Caliente House is undoubtedly one of the most impressive vacation homes in the desert, so don’t hesitate to make your holiday “extra hot” with a stay at this unique property. From the moment you arrive at this impressive home, you will be wowed by the elegant facade prior to even stepping inside the peacock blue double front doors. Upon entering, the magnitude of the luxurious ambience inside commences with the charcoal porcelain terrazzo inspired floors that stretch across the living spaces. These are enveloped by dark brown walls, colorful and graphic wall installations, and gallery white areas that create stunning dimensions while setting a soulful atmosphere.
The formal living area unfolds in front of you, with an oversized L-shape sofa, club chairs and cognac leather armchair with ottoman providing ample sumptuous seating for all guests, as well as some extra visitors you’d love to show this home off to.
The centerpiece is a vintage rams’ head coffee table, while high ceilings and large panes of glass - split by a gold finished fireplace - create a light and airy feel, offering views to the garden.
Through the extra wide doorways, the second living area presents itself, dominated by a daisy patterned wallpaper set behind a midcentury style sofa from which you can relax and take in your choice of show on the 65” wall mounted television. Alternatively, sit at the built-in wet bar, inspired by something from a James Bond film with its gold patterned front, complimented by midcentury-styled gold pendant lighting.
The home is decked out with not only high quality barware and glasses, but an abundance of vintage glass pieces, including many Murano items and vintage lamps. Meanwhile, wherever you are in the home you can also enjoy your soundtrack of choice with a Sonos system as well as a Bose bluetooth speaker.
The dining room presents an elegant glass dining table with gold legs, surrounded by six silk chairs, conveniently located next to the the newly remodeled kitchen with its rich walnut cabinets, black hardware and dark brown quartz countertops and desert hue-inspired backsplash.
As well as the golden pendant lighting above the counter providing stool seating for another three, the fully-stocked kitchen is finished beautifully with modern, high-end JennAir appliances.
For accommodations, Caliente House provides three bedrooms, each with en-suite bathroom…
The oversized primary suite presents a beautiful hotel quality king-size blue velvet bed with luxurious 100% cotton percale Brooklinen linens and matching chaise lounge. A wall-mounted frame TV provides something to watch when not taking in the mountain views through the floor to ceiling windows. A walk through closet provides both ample storage space as well as a luxurious built-in bench to sit on.
Proceeding to the large en-suite bathroom, you will enjoy a walnut-faced double vanity, free-standing bath, and extra large walk-in shower with Spanish-inspired charcoal patterned tile, all set in front of the large window, giving you an inside-outside feel.
The home’s second bedroom presents a similar level of luxury, again delivering a king hotel quality mattress and 100% cotton percale Brooklinen linens framed by a walnut headboard with built-in nightstands, and hanging ball pendant lights. Once more there’s a wall-mounted frame television, abundant closet space and en-suite bathroom with walnut-faced double vanity, this time accompanied by a large white textured tile walk-in shower.
This beautiful home’s third bedroom can be utilized as a study with its desk and convertible leather daybed. A blow up Queen bed is also available. The gold-patterned wallpaper in this room completes the midcentury aesthetic beautifully, while the hall bathroom here features the same level of finish with vanity, toilet and walk-in shower all at your disposal.
Heading outside, you’ll immediately recognize this is the epitome of Palm Springs living… The salt water pool with inbuilt spa is the centerpiece of this magnificent area, surrounded by 4 sun lounges, a luxurious conversation area and an outdoor kitchen complete with grill, fridge and sink, plus additional stool seating.
All framed by palm trees and mountains for days, a grassed area provides the perfect spot for some outdoor games, while the adjacent fire pit provides the place for a cooler desert night’s stargazing.
The outdoor amenities don’t stop with the backyard though, as out front you will find an additional outdoor lounge and seating, plus a second fire pit, allowing you take in a different aspect of the magnificent views on offer.

Neighborhood highlights
Located in the quiet and upscale neighborhood of Indian Canyons in a highly desirable area of South Palm Springs, Caliente House is a modernist fan’s dream with amazing period architecture and dazzling views at every turn.
Indian Canyons, formerly known as Canyon Country Club, was the first fully planned community in Palm Springs. Built in the 1960s on a championship golf course, it’s a beautiful mix of distinctive mid-century architecture. You can tour many of these homes during Modernism Week each year in February. For the modern architecture lover, it's an event not to be missed! Stroll down to the club and have a cocktail while looking out over the amazing fountain donated by Walt Disney himself. Rumor has it that it was a gift after the golf pro helped his son improve his handicap.
The Smoke Tree Village strip mall is less than 5 minutes drive away, giving you a supermarket and many other services, as well as a host of tasty restaurants to choose from.
The Deepwell Antique District is also about 5 minutes drive away for all the best midcentury finds, while Downtown Palm Springs itself can be reached in under 10 minutes, giving you an even more extensive range of cafes and eating options, as well as shopping galore.
