Created by visionary Los Angeles architect H.L. “Hank” Gogerty back in the 1950s, the resort was then named the Desert Air Hotel & Resort and it was created by transforming 320 acres of barren desert into an ideal sanctuary, complete with a private airstrip. In the late 1970s, Desert Air made way for today’s luxurious Omni Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa. From its Rat Pack era beginnings to a stunning 21st-century renaissance, Rancho Las Palmas remains a timeless classic for today’s discerning traveler.
