Palm Springs Deauville

World Famous Palm Springs Deauville

Read our Reviews from Happy Guests at our Palm Springs Deauville Luxury Rental

Immaculate, Tastefully Decorated, and Very Comfortable

  • Guest: Mary

I’m a long-time vacation renter. Staying at 304 at the Deauville was one of the best locations in my opinion. I’m a walker, and I was within minutes of great restaurants, shops, the museum and now even groceries.

Julie was such a warm, welcoming host. She took the time to welcome me in person and give me the full tour of the unit and the property. The unit was immaculate, tastefully decorated, and very comfortable. I appreciated all of the safety features included with the unit. I had already booked elsewhere for 2024, definitely hoping to get back to the Deauville.

Immaculate Condo in a Great Location

  • Guest: Sal

I’ve rented several condos before, but this is the first unit I’ve rented that had an overabundance of kitchen supplies and was so tastefully decorated. I found unit 304 at the Palm Springs Deauville to be immaculate, extremely clean, and with a very comfortable King-sized bed. I hope to return soon.

A Gem! Beautifully Furnished and Well-Maintained

  • Guest: Joan

As a frequent traveler, I rely on reviews and want to praise this little gem and its thoughtful owner. The apartment is beautifully furnished and well maintained. There were so many touches that I appreciated. Coffee and chocolates to greet me upon arrival. A spa robe to wear to the pool. Workout equipment and yoga mat. Tasteful  art work.  One of the most comfortable beds I have encountered.

The deck which overlooks a lush garden area is ideal for dining, working  outside or taking a nap on a chaise lounge. The kitchen is well appointed and I did a lot of cooking but if you prefer, it’s an easy walk into town to many restaurants.

The location is one of the things I most liked about the Deauville. It is just down the street from the Palm Springs Convention Center where I attended both art and modernism exhibits and just a few blocks from Koffi, a great coffee house with an outdoor plaza  overlooking the mountains that I visited frequently. It’s also an easy walk to downtown with its many attractions.  But much of my time was spent at the Deauville where I swam or enjoyed the spa almost every day at one of their three pools.

Julie was very responsive as a landlady, offering suggestions and even ordering a microwave cover when I requested one. It’s clear she takes great pride in her beautiful property and in sharing it with responsible and appreciative guests. I have stayed at numerous properties throughout Palm Springs and this was the best. Unlike some others, it was quiet and the grounds were impeccably maintained.  I hope to return.

Thoroughly Enjoyed Our Stay!

  • Guest: Don

Unit 304 is a fabulous place to spend a winter month in Palm Springs. The fully equipped condo decorated with Palm Springs vibe, includes a large wide screen TV, a very comfortable Tempur-Pedic King size bed and even tennis racquets and pool equipment. The beautiful Deauville complex is located just two easy walking blocks from the downtown center of shopping and restaurants.

Julie, the owner, is incredibly responsive—always ready and willing to take care of any problems that might arise. This was our second stay in 304 and we could not have been more satisfied. Highly recommended and easy to give a 5 star rating!

Superb Digs!

  • Guest: Lorraine

Easy to summarize. We’re booked for next year.

I Loved It!

  • Guest: Captain Tim, USN
  • Date of Stay: July, 2019

I recently spent a month (July 2019) in unit 304 of the Deauville, Palm Springs. Let me just say that I felt like I was staying at a Four Season’s Resort. The unit has a modern design and decor (fully fitted with every convenience), and has THE most comfortable King Bed I have slept on. Talk about dreamland!

The owner saw to every detail, met me on arrival with keys, and a fully orientation to the property. Prime Cable TV and WIFI so you will be fully connected during your stay. Awesome bedding and towels, not to mention the finest bath soaps shampoos.

Did I like staying at Deauville unit 304? NO, I loved it!

Great Condo. Can’t do Better at the Deauville

  • Guest: Kathleen
  • Date of Stay: March, 2019

We have been renting this unit for two months for a few years and recommend it highly. As noted by others it has been nicely renovated, which is not true for some units at the Deauville, and has everything one needs for short or long stay. The owner takes meticulous care of the property and is constantly upgrading – a new dishwasher and washer/drier this year. Julie is very responsive and immediately fixes or replaces anything that needs attention.

