eLROD vILLA pALM sPRINGS: lUXURY vACATION rENTAL gALLERY

The Elrod Villa is a fabulous vacation rental villa with accommodations for up to six overnight guests—featuring three bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths, a private pool & spa, and amazing mountain views. We offer our guests a luxury vacation rental experience with hosted check-in, a fantastic local property manager, comfy beds, robes, a well-appointed kitchen, beautifully-maintained grounds, and much more! The tiled pool and spa are original to the home and surrounded by the same beautiful travertine marble used inside Elrod Villa.

At night, the patio and desert garden around the villa light up so you can enjoy beautiful Palm Springs nights.

Elrod Villa features one of the world's largest residential installations of LIFX color-changing LED lights. Here, some of the interior lights are turned purple. It's all controlled via a convenient iPad tablet, which also controls the pool, spa, fountain and streams audio to the home's amazing stereo system.

Our beautiful courtyard welcomes you to Elrod Viilla. Immense steel doors, like the main entrance shown here, are a recurring design feature inside and outside the home.

“When you walk in, you feel like a member of the Rat Pack loaned you his pad for weekend.”

— Guest Craig G., Nov 2015

We couldn't have said it better, ourselves!

A view of the indoor dining area and kitchen. The built-in buffet cabinet, like the other built-in fixtures, is original to the home and was designed by Hal Broderick of Arthur Elrod & Associates.

“The kitchen has every appliance you could ever imagine, the pool is not only modern and beautiful but it is also surrounded by a carefully manicured garden with stunning artwork incorporated in it. At night time everything lights up and is truly spectacular... The beds are super cozy and the bathrooms are beautiful.”

— Guest Alex S., April 2016

The living room features classic mid-century furniture, a glass rock gas fireplace, walls of mirror and glass and fun, contemporary art.

Glass walls look out to the terrace with a luxurious tiled pool, oversized spa, desert garden and unobscured, panoramic views of the San Jacinto mountains.

What space-age bachelor pad would be without a wet bar? It's always Happy Hour here at Elrod Villa!

Looking from the bar to toward the master bedroom, you can see the beautiful burlwood desk and cabinets designed for the original owner—another gorgeous piece by Broderick and Elrod.

Our Media Room converts to a third bedroom with pullout sofa sleeper (roughly Queen-sized). Media features include a plasma HDTV, awesome stereo system (the speakers are concealed in the side-most cabinets of the built-in, streaming Airplay/Bluetooth music, DVD/CD player and cable TV with all available premium channels.

What looks like a mirror is actually an immense steel door that leads to the Guest Bedroom.

Another view of our Media Room. From this perspective, you can really see the gorgeous travertine floors, which are original to the home.

As in the living space, the bedrooms feature glass walls that look out into the garden.

“My husband and I went to celebrate our 19th anniversary. This place is great, super clean, secluded, and private. We had a blast and will definitely come back again... Overall we highly recommend this property to anyone who wants to experience full relaxation, while being close to everything else. It's the perfect getaway! I can't wait to go back.”

Another view of the Master Bedroom. Yes, there are interior doors here! They slide away into the walls... You can see one of them at the left of this image.

There's a lot of mirror and glass at Elrod Villa. This is one view of the Master Bath, showing the amazing stand-up glass shower and closets for days (with mirrored doors, of course).

Another view of the Master Bath. In addition to the stand-up shower, this bathroom has a jacuzzi tub, which is just beyond the doorway shown in this photo.

The Guest Bedroom also has an en-suite bath. Our Guest Bath includes a combination tub/shower with groovy mid-century fixtures.

Intriguing design details and artwork are found throughout the villa and its grounds.

This is the exterior gate to Elrod Villa—another amazing steel door. The grounds of our home's complex are beautiful and worth wandering about when you visit us. Just down the path pictured here is our community’s public pool—guests of the villa can use that large pool and spa in addition to the private one at our home.

The fountain feature makes a lovely sound to enjoy while you lounge in and around our private pool.

Our south-facing pool is sunny nearly any time of day, in all seasons. (And for the sun-shy, we have a large movable umbrella to provide a bit of relief from the intense desert sun.)

Lou the Pool Duck is waiting to take a tub with you... Don't let him down! Plan your escape to Palm Springs today.

One of the most interesting features of this unique home are the space-age control panels found throughout. This one is hidden in a compartment next to the master bed. Like the whole-house audio system, these are original to the home.

Some of the built-in cabinets are divided for vinyl. This is one of your host's favorite little details.

Our unobstructed San Jacinto mountain view makes for some amazingly dramatic sunsets. We can't guarantee you'll see one like this (shot from our pool in summer of 2015), but we highly recommend observing cocktail hour by the pool at sunset each night... Just in case.

On occasion, mermaids have been known to appear in our pool. We can't guarantee this will happen during your visit, so best to bring your own.

Wondering how this all fits together? Perhaps this floorplan will help! Elrod Villa features 2400 Sq. ft. of living space inside, sourrounded by travertine patio, desert gardens and a high privacy wall.
