Welcome to Desert Martini, a classic 1961 Krisel mid-century modern in Racquet Club Estates, about 5 minutes to downtown Palm Springs.

Inside you get an open, social layout. Outside you get the full Palm Springs setup: private saltwater pool, hot tub, fire pit, and multiple lounge and dining areas with mountain views.

The Desert Martini showcases the highly sought-after Krisel floor plan, built in 1961, a true Palm Springs mid-century classic.

The post-and-beam architecture is designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, with clean lines, natural light, and an effortless flow between spaces.

Step into a newly refreshed mid-century modern interior, thoughtfully styled with period-inspired décor, Smart TVs, and a well-equipped entertainer’s kitchen that works just as well for quiet mornings as it does for hosting friends.

The home features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms:
Primary bedroom with a king bed
Guest bedroom with a king bed
Third bedroom with a full bed

The open living area opens directly to the backyard, creating an easy transition to outdoor dining, the saltwater pool, spa, and fire pit.

There is ample space for guests to spread out, relax, and enjoy the Palm Springs lifestyle.

Spend your days soaking up the desert sun and mountain views by the pool, and your evenings unwinding by the fire pit, in the hot tub, or indoors by the fireplace. Whether you are here to recharge, entertain, or simply slow down, The Desert Martini offers a comfortable, stylish setting for making Palm Springs memories.

    We loved this house! Very comfortable, clean and the quality of the kitchen items was nice. There are fruit trees in the yard, which delighted us asMidwesterners. Would love to come and stay again.

    We visited over Spring Break (March 19-24). The property was amazing and we spent the majority of our time in the pool. Nights were spent around the fire or in the hot tub. The entire family had a great time.

    I have to say that my stay at the Martini was amazing. The property looked exactly like pictures, the check in process was very easy, and my kids really enjoyed themselves. Thank you so much

    This a a very pleasant stay. The home has a delightful living area with open kitchen concept perfect for cooking. The property manager, Chris, was easy to communicate with and responded promptly. Regardless of the small issues with the house we were a little put off by the NO MUSIC signage all over the property as well as being reminded every time the management company emailed you reminding you of the Palm Springs city ordinance of not playing any music anywhere. We get it, we have a tourist town beach property as well and people do get out of hand but please, just ask us to be respectful to the neighbors. Overall I think the house experience was a good one. Very nice neighborhood. Enjoyed waking up to the view. I think it would be in the owners best interest to take a portion of rental fee for upkeep.

    Unfortunately the property shows better online than it does in person. The house was not well kept, required maintenance, and it's definitely the worst property I've ever booked on vrbo. We thought we were getting a higher end property, but it felt more like the house of a college student. Unfortunately the house was so unsatisfactory that we checked out one night into our 6 night stay.

    My family and I had a wonderful time in this home. The children loved every moment in the pool. The house is beautifully decorated and had a lot of wonderful amenities. It is very close to Palm Springs Downtown and therefore, in a convenient location to great restaurants and stores. We took some lovely walks in the morning with the children. There are beautiful views all around from the home. We didn’t even feel like we had to leave the house to have a good time. I would definitely return here and also would highly recommend this house to others!

    This is an adequate house but not up to the standard we are used to in Racquet Club properties at the same price point. Main issues for us - lack of adequate cleaning, bathroom faciliites in need of significant repair, inadequately maintained palm tress resulting in black berries all over the deck around the dining table, intense squealing noise from the furnace when it first starts up, house is directly under the flight path of aircraft The pool is nice. Finally, we have had no response from Micheal to our request for a document showing the per diem cost for the days we paid for but were not in the house due to the need for early return home following a hiking accident. As said above - disappointing.

    It’s a nice little house, but the walls are thin and sound carries. It had most of what we needed for the week, but nothing was great quality. The pool heating is not included in the up front price which seems a little ridiculous. The rental company is very easy to deal with. All in all it was ok— not great, not terrible.
