About This Home

Live Like a Legend at Frank Sinatra's Villa Maggio A Rare Guest Suite Opportunity. Now available for lease: a private studio suite within the iconic Villa Maggio. Frank Sinatra's legendary hilltop retreat nestled high above Palm Desert. This is your exclusive opportunity to live within a preserved piece of American cultural history. Built in 1970 and named after Sinatra's Oscar-winning role in From Here to Eternity, Villa Maggio was created as a secluded sanctuary where the legendary crooner could escape the spotlight. Perched at a 4,300-foot elevation on a private 7.5-acre estate, the home offers a rare blend of historic character, dramatic design, and natural serenity. This private studio suite, located in the estate's self-sufficient guest home, once hosted Sinatra's inner circle: including Sammy Davis Jr., Dean Martin, Joey Bishop, Peter Lawford, as well as Hollywood icons, political dignitaries, and sports legends. Today, it remains a tranquil and luxurious retreat with a timeless vibe. Suite Features: High ceilings and expansive volume, a rustic stone fireplace that anchors the space in warmth and character, a wet bar ideal for entertaining or evening relaxation, and two separate bathrooms for added privacy and comfort. Included with Rent: Full access to the estate's resort-style swimming pool, a private oasis surrounded by nature. Use of the lighted tennis court, where Sinatra and friends once competed under the stars. Surrounded by stunning 360-degree natural vistas, the estate offers panoramic high desert views of mountain ranges, national monuments, and sweeping desert landscapes. This breathtaking environment invites deep tranquility, a rare sense of peace, and an extraordinary connection to nature. Best of all, Villa Maggio's unique elevation means year-round mild weather, typically 1520 degrees cooler than the lower Coachella Valleymaking it the perfect escape from the summer heat of Palm Desert while still being just 20 minutes away from the luxury shops and fine dining of El Paseo. Whether you're seeking inspiration, solitude, or a soulful connection to one of America's most iconic entertainers, this is more than a lease, it's an invitation to live the legend. Villa Maggio: Where history meets harmony. Welcome home! There are 2 side by side guest units for rent (Suite A and Suite B) available.
