The Shops on El Paseo
Designer shopping meets sophisticated dining at The Shops on El Paseo, a luxury retail district located at the base of the Santa Rosa Mountains in Palm Desert — the heart of California’s Coachella Valley.
This iconic stretch of El Paseo offers a shopping and dining experience all its own, framed by stately palm trees, public art, acclaimed restaurants, and an impressive collection of boutiques. Discover national favorites such as RH, Ralph Lauren, Oliver Peoples, Warby Parker, Free People, Vuori, and Athleta, or explore casual luxury at Chico’s and Soma. Enhance your home with selections from The Shade Store and Roche Bobois, then unwind with small plates on the patio at Kitchen 86 + Bar, brunch at Porta Via or Daily Grill, a memorable dinner at Eddie V’s, or a slice from Winston Pies.
With ample self-parking conveniently located behind the storefronts, this stylish destination blends exceptional service with the relaxed sophistication of the desert lifestyle.
El Paseo Premier Centre
At the heart of iconic El Paseo, between Larrea Street and Larkspur Lane, El Paseo Premier Centre is a refined collection of boutiques, dining, and lifestyle experiences that embody the spirit of luxury desert living.
Steps from The Gardens on El Paseo and Hotel Paseo, the center offers a thoughtfully curated mix of retailers and specialty merchants, including Brandon Boswell Diamonds, Faherty, Olivier Napa Valley, Lolo Interiors, J's Deli, All Tressed Up, Pretty Nails & Hair, and House of Lolo. Together, they create a welcoming destination where fashion, design, dining, and personal services come together in an intimate, walkable setting.
More than a shopping destination, El Paseo Premier Centre is part of the rhythm of Palm Desert life—a place to browse, gather, discover, and connect. Framed by the iconic palm-lined boulevard and surrounded by the energy of the city's premier shopping district, it offers residents and visitors an authentic expression of the Coachella Valley lifestyle, where exceptional merchants, timeless style, and memorable experiences define every visit.
El Paseo Park Plaza
Visitors and locals alike gather at this garden-style plaza in the central area of El Paseo’s premier dining and shopping district. With a flowing central fountain, bustling café, and ample parking, El Paseo Park Plaza boasts a curated collection of restaurants, boutiques, galleries, professional services, and available office spaces.
Located on the corner of El Paseo and Sage Street, The Plaza on El Paseo has a charming inner corridor tucked away, right off the main path. JC’s Cafe, a family-owned restaurant since 1987, offers delicious food, refreshing cocktails, and an incredible outdoor patio ambience that brings vibrancy to the entire plaza. Continue your visit by perusing the specialty shops, including Chrissy’s, Blonde, Kaylie Nicole, Desert Artists Gallery, and a vinyl collection inside Winzer Hair Salon & Records. Professional services in The Plaza include The Brow Reset, Giancarlo Salon, and facials at Chakra Esthetics. Within The Plaza’s two-story property are available retail and office spaces for prospective tenants.

Galleria
Nestled within The Shops of El Paseo, near the west end entrance, are two of Chartwell’s newly acquired properties, Eleganté and Galleria. These multi-tenant, pedestrian friendly spaces offer an upscale mix of dining, retail, services, art galleries, and coveted office spaces. With free parking behind the buildings and a relaxing courtyard between properties, the Eleganté and Galleria properties are the perfect place to start your Palm Desert adventure or continue your day of leisurely strolling down El Paseo.
Shop your way through the dazzling women’s fashions at Maison Leveque Boutique, then browse tempting jewelry and watches at Frizzante Fine Jewelers and Artin Jewels. Explore upscale art galleries including Dawson Cole Fine Art, Desert Wolff Gallery, and Peri G. Fine Art. When you’ve worked up an appetite, head to The Venue Sushi & Sake Lounge, voted repeatedly as “Best Sushi in Coachella Valley” by Palm Springs Life.
