We just found our new favorite getaway. I am reluctant to share beacuse others will book room 2 which may limit my choices in the best seasons. But that would be selfish. What a lovely inn. The staff was exceptional. The rooms, beds, decor, amenities were great. Just a calm, serene, relaxing place. Our room 2 had the private spa... More

We decided to take a first trip to Palm Springs in April. This boutique property with a cozy 8 rooms provided a sunny and homey city escape. The resort was reasonably close (a healthy walk) from the main drag, but there are two bicycles available for guests to use and we utilized them for lunch runs often. I thought the... More

Been going back and forth to Palm Springs from the east coast now for over three years, had my regular place, top of the line., but wanted to try a new place, wanted to see if there was a difference, and boy what a difference, the rooms were appointed with the highest quality finishes, great space, great design, and maintained...

We were invited here by friends for a quick getaway. We loved the hotel and needed a few more days there. Will definitely return to this secret place. Great pool, perfect rooms and the happy hour was nice too. Always a great day here.

We had such a nice time at Pura Vida. It's intimate and yet also warm and welcoming. The space is absolutely beautiful. Newly built (or redone), it's very modern, with a desert/southwest feel. The courtyard is so tranquil and stylish, with a large pool and jacuzi/hotub. The rooms all very beautiful. Super comfy bed. Great, bright space. Very cool showers,... More

My partner and I stayed here for 4 nights in January. We were really impressed with this small hotel--it was even nicer than it appeared to be on the internet, and that's unusual. The rooms are big, beautifully and comfortably furnished and immaculately kept. David and his team are very hospitable and warm. It was a bit too cool to... More

Arrived on a Wednesday and we were the only guests in the small 8 room resort (small but very nice). We were treated like kings the entire day and that continued as other guests arrived during the week. The room was top notch with tile every where and a wonderful shower located on the ceiling. Each room has a fireplace... More

When conversation turns to excellent men's hotels in Palm Springs, Pura Vida isn't the first name to come up, or even the second. In fact, before I booked, I didn't really realize it was there, tucked into the corner beside the Hacienda, that grand dame of PS boutique hotels. So they're in good company now. It's the little things, truly,... More

Once again our expectations were exceeded by the staff at Pura Vida for our 3rd stay at this delicious hotel this year! We are addicted to the outstanding service, the beautiful and luxurious room as well as the wonderful pool/spa outdoor area. David, one of the owners, is, as always, a warm, welcoming host. If Mark, the other owner happens... More
