Vista Las Palmas was once the destination of starts like Marilyn Monroe, Debbie Reynolds, George Hamilton, Dinah Shore, Peter Lawford, and many others. It was also a favorite of the Rat Pack; Sammy Davis, Jr., Dean Martin, and Frank Sinatra. And it was here that Elvis and Priscilla spent their honeymoon. This community still has its celebrities like Ruta Lee, Carney Wilson, and Trini Lopez as well as many professionals from Los Angeles and Northern California. Many residents are young gay and straight couples with children.
Vista Las Palmas has around 375 homes and most of them were developed by George and Robert Alexander. The neighborhood has been in the process of revitalization since the late 1990’s. Some homes have been restored to their original states while others have been modernized to keep up with the times.
Today the community is a symbol of mid-century modern design. Amenities for these homes may include stone floors, vaulted ceilings, stainless steel appliances, and spacious closets in the master suites.
