Parker Palm Springs gives group events a new meaning with fresh takes on business and corporate events. Whether it’s off-site workshops and sales meetings or professional conferences and trade events, planners choosing to host at Parker will be far from disappointed. It is also Palm Springs’ largest property at 13 acres in size.
If you’re hosting a larger conference or event, consider a full-property buyout. There are two options for this: planners can book all 144 guest rooms, while leaving the Palm Springs Yacht Club and restaurants available to outside guests; or, buyout everything—the rooms, the restaurants, and the yacht club, for exclusive use by attendees only. For more traditional events, host in any one of Parker’s on-site event spaces, including a ballroom and garden suite.
What’s more, Parker Palm Springs offers a tailored menu of exclusive activities to add on to group event itineraries. Consider an exclusive champagne reception at Frey House II, a private after-hours tour and cocktails at the Palm Springs Art Museum, picnics in the on-site gardens, food and wine pairings with Parker’s executive chef, and more.
If attendees are looking to relax after a day of networking, consider adding spa treatments to the itinerary. Parker Palm Springs’ spa offers 15 private treatment rooms. The menu of treatments includes facials, wraps, reflexology, massages, and more. Packages available include Ahoy Mate!, which offers tailor-made services for groups of seven or more; Yachtsman’s Voyage, which includes a tailored massage, classic facial, and classic manicure; and several others.
There are six on-site culinary destinations to appease attendee’s appetites after a long conference. Norma’s, the open-air terrace restaurant, serves breakfast all day and night, from poached eggs and fruit to French toast, waffles, or pancakes. Vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options are also available. For a fine-dining experience, gather for a meal at mister parker’s, which serves epicurean, savory cuisine with personal touches from the chef. If you just want a drink, and small bites, visit Counter Reformation for a notable menu of wines and small-plated delicacies to pair. There is also the on-site mini bar and outdoor lemonade stand.
