Three destinations · One local team
Choose your
desert.
Pool days and mountain light. Resort-town ease. Boulders, wide sky, and real quiet. Start with the stay that sounds like your weekend.
Palm Springs · Coachella Valley · Joshua Tree & High Desert
Three different stays
The desert changes as you move through it.
Palm Springs is made for pool days and downtown evenings. Down valley moves at a slower pace around golf, tennis, and bigger spaces. The High Desert trades walkability for boulders, stars, and real quiet.
A better way to choose
Start with the place. We’ll help with the rest.
Every Acme home is managed by our local team from Palm Springs, so you can ask a real question about a real house before you reserve it. The aim is simple: help you choose a place that feels right before you arrive.
If you already know your dates, search now. If you are deciding between destinations, start with the short guides below and come back to the homes when the plan takes shape.
