La Serena Villas, A Kirkwood Collection Hotel (Adults Only) - A boutique spa resort with private villa patios, farm-to-table dining, and mountain views

Located in Downtown Palm Springs, this historic 1933 property spans over an acre of landscaped grounds featuring 18 secluded villas. Each villa at La Serena Villas provides a private patio equipped with a clawfoot tub, fire pit, and built-in seating. The on-site Azúcar restaurant, led by former lawyer Joane Garcia Colson, specializes in farm-to-table Mediterranean and Hispanic cuisine with extensive vegetarian options. The property includes Whispers Spa offering couples treatments, a rooftop bar with cocktails, and a pool area. The villas feature kitchenettes, king-size beds, and spacious bathrooms. This Palm Springs hotel sits two blocks from Palm Canyon Drive's restaurants and boutiques, near the Palm Springs Art Museum with its sculpture gardens and theater.

Pros

Each villa includes a private outdoor spa tub and fire pit

Rooftop bar offers 360-degree views of the San Jacinto Mountains

Former lawyer heads farm-to-table restaurant with vegetarian focus

ADA-compliant facilities throughout the property

Cons

Adults-only property not suitable for families with children

Limited to 18 villas, which may mean reduced availability

“La Serena Villas caters specifically to adults, creating a peaceful Palm Springs escape, close to downtown yet insulated within private villa courtyards with fire pits and soaking tubs; it's a setting designed for couples seeking intimacy and quiet. The thoughtful touches, like delivered breakfast baskets and spa treatments, enhance the sense of pampered seclusion. I think the result is a refined boutique experience.”
