Monthly Vacation Rentals in Palm Springs: An Overview

Monthly Rentals in Palm Springs

An Overview of the Palm Springs Monthly Market

Palm Springs presents unique challenges and opportunities compared to our Los Angeles market. With scorching summer heat intensifying yearly, demand patterns in the desert differ significantly from coastal California.

At Open Air Homes, we aim to provide clear, honest guidance below on navigating monthly rentals effectively in the Palm Springs area.


Do Monthly Rentals make sense for you in Palm Springs?

Seasonal Demand Patterns in Palm Springs

Optimize Your Rental Strategy Year-Round

Peak Season (October–May)

  • Highest occupancy: Driven by snowbirds, remote workers, and vacationers seeking a warm retreat.
  • Ideal pricing: Premium rates and strong occupancy.

Off-Peak Season (June–September)

  • Low demand: Extreme summer heat significantly reduces occupancy.
  • Strategic pricing: Deep discounts (40–60%) are often required to attract summer renters, making monthly rentals more challenging.

Post-COVID Market Dynamics

Navigating Supply & Demand for Monthly Rentals in Palm Springs

Since the pandemic, Palm Springs has seen a surge in rental properties, creating an oversupply—particularly challenging in the hotter summer months. This increased competition impacts properties limited to monthly rentals.

Key Takeaways:

  • High competition: Post-pandemic property supply now outpaces summer demand.
  • HOA restrictions: Properties restricted to monthly stays face tougher challenges during off-peak seasons.

Our local team helps you navigate these market dynamics, ensuring strategic solutions for your property’s success.

Honest Guidance & Realistic Expectations

Clear Communication Every Step of the Way

Transparency is key at Open Air Homes.

Unlike Los Angeles, Palm Springs has a seasonal, nuanced monthly rental market. We openly discuss these differences, helping you set realistic expectations to ensure your property achieves optimal performance throughout the year.

Bottom line: Monthly Rentals in Palm Springs are more seasonal than short-term rentals. The market and sites like Airbnb, Zillow, Redfin, Google Travel, and Booking is oversaturated in the summer months with monthly rentals widely available, and you need to be prepared for your home to stay vacant in those months.
