To “Rest and Relax” often “Revitalizes” us with a new perspective on life. Staying at Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa in Rancho Mirage will increase your overall health and wellness this New Year! From the moment you arrive at luxurious desert oasis resort, you immediately feel a sense of comfort & tranquility to embark on journey of fun activities for you and your guests.

The accommodations feature a Spanish Colonial-inspired style with French doors that open to furnished private patios or balconies with breathtaking views of luscious grounds overlooking the San Jacinto and San Bernardino Mountains. All rooms are fully equipped with in-room technology, wet bar & other opulent amenities. Many guests love the “Pet friendly” policy.
The best experience is at SPA LAS PALMAS which is considered one of the best spas in Palm Springs, including a Eucalyptus steam room, sauna and in-door jacuzzi. You will enjoy a full day lounging in their luscious spa robes in the relaxation room before and after your spa treatment. Spa Day Packages are available to enhance your visit. I chose the LIFE FORCE MASSAGE which “integrates healing modalities to restore the harmonious flow of life within that combines a firm nurturing massage with the benefit of specific bodywork techniques…to balance the flow of Chi and energize the meridians…to nurture the life-giving systems of the body, release tension, energize the senses, increase vitality and restore overall wellbeing.”
The AZURE POOL (Adult Only) at the SPA is the perfect place for relaxation during your spa day. Food & beverage service is provided by the pool staff with delicious spa cuisine menu & craft cocktails.
The SPA & SALON RETAIL BOUTIQUE carries the resort’s signature aroma essences, which are “100 percent pure, blending healing flowers, plants and herbs from the native California desert with essential oils and certified organic ingredients and extracts.” Spa guests can enjoy complimentary PURE+INVENTIONS antioxidant water to stay hydrated throughout the day. My favorite flavor is their CRANBERRY + ELDERBERRY Water Infusion Drops which I bought to take my spa experience home. The boutique also features locally-inspired jewelry and fashion attire from Beyond Yoga, Alo and more.

Families and younger guests love the heated Lazy River Pool with waterslide and cliff-side hot tub in Splashtopia. Guests can snack poolside at Splash Grill including cool tropical drinks and order from pool deck servers. The new Conchilla Valley Pool is now open with a shaded splash pad and 8 private VIP cabanas, each including a mini fridge, television and seating for up to 6 people. Throughout the year, the resort offers many creative activities for children and teens including birdhouse painting, cookie decorating, arts & crafts and sand art.

Dining options are abundant with 5 Resort Restaurants including Between the 9s at the Clubhouse where you can gather after an enjoyable day on the golf course or court; bluEmber, the resort’s signature restaurant featuring California New American cuisine, a unique Palm Springs dining experience with an exquisite menu, variety of fine wines, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner and the R Bar to enjoy handcrafted cocktails, American comfort foods, pizza and burgers with the family and flat screen TVs.
Fitness is usually a priority for people who visit the desert, whether they play golf or tennis, or simply exercise outdoors. The tennis facility is one of Tennis Magazine’s Top 50 USA Tennis Resorts with 18 tennis courts and 8 pickleball courts. 7 of the courts are lit for fun any time day or night so you can enjoy world-class Palm Springs tennis, featuring adult clinics for a range of skill levels.
Both amateur and professional golfers alike love the 27 Holes of Championship Golf on 3 distinct rotations – North, South and West, which “wind through palm tree-lined fairways and gently rolling terrains…6 lakes and the infamous Ted Robinson bunkers.” Tee times and rates vary and golf lessons are available for individuals and groups for all ages and ability levels.
