Rooted in the Desert

Local hosts, beautiful homes, and the kind of care that shows.

About Cohost of the Desert

Cohost of the Desert is a locally rooted vacation rental management company serving the Greater Palm Springs area, from Palm Springs and Cathedral City to La Quinta, Indio, Coachella, Desert Hot Springs, Bermuda Dunes, and Thousand Palms.

We care for a curated collection of homes across the Coachella Valley, each chosen for its design, comfort, and sense of place. Mid-Century Modern, Spanish, and Boho influences run throughout the portfolio, with private pools, spas, mountain views, and quiet outdoor spaces built for slowing down.

What sets us apart is simple: we actually live here. Our team brings a hands-on, hospitality-first approach to every stay and every property we manage. Guests get responsive support, thoughtful touches, and real local recommendations. Owners get a trusted local partner who treats their home like our own.

Whether you are planning your next desert escape or looking for a co-host who knows this market inside and out, we would love to welcome you.
