The Gorgeous Midcentury House:

This restored Midcentury Modern Krisel designed Palm Springs Vacation home was built by the celebrated Alexander Construction Co. in 1960. Located in famous Vista Las Palmas, it has spectacular mountain views, desert landscaping, a huge swimming pool and an in-ground spa. Inside you'll find the famous Palmer and Krisel open floor plan, perfect for entertaining with family and friends, vaulted tongue and groove ceilings, entire walls of glass doors opening onto the patio and pool area, and Mid-Century furnishings.

The Kitchen and the Living Area:

The spacious kitchen is fully equipped. Enjoy gorgeous mountain views out of the clerestory windows, which fill the room with light and showcase the mountain ridge-line. The kitchen and dining room are open to the expansive living room, with its walls of sliding glass doors that let the light pour in and reveal and lead to the private pool and beautiful outdoor living spaces.

Enjoy movies on the 65” Samsung QLED SMART flat screen TV with SONOS system and home theater surround sound. Free WiFi access is available from anywhere in the house and yard.

The Bedrooms and Bathrooms:

Each bedroom has a large Samsung QLED SMART flat screen TV, luxurious linens and mattress. Each bathroom has luxurious towels and individually wrapped soap and shampoo.

The Amazing Neighborhood and Street:

The neighborhood is a classic Mid-Century Modern area with every house looking authentic and ready for a photo shoot. Vista Las Palmas is the only neighborhood in Palm Springs without power lines blocking the view of the beautiful mountains and palm trees. In addition, this street is so close to the mountains you could feel its presence, which is great for meditation and yoga - or a SELFIE. Its proximity to the base of the San Jacinto Mountains keeps it sheltered from much of the wind and means a quicker escape from the late afternoon sun. NO AIRPLANE NOISE

The location is close (1 mile or a 20 minute walk) to wonderful restaurants, the Uptown Design District and Downtown Palm Springs. It is also close to hiking, golf, tennis and a quick drive to Palm Desert. Whether your ideal Palm Springs vacation includes sports, shopping or relaxing, this home is convenient to all of it. The house is located within walking distance to the Elvis Honeymoon house and the Kaufman Desert house.

Amazing in every way!
The home, the outdoor spaces, amenities, location, views and experience were top notch all the way! We have stayed many places in the area and this is the best. Already planning our return. A family, ranging in age from 6 to 82, all declared it a stellar family vacation!

Fantastic Experience!
We had a wonderful stay at this home located in the peaceful and scenic Vista Las Palmas neighborhood, conveniently close to downtown. The views of the San Jacinto mountains were stunning. The interior was beautifully decorated, impeccably clean and more than equipped with all the essentials. The expansive backyard with a pool and spa was a highlight, featuring multiple seating areas, a fireplace, BBQ, Bocce court and cornhole. Bob, the property manager, was exceptional— a pleasure to meet and work with. Communication with Steve, the owner, was seamless. Felt like a private resort! Can’t wait to return.