Charming apartment close to all that “Old” Palm Springs Offers.

  • Guest: Neil
  • Date of Stay: January, 2019

We stayed at the Deauville for the month of January 2019. It had been about a decade since we stayed in Palm Springs as we have been staying in Palm Desert for our sunshine vacations. We were looking forward to staying in Palm Springs again and the Deauville was to be our home for a month.

The apartment is nicely furnished and had everything we needed to make our stay complete. If we had wanted to dine out, there were dozens of good restaurants only a short walk away. However, we dined in most evenings and found the kitchen to be well-equipped to meet our needs. In addition, there was a great new barbecue for those times we wanted to grill. The king size bed was very comfortable

The Deauville has a large and very clean pool and hot-tub that we enjoyed as well.The grounds are beautifully landscaped and manicured. A real bonus at this time of the year was that the lemon, orange and grapefruit trees on the property were heavy with newly ripened fruit. The owner was a pleasure to deal with and was very responsive to us those few times we had a question or request.

Great location and well equipped

  • Guest: Virginia
  • Date of Stay: November, 2018

Spent a month and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Owner was exceptionally easy to deal with. Julie met us on our arrival, showed us around the complex and explained how to set/change the thermostat etc. The condo was very clean and bright and would definitely recommend this unit to our friends and relatives. Thanks Julie, it was a pleasure meeting you.

Perfect Palm Springs Retreat

  • Guest: L & A
  • Date of Stay: September, 2018

We have been to Palm Springs many times but this was our first time staying at Deauville. It will certainly not be our last.

This was, by far, the best Palm Springs accomodation we have ever rented.

The location is fabulous. A short walk into downtown is an amazing asset. Plenty of under cover parking spaces mean a no hassle entry and exit to the gated Deauville.

The apartment is superb. Recently remodelled with beautiful furnitures and furnishings. Plenty of beautiful glasses, crockery (enough for 12place settings) , cutlery, pots, pans and gadgets make the kitchen a joy to use. Every single thing we needed was there, at hand and in immaculate condition. Kettle, coffee maker, toaster, huge fridge/freezer, washing machine and tumble drier. What else could you need?

The bedroom is perfect and the bed is oh sooooo comfortable. Bed linens and big, fluffy towels were plentiful and having two bathrooms was superb. Gorgeous bath robes made this feel like a really posh hotel.

The outside area has a barbecue and a table with seating for 5 for al fresco dining. Also 2 extremely comfortable loungers to relax on. Heavenly.

The grounds and pools at Deauville are beautiful and all very well maintained. When we were there it was so peaceful and quiet that many an afternoon nap was had by the pool.

Julie the owner is so nice. She called us to make sure we had settled in and had everything we needed. Caring but never intrusive. She has the most remarkable local knowledge and her restaurant recommendations were great. A lovely lady who obviously loves Palm Springs and her home there. The attention to detail makes this place a wonderful, unique place to vacation. Thanks Julie for sharing your Palm Springs home with us.

The most beautiful condo and a relaxing trip

  • Guest: Susan
  • Date of Stay: May, 2018

One of the Most Relaxing Trips to Palm Springs. I went to Palm Springs in May, worried about the heat, but was treated to beautiful weather and spent every minute possible on the patio, not inside with A/C. This unit at the Deauville has an inviting large private gated patio with two chaise lounges on which to relax and a table with four chairs for outdoor dining. The patio gets morning sun and a lot of light. I enjoyed having breakfast and coffee in the mornings before I went to the exercise room for my daily workout. The big plus for me is that it never got too hot in the afternoons due to the shade and warm breeze on the patio.

Inside, the place is fully stocked and has great amenities such as stainless appliances, wine and margarita glasses, all new furniture, and an entertainment center.

At night, I walked every day to town (about a 5-10 minute walk and only three short blocks away) to hear live music and for dinner. I especially enjoyed being so close to the Thursday night street fair and loved the outside patio at the brand new Tommy Bahama restaurant. Great for people watching and misters to keep cool. I also walked to the Palm Springs Art Museum for the Andy Warhol exhibition. I think the point is, you can’t beat the location, and this unit is a complete gem, being completely remodeled, fit with a huge flat screen TV, very fast WIFI, and two full bathrooms.

