Looking for a more independent stay in Palm Springs? Apartments here put you close to the action-think Downtown, the Uptown Design District, and the airport-while giving you space to spread out. West Racquet Club Art Room, a homestay-style apartment, offers a saltwater pool, a sun terrace, and a 24-hour front desk, minutes from the Aerial Tramway. Alternatively, Mcm Condo Downtown Palm Springs places you right in the city center with mountain views, a full kitchen, and a tennis court, and it's rated Exceptional (9.8/10). Budget-wise, most one-bedroom apartments range from $99 to $220 per night, depending on season and amenities.
Whether you prefer a peaceful retreat like Biarritz-Top Floor 1BR with Views, Pool & Spa (a short walk to downtown) or the family-friendly Private Pool & Mountain Views! with its outdoor pool and BBQ area, you'll find options with free parking, free Wi-Fi, and non-smoking rooms. If you're flying in, Palm Springs International Airport is just 3 km from most listings-choose an apartment with airport shuttle service for extra ease. For first-timers, staying near the Palm Springs Visitor Center or along Palm Canyon Drive gives quick access to the tramway, golf courses, and the convention center. Book early for weekends during Coachella and Modernism Week, as properties fill up fast.
