Private estate where indoor elegance flows effortlessly into resort-style living

VILLA BUTERA

Welcome to Villa Butera, a private, gated Palm Springs estate where sophisticated design and effortless indoor-outdoor living come together.

Located in the coveted Historic Movie Colony, this beautifully appointed retreat is just minutes from downtown, yet feels like a secluded private resort.

THE EXPERIENCE

Designed by renowned interior designer Barclay Butera, Villa Butera blends timeless Spanish-inspired architecture with fresh, sophisticated interiors and playful details. French doors and thoughtfully designed living spaces create an easy connection between the home and its lush outdoor surroundings.

The heart of the property is the spectacular outdoor oasis. Spend the day beside the lagoon-style pool and spa, relax beneath the mountain views, gather around the waterfall, or enjoy cocktails and conversation around the fire pit as the desert sky comes alive.

For effortless outdoor entertaining, the villa offers an outdoor kitchen, grill, bar seating, and elegant dining and lounging areas. Multiple furnished patios create private places to relax throughout the day.

THE HOME

Villa Butera offers four beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with its own ensuite bathroom. Three bedrooms feature king beds and the fourth offers a queen bed. Several suites open directly to private furnished patios, giving guests both shared spaces for gathering and private spaces for quiet relaxation.

The spacious interior includes a formal living room, dining room, breakfast area, family room, and a chef’s kitchen with high-end appliances—providing plenty of room to cook, dine, relax, and entertain.

THE PERFECT GROUP GETAWAY

The thoughtful layout makes Villa Butera especially well suited to couples traveling together, friends' getaways, and family vacations. Everyone can gather together around the pool or outdoor dining table, while each bedroom suite provides a private retreat.

LOCATION

Set in Palm Springs’ Historic Movie Colony, Villa Butera offers the best of both worlds: the privacy and tranquility of a gated estate with convenient access to downtown restaurants, shopping, galleries, nightlife, and the best of Palm Springs.

Come for the design. Stay for the pool. Remember the experience.

David met us when we arrived to show us this beautiful home. He made us feel very welcome. The home had everything we needed for our wonderful 10 day stay. Comfortable beds and bedding. First class comfort. Home was well stocked with everything. This is at the top of the list for places we have stayed before. We loved all the different patio’s and the pool and hot tub were perfect for relaxing after a days shopping and sightseeing. The interior of the home was as breathtaking as a magazine but also very comfortable! Loved our time here!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our month-long stay at Villa Butera! In my opinion, the best part of the home is the layout with public spaces allowing for entertaining and private spaces with each bedroom having an en-suite bath and personal patio. Each of our guests commented on how perfect this was! David, the property manager, was a delight - he provided us with exceptional service; great communication; and accommodated our every need. We spent many days outside by/in the pool and hot tub! We savored many dinners outside on the back patio. Ideal location for quick walks to downtown for shopping and dining and for picking up/dropping off at the airport. We love Palm Springs and Villa Butera is right up there!

Amazing property. The manager completely decorated for my husbands 50th birthday. Had some issues with the pool/hot tub. It don’t appear to be filtered. Water was stagnant and the hot tub was not turning on or getting warm. Was able to contact manager of the property. Pool service was done 2 days into our stay. After that, we were able to enjoy the pool/hot tub once it was serviced.

Barclay's place was AMAZING. Superb attention to detail, comfy furniture, super comfy beds, fabulous linens, pillows, and towels. Well-stocked kitchen, with plenty of dishes, wine glasses (thank you), and high quality pots and pans, serving dishes, knives, etc. Property was pristine and gorgeous. Pool and hot tub also clean and great temp. David and Barclay were super attentive! Oh and great location too. Everyone in our family loved the place and everything about it. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

A terrific property

We had a great stay. There was a minor hiccup at the beginning that the responsive property manager, David, handled adroitly. This is a rare instance where the photos (which are great by themselves) don't fully capture how comfortable and gracious the house is. I like to read, and there were 5 or 6 places where I could settle in and read comfortably and with more than adequate lighting. And the outdoor pool area is just wonderful. We hope to return.

The house was beautiful, the pool and hot tub were perfect. The kitchen surfaces were difficult to work on and the coffee maker was insufficient for the group of 7 of us. The bathroom faucets were worn out needed an upgrade. The bathroom shower heads need updated and drawers had mildew orders.Our biggest problem was the bedroom with the bunks, they were uncomfortable, the door to the patio had noSmaller towels would nice in the bathrooms knob so you couldn’t use it, there was a claustrophobic vibe, the the lighting was insufficient.! No one slept in there! The pods used for laundry make the linens smell like cheap perfume and the sheets could be nicerThe home could use a good house cleaning not just a maids work, windows, mirrors, oiled wood surfaces are all in need of attention It’s was a fantastic vacation and we would love to return

Amazing Dessert Oasis

Spent Christmas poolside at this Oasis. Family joined us for a few nights, and everyone had their own ensuites which are spread out perfect for extended family. The house had a fabulous layout and comfortable bedding. Loved the fireplaces and designer furnishings. The property manager was super friendly and accommodating and even offered to buy us a Christmas tree. The kitchen had high end appliances, but I struggled with the basic inventory of tools and serving dishes. (I had to go out a buy several things on Christmas Eve). This property has impeccable views and manicured landscape, the side yard was filled with mature citrus trees with succulent oranges and lemons. Overall, this is an amazing one-of-a-kind property, and we can't to go back.

Wonderful Property

We had an amazing time at Villa Butera. The grounds and the house are lovely, everything is well appointed. The beds and linens are super comfortable. You cannot go wrong with any of the rooms. We did have a few issues that were dealt with promptly. The 2 pieces of constructive feedback that I have about the property is that because it is so well appointed we did have to do a lot of juggling of moving things around to accommodate all of our items in the kitchen and common areas. The pool is lovely and has a wonderful waterfall feature. Unfortunately, that feature is only on for a couple of hours between 3:30 and 5:30. All of us wished that it could be on during the day when we were actually using the pool. Other than that, all of the guests had a great time and enjoyed the amenities of Villa Butera.
