Summit at the Saguaro: Reinvigorate Your Brand

World renowned for stylish hotels, great weather, and stunning views, Palm Springs is the perfect location to connect and reinvigorate. Situated in the Coachella Valley, we are sure to be inspired by the famous midcentury-modern architecture and the beauty of the San Jacinto mountain range. Known as the golf capital of the world, Palm Springs offers a vibrant array of activities from music and film festivals to hot springs, from trendy bars and restaurants, to breathtaking hikes. 

The Palm Springs International Airport is a quick ride to The Saguaro Palm Springs, a colorful boutique hotel in the desert with a buzzing pool scene and lots of local flavor. Designed to reflect the colorful vibrant spirit of the Coachella Valley desert, the property is infused with hues that reflect the indigenous desert flowers.  We’ll enjoy large, colorful rooms with private balconies, an Olympic-sized pool and two hot tubs, free daily yoga, free parking, and free shuttle service to downtown Palm Springs. The Saguaro takes fun and food seriously and is home to uber-popular restaurants, Tinto and El Jefe, both helmed by Iron Chef Jose Garces. 

This year we’re shaking things up! Our retreat-style summit will focus on all things branding. Summit at the Saguaro is our chance to connect with peers, share best practices, and tackle our challenges, no matter where our college is on its branding journey. Join us as we reinvigorate our brands in the creative and inspiring atmosphere that The Saguaro Palm Springs offers.
