The Go-To Place for Sunshine, Spa time, Golf, Tennis, Shopping, Concerts, and Entertainment! Palm Springs has been welcoming cavalcades of West Coast and global guests with its signature vibe infusing this famed desert oasis, melding a time honored history dominated by celebs and Hollywood rich and famous, a mid-century modern aesthetic in architecture and design, a contemporary revisioning that is injecting a transformative youthful energy, and a booming culture of boutiques, restaurants, hospitality, music and entertainment.
Only a two hour drive from LA, Palm Springs first became the star studded image of beauty, wealth, and the imported culture of the movie industry. Desert beauty lured the movie elite with rocky hills and sceneries perfect for filming westerns and early Arabian sheik romances. With the unlimited potential of real estate came a flurry of new resorts, weekend and vacation homes, swimming pools, tennis courts, golf courses, and titillating whiffs of scandalous rendezvous and intrigue. The spirit of Palm Springs has been catapulted with social trends like bachelorette getaways, destination weddings, golf holidays and tournaments, and the immeasurable excitement of nearby Coachella and Stagecoach festivals.
The joy of discovering a hidden gem in Azure Sky, a tranquil mid-century retreat tucked near the heart of Palm Springs, must be shared. Azure Sky captures the spirit overtaking the city, transforming its deceptive mid-century modern presence with its revisioned and refreshed contemporary interiors.

An inspired lobby lounge provides a casual gathering space featuring creative use of wood showcasing custom millwork in contemporary design that creates a welcoming ambience in its decor and simplicity. A sense of serenity defines the 14 guest rooms which include 5 spacious one bedroom suites, 12 of the rooms featuring fully equipped kitchenettes, and 11 featuring furnished patios with hammocks to rock away all your cares.
