Desert Starlight: Stunning Modern Pool Home

Welcome to "Desert Starlight" – Your 5-Star Palm Springs Oasis!
Immerse yourself in luxury and style at Desert Starlight, a meticulously remodeled (2024) Mid-Century gem originally designed by the acclaimed architect William Krisel for the Alexander Company in 1957. Experience the perfect blend of historic character and luxurious modern comforts, where every detail has been curated for an unforgettable stay.

Relax in Style – Outdoor Oasis Awaits
Step into your private desert paradise, surrounded by lush gardens and breathtaking mountain views. Start your day with a refreshing swim or relax on the Baja shelf of our saltwater pool. As the day winds down, enjoy a BBQ lunch on the natural gas Weber grill and dine al fresco at one of the poolside tables (seats 10). On cooler evenings, soak in the spa, sip champagne, or gather around the fire pit to enjoy stunning sunsets over Mount San Jacinto.

Outdoor Features:
Saltwater pool and spa
Mountain view courtyard with a cozy fire feature and hammock.
Furnished, professionally landscaped patios on all four sides of the house offering privacy and space to relax.
Ping pong table in the garage for some fun time.
Enchanting night lighting, perfect for evening gatherings.
The open floor plan offers a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor spaces:

Spacious Living with a Mid-Century Vibe:
Living Room: Modern art, a gas fireplace, comfortable seating, a large-frame TV, and a fully equipped wet bar.
Dining: Indoor dining area for 10 guests, plus a breakfast room for 4 with pool access.

All New Kitchen:
A chef’s dream with high-end Thermador appliances, Nespresso, SodaStream, and more. Cabinets have been thoughtfully labeled to make meal prep a breeze. Behind the wall of cabinets in the breakfast room you'll find board games, a small book library and a multifunction printer.

Luxurious Bedrooms – Your Private Retreat
Desert Starlight offers five deluxe bedrooms, each designed for comfort and privacy. Each bedroom has luxury mattresses, quality linens, and TVs.
Primary Suite: Features a king bed, desk, Frame TV, and a spectacular en suite with indoor/outdoor showers and a private patio with an egg chair – the perfect spot for day dreaming.
Guest Rooms: One king bedroom, one twin (2) bedroom, and two casita-style en suite bedrooms accessed from the pool area, each with king beds, en suite bathrooms, and semi-private patios.

Unbeatable Location in South Palm Springs
Enjoy easy access to local gems! Walk to Koffi South for a fresh, locally-roasted espresso, or head over to the Amigo Room at The Ace Hotel for a craft cocktail. A short drive takes you to the best of Palm Springs' shops, restaurants, and nightlife.

Experience the True Palm Springs Vibe
Feel the essence of the 1950s Palm Springs glam with this historically authentic home.

Great house in great location

We had a really nice weekend at the house. It is well stocked and has a great pool. We did have some issues that were beyond the management company's control and they were great at addressing quickly and completely.

It Takes A Family

Our family enjoyed a marvelous reunion in Desert Starlight. It was the first time all 10 of us, across 3 generations, had all been together in almost two years due to Covid and distance.
