Location was not the best. All bedrooms were on the side of a very busy street - so lots of traffic and very loud at night. Even with white noise on through a speaker. Beds were comfy though. One TV only in the house. None in any of the other rooms. Just the living room. The property managers missed my request to heat the pool. So a day delayed but fine. Checkout is 10am. We asked if we could extend and they said no. 10am seems a bit early for checkout. For being so pricey a night - just expected a nicer experience. Not an awful house, by any means, just some inconveniences.

Springtime in PS

We had a great trip. We loved the backyard and the pool and spa. The natural light in the house is fantastic with all the glass sliding doors. The front street noise is definitely noticeable when in the bedrooms. If you are a light sleeper this might not be the right place for you. We used ear plugs making it okay for sleeping, but the house is on a busy road. You do not hear it in the backyard, but loud in the bedrooms and noticeable. The bedrooms are in the front of the house and single panel windows. Overall though a great rental. The kitchen has a lot of great cookware and supplies.

Just about perfect

Exactly what a rental should be! Great house, beautifully furnished with everything you need. Super communicative and helpful management company. Wonderfully maintained pool and spa. Close to everything. And absolutely no checkout to-do list (other than lock the door behind you)! Other reviews talk about street noise - and there is some, but it was a complete non-issue for us. There’s also light in the bedrooms early, so if you’re a light sensitive sleeper, you may be up early.

Birthday Weekend!

Girls' weekend with my daughters and our besties! I looove the heat, so Palm Springs in July is perfect for me. The MCM was on point, everything was super clean, there was plenty of space for eight to play and six to sleep (following the rules!). The road is very loud with many firetrucks, but we were close to everything including the Best Bookstore, Pink Palm, thrift stores, groceries and great Mexican food. This house was spectacular and the pool was amazing. Already planning our next trip.

Beautiful and peaceful

The house is beautiful and the amenities were great. The area is very quiet and peaceful. There was a reviewer who mentioned the car noise from the busy street but the noise machines in the bedrooms are great at canceling it out. The pool accessories could use a refresh. Other than that our stay was perfect and ACME is great at responding with any questions. Definitely will stay here again!

Great house and amenities. Right on a busy road which was not ideal but each room was equipped with a white noise machine which helped. Kitchen was fully stocked and great for cooking meals. Pool and hot tub were perfect. Loved the decor, furnishings and overall ambiance.

Racquet Club Estates

Home was very comfortable and our family really enjoyed the pool while our dog loved the yard. After some initial issues with pillows which Acme resolved quickly our stay went well. One of the problems with vrbo bookings is you never know the exact location until you confirm the booking. The home is on a very very busy street and the traffic noise detracted from our stay, particularly in the early morning rush hour - you could not sleep in past 6:00am! A very nice home but a very poor location.

Unbelievable Beauty and Peace in a Historic Home

I love ACME. Their service team are responsive and helpful. They are managing glorious mid Century Modern dreamboats with every mod con you'd need. The pool and jacuzzi were heated (it is winter!) and the kitchen was full of plates and glasses and cooking accoutrements. A guide was provided, updated, to tell you where to eat and drink. The bed was ultra comfortable! It was amazing, having two bathrooms! Not used to that at all. We came for the PS Film Festival, and I would def return and book an ACME home. Because these are not just houses. This place felt like home! We had a view of the mountains to die for, and could watch the tram make its way up the mountain at night. If I could ask for anything, it would have been perhaps some standing lights, so that you could sit, for example, on the sofa, and read a book, without having to use the overhead lights. But this is a small request. We loved our experience!

Best Place to Hide Out

We lost our home and needed a place to stay for over a week as our new home got ready. This mod house with a pool was a fantastic break in our frantic reality. It's very different from how we normally live, and we love that. We even learned a few things about midcentury modern architecture thanks to their well-chosen books in the house. And the pool was just right! Highly recommended.

Mid Century Dream

The property was perfect as it checked off all the boxes for us. The interior is very clean, roomy and comfortable. My only suggestion to be more family friendly, would be to add another TV in the primary bedroom or office as there is only one television in the living room. This home overall was our favorite out of all the PS rentals we had thus far. We definitely want to rent this home again.

Great getaway!

This property is as stunning as pictured and had all of the amenities one could want. The pool and yard were perfect and the location is great being located so close to downtown; dining and shopping. The house was also right near a playground which was ideal for our young child. Only downside is it’s location on a busy street with bedrooms located at the front of the house with decent road noise. We would still stay again regardless.

My wife and I stayed four nights and enjoyed every minute. The house is well decorated, yard was immaculate and super private. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub, but if you want to use the hot tub make sure you turn it on well before you want to get in, it seems to take a while to heat up. Great stay!

We spent 5 delightful days in PS for a wedding. We brought our children and their spouses for a family rendezvous. Lots of relaxing time around the pool/hot tub. The white noise machines in each bedroom worked well to block street noise. ALMOST close enough to downtown shopping and restuarants to walk, but a very short drive. Would stay again for sure!!

Mid-Century Modern

Great example of period architecture that is well maintained from an exterior and interior design perspective. The neighborhood is off of a busy street, which wasn't an issue for us, but can be noisy. It is also in a windier part of town. Once again, it is part of the town and topography, not a fault of the property. Well-appointed kitchen, fun interior design, clean and well-maintained. Owner provides towels for the pool. Third bathroom off of the pool is nice so don't get tracking through the house. Perfect for our stay and all-in, very nicely done.

Our stay was very enjoyable. It's a beautiful pool and yard. The house was clean and easy to access. In the evenings, there were some cicadas that dropped in the pool, which freaked out my wife, but she's deathly scared of any bugs. I'd stay here again. There is a grocery store 5 min away and downtown Palm Springs is 10 min away.
