Palm Springs Yacht Club

Palm Springs Yacht Club is the hotel spa at the Parker Palm Springs, a free-standing wing of the resort dedicated to facials, massage, wraps and reflexology. It operates as a luxury-tier hotel spa with reservation required and is geared toward adults and couples rather than families or drop-in day-trippers.

Arriving guests get a robe, flip flops, a locker key and access to one of 15 private treatment rooms, where each session is built around personal preference rather than a fixed menu. The signature 90-minute treatment, Aloe There, Sunshine, runs $300 and pairs a cucumber-aloe facial with a foot massage and full-body aloe wrap. Couples treatments are offered for those booking together, and packages combine massage, facials, manicures and scalp rituals into longer sessions priced from the low hundreds up to over a thousand dollars for multi-service bookings.

The spa runs Monday through Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., with first treatments starting at 10 a.m., and expands its Saturday and Sunday hours to 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., with first appointments at 9 a.m. Same-day bookings go through a direct phone call rather than the online system. Onsite parking is available, and the property is set up for private, self-contained visits rather than shared lounges or public bathing areas, with amenities centered on individual suites and a relaxation lounge.