The owner was easy to communicate with and it’s obvious she has the pride of ownership and wants her renters to feel like it’s their own vacation home.

If you’re traveling by air like I was, you are only a few miles from the airport, which is convenient after a long day of travel.

It was a terrific stay, and I highly recommend this unique and quiet unit at the Deauville for it’s a great location within the complex and the easy walk to town.

Another wonderful stay at the Deauville

  • Guest: Kathleen
  • Date of Stay: February, 2018

My husband and I returned to Julie’s lovely condo at the Deauville for two months in the winter of 2018. This was our third year renting her unit and, as our history suggests, I can’t speak more highly of the property and our experience renting from her.

This unit is exactly as described and pictured on VRBO. It was renovated about four years ago, has updated kitchen appliances and a bright airy appearance. Our favorite space is the large balcony with an eating area, grill and chaise. Julie keeps the condo in tip-top shape and is constantly replacing items that get worn and adding new features such as the new mattress and reading lamp this year.

We have had nothing but first-rate service from Julie. She has a very professional approach, responds quickly to any situation that arises and quickly replaces items that might wear out, e.g., this year it was a coffeemaker.

The Deauville is a wonderful community with many attractive features, a large pool, two small pools, two tennis courts and three hot tubs. The grounds are very attractive and well kept with beautiful landscaping. We have found the owners and renters to be very friendly. You can engage as much or little as you wish.

Can’t go wrong with this property.

Great place to spend a month in Palm Springs 

  • Guest: Don
  • Date of Stay: January, 2018

Very nice, updated and comfortable condo, located in a beautifully landscaped complex. Location just two blocks from Palm Springs central is ideal. Very comfortable king-sized bed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Even better the second time

  • Guest: James
  • Date of Stay: October, 2017

This was my second time staying in this unit at the Deauville and I couldn’t be happier. The owner is meticulous with maintaining the place to perfection. Just like the other reviewers said, the location of the property and the fine detail with the decor and amenities, makes this unit particularly desirable with repeat guests like myself.

I particularly liked reading the paper and having my coffee on the patio in the mornings, and walking just a few blocks to town.

Check the calendar and book this unit before it fills up. I’ll be back again.

Clean, modern, comfortable and a pleasure to stay

  • Guest: Mitch and Eida
  • Date of Stay: April, 2017

Very nice unit, modern and clean. The kitchen is well equipped and was easy to cook (a hand held lemon/orange squeezer would be a nice addition). I accidentally broke the coffee bowl and the owner had one delivered to our doorsteps in two days. The patio is very quiet and has a BBQ which is new and is excellent; we used it quite often. Only a few steps from tennis courts and swimming pools but back enough from them so you do not get any noises. Also it only takes a few minutes walk to downtown shops and restaurants as well. We look forward to return again next spring. We highly recommended.

Very lovely, in a great complex

  • Guest: Gale
  • Date of Stay: February, 2017

This was our 2nd visit to the Deauville complex and Julie’s unit fit it to a “T”. She has beautifully decorated and, perhaps more important, fully outfitted the kitchen with more than enough dishes, glasses, and utensils. If we looked – it was there. The towels are thick and full, the sheets soft. As with all units 2 full bathrooms are a treat. Sleeping is easy on a very comfortable mattress. Having family on the East Coast we appreciated the included long distance. Very nice outdoor space. Suggest you read her information book found on the kitchen counter to find the pool floats and other useful information.

EXCELLENT STAY

  • Guest: Joan
  • Date of Stay: January, 2017

This is the best condo unit of the many we have stayed at in the past. The resort itself is large and well-looked after with beautiful landscaping. There is one large pool and 2 smaller ones all with their own hot tubs. The condo was on the first floor with a large comfortable outside balcony/patio. Inside, the condo was quite spacious with lovely comfortable modern furniture and accessories. The owner Julie was very helpful. Always available by phone or email if we had any questions or needed help. We stayed for a month and met many fellow owners who made us feel very welcome. They have a weekly app/drink get together every Wednesday at 5:00 in their club house to which all guests/owners are invited. Thanks Julie for a wonderful stay. Look forward to a future stay at your condo.

