Vista Suite, Three-bedroom, The Ritz-Carlton, Rancho Mirage
Standing effortlessly chic on an elevated bluff gazing across Palm Springs and the Coachella Valley 650 ft below, this desert dame has been sitting pretty amongst the cacti on Frank Sinatra Drive for decades. Though, you’d never know by its interiors which combine sleek modernity with a dash of classic Palm Springs aesthetic.
The resort’s 25,000-sq-ft award-winning spa guarantees an afternoon of blissful relaxation. As do the poolside cabanas equipped with sofas and flat-screen televisions. However, at the adults-only infinity edge pool you’d be hard pushed to transfix your vision on anything apart from the view as you sip on chilled Veuve Clicquot.
Accommodation is designed to invite the desert surrounds in (as well as Palm Springs’ famed tangerine and fuschia-infused sunsets). For all-out luxury book the Vista Suite, Three-Bedroom. As the name suggests, the resort’s most spacious suite at 2,400 sq ft offers uninterrupted views of the astounding locale through floor-to-ceiling windows. The natural surroundings are best enjoyed from the sizable veranda complete with a firepit for when the desert temperatures lower in the evening moonlight. There is also an outdoor shower for when the daytime heat soars.
The three-bedroom hideaway features a timeless interior with a fully equipped kitchen boasting Wolf appliances and a dining table comfortably seating eight. Ensuite bathrooms feature Diptyque amenities and the beds are dressed in fine Frette linens.
Club access is reserved for only the top-level suites at The Ritz-Carlton, Rancho Mirage. This includes access to a dedicated concierge, a private Club Lounge lined with original artworks and an endless rotation of food and beverage offerings, from breakfast to signature drinks. There are also a host of other perks such as preferential tee times at JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa Golf Club’s two Ted Robinson-designed 18-hole championship golf courses, just a few miles away.

What separates the property's suites from anything else in the region?
The resort offers 16 suites ranging from Executive Suites to The Ritz-Carlton Suite. In addition to the resort suites, there are another 16 Residential Villas. What separates all of these suite offerings is our guests can choose from being in the main resort or separate in the Villas should they wish to have additional space and their own private chef's kitchen. Most suites offer sprawling views of the Palm Springs valley, and no other resort has this setting with these views, and many include Club Lounge access.

The Ritz-Carlton, Rancho Mirage
Surrounded by the picturesque Santa Rosa Mountain Range, nearby Palm Springs and Coachella Valley The Ritz-Carlton, Rancho Mirage is a welcome oasis in the middle of California’s desert.
The resort was recently refurbished with a reimagined lobby and social areas, each decked out in a style that embodies California cool while staying true to that classic Ritz-Carlton style. Making the most of the state’s enviable climate are two outdoor pools (including one adults-only pool) with an uber-cool pool bar serving cocktails and light bites. For something more substantial, head to The Edge Steakhouse for prime cuts and premium wines, or the State Fare Bar & Kitchen for locally inspired dishes.
If it's R&R you’re after, book in at The Ritz-Carlton Spa – it has 16 treatment rooms, plunge pools, yoga and meditation spaces, and a full-service boutique. A state-of-the-art fitness center cinches the deal.
Guest rooms and suites have also been revamped and now exude a sleek minimalist style. Expect subtle neutral color palettes, sumptuous linens, thoughtful in-room amenities and impressive views to the mountains beyond.
