"Are you in California or in Bali? It's hard to tell at Talavera Palm Springs, which has a distinctly tropical vibe, thanks in part to bamboo throughout the property, plus antique wood furnishings and colorful textiles. You might even think you're in Morocco in the Kasbah Hacienda, Hawaii in the Puka Hacienda, or Mexico in the Coba Hacienda—these are just three of the 11 wanderlust-inspired suites. But then you see the olive and lemon trees and remember you're right in Coachella Valley and that the downtown neighborhood is just a block away. But this is not a Palm Springs party hotel. There are two pools, but you won't find DJs blasting music here. Instead, one gets full sun throughout the day for sunbathing, while the other is shaded for those seeking a quiet place to lounge."
