While traveling, few things compare to pausing your sightseeing itinerary for a moment of pure indulgence and "living your Wellest." Greater Palm Springs boasts an array of exceptional beauty options, perfect for refreshing your style or experimenting with new looks.
Nestled in the heart of Palm Desert off Highway 111, beneath the stunning Santa Rosa Mountains, El Paseo offers a premier destination for beauty, relaxation, and entertainment. Save your steps by hopping on the charming Yellow Courtesy Carts that shuttle visitors block-to-block, to your car, or even to the new Hotel Paseo.

Don't miss the captivating Public Art Exhibition in the median, featuring diverse contemporary sculptures.
Now, embark on your beauty adventure.
