Missed Parts 1 and 2? Read them here and here. Now, we’re delving into boutique hotels that have food and beverages available for guests only — but I’ve also got a few surprises tucked in here as well. With these resorts, breakfasts are almost always included, and the afternoons have other delectable amenities. It’s all […]
“I never worry about being driven to drink; I just worry about being driven home.” — W. C. Fields It’s party season everywhere, but no one parties quite like Palm Springs. The “Say Gay” city is the best of all worlds: gay, straight or bent, it doesn’t matter. As long as you like life with […]
Season is officially here! We always kick off with a Halloween Party on Arenas, and then bang on into Pride, the biggest party of the year. The temperatures haven’t cracked 100 in a few weeks, and we’re about to dip into the 70s during the daytime and 40s or 50s at night. It’s the sweet […]
It’s here! It’s officially season again, and Palm Springs is bursting with activity and fantastic weather — come on out! There’s so much going on it’s hard to keep up, but I’m gonna do my best to make it easy for you to figure out what to do once you’ve decided on the perfect small […]
It’s getting even hotter here in Palm Springs, and I’m not just talking about the temperature. From the ashes of 2020, new establishments were born – some so new that locals haven’t even had an opportunity to try them!

We’re rolling into summer, which means hotter days with evenings in the 70s (we’re leaving it a surprise as to whether it’s high or low 70s). So far, we’ve made it through the International Film Festival, Modernism Week, the BNP, Coachella, Stagecoach, and in June we’ve got Short Fest. This month we celebrate Cinco de […]

In the early 1900s, Palm Springs […]
A little tequila, a little dance, a little party in your pants. — Kay Kudukis It’s Cinco de Mayo again, happens every damn year — and we’re very happy about that. Before we get into where to go and what to do, let’s clarify a few misconceptions about the day. Cinco de Mayo is not […]
Located off the beaten path, tucked away in the Deepwell neighborhood of south Palm Springs, is a very special resort called Villa Royale. Situated on the tony tree-lined Indian Trail, it was built in 1947 next to two of Palm Springs’ old ranches: Smoketree and Deepwell Guest Ranch. Now, the resort is home to the […]
‘Tis the season! The next three months in Palm Springs not only provide more local entertainment, but we have three huge events. Read on weekend warriors! The Dinah September 21-25: The Dinah is the largest queer, lesbian, non-binary party in the world. I’m very sorry I didn’t tell you about this back in August, but […]
