We’ve added the Days Inn by Wyndham Palm Springs and The Dunes Palm Springs Hotel as overflow hotels for the conference. Please see below for more information.
Please help us out by making your reservation at the official PAMLA Conference Hotel, the Margaritaville Resort Palm Springs, via our PAMLA reservation link (above and below). In order to receive our many conference meeting rooms at a reasonable price, we have to sell out our block of PAMLA guest rooms at the Margaritaville Resort Palm Springs. So, please use our PAMLA – Margaritaville Resort Palm Springs link to make your reservation, in order to help us to make this and future PAMLA conferences possible. Alternatively, if you need to call the hotel, please mention that you are part of the PAMLA group (and ask for the special PAMLA rate).

To make your reservation at the Margaritaville Resort Palm Springs at the special PAMLA rate ($169 plus tax and $20 resort fee), use this link:
Should you need more than one King bed, there will be a small additional charge. Standard King rooms seem to be sold out, but Deluxe King rooms should end up costing you approximately the same amount.
If you have any questions, or are having a tough time getting a room, please email PAMLA Executive Director Craig Svonkin: [email protected].
NOTE: The Margaritaville Resort has changed the way they are listing prices on their website and our PAMLA portal. So, the $169 plus $20 resort fee plus taxes and fees (for a deluxe King room) might now show up as a total price per night of approximately $220 per night, including fees. But that’s not a real change in the price, just in the way they are advertising the room price ahead of you making a reservation. Requesting a room with two beds, or a suite, will cost you a bit more per night. Call or email Craig Svonkin if you cannot make a reservation: 626-354-7526 or [email protected].
NOTE: At the moment, most rooms are temporarily sold out at the Margaritaville; watch the link, since rooms at the PAMLA rate may reappear if people cancel their hotel reservation.
The 2024 PAMLA Conference is being held at the lovely 4-star Margaritaville Resort Palm Springs. The Margaritaville Resort Palm Springs is a tropical desert oasis in the heart of the Palm Springs Uptown Design District. The hotel has a classic retro Hollywood vibe, not surprising given that it was formerly the Riviera Hotel, a favorite hangout for Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr. Cher, and other Hollywood stars. The hotel combines a chic, mid-century Palm Springs aesthetic with Margaritaville’s casual-deluxe island feel.
Just minutes from downtown Palm Springs and the Palm Springs airport, and a reasonable car ride (about 75 minutes) from the Ontario, California airport, the Margaritaville Resort includes a variety of guest room types, two lovely resort pools, six dining outlets, the soothing St. Somewhere Spa (Palm Springs’ largest resort spa), and the Margaritaville Conference Center, the site of our PAMLA conference (and thus just a brief walk from your hotel room). Plus, the brief walk or Uber or Lyft ride to downtown Palm Springs makes the resort the perfect place to stay for our conference, plus a scholarly vacation in lovely, sunny Palm Springs.
The Margaritaville Palm Springs Resort hotel rooms come equipped with air-conditioning, complimentary Wi-Fi in rooms, flat-screen TVs, coffee makers, safes, and ironing boards. You will also receive, if you make your reservation as part of our PAMLA block, a discounted rate ($169 plus tax), discounted resort fee ($20 a night vs. the normal $46 nightly resort fee), free parking at the resort, and fitness center access.
Even if you live in the area, please consider making this PAMLA conference a Scholarly Staycation by staying for a night or three at the Margaritaville Palm Springs Resort. By staying at the conference hotel you will get to fully participate in the warmth, camaraderie, intellectual stimulation, and culture and arts of PAMLA 2024 while also experiencing all that Palm Springs has to offer! Without even using a car, you can walk or take a brief Uber or Lyft ride to various restaurants, bars, shopping centers, movie theaters, local attractions, and the Palm Springs Art Museum.
Should you wish to reserve your room for additional nights outside of our PAMLA block, you may need to call the Margaritaville directly, asking for a room reservation at the PAMLA rate: (760) 327-8311. Be sure to identify yourself as part of PAMLA so as to receive our special PAMLA rate.
