Welcome to Desert Dunes, an absolutely extraordinary 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom Palm Springs estate that truly has it all. Nestled in the prestigious Tahquitz River Estates neighborhood — just steps from the Sunny Dunes district, Warm Sands neighborhood, and within walking distance of shops and restaurants along Sunrise Way — this gated, private compound delivers a resort experience unlike anything else in the desert. With a lazy river, water slide, swim-up bar, two grotto seating areas, a detached dry sauna casita, a game room, putting green, outdoor kitchen, and so much more, Desert Dunes redefines what a Palm Springs vacation can be for up to 8 guests.
Outdoor Living Space
The backyard at Desert Dunes is simply unlike anything else. This is not just a pool — it is a full resort water experience, featuring a lazy river, a thrilling water slide built into the rocks, a swim-up bar with seats in the water, and two grotto seating areas that invite you to linger for hours. One grotto hides a private spa tucked behind a dramatic waterfall — an absolute showstopper. A sand beach adds a tropical touch that makes the whole setting feel like a private island escape. The outdoor kitchen with a gas grill, a covered patio living room with a fireplace, and an outdoor dining table create the perfect alfresco entertaining setup, while the detached casita across the pool bridge also houses a private dry sauna — the ultimate recovery retreat after a day in the desert sun. Out front, a putting green sits within the gated turnaround driveway, creating a completely private and self-contained arrival experience. An EV car charger is also available for guests, and driveway parking ensures convenience throughout your stay.
Indoor Living Space
Step inside and discover a home that is as impressively appointed indoors as it is out. The main living spaces are open, stylish, and thoughtfully designed for comfortable group living. The game room is packed with entertainment — including a universal workout station and washer/dryer access — making Desert Dunes as practical as it is fun. A dedicated media room adjacent to the fourth bedroom creates an incredible entertainment zone for movie nights or game days. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything needed for a memorable group meal, and the living areas flow seamlessly throughout the home. High-speed WiFi and central air conditioning ensure every comfort is covered throughout your stay.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms
Desert Dunes sleeps up to 8 guests across four beautifully appointed bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms — each thoughtfully positioned for privacy and comfort. The primary bedroom is a luxurious retreat with its own private ensuite bathroom. Connected directly to the main house, the attached casita offers its own ensuite bathroom and private access from the pool deck — ideal for guests who want a little extra independence. Across the pool bridge, the detached casita is a true sanctuary unto itself, featuring its own ensuite bathroom and private entrance, as well as the home's dry sauna in the same building. The fourth bedroom is located on the east end of the home past the kitchen, connected to the media room and game room, and is served by a pool bathroom with a shower located just outside on the pool deck. A powder room just off the front living room rounds out the home's 4.5 bathrooms in total.
