Palm Springs, located about 114 miles east of Los Angeles, is deemed a desert oasis with a cosmopolitan twist, offering visitors an opportunity to dine in world class restaurants, lounge at legendary boutique hotels, and enjoy 360 days of sunshine and starry nights. But what makes this desert playground a purrfect Petspot? The Viceroy Palm Springs – the most unique spa resort in Palm Springs…and it’s pet-friendly!

Nestled around three courtyards with pools and manicured gardens, the Viceroy Palm Springs has defined the ultimate spa resort experience since it’s opening in the 1930s. Luxuriously updated to reflect the Hollywood Regency style popular during the desert’s original glamour era, it features a full array of lavish accommodations, amenities and services.

But what good is luxury if it can’t be shared with your best friend? The Viceroy Palm Springs offers pet services that allow you to bring your beloved pooches along. Upon arrival, Fido will receive his/her personalized take-home doggy dish, freshly baked signature dog biscuits, a personalized “Welcome” card from the hotel’s General Manager and a doggie sanitary kit.

The Viceroy Palm Springs also offers seasonal pooch pools for added canine comfort during the warm summer months, as well as dog walking and sitting services with advance notice so you can enjoy breakfast in bed or a candlelit dinner while your favorite furry friend gets to strut his stuff for the babysitter!

And while you indulge in the serene indoor and outdoor setting of Estrella Spa, a full service aromatherapy spa offering superlative treatment, dine at charming Citron, the desert’s most distinctive gourmet restaurant, or unwind by any of the three pools, your four-legged friends can relax on the manicured grass.

For the active and athletic, the Viceroy Palm Springs offers a state-of-the-art wellness center, expert yoga training, guided walking and hiking trails and access to Palm Springs’ finest shopping and leading PGA-quality golf courses.

So if you’re in need of a little pet-friendly, pawsitively purrfect pampering, pack up your pooch and get ready to live like Hollywood royalty…in an oasis filled with sweet indulgence!
