The space
One of our recent guests summarized Plaimor Paradise perfectly, as a "private resort." What's more, our historic mid-century "Alexander" was designed by William Krisel, and was TWICE featured on Palm Springs' Modernism Week tours (2018 and 2022).
We furnished our vacation house with love, and we did it in a way that you will love too. Remember, WE stay here frequently, and insist on a first-rate experience for ourselves and our guests.
Guests always rave most about our backyard. We have a beautiful salt water pool and spa, complete with mountain views. Then of course there is the fire pit, where you will probably hang out at far more than you imagined.
Also, our beautifully landscaped lot is HUGE - at 17,000 sf it is far bigger and more spacious feeling than the standard 10,000 sf that almost all other comparable properties have. (Look closely at outdoor photos when you compare properties.)
The well lit, open floor plan, modern kitchen includes quartz countertops, a Keurig, coffee maker, garbage disposal, adjoining bar chairs and stainless steel appliances. It is extremely well equipped, with all the cooking utensils you need. (We've had a few celebrity chefs say here.)
We furnished the house largely with high-end midcentury modern furniture and relevant art. The mattresses are high-end Beauty Rest and very comfortable. We also included fun items like a bar cart, Princess phone, a 1958 replica Stratocaster guitar, Wii, family board games and kitsch items like a bulldog cookie jar and pig bookends. People tell us they love the polished concrete floors. Clock radios are Bluetooth compatible. For entertainment, we went high-end with a Sony 55" 4K smart TV, Apple TV, DVD player and a Sonos sound bar and subwoofer. We even included wifi-connected 32" smart TVs in all three bedrooms. The property also has strong, fast WIFI averaging more than 100 Mbps.
Check out the photos and contact us to reserve your stay!
Note: the property is very popular, so please avoid missing out by booking as soon as you decide you'd like to stay here.
Finally, we find that people often choose our house for its subtle creative touches. Past guests include various Hollywood celebrities and executives, interior designers including a director from HGTV, Silicon Valley engineers, artists, epicurean Europeans, and all kinds of creative professionals.
Whether you and your family or friends view yourselves as "Bohemians," we invite you to enjoy our stylish, midcentury modern respite. Feel free to book now, or reach out to us if you have questions.
Guest access
You have complete access to our private paradise, with the exception of the owner's closet and two on-property storage units. We will provide you a custom lock code for the house.
Because Plaimor Paradise is a house and not a hotel, our cleaning crew requires time to do the fantastic job they do. What's more, because the property is extremely popular, it often books back to back to back. Therefore, check in is at 3 pm, and check out is at 10 am. If you would like to request an early check in or late check out, let us know in advance and we will do what we can to help. Sometimes we can give you an extra hour without cost, or allow you to check in at 10 or check out at 3 for an extra $199. Please note, however, that during the busier seasons we oftentimes cannot accommodate these special requests.
Note: the house and pool living spaces are of course 100% private. For your protection, we do have security cameras on the front entrance and side yards.
Other things to note
Welcome to Plaimor Paradise!
As we said above, we are willing to share our premium vacation house with nice people who will treat it as they would their own. I am sure you'd feel the same way too.
So, please help us by telling us a little about yourself and your guests, including ages, how many people, why you are coming to Palm Springs, day jobs, interests, etc. Note, we can only accept requests from people who have gone through the AirBnb ID verification process. We are very transparent about our background and house, we would like our guests to do the same. Thanks in advance on that.
Remember, non-registered guests cannot stay overnight, and there are strict occupancy limits in Palm Springs. Absolutely no parties or events!
Also, a special note to spouses who are charged with finding the perfect family vacation getaway. I (Clara) totally understand! When I am looking for an AirBnB or resort for our family, I work really hard to find the PERFECT place. We did everything possible to make this property live up to our own very high standards. Rest assured, you and your family will love it.
Now to the business part...
The city of Palm Springs levies an 11.5% transient occupancy tax, and a 1% tourism tax, to all vacation rental stays for less than 28 nights. Also, there is an optional $65 per night pool and spa heating fee (except June through September when heating is free).
Dogs, if accepted, require a one-time $100 per dog extra cleaning reimbursement. We also ask owners to not allow dogs on the beds and to clean up any messes they leave behind.
Since AirBnB cannot include pool reimbursements in your quote, we will handle that upon your booking. We will also send you a (city required) rental agreement to confirm the booking, relevant city statutes, house rules and all the details.
Our minimum stay requirement is 6 nights, with very rare exceptions. If you are interested in a shorter stay, send us a request rather than attempting to instant book. Beware there is a bug in the Airbnb system that sometimes allows people to errantly reserve a shorter stay, even though our settings require 6 nights minimum.
A special note to long-term guests. You can save a bundle in taxes and get an additional long-term discount by staying 28 or 29 nights. If you would like to stay 30 nights or more, please reach out to us via Airbnb messaging.
To confirm your reservation, you'll need to 1. Accept payment terms and dates through AirBnB, 2. Accept the Special Request for pool heating if applicable), 3. Provide proper identification and, 4. Approve the rental agreement.
We will make things easy for you by helping you through the process.
We invite you to book now, or reach out to us if you have questions.
