Palm Springs is Always a Good Idea

With its palm-lined avenues, world-class shopping and dining, and perpetual sunshine, Palm Springs has long been a sought-after desert escape.

Hike to a spectacular waterfall tucked away in a canyon, play as many rounds of golf as you can handle, or simply kick back on your private balcony or patio with a cocktail in hand.

Because in Palm Springs, it’s all possible.
