Hola! Welcome to the dream home Frida Kahlo herself would have imagined. Built in 1960, Paloma House is a genuine Meiselman classic that has been reinterpreted with all the whimsical color, vibrant energy & artistic flair that legendary artist Frida Kahlo was famous for.
With brand new bathrooms, kitchen & pool/spa, its recent total makeover gives you all the modern comforts you need, w/ a glam modernist style you’ll love, inspired by the cosmopolitan color of Mexico City. PS #4465
This popular Palm Springs home may have a new owner, but Host With The Most continues to offer first class service during your stay at this highly rated vacation rental. Check out the photo section for some previous reviews.
Park in the circular driveway out front and enter the Paloma House to discover a groovy and glam lounge room complete with a luxurious retro-styled sea green velvet lounge setting, large TV, and record player along with a selection of albums to get you feeling the 60’s vibe. Further along is the dining room - with its eclectic gold foil bamboo wallpaper - where you can sit down and feast, enjoying access to the fully equipped kitchen on one side and fabulous pool views and access on the other. The kitchen features a built-in ice-maker with a 50lb. capacity so your frozen cocktails by the pool will be plentiful.
Take a journey through each room of the house, and you’ll discover a colorful collection of wallpapers that deliver a glam Palm Springs style, complimented perfectly by wall art consistent with the period.
The creature comforts of the stylish interiors give way to the magnificent outdoor facilities, including a private heated (if requested) pool and huge 8-seater spa. There’s also a dining table for al fresco enjoyment, abundant sun lounges to work on that tan, and cute yellow and white striped pool umbrellas for shade.
Head around the corner and there’s more fiesta fun to take in with a firepit complete with bright yellow rocks, 8 colored chairs and mountain views. And you can let the games begin with an oversized chess set, full bocce ball court and bonus putting green.
The Paloma House was originally created by celebrated builder Jack Meiselman, who was responsible for building a number of midcentury modern homes in the Palm Springs area during the 1950s and 1960s.