FABULOUS PALM SPRINGS CONDO

  • Guest: Lori
  • Date of Stay: December, 2016

My husband and I booked this unit at the Palm Springs Deauville based on the photos on VRBO. In all honesty, the photos didn’t do the unit justice. The location (close to downtown) and privacy of this unit were beautiful. Once we walked inside, we were so delighted to see such a pristine condo, with a warm feel to it, and amenities that you’d find in a luxury hotel. The owner has decorated this newly remodeled unit with the cheery colors of Palm Springs (white, yellow, and turquoise with silver accent pieces). In our closet, there were two terry cloth robes for us to use when we went to the spa at night, and a hotel type of suitcase rack. I haven’t seen this in other condos. There are three pools, three jacuzzis and two tennis courts on the property, all within walking distance. The kitchen seemed large with a nice open floor plan with granite counters and stainless appliances. There was a small washer/dryer right inside the unit for our convenience. It was a quiet location and we will definitely be returning again next year.

Absolutely Beautiful Condo

  • Guest: Susan
  • Date of Stay: November, 2016

We spent a month in this condo and we were happy that this property was meticulously maintained and in pristine condition. We like to walk, so it was easy to walk a few blocks to town for music and dining. The location can’t be beat and there is so much to do or simply relax by the lovely pool. We’ll definitely choose this condo the next time we come to Palm Springs.

Perfect for a relaxing stay in Palm Springs

  • Guest: David
  • Date of Stay: June, 2016

The Deauville property was fantastic, the unit beautifully decorated, modern, and with the feel of classic Palm Springs in a great location, close to the center of town and convenient to all of the restaurants and shops. Everything was just as it was depicted in the pictures and listing.

The owner, Julie, was very conscientious, meeting me personally at check-in to acquaint me with the unit and the property. Plenty of information to help an out-of-towner settle in. The unit contained everything that we needed for our stay, the kitchen was modern, the bedroom extremely comfortable, and the amazing patio was quiet and the perfect spot for morning coffee, lunch, or an afternoon cocktail. Julie checked in with us during the stay to make sure that everything was in order (everything was perfect!), she clearly loves Palm Springs and her unit, and it shows in her hospitality and consideration for her guests.

The Deauville was fantastic, convenient underground parking, wonderful grounds and pools that were quiet and relaxing, even in the summer heat. Close enough to walk into town. We couldn’t be happier with our choice, would definitely recommend and return to the next time we’re in Palm Springs.

Great Time at the Deauville

  • Guest: Stuart
  • Date of Stay: August, 2015

Our stay in this crisp clean condo was very refreshing. The location could not be better. Located just off the main boulevard in Palm Springs, it seemed that everything possible was only a moments walk away.

The pools and the facilities are top notch. There was a very calming energy to place.

Every Possible Amenity and Comfort — The Perfect Home Away From Home

  • Guest: Harry
  • Date of Stay: June, 2015

We stayed in this unit for a month while our home was being remodeled, and it was one of our most enjoyable vacation experiences ever. The owner met us and personally welcomed us, and every possible comfort had been taken into account in this perfectly-located and beautifully-maintained home. From the sleek lines of the designer furniture to the lovely linens and towels, the plentiful dishes and glasses, the thoughtfully color-coordinated decor items, numerous telephones, terrific high speed internet, impressive flat screen televisions, pool toys and terrycloth bathrobes, and a lovely patio with a huge barbecue and convivial seating, you may just feel that your own home could benefit from some of the wonderful touches this unit offers. I would happily recommend staying here to anyone with the most discerning taste and an appetite for both fun and serenity.

A Marvelous Month at The Deauville

  • Guest: Joy
  • Date of Stay: June, 2015

Our month at this condo was superb. Loving the heat, we followed the sun to escape the Australia winter and thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Deauville and at this condo — such a thoughtful and well decorated place. It is clean, modern, fun, has terrific amenities. Everything we could have needed or wanted was right there. Especially loved sitting on the condo’s spacious patio in the early mornings and going in one of the multiple hot tubs late in the evening. An ideal holiday. Can’t wait to be back.

