WELCOME!Welcome to historic Warm Sands, Palm Springs most cosmopolitan neighborhood. Located just south of Ramon Road, Warm Sands is within walking distance to all the entertainment, shopping, and dining venues of downtown. Yet our neighborhood remains a world unto itself, one that is a microcosm of everything Palm Springs has to offer. The mix of single family homes in Warm Sands is quite unique. One will find fine examples of Spanish adobes, endangered Monterey Colonial homes, vintage California ranches, plus the clean lines of the Mid-Century Modern homes that Palm Springs is most noted for. The area also offers beautiful gated communities and historic resorts dating back to 1920. In fact one of our eleven resorts, Warm Sands Villas, is listed on the 2004 Citywide Historic Resources Survey. Warm Sands was a favorite location back in the day. This trend echoes with the vintage Ramon Trailer Park toward the eastern edge of Warm Sands, that was advertised in local magazines in 1946 as “the place for transient tourists to enjoy trailer living and picnic tables”. Our burgeoning retail row is a fresh slice of urbanity with goods and services ranging from the practical and traditional to the alternative. The retail establishments along Ramon and Sunrise include a wonderful heath food store and a delicious bakery-- just to mention a few. The establishments along Sunny Dunes feature an authentic Mexican restaurant, a gourmet dog and cat food shop, a high quality fetish glamour boutique, plus an old-fashioned hardware store that is credited with being the first hardware store in Palm Springs. Those of us who live in Warm Sands are proud of the cultural diversity, the historic and rhythmic qualities of our neighborhood. Whether you are visiting, renting, or buying a residence in Warm Sands, we want you to feel welcome. Good fences may make good neighbors, but we like to focus our energies on good will. We hope you remember fondly the time you spend in Warm Sands.
