Robert & Helene Alexander Residence
The Robert & Helene Alexander Residence is a house in Palm Springs designed by architect William Krisel in 1960 and known for its distinctive circular design. It features four connected round rooms, floor-to-ceiling windows, floor-level stone and terrazzo throughout, a curved living area with built-in seating, and a large pool with outdoor dining area.
Built in 1960, the house gained recognition when a magazine published it as the "House of Tomorrow" in 1962. It became widely known after Elvis Presley and Priscilla stayed here during their honeymoon in 1967.
The residence reflects the design aspirations of 1960s Palm Springs, where modern architecture met a desire for outdoor living and natural light. Its round shapes and open layout show how the era imagined comfortable homes that connected indoors and outdoors.
The house is located in the Vista Las Palmas neighborhood and is visible from the street. Visits typically require prior arrangement, and access to the property is restricted to maintain its privacy.
Elvis Presley and Priscilla spent their honeymoon here in 1967, and their daughter Lisa Marie was born at the house nine months later. This connection earned it the nickname "Elvis Honeymoon Hideaway" and remains central to its fame.
