Tropical Modernism @ The Royal Hawaiian in South Palm Springs

Newly renovated with impeccable style yet keeping that mid-century modern feel that Palm Springs is famous for, Tropical Modernism will be the home away from home you won’t want to leave! As the name implies, Hawaii was the theme when Donald Wexler and Richard Harrison in 1960 designed this beautiful, immersive complex, so you’ll be excused for thinking that you’re about 2,500 miles further west!

As you approach the Royal Hawaiian, you’ll notice the tropics-influenced architecture. Bright oranges and yellows accent jungle browns. The famous “flying sevens” are a stunning detail, capping each building with outrigger-inspired eye candy. Enter the oasis-like grounds and notice the many tiki gods standing amidst the tropical and desert flora to welcome you.
When you cross the threshold into this beautiful home, the thoughtful mid-century modern look and décor will make you “aha” as you realize the perfection of the name Tropical Modernism.

And the view — just look at those photos! Situated at the foot of the majestic San Jacinto mountains at the prized south end of Palm Springs, the desert scenery and vibe will sooth you better than any cocktail...but why not have a Mai Tai?!

This stunning two-bedroom condo is in the landmark Royal Hawaiian Estates, Palm Springs’ first designated Class 1 Historic Residential District. This home boasts vintage and new modernist furnishings, lighting and artwork from Modernica, Blue Dot, Herman Miller, Eero Saarinen, Vernor Panton, George Nelson, Alexander Girard, Shag, William Krisel and Gary Wexler.

Accommodations:
Enter the spacious living room and be wowed by the clever combination of vintage and new modern furniture and décor. The soft ochre hues immediately begin to relax you. The navy, patterned rug guides your eye to the television wall and its wonderfully accented wallpaper. Whimsical art, a Vintage Electrohome Apollo 711 Turntable & Ball Speakers (1971), and a yellow Grasshopper Chair & Ottoman designed by Eero Saarinen beckon you to relax.

Terrazzo floor tiles lead you around to the dining area where you’ll find a classic Saarinen pedestal table and tulip chairs. The kitchen, again in that soothing ochre with clean white accents, is a perfect combination of original mid-century style plus modern appliances.

Open the sliding patio door and be transported to paradise! Your patio overlooks one of the 2 pools at Royal Hawaiian, visible through the lush tropical foliage that provides you with privacy. And you are just steps away from the hot tub!

Make your way to the master bedroom suite where the Modernica king bed and Brooklinen linens will lull you to sleep, then awaken to the beautiful nature just outside another sliding door to the patio. A "Stash" desk and chair are available for any work from home needs. And dig the unchanged ensuite bath with its original sunken Roman bath!

The second bedroom also features fun wallpaper, Mode Desk by Herman Miller and chair for any work from home needs, and the hotel quality queen bed and Brooklinen linens will send you to dreamland.

So mix up a tiki drink, lounge poolside, and bask in the serene beauty that is Tropical Modernism at the Royal Hawaiian Estates!
