The Desert Rose, a Mid Century pink home

House was exactly as described and was a lot of fun.

The bungalow was as described. The back yard is beautiful and well maintained, a real oasis to enjoy the Palm Springs sun. The house itself needs some upgrading but is functional and the beds were comfortable. The host was not responsive to our questions (except with regards to one issue that needed urgent attention) but everything worked out and we had a good stay.

There is a mildew smell. It’s a dated home filled with campy art. Many of the windows don’t open and drapes don’t open as well. Fuzzy phallic on wall over toilet. I have no problem with the phallus, but a fuzzy stuffy stuck to the wall over the toilet?

Great place to stay

Fun = 10 out of 10

The house is in a great location and super comfortable.

My girlfriends and I rented this beautiful house for a long weekend and fell in love with it! We plan to book again if we can :)

Our stay was nice and relaxing the host was very responsive when we had an issue with the kitchen faucet which was very minor. The only issue we had was that there was no manual for how things worked ie the dishwasher which we looked up to see how it worked. The host did provide instructions on the other equipment thru email but a manual in the house would benefit everyone in your party. Overall it was very relaxing and a great experience.

Clean, very close to downtown Palm Springs, mid century modern through and through. Definitely recommend.

Pros: We loved the decor, furniture & updated bathrooms! The smeg appliances were a nice touch, but didn't function that well. Loved the apple TV & the master bed was SO comfortable. The location is great & is well landscaped. The vintage stove/house features were really cool to see. Cons: Our main issues with the property was that the pool was very dirty - we arrived on Friday, despite pool guy supposedly coming the day before, and there was a ton of dirt/debris in the pool and the walls could really use a scrub. The kitchen had a strong odor around the sink & I wasn't sure what Water turns on 3x a day meant (and why? and how would we know when to use it?). Small ants crawled on the countertops in the kitchen. Sliding doors were original, so the locks didn't function - but I did appreciate the alarm features it had just in case. Some of the artwork was a bit creepy if I'm being honest. The Also, scissors & a frying pan in the kitchen would be very helpful. Overall, this place served its purpose & photographs very well. But I kept trying to angle the pool out of pictures due to it being so dirty.
