Feel At Home
Plan The Ultimate Friends Reunion
Whether you’re planning a reunion with a large group of friends or a small getaway with your inner circle, Korakia is the perfect setting for group escapes. Our expert staff can help you program a full weekend of activities. Or plan for an unstructured getaway and your group can choose their own adventures, relaxation. Korakia’s intimate villas are in the Historic Tennis Club neighborhood, just a short walk away from downtown Palm Springs. So you can feel as sequestered as you like within our villa walls or venture out for the city’s renowned art museums, dining and cocktailing, vintage shopping, hiking, and architectural tours. You can do full buyout of 28 rooms in both villas, or fully take over one side for your own private party: the Mediterranean villa (16 rooms) or Moroccan villa (12)—both with their own distinctive social spaces and heated saltwater pools. Naturally, smaller friend groups are always welcome.Â

We can help arrange architecture tours of landmark neighborhoods like The Movie Colony and Old Las Palmas, and the Annenberg Foundation Trust at Sunnylands; create an itinerary around major draws like the BNP Paribas Open, Modernism Week, or the Palm Springs International Film Festival. Or simply relax with a few days of morning yoga, massages and cocktails by our pools, dinners in one of the historic villas, and relaxing at night with our outdoor vintage movie nights.
