Your Day at Raffles

Arise to a fresh and bountiful "Australian-Style" breakfast - a healthy favorite among our guests. Just squeeze orange juice, delicious berries and melon, yogurt, granola, pastries and homemade bread, plus our own Raffles blend of coffee. Mingle with your fellow guests, or read the paper at your leisure. You'll start your day off right with this most pleasurable ritual in our pool side lanai.

We offer our guests arrangements for tennis, bicycling, and golf just minutes from the hotel. And shopping in and around Palm Springs is legendary. While staying at Raffles, you can fill your day with as much or as little activity as you care to. But we find that most of our guests rarely venture outside the hotel.

Our motto reads Relax to the Max and you will - Read, get a massage, swim bask in the sun on comfy padded lounges, nap in a shady hammock, float on a raft, soak in the hot tub, meet new friends or reaffirm a romance. At Raffles, you can do all of these things and you'll feel you're a million miles away from the stresses of your daily life.

As the sun starts to go down and the colors of our spectacular mountain views begin to transform to pinks and purples, join us for liquid refreshments and tasty hors d'oeuvres. Toast a thoroughly relaxing day spent Raffles style.

For dinner, choose to stay in and create your own gourmet fantasy. Use our fully-equipped state-of-the-art outdoor barbeque and cooking center under the covered lanai. Or allow us to make dinner reservations at one of Palm Springs' favorite restaurants.

And as for nights at Raffles, you'll feel the warm evening breeze and hear it rustle the palm trees, take on last dip in the pool or the spa before you tumble into bed for a restful night's sleep. The perfect end to the perfect day at Raffles.
