Revitalized Resort-style Villa
A landmark Palm Springs compound reimagined as a private, resort-style retreat. Fully gated and designed for elevated group stays, the property unfolds across seven individual guest units arranged around a central pool courtyard. Bluestone pathways connect private suites to a collection of shared spaces including a commercial kitchen with outdoor bar, indoor Tiki lounge, gym and sauna, and expansive outdoor dining and lounge areas, all framed by mature palms, mountain views, and curated desert landscaping. Each guest suite operates as a self-contained retreat, offering its own living room, dining area, vintage kitchen (sink, fridge, microwave only), and private courtyard with seating and hammocks. The layout is intentionally designed to balance privacy with connection, creating a setting that feels both intimate and communal, ideal for gatherings, celebrations, and multi-family stays. Originally built in 1956 and later used by Max Factor as his Palm Springs family retreat, The Fontenell was thoughtfully restored and expanded in a comprehensive 2025 renovation led by a renowned design team including Gia Wolff. The project honored the property’s original midcentury spirit while introducing modern amenities, new additions, and a refined landscape, elevating the compound into a true Palm Springs icon for the present era.
