Splash House Weekend 1

Three hotels, three pools, one very good weekend in Palm Springs. Splash House turns the desert into a sprawling dayclub that somehow never feels like it's trying too hard — the lineups lean deep house and disco, the crowds are relaxed, and the late-night sets at the after venue go until you're ready to go back to your pool. Weekend 1 sets the tone for the summer in a city built for exactly this kind of thing. August in the Coachella Valley is brutally hot and completely worth it.
