Things To Do

Mr. Lyons

Enjoy the perfect Dirty Martini at the bar! Great for Happy Hour or dinner!

The Nest

You'll understand once you go :) A fun time for drinks + the piano bar!

Workshop Kitchen & Bar

KOFFI

Great coffee shop right down the street from STR and other nearby hotels!

Farm

Owner Liz Ostoich modeled Farm after the places she visited in her travels through southern France. This explains the Provençal aesthetic in the garden dining area (green shutters, wicker chairs, rustic wood dining tables), the French-press coffee, the house-made jams, and the truly impressive variety of paper-thin sweet and savory crepes. When we're there, we participate in an (almost) all-Brie diet, made possible by the pear, Brie, arugula, walnut, and date jam baguette, followed by the hazelnut, fig, and brown-sugar-baked Brie.

Cheeky's

Great for breakfast! It's all about the classics: Chilaquiles, the fluffy pancakes, and a really good eggs Benedict!

Two Bunch Palms

Specific for out-of-state guests looking to explore a bit more!! On-site hot springs justify the 30 minute drive from Palm Springs proper . The mineral healing waters are pumped into a picturesque grotto which is made up of two pools, one at 99 degrees and the other at 104 (those extra 5 degrees make a huge difference, actually).

Palm Springs Aerial Tramway

The concept for the tramway was born in 1935, but the project didn’t come to fruition until 1963: It was really ambitious. After boarding at the Valley Station, the ride up the mountain (elevation 8,516 ft) takes no longer than ten minutes and the views of Chino Canyon from the rotating tramcar are nothing short of breathtaking. At the top you’ll find Peaks restaurant (the food isn’t too memorable but the setting is extraordinary), the ultra laid back Pines Café, and The Lookout Lounge cocktail bar. There are hikes and the like available (you'll probably share your tram with a troop of eager campers). Because temperatures in the valley and the top of the mountain vary drastically, riding the tramway offers a much-needed reprieve from the desert’s sweltering heat in the summer—off-season, pack a sweater.

Joshua Tree

Just under an hour away from Smoke Tree Ranch is one of Southern California's most magical state parks to explore.

PGA WEST Private Clubhouse & Golf Courses

Just one of over 120 courses in the greater Palm Springs area. The weather in the desert this time of year is ideal to hit your perfect swing!
