pool party at parker palm springs

Please join Millennials in Travel at Parker Palm Springs for a cheeky-chic summer sendoff at the legendary Gene Autry Pool. On Wednesday, August 27 from 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM, dive into an afternoon of retro glam, playful poolside vibes, and stylish industry connection. Guests are encouraged to arrive in swimwear - a 2-night stay in a Parker Palm Springs Villa will be awarded to the best-dressed attendee!

The Parker Palm Springs is the modern icon in Palm Springs; known for its blend of mid-century modern design with a retro-chic and whimsical flair. The hotel boasts a distinctive design by Jonathan Adler, often described as "eccentric glamour" or "cheeky hedonistic luxury". Offering 144 uniquely styled rooms, suites, and villas, exceptional dining includes local favorite, "Norma's"; "mister parker's" serving classic French fare; "Mrs. Parker's", the world's smallest restaurant; Counter Reformation, a Parisian-inspired wine bar and "speakeasy"; the "Lemonade Stand", a poolside spot for refreshing lemonade inspired cocktails and finally the "Mini Bar", a jewel-box-like bar perfect for starting or ending the evening. The signature Spa (Palm Springs Yacht Club) is renowned for the personalized treatments and guests are welcomed with a shot of cucumber-infused vodka. With two red clay tennis courts, two new PADEL courts, croquet lawn, pétanque courts, giant chess, hammocks, bicycles, guests can enjoy this 5-star resort for endless days.
