. While those views do take the limelight, the all-singing, all-dancing garden is pretty special too. Some serious imagination has been brought to the landscaping, with contemporary sculptures, a bean-shaped pool, artificial river, and a grotto style hot tub and waterfall (oh and did we mention the tennis court?) The location in the most exclusive area of Palm Springs is fit for entertainment royalty too (to give you an idea, the Elvis Presley Estate is over the road), and you’re only 5 minutes’ drive from Downtown. Bravo.

Home truths:
*We love the fact that this feels like a house that people actually live in, but if you’re expecting a rental home with a pristine hotel feel, this is probably not the one for you
*Access to bedroom 4 is through bedroom 3, or you can go outside and around to access the bedroom’s external entrance
*The kitchen is well equipped for a chef, with commercial grade appliances, but it feels more like a service kitchen than a space for socialising
*Some of the bathrooms are a little dated, but it all adds to the charm
