Oasis by Design
“What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well.”
— Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Parker Palm Springs is a true desert oasis. Full of natural beauty, our private thirteen-acre estate is a lush, tropical garden, full of hidden niches and delightful surprises. Carefully curated, the property retains its sense of place while providing a variety of opportunities to experience true bliss – those moments when time seems to slow down, cares slip away, and the mind is free to wander.
Long considered the best Palm Springs resort and spa, we are an annual favorite of Condé Nast Traveler and receive regular accolades as a must-visit Palm Springs destination. Our property is designed to let you lose yourself (without getting lost). To that end, we’ve created a special estate map to help you discover all of our secrets.
There is nothing like dreaming while you’re awake.
From the moment you arrive, you know you’re somewhere special. Pass through the Brise-soleil, our iconic entrance, and you’ll feel transported. The attentive, yet unpretentious service will immediately set you at ease too – we’re here when you need us but we never hover.
Your room, suite or villa is as unique as you are. In fact, Jonathan Adler who created our distinct interior design, regularly adds fresh touches to keep things exciting. Garden suites with four-poster beds? Of course. Poolside rooms with personal daybeds? Absolutely. Rooms with a private outdoor sandbox and a hammock? Our imagination knows no bounds. The right room makes all the difference and yours is waiting.
After settling in, wander over to the Living Room, the lounge proper, for some refreshments. It’s part mod, part modern, all comfort, and the perfect place for cocktails and conversation. For a more intimate experience, pop into the adjacent Mini Bar to get up close and personal with your mixologist.
True luxury is choosing when, not what.
A carefree escape is all about having the right choices. For example, why have one gorgeous swimming pool when you can have three? Each has its own musical ambience, so there is always a vibe to suit your mood. Once you’ve donned that stunning swimsuit, it’s time to decide how to repose. The world’s most comfortable lounge chair or a private poolside cabana? A complimentary fresh fruit kabob or a refreshing cocktail? Why not both?
When you’re ready for a stroll, follow the meandering paths to explore the grounds. Discover an immaculate English Croquet lawn tucked behind a hedgerow or the Pétanque Courts beneath a grove of shade trees. Both are a great way to pass an afternoon – especially with a Pimm’s Cup or glass of Pastis. If you prefer something more thoughtful, make like Bobby Fisher around our Giant Chess Set which is always set for play. For tennis aficionados, embrace your inner Nadal on our terre battue tennis courts, unique to Palm Springs.
After some play time, you’ll be ready for some down time at Palm Springs Yacht Club, our renowned on-property spa-emporium that Vogue magazine calls “serene and chic all at once.” We’ll welcome you with a thimbleful of cucumber-infused vodka and a key to the private locker room. After donning a luxurious robe and slippers, you’ll set sail to one of our 15 private treatment rooms for a blissful session of relaxation. Facials, wraps, reflexology, and massages are all personalized to your specifications.
Excess can be virtuous, especially on vacation.
Good food, good ambience, and good company are the foundation of la dolce vita and we offer six on-property dining establishments to help you enjoy them all. Mornings begin at Norma’s, our 5-star diner that serves brunch all day, a recommended favorite of Forbes. Counter Reformation, an ode to Paris tabacs, offers an eclectic wine list and is one of Eater LA’s best bars in Palm Springs. Then there is the incomparable mister parker’s, a perennial choice for best restaurant in Palm Springs. Dark, discreet, and decadent, the Observer named it as one of the best culinary destinations in California.
After a day of excitement, relaxation, and indulgence, wander down to our outdoor firepit. With a cocktail in hand, lay back in a comfortable butterfly chair and look up – nothing twinkles quite like the stars in the desert night sky. Except maybe you, at this moment, contemplating the delights that tomorrow will bring at Parker Palm Springs.
