Description

The Mesa Bungalows is a bold and iconic Palm Springs estate, privately gated and set in the coveted neighborhood of The Mesa in South Palm Springs. Originally built in 1937, this Spanish style villa was designed as both a showpiece and a resort-style retreat, with a vintage pink and green palette inspired by the Beverly Hills Hotel and Jayne Mansfield's iconic Pink Palace. The outdoor experience is nothing short of extraordinary--featuring a custom putting green, a pink kidney-shaped pool and spa with a cascading rock waterfall, an ornate gazebo, and water fountain. An upper level entertaining space showcases a built-in BBQ, fireplace, and a daybed shaded by large pink metal palm fronds. Inside, the home continues its unapologetically chic aesthetic with a fully curated pink interior. The kitchen is outfitted with statement-making Smeg appliances and bold pink quartz countertops, blending playful glamour with modern sophistication. Four separate en-suite bedrooms sprawl the two levels of the home, including one with its own private sun deck overlooking the property. Every detail has been carefully considered to celebrate color, design, and the indoor-outdoor lifestyle Palm Springs is known for. Striking, expressive, and undeniably exclusive, Mesa Bungalows is not just a home--it's a destination, a statement, and a true Palm Springs original perfect for short-term rentals or a private getaway.
