This stay was a highlight of our road trip across California and Arizona. We hope to return someday and spend more time in Acres Landing.
We loved trailer 3. It was very comfortable and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed lying on the deck star gazing as well as the outdoor tub. We enjoyed the pool.

This place is a hidden gem. The pools are amazing. The views are great. It is very quiet. The staff are great. Make sure you have a car. Everything is far, not walkable.

Small, quiet resort that was perfect for a restful getaway.
The hot springs pool and hot tubs were amazing! The property was so tranquil and covered with plants that attracted hummingbirds and butterflies. We enjoyed that it was adults only and a "whisper quiet" environment with no TVs.
Unfortunately, the only reason I would go to the city of Desert Hot Springs is for this resort (or a neighbouring hotel in the hot springs zone). There's not much else in town. We grabbed a few groceries to...

My family of 3 spent 2 days here. It did not disappointment us. Room, hot tub and swimming pool are clean, staff was very helpful and pleasant. Landscapes are well maintained. Sauna and gym room are absolutely an added point. A complete place to spend time to relax away from home. My 2 days are not enough. I definitely would go back and stay here again. I only suggest if you can add sanitizing wipes in the gym room to clean the equipment before and after use. Overall, it's excellent and price is...

Room was good. The staff were excellent.
We would not return here for a special occasion weekend.
It was disappointing that the facility offered a day pass.
When we booked it was under the understanding that the place only had 6 rooms. We were under the impression that would be 12-15 people on the premises.
Not so, we ended up with a group of young people and a barking dog on our second day
We make the trip to Desert Hot Springs every year. The staff were a 10/10. Loved the place. We went...

Had a really nice stay here, pool and hot tub is very nice. Very Quiet, comfortable rooms. Couple things to note, there isn’t any staff or lobby at the hotel for cream for coffee, questions etc. no room service for towels bedding refresh. And bathtub is small and old and has no privacy in windows in bathroom. But overall very nice stay recommended.

I loved this little oasis. The pool and hot tub were fantastic. The lobby is adorable, and the rooms are renovated and clean. I love having a deck amd a fridge. The beds were super comfy, the room was large and it was clean. I really love the loungy pool area.

The rooms are a bit worse for wear but they are clean. The hot water was scalding hot, making showering a difficult experience. I enjoy the pools and outdoor experience that the hotel brings.
