Palm Springs Holidays

Hollywood films stars have been coming here since the 1920s; The Rat Pack, Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley all lived, loved and played here where they could relax and escape their showbiz lives in Hollywood. The legendary ‘two hour rule’ of Hollywood Studios put Palm Springs on the map.

Cupped in the palm of the majestic San Jacinto Mountains at the edge of the Sonoran Desert, sunny Palm Springs is a laid-back resort filled with retro charms and striking landscape. We love Palm Springs for its desert oasis feel with a dash of European style. Hike palm-studded canyons, play at lush golf courses, shop in unique malls and boutiques, or take the 10 minute Palm Springs Aerial Tramway up the sheer cliffs of Chino Canyon for spectacular views of the surrounding pristine wilderness. Explore nearby Joshua tree National Park where two desert ecosystems meet and see a fascinating variety of plants and animals.

Visit Palm Springs as part of your California road trip; start north in San Francisco and travel down scenic Highway 1 stopping off in beach towns, hit the theme parks of Los Angeles and then travel less than 2 hours to this true desert oasis.
