Enjoy the famed southern California sun and style at Maison du Soleil. Set in the Las Palmas neighborhood of Palm Springs, the villa is a short walk from the citys Uptown Design District and a short drive from the botanical garden, golf and more. A sprawling outdoor living area lets you soak up rays beneath the palms, and four suite-style bedrooms make the ranch home feel spacious and inviting.

Tucked behind a tall hedge and under a row of palms, the villas backyard is the perfect private spot to spend your stay. Start each day with a coffee at the lounge area on the houses covered terrace, then move to the row of lounge chairs in the sun, the pool or the hot tub. In the evenings, mix cocktails at the palapa-style outdoor bar, fire up the gas barbecue and enjoy dinner at the al-fresco dining area. Theres also an indoor bar, game room and Wi-Fi if youd like to relax indoors after a day of sightseeing.

The villas warm, open interiors feature a mix of traditional and modern design. In the great room, comfortable sectionals in neutral tones are paired with sleek red lounge chairs and black leather Barcelona seats. Up to eight guests can come to dinner at a gleaming glass-topped table centered in a bay of windows. The fully equipped kitchen has a practical island layout, plenty of granite countertop and contemporary artwork for a playful touch.

Each of the four bedrooms at Maison du Soleil has an en-suite bathroom and lounge area. The master suite has a king bed and opens directly to the patio. There are two other bedrooms with king beds, one of which has a walk-in closet, and one with a queen bed. Large windows, neutral tones and a comfortable mix of traditional and modern furniture make each bedroom an eclectic retreat.
