Las Palmas Alexander – 1962 Alexander Home with Saltwater Pool, Spa, Fire Pit & Mountain Views
Truly unforgettable mountain views await you at Las Palmas Alexander, a remarkable mid‑century modern home built by the Alexander Company in 1962 and set in one of the most coveted enclaves of Vista Las Palmas. This hillside stretch, once known as Las Palmas Summit, was reserved for the final and most prized Alexander lots, designed by renowned architect Charles Du Bois. With its elevated position and dramatic natural backdrop, the neighborhood has long been celebrated for offering some of the best views in all of Palm Springs, and this home captures that magic from the moment you arrive.
Inside, the home blends iconic mid‑century architecture with contemporary comfort, creating a bright, airy, and sophisticated desert retreat. The open great room features clean lines, clerestory windows, and a gas fireplace, allowing sunlight and mountain silhouettes to animate the space throughout the day. A cozy media room with a second fireplace offers an intimate spot for movie nights or quiet evenings indoors. The gourmet kitchen overlooks the living area and is outfitted with Viking appliances, high‑end cabinetry, and a sleek, modern design that honors the home's original mid‑century character. Every detail feels intentional, allowing the architecture and natural surroundings to take center stage.
The primary bedroom is spacious and serene, offering a king‑size bed, clerestory windows, and a glass sliding door that frames stunning mountain views and provides direct access to the pool and spa. The en‑suite bathroom features a double vanity and a step‑down shower, creating a spa‑like experience that feels both luxurious and timeless. The guest bedroom is equally inviting, with a comfortable queen‑size bed, luxurious linens, and its own glass slider that opens to a private patio with magnificent mountain views. A six‑drawer dresser, nightstands, lamps, and ample closet space complete the room. The hallway bathroom includes a shower‑and‑jacuzzi tub combination and generous storage for all your travel essentials.
Outdoors, the home becomes a true Palm Springs oasis. The private saltwater pool and spa are perfectly positioned to take in the sweeping mountain panorama, creating a breathtaking backdrop for sunbathing, swimming, or simply relaxing in the warm desert air. Evenings are especially magical as the sun sets behind the peaks and the sky glows in shades of pink and gold. A BBQ grill makes outdoor cooking effortless, and the firepit invites guests to gather beneath the stars. For added enjoyment, the owners have provided bikes and helmets, making it easy to explore the neighborhood or cruise into town.
Las Palmas Alexander is ideally located in Vista Las Palmas, one of the most prestigious and architecturally significant neighborhoods in central Palm Springs. Known for its mid‑century estates and celebrity homes, the area offers a quiet, upscale residential setting just 1.5 miles from the heart of downtown. A leisurely stroll or bike ride brings you to Palm Canyon Drive, where you'll find acclaimed restaurants, boutique shops, art galleries, theaters, and vibrant nightlife. Outdoor enthusiasts can hike the nearby hills, golfers can choose from dozens of championship courses throughout the valley, and adventure‑seekers can take an unforgettable ride on the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, located just six miles west.
This home offers a rare combination of architectural pedigree, modern comfort, and breathtaking natural beauty - a quintessential Palm Springs vacation experience that feels both iconic and deeply relaxing.

One of the earlier reviews mentioned that "the pictures do not do it justice" and I have to agree. House was awesome! Amazingly quiet neighborhood. House was super clean upon arrival and had everything we needed. Sat by the pool for two days of our stay and loved it. Plenty of linens, bed was comfortable. Sitting out front in the mornings was so peaceful. Everything about this trip was great. Highly recommend!!!
We love this house! It is in a wonderful location, right up against the hillside in a charming neighborhood. The interior of the house is super clean and mid-century stylish. The pool and hot tub were terrific.
There were only two small downsides to our experience: 1) The bikes at the house were decrepit and unusable; 2) there was a lot of back-and-forth with the property manager to finally confirm that we could have our daughter, and two of her friends visit us during the day on one of our days in the house. The rules about occupants are very strict!
Overall, the house is amazing!
This was one of those rare occasions where the actual property was even better looking than the pictures. The space is very comfortable, with a great kitchen and living space. One of my issues with rentals is often that the furniture is uncomfortable to actually sit on, but that was not the case here. The salt water pool was heated to the perfect temperature (you sort of have to have it heated this time of year) and the spa was a real treat. Plus, all of this is accessible from the bedroom, bathroom and living room. But the best part is the location. The neighborhood is quite fancy with beautiful houses all around (an encyclopedia of mid-Century modern real estate) and the house itself is located at the foot of the mountains, so every evening we'd sit out front, sip front, and watch the stars appear over the mountain.. Really a perfect place.
Someone else said this and I agree - this is the first property that in person exceeded the pictures online!
Every 6 months we stay in Los Palmas so we already know the area is elegant and cool. This house was so perfect and much higher quality accommodations that we usually see in a short term rental. The linens, beds, over-all look and feel, beautifully stocked dishes, cook sets, spices, Viking appliances - it was very very nice and we appreciate it all! Beautiful pool setting.
Beyond all of that the hosts were brilliant. It is a local company and the communication was outstanding. Yes we had a minor issue - nothing to be concerned about - but something we had to contact them about and they were prompt, attentive, accommodating, and just flat on-it. Not all services are but they were brilliant.
I would absolutely stay here again and every time as long as it is available. :-)
Exactly what we wanted. Beautiful property and amazing views of the mountains and landscape. High end furnishings and appliances. The property is located in an established, well-kept neighborhood. Very happy with the ease of communication with the property managment company. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you! :)
Perfect sized house with lovely yard and amenities.
Great house and great location. We had a couple of questions/ small plumbing issues but the property management company was super responsive and resolved them immediately.
