Holiday Rental Description

With restaurants and coffee shops on your doorstep, and the heart of downtown just a short stroll away, this home in central Palm Springs is something a bit different. Set in a gated community with a shared outdoor pool and hot tub, it comes with outside space and a private double carport. And it's not exactly the shy and retiring type, with colourful furnishings, bold artwork and contemporary styling.

The sociable living space on the ground floor centres around a fireplace and two sets of sliding doors open to the courtyard garden, complete with a dining table and barbecue. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking at home and there's an atomic-age touch to the dining area with its Panton-style chairs. Upstairs, we love the size of the bedrooms – particularly the double-height master with its big balcony with views all the way to the mountains. It's the perfect place for coffee before heading to the pool for a swim each morning.
