Life On Mars

Holiday Rental Description

Welcome to Palm Springs, once the glamorous playground of movie stars and now the sleek desert destination everyone's flocking to. This home in Little Tuscany is the perfect base to explore the area, whether you enjoy the eclectic nightlife of Downtown or hiking the nearby trails and canyons (the Indian Canyons are a seventeen-minute drive away).

We particularly love the houndstooth feature walls and 1970s-inspired prints that take the interior back to a time when Palm Springs was the secret of the rich and famous but do so in a chic, almost editorial style.

That theme continues outdoors to the true crowning glory – an enormous pool surrounded by a built-in barbecue for alfresco dining. If that wasn't enough, the games area with bocce ball and horseshoe, and a fire pit, ideal for toasting to the end of your day with a nightcap – will have you feeling as though you're staying at your very own private resort.
