This white-and-turquoise time capsule in Palm Springs' Racquet Club Estates neighbourhood is a glamorous example of breezy mid-century modernist design. Masterminded by architect William Krisel (the man who kickstarted the trend for Palm Springs' contemporary glass-dominated homes in the 1960s) it features teal chairs, a white-bricked fireplace and flat-screen portrait TV set to display modern art in the light, bright living room. The moss-green splashback and white cabinets in the kitchen are delightfully retro, but the modern oven, double fridge and coffee-maker are state-of-the-art. The bedrooms all have sliding glass doors that lead out to the patio, letting in an abundance of that joyful Californian sunshine. Outside you'll find the pièce de résistance – the private pool and bubbling hot tub. Both are heated, perfect for when the desert chill creeps in. There's also a firepit to keep things cosy, and a covered outdoor dining area with a gas barbecue where you can watch stars twinkle over the mountains at dusk. If you still need a little extra help unwinding, your host can also arrange for a poolside massage. Bliss.
*The host can organise all sorts of extra services, including daily cleaning or a private chef. Please let your host know at least three weeks in advance
