Romance in Korakia!
07.22.11
Korakia Pensione in Palm Springs is the kind of romantic hotel that you really don’t want anyone to know about—its popularity could spoil its private oasis in the desert vibe.
It’s the best kept secret for people in OC who want to get away from everything, but still be close to home. It’s no surprise that is was named one of the “sexiest hotels in America” given its Moroccan/Mediterranean-inspired ambience.
Once behind the keyhole-shaped entrance carved Moorish wooden double doors, you’ll find several buildings, villas and pools. It’s a romantic respite where you can enjoy a complimentary breakfast, book a spa treatment, relax by pool in the day, or by lantern and fire pits at night.
Come here to escape TV’s and phones (free wi-fi), relax on an outdoor day bed, read books and watch classic movies on an outdoor screen, and soak up the desert sun, enjoy afternoon Moroccan tea service, a break from reality that should reenergize you. All of Korakia Pensione’s studios, rooms, and suites are loaded with charm with white linens, handmade furniture, antiques, wood beamed ceilings, kitchens and patios or balconies.
It’s best to chose your favorite room online here. You can view floor plans and amenities such as the romantic Naish House, a1930's villa with wood burning fireplace, dining room, full kitchen, stone bathtub, and a private outdoor shower; to the Marrakech Suite, a roomy upper-level suite with spectacular views of the San Jacinto Mountains mountains, pool and courtyard. beamed ceilings, kitchens. Korakia offers complimentary yoga classes on the weekends, as well as complimentary bikes to tour downtown Palm Springs. The hotel is close enough to walk to restaurants and other entertainment.
