Palm Springs
We have so much to say about Palm Springs, we devoted an entire feature to the ahh-inducing oasis. It's a toss up on where to stay between the Colony Palms Hotel or the Parker, all depending on what you're after. Either way, this town has way more to offer than mere festival fodder.

Sip: Las Casuelas Terraza, 222 South Palm Canyon Drive (near East Arenas Road); 760-325-2794.
