The Ricardo! Mid-century villa + saltwater pool + 5 minutes from downtown PS
The Ricardo mid-century modern vacation rental was once owned by a close friend of Lucille Ball and was Lucy's Palm Springs hideaway. Located near the once popular El Mirador hotel, The Ricardo is a 5-minute drive to downtown Palm Springs. With tall green hedges, amazing mountain views, and zero traffic noise, you can see why Lucy felt a strong sense of privacy and relaxation during her time at the property.
PLEASE NOTE that a city-required 12.5% occupancy tax on the nightly rate will be added to the reservation by VRBO payment request after booking. VRBO does not currently allow the tax to be added to a line item so this will be in addition to the total shown.
We had a such a great stay. The home was incredibly clean and decorated beautifully. We had our 1.5 year old with us so we chose this home so there would be plenty to do while he napped and after he went to bed - we were not disappointed! Highly recommend.
We enjoyed our stay so much! The house was amazing and decorated so cute. The house was also well equipped everything we needed and more. Thank you to the wonderful hosts! We canât wait to return
The house was accurately described, clean and very local to downtown Palm Springs. Communication was easy and fast with our host. Very family friendly, had a lot of amenities within the property and kept my 1 year old entertained during the entire weekend! We will definitely be back to the Ricardo in the near future!
We had the most fun at The Ricardo. Every single thing was perfect from the jasmine outside the kitchen, to the little vignettes all around the property, to the games, to the AMAZINGLY comfortable beds. The main feature of saltwater pool area gave us the best Saturday weâve shared in a long time. They thought of everything and we instantly began talking about when we could all return. Highly, highly recommend to everyone!
We had a wonderful time at The Ricardo! We loved hanging by the pool during our hot July stay. We enjoyed using the BBQ and well appointed kitchen for many of our meals. The home is super clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay!
