Best breakfast place

Best real French pastries and bakeries in Palm Springs. Great for breakfast to go. The bread is so delicious. A little bit of France in the desert.

The Museum Trail in Palm Springs may only be 1.7 miles out-and-back and climb less than 1,000 feet, but this hard, uphill hike tests even experienced explorers with its steep incline and rocky ground (thus the strict no-dog, no-bike, and no-horse policy). The trail begins at the back corner of the Palm Springs Art Museum parking lot and scales approximately 0.87 miles up the side of the San Jacinto Mountains — with breathtaking views of the city unfolding just 10 minutes in. The path levels off at a nice resting point with picnic tables, where the beauty of Greater Palm Springs — from the palm tree canopies to the windmills to the bright green golf courses — opens up in all directions. Though you’ll be tempted to park at the museum, that lot is only for museum visitors; there are plenty of spaces in the free parking garage across the street or along the paved roads themselves. Refuel after your climb at one of the many restaurants and coffee shops that line downtown. Total Distance: 1.7 miles Level: Difficult

Palm Springs’ reputation as an architectural paradise precedes it. So, the chances that you'll live in a Palm Springs neighborhood with very eye-pleasing houses are very high.
Facilidad para moverse por la casa

You will need a vehicle to get around

This isn’t the kind of place where you can walk across town when you need to be somewhere, especially if you’ll be living in Palm Springs in the summer. Not only do you need to have a vehicle to get to places, but you’ll also need a preferably indoor place to keep it so that the interior doesn’t become an oven under the scorching hot sun.
Antes de que te vayas

The water quality is not the best!

Unfortunately, you can’t just drink a glass of water straight from the tap while living in Palm Springs. The water in this desert town is very corrosive due to high mineral content. Since water’s being pulled from reservoirs deep under the ground, you’ll need to drink from water bottles or use the filtered water I provide.
