Casa Cody
Historic cottages and studios set among citrus groves with two pools, a short walk from downtown Palm Springs.
The verdict
Pick a traveller type to re-weight the scores and re-rank the rooms around what you actually care about.
Casa Cody combines historic cottages and studios with a relaxed Southwestern desert aesthetic and plush Parachute linens. The secluded grounds offer two swimming pools, citrus groves, and easy walking access to downtown Palm Springs. However, there is no formal table service dining on property, and rooms placed along the pool perimeter can pick up early morning and late night noise. 116224
