Poolside Gossip - Swanky Mid-Mod Retreat

PS City ID# 066168 | Primary renter must be at least 25 years of age to rent (Proof of age required) | No Pets Allowed Welcome to Poolside Gossip, a quintessential Palm Springs escape where history, design, and leisure converge. This walled and gated mid-century gem was showcased in the world-renowned Modernism Week 2025 Palm Springs Paradise Home Tour, a celebration of desert style, bold design, and architectural heritage. Here, retro flair meets modern comfort in a vibrant getaway designed for relaxation, conversation, and memory-making. Beds: K,K,K (convertible to T/T). OUTDOOR LIVING SPACES The distinctive yellow front door opens to a private oasis framed by manicured lawns and lush hedges. At the center, a shimmering pool with inset spa invites you to lounge in the sunshine, nap on the outdoor daybed, or gather around the fire feature for starlit evenings. Multiple patios, a gas grill, and alfresco dining for ten make it effortless to enjoy the desert lifestyle. Towering palms and the dramatic San Jacinto Mountains complete the picture. ** The pool will be heated upon request with an additional service fee. Please let us know if you'd like to heat the pool so we can ensure it is heated before your arrival. If you home has a spa or hot tub, heating the spa is included with your rental at no extra cost ** ** Please Note: 1. This fee is not included in the quoted price on some booking platforms. 2. Pool heating may be added in minimum of 3 day blocks per request ** INDOOR LIVING SPACES Inside, bold pops of orange and blue bring 70s glam to life. The living room is anchored by marble floors, a sleek fireplace, and walls of glass that blur the lines between indoors and out. On the wall, you'll find Shag's nod to the Kaufmann House, The Incognitos, alongside iconic Slim Aarons photography—including portraits of Palm Springs' own Helen Dzo Dzo, muse of Poolside Gossip and later wife of architect Hugh Kaptur. The kitchen is bright and modern with stainless steel appliances, a cheerful breakfast bar, and everything you need to prepare meals. The adjacent dining area seats eight and flows seamlessly into the living room and patio, perfect for entertaining. SLEEPING QUARTERS The primary suite is a private retreat with a king bed, TV, ensuite bath, and direct access to the patio for late-night stargazing. Two additional king bedrooms—one convertible to twins—share a sleek hall bath with a walk-in rainhead shower. Each bedroom is thoughtfully styled to balance comfort with vibrant retro flair. THE HISTORY Poolside Gossip sits within Desert Dorado, a residential development designed in the early 1970s by Hugh Kaptur, one of Palm Springs' most prolific architects. Known for innovative desert modernism, Kaptur created a series of cul-de-sac homes that embraced indoor-outdoor living with clean lines, open layouts, and bold use of glass and space. Today, this home continues that legacy, blending architectural heritage with a playful, modern-day resort vibe. THE LOCATION Nestled in the tranquil Oasis Del Sol neighborhood, Poolside Gossip offers peace and privacy while being just minutes from downtown Palm Springs. Explore nearby Palm Canyon Drive with its shops, galleries, and restaurants, or enjoy hiking in the nearby canyons. Whether you're here for design, leisure, or both, this is Palm Springs living at its finest.

Great house. Had a few issues since we stayed for a while- but everything was handled in the end and we had a wonderful time with friends and family. Bed was super comfy! Close to downtown too.

I almost never leave a review, but this rental for five nights in Palm Springs was just so beautiful and perfect that I had to write this. We stayed at poolside swanky gossip in Palm Springs. It was beyond 10/10. Beautifully appointed, pristine and clean; a perfect location… And the welcoming email with instructions was clear, concise, and thorough. Was easy to reach them throughout the stay via text. This place was magnificent and I simply cannot recommend it highly enough. The house had everything you could ever imagine wanting or needing and the outside landscape in pool area was just as beautiful as the inside. Worth every penny… Was just wonderful
