El Cid Social invites you into a world where iconic Palm Springs architecture meets the glamorous spirit of the Halston era!
Originally crafted by renowned architect Hugh Kaptur and now thoughtfully reimagined with a bold retro‑chic aesthetic, this designer‑renovated three‑bedroom, two‑bath home offers an unforgettable blend of sophistication, comfort, and pure desert indulgence.
Every inch of the property feels intentional, expressive, and ready to elevate your vacation into something truly memorable.
From the moment you arrive, the home's striking design and curated 70s/80s décor set the tone for a stay filled with style and ease. Inside, the great room unfolds into a spacious, sun‑drenched gathering area anchored by a plush sectional, five sculptural armchairs, a sleek gas fireplace, and a 55” Smart TV.
Adjustable smart lighting scenes allow you to shift the mood from bright and energetic to soft and sultry with a single touch. The open layout flows seamlessly into the high‑end chef's kitchen, where custom striped marble countertops, an induction cooktop, a convection oven, a microwave drawer, a filtered water tap, and an oversized island for six create the perfect environment for cooking, entertaining, or simply enjoying a morning cup of coffee.
Step outside and discover your own private resort framed by swaying palms and dramatic mountain views. The expansive backyard features a sparkling pool that can be heated for an additional fee, along with a luxurious spa ideal for unwinding under the desert sky. As the sun sets behind the San Jacinto Mountains, gather around the outdoor fire pit for golden‑hour cocktails or stargazing late into the night.
A built‑in gas grill, outdoor fridge, ice machine, and generous dining area make alfresco meals effortless, while the surrounding seasonal citrus trees - grapefruit, Mexican lime, and Cara Cara orange – add a nice fragrant to the outdoor space enhancing your Palm Springs experience.
After a day of exploring downtown Palm Springs, just minutes away, or adventuring on nearby trails like North Lykken, return home to the soothing steam shower and wrap yourself in one of the plush bathrobes provided for your stay. Every detail is designed to help you unwind, recharge, and fully embrace the laid‑back luxury of desert living.
