Welcome to The Milben House, an iconic Meiselman and a true mid‑century treasure in sunny Palm Springs. Thoughtfully furnished and designed with guests in mind, this classic 1950s retreat embodies the indoor‑outdoor lifestyle that draws visitors from around the world. Whether you're gathered around the pool with friends or exploring the desert's endless beauty, this home sets the stage for unforgettable memories.

The open floor plan seamlessly blends the dining area, kitchen, and living room, creating a bright, social space that flows naturally to the outdoors. Just one step through the glass sliders and you're on the private patio - perfect for morning coffee, watching the kids splash in the pool, or simply soaking in the desert sunshine. This poolside retreat is yours to enjoy day or night, complete with a sparkling pool, spa, BBQ, and fire pit that make outdoor living effortless and inviting.

Inside, the amply stocked kitchen is ideal for both seasoned cooks and casual chefs, offering expansive counter space and everything you need to prepare meals with ease. Friends and family can relax in the living room while you cook, or gather together for movie nights and big games on the smart TV. High‑speed Wi‑Fi, cable, and streaming apps ensure everyone stays entertained.

The primary suite is a bright and calming sanctuary featuring a king bed, television, ceiling fan, closet space, and direct access to the outdoors. The en‑suite bathroom includes a large walk‑in shower and a spacious vanity. Two additional guest bedrooms in the main house each offer a king bed, television, ceiling fan, and stylish décor, sharing a hallway bathroom with a walk‑in shower.

For guests seeking extra privacy, the detached casita sits just outside the front door with its own private entrance. This versatile space features two queen beds, a television, ceiling fan, board games, pool access, and an en‑suite bathroom with a walk‑in shower - perfect for families, teens, or anyone wanting their own retreat.

The backyard is pure Palm Springs bliss. Lounge by the sparkling pool, unwind in the spa, or gather around the fire pit as the desert evening cools. The covered patio offers a dining table for six, while the adjacent grassy area provides space for play and relaxation. Whether you're grilling, sunbathing, or stargazing, this outdoor space is designed for connection and comfort.

Located just minutes from downtown Palm Springs, The Milben House places you close to shops, restaurants, art galleries, and the city's vibrant nightlife. You're also within easy reach of casinos, the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, world‑class golf courses, and major events like the BNP Paribas Open.

    This was a wonderful place for a group of girlfriends. Plenty of seating for us to chat and plenty of bedrooms and sleeping spots for us to have some privacy as well. Pool area is lovely.

    We went to celebrate a cousins retirement. We are all very close and had the most wonderful time. We are all over 65yrs old and comfort is an absolute must. We were not disappointed. Accommodations were fantastic and the beds were all comfy. Pool was great and heating it was great. We are planning on going back in June to celebrate another retirement. Found great places to eat and shop.
