I’ve stayed here multiple times and it’s a great budget option in palm Springs. Nice pool, good bar and grassy area, good location walking distance to several good food options, and the rooms are like a motel - nothing special or fancy - but they are fine.

We needed a hotel room in town due to our A/C braking down, and didn't want to spend a lot of money. We really enjoyed our stay here! Great price, very quiet, beautiful pool and garden area, nice size room, very comfortable bed, and Josh at the front desk took good care of us, and answered any questions we had. We were even able to check in early which was so great! The bar next to the pool, The Reef has amazing drinks and food! We will definitely be back for another staycation in the future!

Great value for money Resort . Great pool and Hot Tub . Nice accessible pool area with plenty of space and the gardens we’re great . Gives a nice island feel with all the palm trees and greenery . Saw our first hummingbirds enjoying the area which was an experience. Plenty of parking , nice eating spots around and close by . Had a room issue which was sorted very quickly . Shower was a little too powerful if that’s a real issue but we did suffer with water going all over the door . Highly recommend The Reef for both food and drink . Oh And the Tiki mugs .

The resort is in a great location, easy to navigate in and around Palm Springs. Everything was easy with my stay. Minnutes to the city and minutes to the canyon.

If you like mid century, authentic old school tiki bars, a laid back calm and quiet environment to genuinely relax— this is the place for you. I can’t wait to come back.

Excellent 3-night stay. Fun, kitschy design. Great having the bar and restaurant on site. Pool was terrific with ample seating in both sun and shade on a very hot weekend. Rooms are well appointed, mattresses were a bit stiff and felt old. Staff was amazing!
