Mesa Mid-Century - Walk to South Palm Springs!

Mid-Century charm and great location

"The Mesa Mid-Century house has a spacious 2-bedroom layout that is comfortably furnished, tastefully decorated and well maintained. The property is conveniently located in a quiet neighborhood that is just a short drive from downtown, the airport and Cathedral City.

Typical of Acme-managed properties, the house and grounds are clean and well maintained. The king-sized beds are very comfortable with fresh clean bedding and the bathrooms are adequately stocked with clean fluffy towels. The kitchen/dining amenities are of typical rental-property quality, are in good condition but more suitable for guests who prefer to dine out most nights.

The backyard, pool and spa area is designed well for entertaining and recreation with generous seating/lounging options and a tranquil view of the mountains. Control of the spa temperature setting should be better defined in the house manual or preset/checked by management prior to guest arrival.

Overall we enjoyed our 5-day vacation at this property. However there is a design detail of the house that we found functionally cumbersome and therefore tedious throughout our stay. The large shallow ultra-modern sinks in both bathrooms, although perhaps visually appealing to somebody, are awkward to use and messy and left very little useable counter space. Also the faucet controls were difficult to turn and had no texture or handle to grip, especially with wet hands. "

Relaxing and fun getaway!

"“If your looking for a clean, comfortable, relaxing stay look no further! Great communication every step of the way. The location was perfect, from local friendly neighbors to great food options only minutes away. The pool/spa and big back yard was extremely relaxing.”"

Palm Springs mid-century.

"Very professional, easy process all around. Great company!"

i love acme but this house wasn't guest ready!

"i have been using acme for years now, the backyard including all furniture and pool was very dirty and dusty, i have sent a private email with the complaint and got no response, i am loyal acme customer and was very dissatisfied this time!! "

A very nice place

"Like advertised, very well furnished, clean.
Acme is very reactive. As a summary we have some very good time at this place."

Relaxing Getaway

"We enjoyed our stay at the Mesa Mid Century property. The home is clean, nicely furnished and equipped to ensure you have everything you need to give you that home away from home feeling. The lovely and serene color palette in both the interior and exterior create a relaxed vibe and the pool is a great place to escape the relentless heat both night and day.

In previous reviews, renters complained about the size of the refrigerator, but the owners obvously have addressed this concern by replacing the fridge with a full size model. I do concur that the master bath sinks are challenging to use. Once your hands are wet, it's impossible to turn the faucets on or off so you have to dry your hands before turning the water off (wasteful IMHO). We could not figure out how to turn on the waterfall feature or Netflix, but it wasnt a priority, so we didn't pursue with ACME.

I would have rated the property five stars, but the overly rigid Palm Springs noise ordinance put a damper on our enjoyment of the outdoor spaces. My husband and I like to listen to NON amplified music from our iPad or phone while we swim, sit in the jacuzzi, sun or enjoy wine and a meal by the fire pit. However, you can not have music outside, at all, period. The financial penalties are steep and renters can be evicted. As a homeowner myself, I appreciate not wanting your neighborhood occupied by loud, partying, inconsiderate renters, but this ordinance is extreme and reduces the rental value of these properties.

The folks at Acme were great to work with and I do appreciate the homeowners for making their lovely property available to renters! All the best."

Perfect property!

"When I see perfect pictures of a house in a rental listing, I book it, then worry the actual experience won't live up to the pictures. Not the case with this one! It's exactly as advertised! A beautiful, clean house with immaculate grounds - just around the corner from the main streets of Palm Springs. It was a perfect stay."

Mesa Mid-Century perfection!

"Really loved the home and everything about it! Exceeded expectations in every way including location, cleanliness, design, amenities, furnishings, and view. More importantly, the Acme Team are a dream work with. They were responsive, friendly and attentive at all times. We had some noise from the venue behind the home and Acme were quick to apologize offering a gift certificate to one of Palms Springs best restaurants - nice touch! We will definitely return to this home, but for a much lengthier visit. This home was hard to leave! "

A Great Getaway

"We loved our stay at Mesa Mid-Century. House was immaculate, comfortably furnished, well-equipped kitchen. Yard is gorgeous and private. Pool was warm and jacuzzi heated quickly and efficiently. Location is excellent, too. We spent a day in the Indian Canyons and a day in Palm Desert, both easily accessed. Evenings were in Palm Springs, plenty of places to choose from. All in all, a great getaway for two old college buddies to reconnect and recreate. Concierge service was a nice touch too. We enjoyed massages in the house with Topher (excellent touch)."

Never disappoints!

"House was exactly as pictured, no surprises with the condition. Excellent style and comfort! Thank you! (manager note)"

Manager Response: The complete disconnect between the information in the app and the actual information. Everything from the entry instructions to the check out instructions were completely different. Most confusing and completely inexplicable. I don't even know if we checked out correctly since there were two different sets of instructions and then I couldn't find the original ones on the app as they seem to have vanished by the end of our stay. Get it together with the app issues. You have a nice app but then we were told to disregard the instructions? Why do such a thing. Also, we had to chase down the second of the two concierges we were given. They were supposed to call us ahead of time not have us finally reach out to them. All instructions were constantly contradicted. ????

