For the truly Hollywood-obsessed, few places offer legal proximity to the stars like Time & Place Homes.

Time & Place is the short-term rental agent for some of Palm Springs’ array of architecturally iconic homes, including the former desert abodes of Frank Sinatra (with its piano-shaped pool) and various other film royalty, past and present.

Visit Ol’ Blue Eyes

One of the most popular places to lay your star-struck head and listen for ghosts of martini parties past is Sinatra’s Twin Palms Estate.

At around 4,000 square feet, the city’s celeb pads are veritable hotels on their own, often able to accommodate up to a dozen guests (usually for a three-night minimum), while serving up private concierge service for everything from private chefs to licensed babysitters.

Chosen by Time & Place for their “historical or architectural significance,” the homes have been renovated in keeping with their original décor and tastefully pimped out with Sub-Zero and Wolf kitchens, Frette and Mascioni linens and French antiques.

Best Bets

If you seek room for both the kids and solitude, the Hacienda Las Palmas features the most square feet, while Sand Acre has the most private land.

Rentals from Time & Place Homes start from US$1,350 per night (sleeps up to 12 people).