Perfect Location

  • Guests: Dianna and Gene
  • Date of Stay: February, 2015

We spent a month in this lovely condo and could not have been more pleased with the condo, the complex or the location. This was our first visit to Palm Springs and it certainly won’t be our last. The owner met us at check-in and walked us through the condo and the grounds. There are 3 pools, nice gym and well-groomed grounds. The condo is just 2 blocks walk to downtown Palm Springs with great restaurants, bars and the Thursday night street fair which was great fun. We walked everywhere! The condo is well appointed and clean. We especially enjoyed the large patio and grill. A quiet, gated community that we were pleased to call home for a month.

Canadian Seniors

  • Date of Stay: January, 2015

Beautiful contemporary, spotlessly clean one bedroom condo. Landlady was excellent to work with….prompt answers to e-mails and questions; even phoned us a few times. Directions from the Palm Springs airport to the condo were excellent. The landlady even had her parents meet us at the condo and show us around the property. Brand new dishes, appliances, towels. Landlady ensured that the condo would be clean in time for our arrival in Palm Springs. Just a nice 4 block walk to the restaurants and shops on flat terrain. There are 6 or 7 steps to get into the condo but not onerous if you are in average condition for a Senior. The Casino is one block away (but very smokey) as smoking is allowed indoors. The only negative was that the main bathroom tub drips if you don’t have the knack for clearing the water from the shower head. Great accommodation! Jump at it, as it already has bookings for 2016.

A Very Nice Unit

  • Guest: Mark
  • Date of stay: December, 2014

The Deauville Condos great advantage are their location. It’s a very short walk to Palm Canyon Drive and the downtown shops and restaurants. This is a real plus. There is a very sizable swimming pool, which is heated to a good temperature during the winter months. It’s as well to remember that a lot of the pools in Palm Springs are not. Two good quality tennis courts, one of which is floodlit. Julie’s unit itself is similar in design to all the others, but she has decorated it in a modern style which means there is good light. Another important point to consider. It is situated in the centre of the complex making it more secure than might be the case round the outside. Not too near the pool which means it’s quiet. All in all a very good choice.

5-Stars

  • Guest: Jerry
  • Date of stay: November, 2014

My wife and I have vacationed in Palm Springs for many years and this was our first stay at the Deauville and we LOVED IT!! It is the perfect well maintained resort with underground parking, three swimming pools, a gym and tennis courts and Julie’s unit is only steps away from everything. Staying in this unit was like staying in a luxury boutique hotel nestled in a Luxury Resort.

We have already booked our return visits. Check the Calendar for open dates and book it. I know you won’t be disappointed! THANK YOU Julie

Relaxing and Beautiful Amenities

  • Guest: Desert Lover
  • Date of stay: June, 2014

My husband and rented this unit at the Deauville and we felt like we were in a brand new hotel suite. All the kitchenware and towels were new and it even came with two terry cloth robes for us to wear while going to the spa at night. It was quiet and convenient to the pool and parking. We’ll definitely come back.

Fabulous Holiday Getaway

  • Guest: Heidi
  • Date of Stay: May, 2014

WOW… Fabulous I’ve been coming to Palm Springs for many years and usually stay in fine hotels. This time, I stayed at this unit at the Deauville in May and felt like I was in a beautiful hotel suite at a fraction of the cost. The location to downtown Palm Springs was perfect. We walked into town and strolled up and down Palm Canyon Drive while listening to live music at several local restaurants. The pool area was spectacular and I even found the time to exercise in the gym. For those who enjoy Casino life, the Spa hotel casino is right across the street. We managed to both relax at the beautiful Deauville pool and enjoy the nightlife. The unit is well appointed with white, turquoise, and yellow accent pieces and the newly remodeled look was perfectly inline with the vibe of Palm Springs. I will definitely come back to this unit again.

