Palm Springs truly is an oasis in the desert, a paradise for luxury, and a top destination in California to treat yourself to something special. With warm winter days and super-hot summer weather, it’s pretty much essential to have access to a pool when you’re staying here since the ocean is still a couple of hours away. To help you plan your next desert getaway in California, here are the best Palm Springs Airbnb rentals with pools.

In addition to the pool, there’s a private hot tub, full kitchen, laundry machines, and Wi-Fi.