A wonderful stay!

"The house was wonderful. Very good style and cleanliness, and excellent comfort. An overall excellent stay. (manager note)"

Manager Response: Your app, concierge service, house book onsite and emails were contradictory throughout the entire process. We made it work but please don't ask your clients to download and use the app if it isn't going to be updated. It was confusing and needn't have been.

Excellent in Every Way!

"Excellent stay from start to finish! Excellent style, comfort, and cleanliness!"

Attractive & Stylish!

"Attractiveness of the listing and that it was in our preferred area of Palm Springs made us pick this property! The pool and back yard were both terrific! Really liked the responsiveness of ACME House Co. team when we needed assistance, the services from Acme were excellent from start to finish. "

A Great Stay!

"House was as advertised. If we had an issue, ACME House Co. responded very quickly. This house was in a safe area of Palm Springs. The yard was awesome. Public transportation was easy to find. The kitchen was well stocked. "

A Good Find!

"ACME House Co. has a lot of great houses in Palm Springs, and are easier to deal with than Airbnb. The service is great, and the houses are very nice, especially the pool. I like dealing with an agency where I can talk to someone if there is a problem. The pool was great. Acme also took care of any problems we encountered quickly. "

Everything is so well done!

"Exceptional service, always in touch through the app. Great communication, and deal very quickly with any issue that may arise. ACME House Co. is so good to deal with and trustworthy. The house is exactly as advertised. No surprises just the way I like it. "

Can't wait to return!

"Wonderful property with all the amenities you will need on vacation. Great house, outdoor area, and pool. We loved how easy, and well everything went for a last minute get away. We look forward to our next visit! "

An Excellent Stay!

"Beautiful homes, easy to rent and a very helpful staff. The best part was, everything! The biggest surprise was how clean the house was! "

Better than a hotel!

"The home was nice, the staff on the phone and on-site visits was friendly and professional. Loved ACME House Co.'s property selections! Really loved feeling right at home, as opposed to being in a hotel. Really surprised with the Palm Springs HEAT!!! Overall, we enjoyed our stay very much. (manager note)"

Manager Response: I know May 31 is the end of the season, but there were some aspects of the house that were not clean or working properly (i.e. the living room carpet was dirty, the light bulb was out in master bath, the igniter on the BBQ did not work). At the price charged, everything should be absolutely spotless and working. When we arrived, we found a note from person who prepared the house for our arrival, saying they had found that the pool was dirty, and that someone would be sent out to clean it. The pool was never cleaned during our stay. Also, the media remote (Harmony) was so complicated, we needed a tech person to come out and fix it. I'd recommend simplifying tech controls. Mesa Mid-Century would benefit from having a clothes washer and dryer.

Loved the Modern Style!

"Great house and wonderful experience working with Acme House Company. Using the Acme App made everything about the rental easy. I liked the look of the house, and the location. Really liked how clean and well maintained the house and yard were. Overall excellent experience! "

Pure Enjoyment!

"Really enjoyed this house! No surprises except that I was surprised that I enjoyed Palm Springs so much! Excellent arrival and cleanliness of the property. We found the style and comfort very good! "

Just as happy the second time around!

"ACME House Co. is extremely responsive, and do a great job representing a wide range of fantastic properties. If I had a house in Palm Springs, I wouldn't hesitate to have Acme manage it! I rented with Acme last year and was impressed with the house and with the people I worked with during the rental process, and for the 2nd year in a row, the pictures of the property were extremely accurate. The house was beautiful and in a fantastic location. (manager note)"

Privacy was the key!

"ACME House Co. is an easy to use company with great properties available. We loved the MCM style, proximity to downtown, the pool and spa, and the lovely neighborhood. We liked having the two bedrooms and the ice machine was a fantastic bonus! The house is lovely, well situated and very private. We really enjoyed our stay, and would book the property again without question. Having the ice machine was fantastic but it's also so loud that during the night it would wake us up thinking someone had broken into the home. Other than that, the house is lovely, well situated and very private. We really enjoyed our stay and would book the property again without question. "

Another Excellent Stay at an ACME House Property!

" I've rented with Acme for at least 5 years, and have always found them to be reliable in planning, quick in response to any issues, and always offer high quality houses. For that reason alone, I see no reason to change! The best part of the property was the outdoor accommodations, and the biggest surprise was the lovely master bedroom suite. Really found everything to be excellent! "

Beautiful house, rave reviews!

"Loved the house, the yard, the pool, and the location. This house would be PERFECT if the master bath sinks were different. ACME House Co. was very responsive to a few minor issues we had, and corrected them quickly. Thanks for a great stay!"

Can't Wait To Come Back!

"Mesa Mid-Century was a great experience! We certainly will come back again! It had all the items we needed for a great stay. We were very comfortable! We loved the neighborhood! "

You will be in good hands with Acme!

"We had a smooth arrival and good response from ACME House Co. when needed. Excellent style, good cleanliness and comfort. Overall good stay. Ice maker was loud but worked good!"

