Villa Royale

Quaint boutique hotel full of vintage charm! Great breakfast in the mornings.

We had a marvelous time staying at this beautiful resort. We were upgraded to a fantastic room with a pool right outside our door. We spent a lot of time at the main pool which offered a delightful atmosphere and a beautiful menu that was above and beyond. Try the grilled artichokes. Dinner at Del Ray was special. We extended our stay as it was so nice to relax another day.

Our daughter and son-in-law were staying there and we came down for a night to visit them. It was such a great little resort. Very mid-century modern, comfortable beds, friendly staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The service and amenities were really nice. The pool area was lovely and we loved the heated pool.

Villa Royale is one of those rare places that feels like a true escape the moment you arrive. Tucked away in Palm Springs, it blends vintage charm with modern luxury in a way that feels effortless. The Spanish‑inspired architecture, lush landscaping, and intimate courtyards create an atmosphere that’s both serene and full of character.

The rooms are spacious, stylish, and thoughtfully curated. Every detail feels intentional — from the cozy bedding to the artistic decor — giving the space a boutique warmth that makes it easy to settle in. The property also shines in its pet‑friendly approach. The staff treats four‑legged guests with the same care and enthusiasm as their humans, and the amenities make traveling with a pet feel seamless rather than stressful.

The pool area is a highlight, offering a peaceful retreat perfect for lounging with a cocktail. The on‑site restaurant and bar deliver fresh, flavorful dishes and beautifully crafted drinks that encourage you to linger. And then there are the nightly fresh‑baked cookies — a small gesture that somehow becomes a cherished ritual. It’s the kind of touch that makes the place feel personal.

Another charming detail: the collection of books available to borrow. Whether you want something to flip through by the pool or a novel to unwind with in your room, it adds a cozy, home‑away‑from‑home feeling that sets Villa Royale apart.

What truly elevates the experience is the staff. They’re warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in making your stay special. Their pet‑friendly attitude, thoughtful recommendations, and easygoing hospitality create an environment that feels both elevated and welcoming.

If you’re looking for a getaway that’s stylish, intimate, and full of heart, Villa Royale is an exceptional choice. It’s the kind of place you leave already planning your next visit.

The facilities are beautifully decorated in mid century modern style. The attention to details and upkeep of the property make it a relaxing sanctuary. There staff sweetly has a bottle of champagne and a sweet note for our anniversary upon our arrival. The food….omg….so good! We absolutely loved our stay here.

Love the privacy and overall feel of this resort.

Amazing little breakfast.

Villa Royale was a wonderful place to stay. The decor was beautiful, creative and unique. We loved the staff! The ambience was lovely.

Upgraded us to king room poolside. All staff super friendly and helpful. Very quiet. No one under 21 can stay here. Pool was awesome as was pool side bar and service. Morning continental breakfast included with room was nice with mimosas included. Well located and a private feel to it. 2 nite stay went perfectly.

This is a gem! It has the coolest vibe. Fantastic service and the whole tone is set from sun up to sun down.
Let me set the vibe for you. You wake and walk out of your room (ours was so well done), walk by one of the fire pits past the pool to the outdoor breakfast by the fire. Sit there or take it back to your room. Breakfast spread hits 10/10.
Grab a chair and hang by the pool, enjoy chair side service or just the jug of cold water. Sun going down head across the pool to the hot tub, or up to the rooftop patio to watch it fall. Fab Onsite restaurant maybe and then settle in with fresh cookies at 8.
Such a vibe - think Boho Chic
It’s got such a great guest community feel since it’s so quaint without being in your face. Great parking. Quiet at nighttime for sleep. Awesome playlists. Great art all around. Strong WiFi. Lovely neighborhood. Walk to Bar Cecil.
Comfortable beds. Nice linen. Clean.

We asked for a room by the main pool but there are cute little nooks of rooms that are more private. Eventhough we were right there we felt our room was very private with a loving room, bedroom, bath and a back patio (we never used) chairs out front and in back. Room #12 it was a great choice.
I struggled choosing this hotel/location vs the Cottage House and The Thompson and we have no retreats on this trip with my husband. Villa Royale will forever hold a special place in my heart. It was a great pre holiday rush trip in early December.

I absolutely love this place. It has the coolest vibe and the friendliest staff.
