“For an authentic slice of Rat Pack history, stay at Frank sinatra’s former Palm Springs residence. The Twin Palms estate, designed by E. Stewart Williams in 1947, was Sinatra and Ava Gardner’s hideaway. The crack in the bathroom sink (the result of Sinatra throwing a champagne bottle in a rage) remains, but the rest of the house has been lovingly restored with vintage designer furnishings. Mod cons, such as Wi-Fi and iPod connectivity both inside and outside, bring it bang up to date. The pool – Sinatra’s design – is shaped like a grand piano.
