The Venue

Parker Palm Springs

This decadent boutique desert oasis has all the right kinds of temptation – luxurious accommodation, an exclusive spa, award-winning dining, and memorable on-property experiences.

Parker Palm Springs has lived many lives, as the private residence to the singing cowboy Gene Autry and media mogul Merv Griffin, among others. But throughout its 70-year history, the lush estate has endured as one of the most glamorous and exclusive crash pads in all the Coachella Valley.

Stay At The Parker

For those planning to stay at Parker Palm Springs, we encourage you to reserve your rooms as soon as possible, as availability is limited. You will find the direct booking link below. We will have wedding events scheduled for Friday and, of course, the wedding taking place on Saturday.


The Pools

Deserts and pools make good company. After working up a sweat on the tennis court or a day exploring the desert, the perfect poolside moment awaits. Few Palm Springs hotels with cabanas have the style and ambience worthy of your down time like The Parker. Relax in the world’s most comfortable lounge chair, refresh with a dip in the pool, reward yourself with a very chill martini — repeat. Eat, drink, make merry or meditate. It is your moment to do as you please.

Must Try: The Main Squeeze from the Lemonade Stand. A little bit sweeter, it is dangerously drinkable.

The Spa

Spa Emporium: A destination unto itself, The Parker’s on-property Palm Springs Yacht Club (PSYC) is considered to be the best spa in Palm Springs. A day of pampering and indulgence is a day you deserve.

The Tennis Courts

Discover your inner Nadal. Offering four exclusive red clay courts, The Parker is the most distinct Palm Springs tennis resort in the valley. Lit for night play. The club Pro is available for private lessons. Reservations recommended.

The Petanque & Pastis

The classic French boules game is one of the best ways to wile away an afternoon in the company of friends, old and new. Word to the wise — playing without a glass of Pastis is considered bad manners.

The Croquet

Manicured lawns, ivy-covered walls, and a few friends make for a most civilized afternoon. Take your shoes off and enjoy the grass between your toes. A Pimm’s Cup is definitely recommended.

The Food

Dark, discreet and decadent, Mister Parker’s is the Palm Springs fine dining destination befitting those who enjoy the best.
At Counter Reformation, bar seating and ledge-leaning is the rule of thumb — think Paris tabac or the zinc — the heat of local life, crowded with regulars at the counter waiting for their vin rouge. Curated wines by the glass offered with a menu of small plated savory delicacies created for this tasting smorgasbord. More than an amuse-bouche, less than a serving. Pro Tip: Ask for a freshly baked baguette.
And lastly, Norma’s — the brightly colored open-air Terrace restaurant — serves breakfast all day and night. Mind you, the concept of breakfast at Norma’s can be a no-holds-barred extravaganza of decadent proportions.
