About the Neighborhood

Palm Springs real estate represents some of the best over all retirement/vacation home prices in the otherwise pricey California real estate market. The value for the money remains very high when compared to other areas of the state. The proximity to the 22 million southern Californians makes it a perpetually popular weekend getaway. The warmth of our winters makes it the perfect place to escape the cold and snowy weather in the North. While many of our visitors and second home owners come from the Pacific Northwest more and more are coming from Canada and beyond. Shot Of South Palm Springs From Andreas Hills The ease of arriving by air has greatly increased since the expansion of the convenient Palm Springs International airport. Once a sleepy little, winter vacation spot in the California desert the 7 cities that make up the Coachella valley have blossomed into vibrant year round communities. Palm Springs offers an enviable resort lifestyle that includes over 320 days of Sunshine per year.

The Future: looks quite bright for Palm Springs. A slew of high quality projects are on the books with hotel projects such as the Hard Rock Hotel, Ace Hotel -(opened in February 2009) and the recently remodeled Hyatt and Wyndham which is now a stunning Renaissance Hotel. The city is hard at work on a project to redevelop the old Palm Springs Fashion Plaza Mall and opening up a street leading to the front of the Palm Springs Art Museum. Recently a new Fresh and Easy market opened in central Palm Springs and an Eisenhower medical facility is being built across the street. Look for homes in Palm Springs.

Good Eats: Culinary delights are not far behind. Dinks Resturaunt Palm Springs Night Shot By Paul Roberts Photographer In late 2009 North Palm Springs saw the opening of TRIO, with reasonably priced food and drink in a pleasant setting it has quickly become the place to be seen. The classy Tropicale continues to delight with amazing cuisine and a chic setting. The Purple Palm and the "Citron" at the Viceroy hotel also offer amazing culinary experiences. We can't forget Copley's & Hamburger Marys which came to town a few years ago. The custom built DINKS has great entertainment and an amazing view of the mountains. The popular Koffi has expanded to South Palm Springs with a location at the Oceo Townhome Complex directly across the street from the Biltmore Condos on the corner of Camino Real. Diners are starting to enjoy the new culinary treats at the beautifully remodeled Riviera Resort and Spa. In 2009 we had the opening of the ACE hotel and their restaurant Kings Highway. There is now a Panera Bakery location on Ramon and Gene Autry. Of course we can't overlook longtime favorites still going strong such as Copley's, Trio, Spencers', Billy Reids', Wangs, Shermans' Deli and Ricks' and their new dinner establishment Ricks' Daily Grill.
