About Palm Canyon

Mesa

Palm Canyon Mesa, located between South Palm Canyon Drive and the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains National Monument boundary, is a mid-century and desert-modern Palm Springs neighborhood with a hillside setting and wide mountain views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the South Palm Canyon Drive corridor near Smoketree Village, where patios, small storefronts, and desert landscaping set a relaxed, design-forward tone. Architectural lines lean low-slung and geometric, with many homes oriented to the slope and the light. Indian Canyons’ trailheads and palm-lined roads shape daily routines with a strong outdoors cadence. Moorten Botanical Garden and Cactarium adds a living gallery of desert plants close by. The Ace Hotel & Swim Club and Koffi South Palm Canyon serve as recognizable local anchors for coffee, poolside scenes, and casual meetups.
