A peaceful place to reset, reconnect and dream for the year ahead
There’s something special about escaping to Palm Springs for a few quiet days in the sun; especially when it’s time to dream, plan and make resolutions for a brand new year. Ryan and I recently sneaked away The Lucille Palm Springs for our 2026 planning retreat, and it truly was the perfect place to rest, reset and be inspired.
That was ours Second time at Lucilleand it’s safe to say it has become an annual tradition for us. There is simply something About this place… The calm energy, the attention to detail, the really friendly staff who make you feel at home here.
Nestled in the heart of downtown, The Lucille is a true boutique gem. It is quiet, peaceful and beautifully designed, with mid-century charm and thoughtful details that ensure every corner feels made for you. From the quiet pool terrace to the cozy, sun-drenched rooms, everything invites you to relax and take a deep breath.
