The sun was bright & gently peeked through the shades, coupled with an aroma of coffee & morning delights...
My morning began in a luxury Palm Springs resort hotel unlike any other. This decadent boutique desert oasis had all the right kinds of temptation – luxurious accommodation, an exclusive spa, award-winning dining, and memorable on-property experiences that still linger with me.
A short memoir
I felt a sensation of mystery and intrigue, as though adventure had personified itself and was calling for me just as I had awoken.
The sun was bright & gently peeked through the shades, coupled with an aroma of coffee & morning delights...
Breakfast was perfectly on point--original, decadent and definitely not what my mother ever served. Satiated & inspired, I was ready to explore...
Wandering through the grounds I felt lost in the most delicious way, surrounded by fruit trees and herb gardens.
What better way to follow a morning of discovery & delight than to decompress and relax - pamper away.
The sun was warm, the water was cool and I felt completely at ease. What more could you ask for? Perhaps a cocktail...
I stumbled up a Citron oasis adjacent to the Pétanque court. Spiked lemonade - a swift segue to relaxation...
Halfway into my pampering experience, I found myself thinking... well, actually not thinking at all.
Now feeling numb to the outside bustle, I was ready for a night of adventurous imbibing -- decadent food and inspired cocktails.
Tantalizing bites and expertly selected wine choices start the evening...
At dinner I felt transported to a place of true indulgence...
Nightcaps at the Mini Bar and a cozy fire end the perfect day-dream. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got a date with my bed.
The time is now
Wake up and start dreaming at the best boutique hotel in Palm Springs.
