Listen to this story:

Parker Palm Springs has a history as vivid as its striped canopies and playful midcentury design. Once the desert retreat of cowboy crooner and former California Angels owner Gene Autry, the 13-acre estate was later acquired by television impresario Merv Griffin before its reinvention by The Jack Parker Corporation. Today, with designer Jonathan Adler’s signature touch, the property balances irreverence with sophistication, creating a guest experience unlike anything else in the desert.

Accommodations are designed for both indulgence and delight: bougainvillea-draped patios, hammocks strung for afternoon lounging, plush midcentury furnishings, and bedside sheepskin foot throws. For the ultimate escape, the Gene Autry Residence — the late actor’s former home — offers two bedrooms and two baths, a speakeasy-style screening room, a private sauna, an enclosed patio, and the comfort of expansive square footage for friends and family.

Full-service spa packages await at the Palm Springs Yacht Club.

Dine in style at Counter Reformation.

Dining unfolds across six distinctive venues. Relish the elevated decadence of Mister Parker’s, the all-day indulgence of five-star diner Norma’s, and the rare pours of Counter Reformation. Sip cocktails from under a breezy canopy at the Lemonade Stand, slip into the intimate Mini Bar, or claim a romantic table for two at the world’s smallest restaurant, Mrs. Parker’s, overlooking the Gene Autry Pool.

Beyond the table, you’ll discover three sparkling saline pools, two clay tennis courts, two padel courts, pétanque, croquet, firepits, and a 24-hour fitness center. At the Palm Springs Yacht Club, relaxation and wellness meet nautical-themed whimsy with an array of invigorating spa treatments, yoga classes, and the only full-size indoor pool found at a luxury resort in the Coachella Valley.

At Parker Palm Springs, you’ll discover surprises at every turn.

Grab a patio seat at Norma’s for a delectable brunch in a quintessential Palm Springs setting.
