Best Golf Resorts in Palm Springs
The golf resorts in Palm Springs attract visitors from all corners of the world by offering magnificent scenery, some of the finest food in the world and limitless amenities, including some of the world's best golf courses. Though Palm Springs only incorporated in the late 1930s, it offers abundant culture and sophistication usually reserved for cities much larger. If you are looking for a resort where the golf is unsurpassed, look no further.

Desert Springs

Marriott International outdid itself when it opened Desert Springs in Palm Desert, California. When you arrive, you will be struck by the luxurious surroundings of this resort, especially the immaculately manicured fairways of Palm Desert's golf courses that are set against the backdrop of the magnificent Santa Rosa Mountains only a few miles away. The helpful staff will assist you with your reservations at any of the almost 100 golf courses in the Valley.

But golf is only part of what you will enjoy. For instance, you will board a gondola at dinnertime that will whisk you off to one of the resort's five-star restaurants where you will dine on specialties prepared with elegance and aplomb. Spend a few days at this resort, and you'll experience the best of everything that will make your stay memorable.

Being pampered is only one feature you'll enjoy while you're staying at The Parker, one of the best-kept secret resorts in all the Palm Springs area.

The property has a splendid executive golf course that is beautifully maintained, and was where President Eisenhower made his only hole-in-one. Besides this marvelous golf course, The Parker has developed relationships with virtually every course in the Coachella Valley, and its staff will gladly arrange for you to play any of them during your stay.
