Palm Springs with Jamie Haley

In this episode of The Gomes Guide, I chat with Jamie Haley, a creative marketing and brand leader who lives part-time in Palm Springs, about everything that makes this desert destination so much more than a retro retiree town. Jamie shares her favorite places to stay (hello, rooftop pool and mid-century suites), what to do during shoulder season, and the hidden gems you’ll only hear about from someone who truly lives the lifestyle.

We talk pickleball, pool floats, the best Bloody Mary in town, and where to go for sushi that passes the San Francisco snob test. She also lets us in on two of her favorite under-the-radar experiences: a sound bath inside the Integratron, and late-night stargazing in Joshua Tree.

Plus:

• Where to stay if you're going kid-free vs. group getaway
• Jamie’s perfect Palm Springs day
• A local pianist with his own Walk of Fame star
• Her favorite shop for quirky gifts
• Tips for escaping the desert heat (without missing the views)

Whether you're planning a long weekend or a low-season escape, this episode will give you the inspiration (and itinerary) to do Palm Springs like a local.
