Nestled in the exclusive Araby neighbourhood of Palm Springs, which was once home to the likes of Bob Hope and Steve McQueen, this luxurious villa makes for a dream desert base. Just moments away from South Palm Springs Business District and the world-famous Palm Canyon Drive, this tranquil location can't be beaten. From the moment you arrive, you’re bound to be dazzled by this home’s stylish design and picturesque setting. Carefully thought out as the perfect retreat, it certainly lives up to this concept, boasting everything from a glistening pool and spa to those sweeping mountain views and a sleek, elegant interior. Come inside to find a large open-plan living and dining area, with plush furnishings and a warming fireplace. You’ll be able to kick back and relax on the comfy sofa and enjoy evenings of movies and wine, and the glass walls will provide you with nature’s own spectacle. Should you have some work to catch up on, there’s also a dedicated office here – finish any laptop duties just in time for a delicious supper, which can be served indoors or outside by the glow of the fire pit. There’s also a barbecue out here to make those alfresco gatherings even more fun. A night of sweet dreams awaits in the luxurious bedrooms, which, along with the spa-like bathrooms guarantee a fully relaxing and restful experience.
