Villa Rosa spawns intimacy inn Palm Springs

The Villa Rosa Inn, located just off East Palm Canyon Drive in Palm Springs, CA, has intimacy stamped all over it. For starters, unlike any Palm Springs motels or hotels in the same price range ($79-$149), this secluded property offers just 6 guest rooms and suites.

The limited rooms, the idyllic setting, the sweeping views of the mountains towering above tall swaying palms and the heavy shrubbery which ring the grounds, the heated outdoor pool with deck chairs and poolside dining, the brilliant weather - it all adds up to very, very intimate getaway Palm Springs vacations.

To top it off, they offer you a complimentary breakfast poolside. You can spend the day relaxing, taking dips, enjoying a good book and watching the birds hum and twitter in the shrubs. You can set out on excursions to check out the Palm Springs attractions, play some golf, and do some shopping. Evenings are made even more romantic by the fine restaurants of the Coachella Valley.

All the guest rooms and suites have poolside views, and are equipped with King or queen sized beds, remote control color TV, refrigerators, phones, quality linens, bath & pool towels, and morning paper. Fully appointed kitchens are also available.

You have a choice between a guest room with King bed, another one with the King bed and a private patio, a studio with a King bed and full kitchen, a Junior Suite with a Queen bed and full kitchen, and two 1-Bedroom Suites with King bed, full kitchen and a private patio. The rates vary based on season and preference of guest room/suite.

A 2-night minimum stay (3-nights for holidays) is required.
