The Ritz-Carlton, Rancho Mirage is set high above Palm Springs in the Santa Rosa Mountains, with broad desert views and a strong sense of retreat from the Coachella Valley below. Low-rise architecture, terraces and fire pits make the most of the arid landscape, while rooms and suites are arranged around mountain, valley and resort views. The spa, pools, Edge Steakhouse and State Fare Bar & Kitchen give the property a relaxed desert-resort rhythm, pairing Ritz-Carlton service with a distinctly Californian outdoor lifestyle.
