Welcome to Biskra, an AvantStay home!

The beauty of the desert and mountains collide at this sunny, spacious, and secluded mid-century gem. Designed by local legend Hugh Kaptur, it embodies classic Palm Springs chic. Biskra has three artfully decorated bedrooms, a sparkling custom year-round swimming pool, and all the amenities you’d want from a home. Make this yours for a few nights and you’ll wish you could stay forever.

Before you even pull up the driveway and into one of the spots in Biskra’s garage, you’re already charmed by the house. For one, there’s the view: a clear blue sky shining radiantly over the San Jacinto Mountains. Then there’s the xeriscaped front lawn with its desert foliage and immense palm trees thriving in the heat. And, finally, there are the geometric details on the facade that make you feel like you’re stepping back in time to the 1950s and 60s (but with stronger WiFi).

Inside is just as lovely. The front is open concept, adorned with modern comforts and timeless finishes. It’s clear this place has been remodeled recently, but with care and consideration of its historic nature. From this space you’re already drawn to the backyard, from which the swimming pool calls your name. Put your bags down first in one of the bedrooms. Whichever one you get is fine; they all have ample closet space for your luggage and beds you’ll cozy up into when the sun goes down.

Change into your suit, grab a cocktail from the kitchen, slide open the glass doors and take it in. Kaptur designed this pool area to be an oasis fit for the best in the business. The gorgeous view from the outside opens up even more, with a garden area and the custom-built pool that glistens in the sunshine. Dive in and stay outside the rest of the day. What could be better than that?

With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more.

Good house but lots of airplane noise

House was great and comfortable and clean. Backyard was nice but pool was cold (late March). House was directly under airport takeoff path so planes taking off every 5-10 minutes. This should be disclosed in my opinion and made hanging out in the backyard less pleasant.

Perfect getaway

The property was as described with a beautiful yard and pool, complete with all the amenities for a serene weekend away from the city. The house is well decorated and a lot of the kitchen utensils were brand new and I was thankful for the extra toiletry items left at our disposal. My husband and I had a great time relaxing in the pool and outdoor patio along with our fur babies. The property management group was always responsive and made it an easy process altogether. I will definitely return!

It’s a great place for a family

We arrived and the house was easy to access. The only thing we forgot to ask was the pool. I thought it would be heated it was sticker shock. When we were told it was $150. Per day to heat. Next time I will not forget to ask !’n
