Photos and Description of the Palm Springs vacation villa rental
Villa, 3 Bedrooms + Other (See Description), 2.5 Baths, (Sleeps 4-6)

The Elrod Villa, located at the historic Palm Springs Racquet Club was the playground to Hollywood’s most glamorous celebrities. Originally designed by Hal Broderick of Arthur Elrod and Associates, this masterpiece of design has been toured by The Smithsonian Institute, The L.A. Museum of Contemporary Art and featured in Architectural Digest.

The living and dining rooms set the stage for elegant entertaining with soaring ceilings, extensive use of indirect lighting, fireplace, bar, and Italian travertine flooring that extend to the outdoors. Walls of glass overlook the terrace with a luxurious tiled pool, oversized spa and dramatic panoramic views of the San Jacinto mountains.

The residence offers 2,400 square feet of living space, including two bedrooms and a spacious den (or third bedroom). The Elrod Villa can sleep up to 5. Conveniently located within minutes of downtown restaurants, shopping and nightlife.

About stacy brand

Stacy Brand and her husband Guy Brand have been living in Los Angeles since 1994.

They frequent the Elrod villa with their french bulldog Moomi to relax by the pool, enjoy the beautiful mountain view and soak in some desert sun!

stacy brand purchased this villa in 2007
Why stacy brand chose Palm Springs

My husband and I stayed at the Elrod for a weekend in 2006 and fell in love with it.

It's such a unique place, filled with classic palm springs glamour and architectural history.

A year later our friend who let us stay at the villa told us it was for sale, and we just had to take it!

What makes this villa unique

The villa is 2 units combined- so it not only has a larger floor space but is also a private, free-standing home complete with a fenced in backyard / patio area and it's own private pool and spa.

We are three couples, being friends for over 30 years and love to travel.
Elrod Villa is one of the best places we ever stayed.
Private house, private pool, BBQ area, comfortable big beds, gorgeous mountain view, birds on the flowers. The property is very spacious and very clean. Kitchen equipped with all the latest cooking tools. The sound system is incredible. We played our favorite music and even danced a little. New big screen TV in entertainment room, WI-FI is available. In another words this place has everything you might want for your nice, quiet and relaxing getaway.
We had amazing time and love to come back.

Elrod Villa is Fantastic!

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Apr 2, 2013

We had such a great time at Elrod Villa. The house is gorgeous and it was fun learning about the collaboration of Sigmund E. Edelstone and Hal Broderick in it's creation all profiled in the Sept 1975 issue of Architectural Digest which you can read is well stocked study! We are big Mid-Century Modern fans and it was a treat to stay in such a fantastic home. Plus, the kitchen and bathrooms are brand new and exceptionally well done!

As an aside, we took a Modern Architecture tour with Palm Springs Historian Robert Imber, which any fan of the Mid-Century shouldn't miss either!

Mid Century Knockout

Even if your not a fan of this amazing style this home's amenities abound. From the grand living and dining room to the media room where its flat panel TV can be viewed from the master bedroom, to its amazing and dramatic evening lighting on the pool and landscaping. This property is the perfect getaway for a couple or couples, the suites are amazing, its as private as one can get, the views of the San Jacinto's are breathtaking every morning. This Villa is a treat and the owners have created a destination all its own here. Oh did I mention you open your closets and everyone has a light... Imagine that.

Completely as Promised!!

We loved our stay at Elrod Villa last week! It's just as advertised--modern, large, open, bright and remodeled with a great, private backyard and beautiful view of the mountains. The location seems a little far out until you realize that within a mile or so, you are right in the heart of Palm Springs with all of its shops and restaurants. The kitchen is great, with all the modern appliances you'd expect. We especially liked having a computer on site--that was very convenient.

The bed is comfortable (king size), the master bathroom and dressing room are dreamy and the overall presentation is modern and sleek -- just our style! Reed was very helpful and we lacked for nothing. Definitely a "come back to" place for us. Thanks Stacy and Guy

"If the Getty Museum had a villa attached to it, it would look like this.”

Travertine and mirrors from floor to ceiling, massive doorways, 15 ft. ceilings, superb lighting, and works of art hanging from every wall. That is what describes Elrod Villa.

Palatial doors and windows with views of the pool and gardens. Outdoor sculptures and works of art surrounding the pool. Custom modern furnishings, and lighting that engulfs the whole villa with detail. Jet tubs, multi-head stream showers, skylights, state of the art sound system, modern kitchen. Silk upholstered walls and closets.

This beautiful home also has a stunning private pool and Jacuzzi, impeccable landscaping, and private patios. It is a true oasis.

A relaxing and quiet atmosphere that takes you to a different time and place. In short, an architect's and interior designer's dream home.

A must for the most discriminating taste. Can't wait to return.
