Weather and Climate in Palm Springs

The big draw in Palm Springs is the winter weather. Imagine golfing in your shirt sleeves in January! It gets hot in the summer of course, and vacationers stay away in droves. But, as they say, "it's a dry heat" that many find comforting, including my 81 year old mother.

Planning on a Winter Holiday in Palm Springs

You will need to plan ahead to find the best lodging in Winter in Palm Springs. Despite almost unrestricted building in the area, the best properties have limited availability during the peak season between the middle of October and May, with the most desirable period occuring from January to March.

Reserve your Palm Springs lodging in advance.
