The Ricardo mid-century modern vacation rental was once owned by a close friend of Lucille Ball and was Lucy's Palm Springs hideaway. Located near the once popular El Mirador hotel, The Ricardo is a 5-minute drive to downtown Palm Springs. With tall green hedges, amazing mountain views, and zero traffic noise, you can see why Lucy felt a strong sense of privacy and relaxation during her time at the property.

Stayed Apr 29, 2025We had a such a great stay. The home was incredibly clean and decorated beautifully. We had our 1.5 year old with us so we chose this home so there would be plenty to do while he napped and after he went to bed - we were not disappointed! Highly recommend.

Stayed Aug 10, 2024The house was accurately described, clean and very local to downtown Palm Springs. Communication was easy and fast with our host. Very family friendly, had a lot of amenities within the property and kept my 1 year old entertained during the entire weekend! We will definitely be back to the Ricardo in the near future!
