With a reputation that nearly outshines its star-studded history the present day L’Horizon Resort and Spa’s is a destination of distinction, old-Hollywood glamour and infinite style. The sprawling 3-acre compound is enclosed with privacy hedges and encircled by the nearby mountains. From its semi-hidden entrance, a cut in the tall front hedge, visitors enter a rarified enclave that mixes the elegance of famous Palm Springs architecture with warm and modernistic environs. Originally designed in 1952 by esteemed architect William F. Cody his work at L’Horizon is considered one of the finest examples of Mid-Century architecture on the West Coast. This bungalow style resort was commissioned by television producer, oil tycoon and hotelier Jack Wrather to be a getaway for himself and his wife and their esteem Hollywood pals. In its glory guest included Betty Grable, Marilyn Monroe, presidents, and international luminaries…If only those palm trees could talk.

Today an air of exclusivity still prevails. Everything is at least two notches above the anticipated at L’Horizon, from the beautiful landscaping, excellent, efficient and warm service to the design and amenities in the guest bungalows, which include spacious bathrooms and outdoor showers. Sculptural palms, hedges, cacti and magnificent succulents, punctuate the fine lines of the buildings, walkways and pool.
