There is a fee of $75 per pet, per stay. Please remember that cleaning up after your pet is your responsibility, and pets should not be left unattended in the home to avoid noise complaints. * Extra pet fees (plus tax) will be added through our guest portal after your reservation is confirmed. Kindly inform us if you’re traveling with a pet. ☆ Pool heater: The pool requires a lot of natural gas to heat, so using this will incur a daily fee of $100 (Plus Tax). This will be billed prior to your arrival if you request it. Our pool cleaner comes every Tuesday and Friday around 11am; they come and go through the side gate and will not worry you throughout your stay. ☆ Desert living: This home, like many in Palm Springs, is located in the desert, so it's natural for sand to be around. On windy days, some sand and leaves may blow into the pool. While our pool cleaners do their best to keep it clear, there may occasionally be some debris in the water. We provide skimmers for your convenience if you'd like to remove any leaves or sand yourself. ☆ Bachelorette Parties: Given the design of our home, it is a popular choice for bachelorette celebrations. In collaboration with West Coast Bach, we provide enhanced services such as balloon arches, photo backdrops, marquee letters, bubbly/tequila bars, fridge stocking, charcuterie boards, and even cabana boy services. Our goal is to streamline your preparations and create a dreamy setup for your event. If you're booking for a bachelorette party and require assistance with these services, please inform us upon booking! Palm Springs City ID #068626 .
