Summary: This house is perfect for large groups! We had 10 people and the space was perfect and had enough bedrooms and bathrooms that nobody felt cramped.The outdoor and pool areas are to die for and we loved lounging around the pool during the day, and walking into town at night for dinner. We were concerned about the Palm Springs noise ordinance, but didn't run into any issues with it and as long as you follow the rules, you shouldn't either.David was a great point of contact for the check in process and it was amazing that we were allowed to check in at 10am instead of the usual 4pm.We'd definitely stay here again!
