Forget mid-century inspired – this central Palm Springs bungalow is the real retro deal, and we couldn't love it more. Sweeping onto the private driveway of this architectural masterpiece is like stepping back in time. And things only get better inside, with collectable sputnik feature lights, original teak antique pieces, and curated artwork bringing all the Palm Springs vibes. Spend lazy, hazy days hopping between that saltwater pool and spa Jacuzzi outside and soaking up the desert sun from the landscaped terrace. You can always cool things down a notch beneath the retractable awning with the patio misters on full steam – what bliss. At dusk, as the sun dips behind the magnificent canyons in the distance and the garden lights begin to glow, this place takes on an ambient feel that's so very LA. Get together for barbecues at the alfresco dining area – the views of the mountains are magnificent from here. Then keep the night flowing with some post-dinner drinks in downtown Palm Springs (just a short drive away). Just be sure to squeeze in some time for stargazing around the firepit before you lay your heads – it's quite a show.
