The Movie Colony

Lights, camera, action! Hollywood's Golden Age was also golden for Palm Springs. Hollywood stars wanted someplace to play. Palm Springs, with an "anything goes" attitude, and just a short drive away in the California desert, was the perfect playground. And, The Movie Colony was the center.

Hollywood glamour is still here, of course, but today's residents of The Movie Colony are more apt to be drawn to the neighborhood for its close-in location, diverse architecture, and large private home sites.

Walk or bike to hotspots along N. Palm Canyon Dr, such as Cheeky’s, Eight4nine, and Lola Rose in the Thompson Hotel…all with healthy food options, including plant-based meals. Walk the dog in the expansive Ruth Hardy Park, or sit poolside with a drink with drop-dead gorgeous view of Mt San Jacinto.
