VACANCY: The Dinah 2009

Sanders! A late cancellation has provided you procrastinators with a rare chance to get in on one of Palm Springs' most famous rites of Spring--the fabulous Dinah, also known as the Kraft Nabisco aka The Dinah Shore. For you golfers, this tournament is a MAJOR, making the competition fierce and the prize one worth fighting for. This is excellent golf so why not enjoy it at the equally excellent Coral Sands, the finest vintage motel in Palm Springs.
.
If you've never been before, this is your chance! Gorgeous heated pool, gas BBQ, fabulous sight lines into the mountains and near to everything the valley has to offer. Why wait? Pick up the phone and give yourself and your partner a great weekend of golf, relaxation, top notch restaurants, terrific shopping, and wonderful sunshine!
.
We have king and queen rooms available; the kings have full kitchens and the queens a coffee set up and mini fridge. First time in Palm Springs? You can't find a better introduction than Ruby Montana's Coral Sands.
