A Palm Springs classic in the Historic Tennis Club neighborhood

It has 18 gorgeous and private villas, each with a private patio featuring a clawfoot tub, fire pit, and built-in bench. There is a sparkling pool and jacuzzi, right next to Whispers Spa, known for its calming facials, massages, and body treatments. Azúcar, the on-site restaurant, overlooks the pool, and provides delicious and modern dining. Guests looking for an intriguing cocktail and great views can head up to Sugar High, the rooftop bar just steps away from Azúcar.
A staple of the Historic Tennis Club neighborhood, La Serena Villas was originally built in 1933. It was redeveloped as a luxury hotel in 2016 by architect May Sung, and since 2023, La Serena Villas has been part of the Kirkwood Collection portfolio of hotels. Founder and CEO Alex Kirkwood said it’s the perfect property to join the roster, as it has long been a “renowned Palm Springs destination for guests and locals alike,” offering incredible stays and memorable experiences.
“With this new addition, we are not just adding rooms; we are crafting a haven where every guest’s needs are met with exceptional service from the moment of arrival to the last farewell,” Kirkwood said.
