Welcome to Desert Digs, a midcentury escape in the historic Ocotillo Lodge, located in South Palm Springs just minutes from downtown. Built as a luxury hotel in 1956 with renowned architects Dan Palmer and William Krisel, the property was originally designed to attract celebrity clientele, and was a popular destination for Hollywood elite such as Elizabeth Taylor, Frank Sinatra and Lucille Ball.

The bungalow is located in one of the best locations within the complex - the unit’s wall of windows open to a spacious private patio with direct west mountain views . Relax on the patio while enjoying the sunset, spend the day basking in the sun at the champagne cork shaped heated pool, or enjoy hanging out at the iconic Sunshine Bar (BYOB).


The bungalow was renovated with its midcentury history as inspiration. It features floor to ceiling sliding glass doors, tile floors throughout, sleek and minimalist kitchen cabinets, and a 260 sq foot patio. The condo has a full kitchen (cooktop - FYI no oven!), dishwasher, washer/dryer and BBQ. The bed is King Size and very comfy! The location of the property is within walking distance of shopping and restaurants. Come and enjoy all that South Palm Springs has to offer!

    We loved both the condo and the facilities at the Ocotillo Lodge. The condo was adorable, clean and had ample drawers/storage to unpack. Everything about it made us feel at home during our stay. Our host Kelsey responded to all my pre-stay questions immediately and she left a very thorough guest book. The Lodge and pool were beautiful and we found the other guests to be lovely. We will definitely recommend Desert Digs to others and hope to be back again!!

    The host very welcoming and helpful. As older adult guests, the host was patient and quickly responded to our questions. The amenities were as described plus some extras that were not expected like the portable fire pit. The sofa and bed were very comfortable! The shower was good quality and warm! Loved the Mid Century decor throughout. Nice kitchen and a great dishwasher! Thank you for a lovely stay!

    It was a quiet unit outside the gated pool area and hot tubs which can be loud till midnight when the Canadians are in town.Definitely would rebook.

    This is a great rental — cute, clean and a wonderful host. The pool, jacuzzis and grounds at the Ocotillo are amazing and true to its midcentury modern roots. Love the location too, central for everything in the area. Highly recommend!

    Fantastic place to stay in Palm Springs. Close to everything, including downtown. Condo is perfect for a couple/two people and has everything you may need. Bed is comfortable and the outdoor patio is awesome with great views. Community pool is large with plenty of chairs and beautiful views of the mountains. Owners were very nice and friendly to communicate with. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

    I thoroughly enjoyed this property. It's cozy and comfortable with awesome Palm Springs vibes. The property is spotless and very well equipped.....the owners have thought of everything a person could need! The bed is very comfortable with nice crisp linen. I couldn't ask for better or nicer accomodations.

    Lovely place, well appointed. It was cute, clean and charming. It had everything you would expect and the property is very quiet. The pool was nice and warm and we loved taking morning strolls around the Twin Palms neighbourhood. The homes were beautiful, the view of the mountains was spectacular. The check in was as easy as it can be in Palm Springs (there are a lot of short term rental restrictions/rules in PS). We loved the location - you are outside the heart of the city, but you get to see some different places and everything is 10 minutes away regardless. We walked to neighbourhood bars and restaurants.

    We loved this unit at the Ocatillo Lodge. It was spotless, great bed, remodeled kitchen and bathroom with a washer/dryer inside the unit. We especially loved the two bikes that came with the condo! The owner, Kelsey, provided everything we needed and was very responsive. Loved our stay!

    We had a great time here. The accommodation was exactly as described and the host was extremely easy to contact with questions. We thought the welcome snacks/coffee was lovely, and the bikes were great to get around the area easily. Highly recommend!
