El Mirador | Palm Springs

El Mirador | Palm Springs

A small neighborhood and one of Palm Springs oldest, El Mirador is named for the famous hotel that once defined Palm Springs glitz and glamor. The hotel is gone and has been replaced by the Desert Regional Medical Center, which rebuilt the hotel’s iconic tower.

But the neighborhood retains its old Hollywood connections. El Mirador real estate is some of the best in Palm Springs. And the neighborhood is an eclectic mix of old homes dating back to the glory days of the hotel, more modern, Spanish style homes, plus several apartments and condos, and some first-class hotels and restaurants along North Indian Canyon Drive.
