Located just outside Palm Springs, the La Quinta Resort dates back to 1926, when it was a private getaway for Hollywood celebrities. Today, the resort is still a perfect refuge from daily stress, and offers services to promote wellness as well. Book a stay at the La Quinta's WellMax Center for Preventive Medicine for a complete health analysis, or enjoy one of the private whirlpool baths, inhalation rooms, steam rooms, or 4 open air signature Spa Celestial Showers. Take a Zumba class, or check out Mind and Movement Yoga. Whether its beauty services you seek, or just the perfect spot to relax, you'll find it here at the classic La Quinta Resort.
The La Quinta Spa has groups of Spanish-style casitas for overnight stays, and the outdoor relaxation garden is a fantastic focal point, with its outdoor wading fountain, fireplace, and cooling mist system. The Spa has a wide array of treatments, from the Desert Healing Waters, which boost circulation and help detox the body, to the La Quinta Custom Facial, which uses active ingredients, such as vitamin C, coenzyme Q10, fruit acids, and the tropical plant "sleepy morning," to repair and restore skin. If you're seeking something more exciting, celebrate with a Champagne Revitalization Facial, designed to stimulate cellular metabolism, or try a Desert Lomi Lomi, which combines the techniques of ancient Hawaii's healers with desert aromas, and releases a flow of energy to invigorate and restore. Aside from great treatments, guests to La Quinta can venture off during the day to the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway; a large cable car gondola, which rises to the top of Mt. San Jacinto, over 8,516 feet high, in just 15 minutes. La Quinta Resort & Club also offers seven restaurants to enjoy, serving everything from contemporary American cuisine at Twenty 6 to the innovative seafood of AZUR.
