Elegant & Minimalistic Bungalow at Ocotillo Lodge

Relax in the comfort of your private bungalow, complete with mountain views, a private patio, modern and elegant decor, and all of the conveniences of the famed Ocotillo Lodge community.

The Ocotillo Lodge complex was built in 1957, and is considered a major work by architect William Krisel. This midcentury bungalow was fully restored and reimagined in 2021 by the Scandinavian owners, a minimalist architect and textile designer, to suit their aesthetic philosophy and lifestyle.

The light and mountain views from the south-facing unit are wonderful, and the large glass wall separating the living space from the patio accentuates the indoor-outdoor connection.

South Palm Springs is such a lovely place to stay. You can walk or bike through the Twin Palms neighborhood, eat or shop at the Smoke Tree Commons, and so much more. Koffi is a block away, as well as the Ace Hotel. There are so many restaurants within walking distance of your Palm Springs bungalow, you will probably need to stay longer than you anticipated. Downtown Palm Springs is a quick Uber ride, trolley ride, or drive from your space.

Amenity limitations — The cold water can run warm in the daytime during hot weather, as the pipes are routed over the roof. Also, the wall-hung toilet is a water-conserving toilet, meaning that it may require multiple flushes at times.

Potential for noise — The concrete block party wall behind the bed is not acoustically insulated, i.e. when laying in bed guests may be able to hear talking/music from the adjacent unit.

NO animals or pets of any kind are permitted at the Property. If pets were to be brought without our consent and knowledge, guests will have to pay twice the pet fee or will have their reservation cancelled immediately.

This is a NON-SMOKING property - no smoking or vaping inside or outside the unit.

Any fines, citations or penalties imposed against us for actions triggering a violation of the City of Palm Springs will be deducted from the security deposit. Such examples can be found in our House Rules.

In the City of Palm Springs, Occupant must be at least 25 years of age or older. By continuing with this reservation, Occupant represents that they are older than 25 years of age and further warrants that other occupants are either over the age of 25, or are accompanied by an adult guardian.

NOISE: Palm Springs has strict ordinances that govern vacation rentals. In particular, we want you to note that `NO outside music is allowed at vacation rental homes.` I know, we all love our tunes out by the pool, but it`s just not allowed by law. Music may not be heard at the property lines at any time of the day (that includes music coming from inside the home). Please abide by this rule so you don`t get fined by the police, and so we don`t lose our vacation rental permit.

OCOTILLO LODGE COMMUNITY RULES:
NOISE: Please note that this is a residential community, and be courteous when entering and exiting the building. Quiet hours are from 10pm to 7am, and sound carries through our courtyard style complex. To avoid noise violations being charged to your group, please keep your guests inside of the condo during the quiet hours. Keeping the windows and doors closed helps tremendously.

TRASH: If you need to take the trash out during your stay, the community trash bins are located on the west (mountain) side of the clubhouse.

POOL: The pool is in the central courtyard, and has posted hours of operation. Please comply with all pool rules, do not use the pool after the posted hours, and be courteous of neighbors in regards to noise level while you swim/sun. No glass is allowed at the pool.

PARKING: Parking is not assigned. Feel free to park at the gate closest to your condo.

SMOKING: All smoking, vaping, and use of e-cigarettes is prohibited in all Common Areas and Exclusive Use Common Areas in the Community (including but not limited to shared and exclusive use patios, pool, spa, Sunshine Bar, all walkway, parking lot surrounding the complex, etc.). “Smoking” includes, but is not limited to, any practice by which any substance (such as tobacco or cannabis) is burned for the purpose of inhaling its smoke. “Vaping” includes, but is not limited to, inhaling vaporized water, solvents, or other liquids to inhale tobacco, cannabis, or any other substance. “E-cigarette” includes, but is not limited to, any electronic device that vaporizes liquid nicotine, cannabis, or any other substance for inhalation. Any other smoking or similar activity which causes a nuisance or disrupts the quiet enjoyment of other Members or Occupants is also prohibited. Nothing in this Operating Rule A (11) shall pre-empt, limit, or affect any other Operating Rule.

Guests will be charged the TOT and TBID taxes.

Please review all community and house rules in the guest manual within the unit.
AIR CONCIERGE
House Rules and Requests

These are the house rules and requests for this home, managed by Air Concierge, Inc. for the homeowner. Please read them before you book — by booking, you agree to follow the house rules for this stay.
If you booked anywhere other than Airbnb, your reservation is also governed by the Air Concierge Rental Agreement you sign before check-in, which controls if it conflicts with these Rules.
Stricter HOA, city or permit rules control where they apply. Where a law or a documented HOA/building rule requires a signed form, an ID check, or other paperwork for this home, that requirement is disclosed in this listing before booking.
Airbnb`s own policies control between you and Airbnb. Nothing in these Rules asks you to pay a fee for a cleaning or checkout task, and Airbnb does not enforce these Rules — if there is damage or an extra documented cost from a stay, we will raise it through Airbnb`s Resolution Center with documentation.

IF SOMETHING ISN`T RIGHT — TELL US FIRST
This is a privately owned home, not a hotel. No staff are on site. It is cleaned and inspected before you arrive, and things change between a morning clean and an afternoon arrival.
Message us as soon as you notice anything. We use best efforts to respond in real time and to start work as fast as we can; some repairs need a part or a licensed trade and take longer.
If we fix it, or give you a reasonable workaround, within a reasonable time, no refund or credit is due.
If a problem makes the home unfit to occupy or removes a major part of its use, and we cannot fix or substitute it in a reasonable time, we credit the nights actually affected, offer comparable accommodation if available, or reschedule.
Please don`t leave without telling us. We can`t credit a problem we were never given a chance to solve.


WHAT WE DON`T REFUND FOR — examples, not a complete list
Insects, spiders, webs, rodents, wildlife and birds native to the area, and pest treatment. Wind, dust, sand, pollen, ash, smoke, haze or debris, including on decks, patios, furniture, pools and spas. Weather of any kind, and the travel conditions it causes - snow on the road, chain controls, delays, or a drive you would rather not make. If a government order closes the only access route so that you cannot reach or occupy the home, that is handled under force majeure below.
