Palm Springs Icon

In Vista Las Palmas, this mid-century home by Dan Palmer and William Krisel – later updated by Hal Levitt – comes with some serious Palm Springs credentials, including Class 1 Historic Site status. The living space opens straight onto the pool, with glass walls that slide away completely. There’s a sunken living area facing the San Jacinto Mountains, which feels very Palm Springs. Outside, a swim-up bar sits at the water’s edge, with a spa and fire pit for later in the day. Each bedroom has its own en-suite, with details like a skylit shower and courtyard access. You can walk to nearby cafés and restaurants, and Joshua Tree is just under an hour away.

Home truths:
*Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There is private parking here.

*You will need to bring your own pool or beach towels.

*The lead guest must be at least 25 years old.

*The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.

*While the third en-suite isn’t photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
