“Great Hotel”
Another great stay at the resort. Everything was the typical great quality. Only improvement would be to clean the pool overnight. In the morning it was pretty dirty....
“Best hotel in Palm Springs!”
I absolutely will not stay anywhere else when I go to palm springs. No other hotel has the type of friendly service and pool which is why we would go to palm springs in the first place. I would definitely recommend them. There is pool side service so you can order food and drinks while you hang out which is very convenient.
“Will return!”
This resort is BEAUTIFUL! The rooms are clean and the grounds are well kept. The pools were great. It gets very crowded on Saturdays but the other days were fine. The breakfast buffet was delicious. We would love to go back.
“Really nice time in the desert”
This is a very nice hotel, recently renovated. Comfy rooms, pretty spacious, with excellent bathroom. Balcony nice place for mprning coffee. Palm Desert is lovely, close to the San jacinto mtns. Shops were a disappointment, an the location, although lovely, is a little bit of a drive from other amenities.
“Impressive”
Beautiful resort with impressive grounds, lobby, and pool area. You really don't have to leave the resort once you arrive; It's all there, shopping, dining, golfing, and sunbathing; I even spotted several motion picture stars sitting at the Starbucks which is conviently located off the lobby. The grounds are home to Swans, flamingo's. ducks, and geese. Occassionally the "ducks" take a dip in the pool; although they don't stay long.
“beautiful time!”
We got such a steal on our stay with the golf package and they upgraded our room too!
“Great place in the desert”
we went last spring break and staffing was horrid! This year better service. Nice remodel
“A great spot....”
A wonderful hotel, that has everything you need to relax. Located on a lush piece of real estate in Desert Springs, this hotel has Starbucks inside - 3 pools that are nice and comfortable - though not too deep strangely enough, and a couple of places to eat and drink. Most will really like this place.
“would love to go back.”
This hotel was very nice and I want to go back. Anything, you need is in than hotel. Very cool pool side and great night life
“Fun Family Get-away”
We were upgraded to this hotel due to an expedia error and we were thrilled. Beatiful resort with awesome amenities. A little annoying that you can't take your own food/drink into the pool areas. The prices are atrocious at the poolside cafe.
