Welcome to Hacienda Vaquero! Originally built as a contemporary Spanish, the house has been 100% rebuilt over the course of 2 years by the renowned LA firm Saxony Design Build. It is now a rustic Spanish Colonial desert Hacienda, inspired by the finest luxury Haciendas & boutique hotels we have visited throughout Mexico and South America. Pristinely located in the center of Palm Springs, the interior of the house has soaring ceilings highlighted by knotty beams, rustic mahogany doors, wrought iron hardware, antique European wood flooring, a fully-equipped gourmet kitchen with Thermador appliances, custom made and antique furnishings, and mesmerizing tiled bathrooms done in a variety of handmade tiles from Mexico. The entire home is configured with a Sonos sound system, which you can control wirelessly through your phone/tablet. For those cool desert nights, there is a cozy fireplace in the great room and for those warm days the back of the house is filled with french doors leading to your own private oasis outside.
The yard consists of a salt-water swimming pool and en-caustic concrete tiled spa. There are multiple seating and lounging areas outdoors including dining for 14, a shaded outside living room with a huge antique daybed from Bali, a bistro table for 2, poolside chaises for 4, and relaxing loungers around a large firepit. All of this is surrounded by the breathtaking mountain views & California fan palms. Being a bit farther away from the mountain is key to the success of the outdoor spaces in the house; you get almost an extra hour of sunlight (and sunsets) during the day as compared to the homes close to downtown (and those huge mountains)!
The house sleeps 10 total; there are 4 bedrooms including the Casita. Booking the property includes the entire home with three bedrooms and the pull-out sleeper in the living room. The casita sleeps 2 and is completely private and separate from the main house with plenty of room for the air mattresses if so needed.
There is free wifi and all bedrooms have SAMSUNG SmartTV's. Each room has a variety of luxurious cotton linens. The smaller bedroom has two twin beds, the larger bedrooms all have king beds, the living room has a pull-out queen sleeper and all rooms have large closets. We also have 1 Twin Air Mattress and 1 Queen Air Mattress. There is an elegant round dining table that seats up to 9 for interior dining or game night. The breakfast bar in the kitchen seats 3 atop the striking marble countertops and handmade tile backsplash, and there is a high capacity washer and dryer inside the garage.
The attention to detail in this home is like no other available on the vacation rental market in Palm Springs; you will never stay anywhere else after a night in this spectacular space. It is filled with charm, character, and authentic touches from all over the world.
Home may be rented for special events such as photo shoots, birthday parties or weddings (under 40 guests total) for a fee of $5000, this fee is non negotiable and additional to your fee if renting the home for such events.

Stock up on local farm veggies/fruit or enjoy some great people watching. There's also the Palm Spring Vintage Market on the 1st Sunday of every month thats only a 10 minute walk from the house.

Absolutely loved our stay here. This property was amazing. The pool, spa, and yard were fantastic and made it the perfect place to relax with a drink and spend time together. The house truly felt like home—very comfortable and welcoming. The kitchen was fully stocked with every utensil and tool you could possibly need, which made cooking ant the property easy. Charley, the property manager, was incredibly welcoming and took the time to make sure we knew how to operate everything, which we really appreciated. It was a wonderful place to stay with friends I’ve known for decades, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!

Couldn’t have asked for a better host or VRBO. The kitchen and entire home is incredibly well equipped, comfortable and relaxing. The pictures are as good as the property. We loved the two true master bedrooms, great privacy and room for two families with kids. Well done!

Every room was custom appointed to support the hacienda style of the home. Add to that a private. custom heated pool and spa and you get the feel of true luxury, so much different than most of what is available on the rental market. Wonderful plush towels, linens and furniture round out the offerings. The host makes it clear that he is there to make sure everything is perfect, and it was. Will be back.

Beautiful and extremely comfortable
Even more beautiful in person, this house was a dream for our family vacation. The owner and property manager are super attentive and helpful. The house is stocked with everything you need- down to a blower to keep the outdoor furniture free of leaves. The beds and bedding are extremely comfortable and with the blackout curtains you get the best sleep. The design details are beautiful AND functional, well thought out. We hope to return soon!

This was hands down the best Vrbo experience I’ve ever had. I stayed at this beautiful property for my 30th and could not have been happier. Kevin and Charley made the process so easy. The house had everything we needed and what a great location. I cannot recommend this place enough!

Heaven!
We could easily live full-time at this property. The spaces are cozy and warm, and the design details are tasteful and creative, but nothing felt so precious that we couldn't relax and feel at home. The backyard is incredible, and we enjoyed drinking our morning coffee listening to the birds and admiring the towering cacti. We spent our evenings in the pool under the moon, followed by a soak in the hot tub. We lived around the kitchen island, cooking many meals and working on projects at the big round table. The bed was comfy, the water pressure strong, the location great...everything you want in a vacation rental!

Great house for our holiday family get together.
This property was perfect for all ages! Our youngest granddaughter is 4 1/2 yrs old and the oldest is 9. They loved the heated pool and the adults enjoyed the spa.
Great location, we did hikes in the mountains to walking downtown Palm Springs. We brought some bikes but saw they had them there. Note to self, don’t bring bikes next time. Another surprise was that we got to charge our Tesla without going to a charging station.
Kevin thought of everything! Thank you for making our holiday stay very special!

Hacienda Vaquero was an incredible home away from home. We travel a lot and this home was one of the best we've ever stayed in. The kitchen is well stocked. The appliances are top of the line. Plenty of towels. Our kids loved the pool/hot tub! The attention to detail was very impressive. Can't wait to stay here again!

Beyond Compare
Our family has made use of many VRBO properties over the last decade, but none compare to what we enjoyed at Hacienda Vaquero. Where to begin with our praise? The central location and beauty of the lushly landscaped yard and delightfully decorated home? Or perhaps the well outfitted kitchen and house layout perfect for our group of eight? Simple pleasures such as pool toys for the kids, unscented linens for allergy prone adults or the magical outdoor lighting to delight us all? A wonderful time in Palm Springs for our gang was truly enhanced by our Hacienda Vaquero experience. Thank you Charlie and Kevin.

This is a fantastic house for family visits to Palm Springs. We had 3 adults and 2 kids with more than enough space. This house is not your average rental - it has been very well cared for with great, thoughtful design. Very responsive property manager. The backyard and pool are beautiful and functional.

5-star experience & beautiful property
I cannot speak highly enough of Hacienda Vaquero! We had our micowedding here with a few family members and had the most amazing experience. The house is so well laid out that 7 of us had more than enough room to stay and feel like we had privacy, with plenty of spots to gather together (beautiful outdoor dining area, lounge chairs by the pool, firepit, etc.). Everything was immaculate. We stayed on property for the entire wedding day and the photographer had infinite shooting locations...every corner you turn is perfectly laid out and designed. It is somehow even better in person than in pictures. We cannot wait to come back here in the future!
