Vista Serena Co-op Apartments

Vista Serena Co-op Apartments is a cooperative housing community in Palm Springs, California, offering one-story garden-style apartments to resident members. The cooperative management model gives residents a voice in how the community operates.

The community features a community room where residents gather, socialize, play board games, cards, and bingo, or read in the library. A community kitchen is used to prepare dinners for parties and social events themed around holidays throughout the year. A showcase in the community room offers items for purchase by members and guests, and the space hosts monthly meetings.

Vista Serena is located within walking distance to bus stops, stores, banks, post offices, and restaurants. Downtown Palm Springs is nearby, offering additional shops, museums, movie theaters, and mini shops. The community features lush landscaping and covered parking with close proximity to units.

Safety measures include a lit walk path and a no-solicitation policy. Smoking is prohibited in any common area and within 25 feet of the building.

The cooperative is designed to be affordable; every unit has a subsidy, and resident members pay only 30 percent of their income for rent. The community encourages new members to join its long-standing, lively residential environment.
