An Insider’s Guide to Where to Stay in Palm Springs

During Hollywood’s Golden Era in decades past, Palm Springs’s proximity to Los Angeles made it a popular spot for Hollywood icons who wanted to escape their fame-induced scrutiny.

You’ll never run out of activities to enjoy in this delightful escape of a town. Below, I’ve outlined a few favorite places to eat and stay. There is so much more Palms Springs has to offer, and when you connect with me, I’ll curate a trip specific to your preferences.