Manager Response: Thanks Michael. We strive to provide great guest experiences. Feedback like this is essential. Thanks for bringing up the ice maker. The owners have had it replaced.

A Great Ambiance!

"We chose this property for the style and availability. ACME House Co. made the entire renting process convenient offering an app with very handy instructions to make reservations, sign contacts, etc. We loved that they were flexible with our check-in, allowing us to check into the home 1.5 hours early as it was clean, and our flight was early. Acme was very accessible by either phone, or email, responding quickly. The best part was relaxing by the pool, and we loved the backyard areas which were awesome! The atmosphere of the house and yard created a great ambiance. We did have a couple of minor issues, the Ice maker had to be adjusted as it was way too loud and woke us up at night; the air conditioner wouldn't stay on to what we programmed it, but was ok; and the sink in the master bedroom was difficult to maneuver around, but that's just the chosen style. Overall an awesome place, and we WILL DEFINITELY BE RETURNING! "

In a word, Excellent!

"The house looked like the great pictures on the website! The best part of the rental was the privacy, and cleanliness of the house. Excellent from the rental experience, to meeting our overall expectations!"

Mid Century Excellence!

"Good management and pricing. Good communication. I found the house on another site, but by dealing directly with ACME House Co., we were able to take advantage of a discount. The best part was the pool, spa and fire pit. We were a bit surprised one room was much smaller than the other, and also, the grill could be in better shape. An overall excellent stay!"

Manager Response: Thank you for your review and for letting us know that their was an issue with one of the toilets running. We will have our Property Care Team make the necessary repairs!

The house was very welcoming!

"The check-in, and check-out were seamless. The air conditioning and music were on when we arrived. The house was well-equipped and had all the amenities we have come to expect, but seldom have received at other rentals. The quality of the rental, especially relative to the price was why we chose this property. All of the details were met, including paper towels, toiletries, towels and linens. The kitchen was well equipped,too! Very good overall!"

Excellent in every way!

"Excellent Comfort! Excellent Style! Met all of my expectations!"

Manager Response: That's what we like to hear. Thank you Lacey. You were the perfect guest.

Amazing property!

"Liked how easy it was to make reservations and check-in and checkout. LOVE the app! Extremely well managed and easy to reserve. The house looked the best for the price range, and the advertising actually matched the property. Wonderful vacation! "

Would recommend to friends!

"ACME House Co. has nice properties and very good customer service. We have stayed at Acme properties in the past. The backyard of the Mesa MidCentury house, including the pool area was great. I called and requested a 2nd umbrella which Marvin sent over right away, truly though, that property should have 3 or 4 umbrellas by the pool area. Liked the house, but wouldn't rent it again because of style difference with the bathroom sinks and the closeness of the bedrooms to each other. Would recommend to friends!"

Far Exceeded our Expectations!

"The whole experience was great. The ACME House Co. staff was always helpful and professional. The house we stayed in far exceeded our expectations. The pictures really helped with descriptions of the property. This was the first time we stayed in a vacation rental vs a hotel and were extremely impressed. The home far exceeded our expections from the style, yard, and comfort, and we also really enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen and the awesome ice maker. We will be longtime customers of ACME and are looking forward to staying in the Mesa Mid Century again in the future! "

Loved the Modern Style!

"Super pool in the garden, with a spa. Very quiet and large outdoor area. Liked the location near the Palm Springs Down Town area. First time renting an American home!"

The best week of our lives!

"We were more than impressed with the home itself and the grounds. Photos did not exaggerate the beautiful style of the home or backyard. The home is immaculate, stylish, and comfortable. We did not want to leave the home or backyard our entire stay. The design inside the home to the palm tree surrounded pool...we could not have been more impressed! If back in Palm Springs we will definitely stay at Mesa Midcentury again. Great location!"

Loved the orange tree!

"We chose this rental because we were looking for an updated midcentury style home. The best thing about this property is definitely the backyard, which we enjoyed very much. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed, and we enjoyed oranges from the tree. "

February 2015 Stay

"Perfect location, perfect size, perfect setting! From arrival till departure the house exceeded our expectations. We hope to stay at this location on our next visit to Palm Springs."

Beautiful Yard!

"Well looked after. The pool, hot tub, and yard. Beautiful yard! Surprised by the gas fireplace outside.Yes. I would recommend an Acme House Co. stay to family and friends."

I Will Be Back!

"The layout of the house is fantastic. Very open and comfortable. The pool is perfect and the misters were a nice touch for sitting outside on a hot day. I was surprised by how comfortable the house was. It felt like it was my home and super relaxing. I will be back. Next time we are going to do it with our families."

Beautiful grounds and excellent location!

"Lovely grounds with beautiful mountain views and hot tub. No surprises...which was wonderful. Pictures / description were on the mark. Overall a great experience. Nice set up, beautiful grounds and excellent location. "

Professional, detail-oriented service, and stunning properties!

"Best part of the experience was Interactions during reservation process and the beautiful property! It was an absolutely efficient, secure check in. Upon arrival, we could see everything was checked. AC was running, music was playing, the house just said "welcome!" Keep up the good work! We are glad to know of a reputable and friendly management company for our future Palm Springs vacations. "
