Travel Like a Star - 6 New Year's Getaways
Palm Springs, California: WHY GO? Mild desert weather, world-class spas and vintage shopping are big draws. Teri Hatcher and Kevin Spacey check into the Parker Palm Springs, Johathan Adler's modern-meets Moraccan resort and spa (from $395); Diane Keaton celebrated Christmas with her family in the 1920s Spanish casitas at La Quinta Resort & Club ($310). For more intimate digs try the groovy 18 room Orbit In (from $269), where Lucy Liu stayed.
SEE/DO: Shop for hip, modern finds on North Palm Canyon Drive, as Courtney Cox does. Try the Asian-Austrian cuisine and peach martinis at cozy Johannes. Catch a movie on the lawn at the Viceroy Palm Springs resort. Get a showstopping dress for New Year's eve at Trina Turk's original store.
