Saguaro Palm Springs is Joie de Vivre’s first luxury hotel in the area, this multi-coloured boutique hotel opened in February 2012, and was designed by Stamberg Aferiat Architecture to reflect colours of desert wildflowers. The luxury hotel is located in Palm Springs, California, USA.
According to the architects: “The luxury Palm Springs hotel is centrally located at the corner of Sunrise and East Palm Canyon Drive. This is boutique hotel company Joie de Vivre’s first property in Palm Springs, and the second in an expanding collection of Saguaro hotels, following the successful opening of The Saguaro Scottsdale in 2011.
“Designed to reflect the colourful vibrant spirit of the Southwest, the bold colour palette is the work of renowned architects Peter Stamberg and Paul Aferiat, of New York-based Stamberg Aferiat Architecture, who have infused the property with hues that reflect the indigenous flowers of the surrounding desert region.
“The three-storey structure, originally constructed in 1977, was a Holiday Inn, it now features an expansive pool located within a lush center courtyard, and an innovative restaurant run by James Beard award-winning Iron Chef Jose Garces, who also oversees food & beverage at The Saguaro Scottsdale.”