Deauville Condo

  • Guest: KN
  • Date of Stay,: March, 2014

My husband and I stayed in this condo for the month of March. The property is in a gated 200+ unit complex located within easy walking distance of downtown Palm Springs. Although the Deauville was built in the 1980s and some units are dated this one has been completely renovated and is exactly as depicted in the photos. The unit is small but adequate for two people. A pullout queen sofa can accommodate an occasional guest but I think the living space would be cramped for four people staying an extended period of time. A definite plus was the large shaded patio which expands the space and which we used for many meals. The condo does not have mountain views but does overlook a pleasant courtyard with grass and plantings. Another plus was an extremely comfortable king bed. Potential renters should be aware that most of the Deauville units require climbing a short or full flight of stairs which might be an issue. This unit is about 10 steps above the underground garage and another short flight from the courtyard.

The Deauville is a large complex with well-maintained, grounds and plantings. An especially attractive feature for us was the large heated pool suitable for swimming laps. It was rarely crowded and had shaded as well as sunny seating areas. There is also a small exercise room with the usual equipment. Since most of the owners/renters are retirees, the Deauville is quiet and attracts the over 55 crowd. While we saw some visiting families over the school vacation it might not be the best choice for young families as there is no playground or other attractions for children.

The owner has put a lot of thought into the renovations and is very responsive if a problem arises. She greeted us on the first day and has a good information packet available. We would highly recommend this property.

ALWAYS: Location / Location / Location

  • Guest: Johnny
  • Date of Stay, April, 2014

I have been traveling extensively for the last 44 years of my life. When searching properties, of where to stay, location has always been, on top of my wish list. The Deauville had met all of my criteria. It is conveniently located a few walking blocks, to downtown Palm Springs. The goal of parking my car and walking everywhere was met 100%. I walked to the Thursday night weekly “Street Fair”. I enjoyed the local night life and farmer’s market, literally 3 blocks from the property. The other reason I selected this particular unit, was because it was newly renovated in a modern contemporary decor. Everything had been updated in this unit, such as bathrooms, kitchen, and all the furnishings. It even including new flat screen TV’s, and yet the unit, still captured the current charm of Palm Springs. This is why I’ll return to this unit, at the Deauville. It had everything I could ask for and more, such as a nice new stainless barbecue grill, which I utilized and enjoyed.

Ideal Location

  • Guest: MaryAnn
  • Date of Stay, February, 2014

We found this property to be exactly as listed. It was clean, modern, and had everything we needed. The owner came by to meet us and offer any help we needed. The grounds were beautifully maintained. The property is within walking distance to activities and restaurants. A car is not a necessity for a short stay. We definitely would recommend this property to others.

Perfect Getaway!

  • Guest: Lori
  • Date of Stay, December 2013

I rented this condo for a month and absolutely loved it! My two kids and I really loved the condo and property it is located on. The property is well taken care of and the main pool is fabulous. We enjoyed picking fresh grapefruit, oranges and lemons everyday and loved the location which is walking distance to downtown. It is quiet and peaceful there and the weather was perfect…sunny and mid 70’s and 80’s everyday! I enjoyed it so much that I will be returning again next year. I only wish I could stay longer than a month! Thank you for providing such a lovely place to escape to! 🙂

Beautiful Weather…Fabulous location. Very Romantic

  • Guest: Happy Wife
  • Date of Stay, October, 2013

My husband and I arrived in October to find beautiful weather and a relaxing pool environment. The owner was there to great us and showed us around the property. We’re tennis players, so we enjoyed playing in the morning and there was no one else on the tennis courts. We walked to town for dinner and drinks and had a romantic dinner dining outdoors at Kaiser Grill. Since this was our anniversary, we felt pampered in the bedroom with a four poster King sized bed and comfortable linens. We heard the sound of fountains while having drinks on our patio. We wish we could have stayed longer and there was everything we needed with new utensils and colorful dishes. This was more affordable than staying in a small hotel room. We could see the fine details of the home decor and he loved the big screen TV in the living room. We couldn’t have asked for more.

A Romantic Retreat in the Desert

  • Guest: Lauren
  • Date of Stay, July, 2013

In the past I stayed in an older unit at the Deauville in Palm Springs; I thought that was great! But this time I really fell in love! I already knew the location was great (you can walk to town) and I LOVE the pool area…quiet, peaceful and perfect water temps! But this unit has beautiful modern furnishings and everything is brand new! The owner provides all you need from dinnerware and towels to shampoo and spa robes. The photos shown are accurate; although the pool looks better in person. I will be back!
