Viceroy Palm Springs

This sophisticated boutique resort helped set the standard for successive Palm Springs refurbishments once Kelly Wearstler (of KWID Designs) set out on its extensive redesign in 2001 – the property now oozes chic Hollywood Regency style, reminiscent of its 1930s glamour era. It’s easy to see why former guests like Clark Gable and Carole Lombard, Bing Crosby, and F.D.R sought out serenity at the hedge-row hidden desert retreat, with manicured grounds that are today comprised of three courtyards, a trio of swimming pools, two Jacuzzis, a spa, fitness room, and trendy restaurant (Citron). Guests can choose between standard rooms, studios, suites, or private villas, many of which have balconies – expect beds outfitted with Italian down, and mod black-and-white furnishings, offset by yellow accents. www.viceroypalmsprings.com
