Korakia Pensione Hotel: A Timeless Retreat in the Heart of Palm Springs

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Palm Springs, Korakia Pensione emerges as a distinguished 3-star hotel, offering a unique blend of Mediterranean and Moroccan architectural brilliance. This exquisite property not only stands out for its stunning design but also boasts close proximity to the city's bustling Palm Canyon Drive, placing guests within walking distance of premier shopping, dining, and entertainment options.

    This place suits me perfectly with its lovely heated pool, caring staff, and relaxing spa. I remember how helpful they were to my old parents during my first stay. Breakfast is delicious too! Can't wait to return for Christmas.

    outdoor swimming pool
    luxurious spa treatments
    limited shaded parking

    I loved relaxing by the beautiful outdoor swimming pool and indulging in the luxurious spa treatments during my stay. The only downside was the limited shaded parking, which made my car a bit too hot after a long day. Definitely try the delicious breakfast options available each morning! 🌞

    uncomfortable experience

    We had a fantastic getaway with friends! The atmosphere is super relaxed, and we loved biking around the stylish neighborhood. The grounds are beautiful, with cozy firepits and movie nights. Just a heads-up, it can get a bit noisy with nearby neighbors, but we didn't mind. Definitely recommend!

    One morning, I felt a bit uncomfortable when we were asked to refrain from taking photos at breakfast. It made the experience less enjoyable, especially after I brought my camera to capture memories.

    charming retreat

    Couples seeking a relaxing retreat

    The warm pool in the evenings felt incredible and the breakfasts were to die for with so many tasty healthy options to choose from it was like a hidden gem. We loved the semi-private courtyard outside our room with the hammock where we could unwind and the vibe of the place just had this charming exotic touch that really set the mood.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap but given the experience it felt reasonable enough.

    would come here again

    The Queen Studio, Tangier was spacious with a living area, kitchenette, and cozy seating. Outdoor movie nights added fun, and the daily breakfast featured fresh pastries and organic juices. Heated pools kept us swimming even late at night. The staff went above and beyond, with chocolate treats in the evening and morning coffee on the patio.

    A Hidden Gem for Relaxation and Beauty

    Our stay was a peaceful escape filled with stunning garden pathways and cozy nooks. Enjoyed a delightful evening by the pool with complimentary chocolates! For future guests, inquire about the restaurant's schedule to avoid delays with food orders. The Moroccan Suite offered great space, just wish for more privacy!

    serene atmosphere
    beautiful grounds
    charming decor
    noise disturbances
    lack of privacy

    My stay at Korakia Pensione was pleasant and rejuvenating. The serene atmosphere and beautifully maintained grounds offered a perfect backdrop for my work-related retreat. The Moroccan and Mediterranean decor exuded a charming ambiance, complemented by thoughtful details such as the vinyl record player in my room. The staff was accommodating and the breakfast, featuring freshly made options, was a delightful way to start each day.

    Encountered some noise disturbances due to other guests.

    enchanting ambiance
    friendly staff
    spotty wifi
    quirky room

    What a unique boutique hotel! The ambiance was enchanting, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The room was cozy but had some quirks, like low lamps. The only downside? The wifi was spotty during our stay. Overall, a fabulous experience worth revisiting.

    slow wifi
    cancelled event

    The grilled dishes nearby, especially at Las Casuelas Terraza, were a taste sensation. The room itself was super cozy, and the heated pool was the cherry on top for some late-night relaxation.

    A bit of a bummer when the wifi was slow and the Wednesday sound bath was a no-show, but I still soaked up the vibes like a true Palm Springs local.

    More thoughtful dining options for seniors would help.

    serene gardens
    vintage record player
    cleanliness issues

    The serene gardens create a lush environment that instantly calms your mind. You'll find unique vintage record players in the rooms, adding a nostalgic touch that's perfect for winding down after a long day.

    Despite the picturesque setting, I encountered several inconveniences during my stay. The food ordering process was painfully slow, often leaving guests waiting well over an hour without clear updates. In the Ionean Bungalow, the stove was non-functional, and although I reported it, I was told someone who could help was on lunch. The thin walls allowed noise from outside to intrude, making it hard to fully relax at times. Also, I wasn’t impressed with the cleanliness of the communal areas, which felt a bit more rundown than the romantic premise suggests, including some debris in the pool area that could’ve been cleaned more regularly.
