The Holidays at Parker Palm Springs

A joy that is shared is a joy made double.”
— John Roy

 

Christmas in Palm Springs is a wonderful time of the year. Festivities with family and friends, the joy of gift giving, and delicious holiday menus enrich our souls and fill our hearts. It is a busy time of year that can sometimes pass by too quickly, with too few moments for relaxation.

This year, make a point to give yourself the gift of a getaway at Parker Palm Springs, the best resort hotel in Palm Springs. Situated on thirteen private acres, our estate is the perfect combination of lots to do and plenty of room to do it. Our unique variety of experiences and activities include the incomparable mister parker’s, considered among the best restaurants in Palm Springs and the stunning Palm Springs Yacht Club, our on-property spa Vogue Magazine calls “serene and chic all at once.”

At Parker Palm Springs, time seems to slow down, and your day has no itinerary except the one you choose. Like to stretch in the morning? Start your day on the lawn with our resident yogi, then restore yourself with a delicious breakfast at Norma’s, our outdoor terrace restaurant, set in the heart of our desert garden oasis. 

If relaxing is your top priority, repose by one of our three gorgeous swimming pools, each with its own special ambience. In your own cabana, with cocktails and fresh-fruit kabobs, and nothing on the agenda but to take a refreshing dip, it is a moment you will thank yourself for.

If you are feeling energetic, hit the trail just behind our property for a short hike offering views of the Coachella Valley. Or take a complimentary bicycle and discover Palm Springs. The main part of town is wonderfully devoid of hills, making exploring the boutiques, cafes, and shopping in Palm Springs a fun, easy adventure.

There are so many things to do in Palm Springs. The annual Festival of Lights Parade is always a seasonal favorite. This year it takes place on December 7th and highlights include marching bands, the Budweiser Clydesdales, and Mr. & Mrs Claus. There is also the always delightful VillageFest, a weekly Thursday evening street fair highlighting local food and entertainment.

December is also a great time to catch live music in Palm Springs and venues like McCallum Theatre and the Acrisure Arena will see a cavalcade of world-class entertainers grace their stages throughout the holidays.

After a busy day of exploring (or relaxing), come evening make your way down to our outdoor firepit and enjoy some time to reflect. Here, toasting s’mores around the open fire, it is hard not to be in awe of the desert night sky and the Milky Way shimmering brightly. On a night like this, the ‘Gift of the Magi’ is the moment you realize you are at peace.
