"My sisters and I (all seniors) stayed here for a girls weekend. The staff went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and felt special from the moment we stepped out of our car. Valet, front desk and hospitality staff were all amazing! The food and drinks were excellent at the venues we tried: Seven Olive Gastropub, Glo Sushi (yummy!), H20 pool bar. Highly recommended!"

8/10 Good
"The property is nice but dated. Rooms definitely are great for families but need a facelift. Towels are no longer provided at pool and you have to take what is given in the room which is an inconvenience imo. Pools were murky and packed. Lots of outside wagons and towels at pool which makes me think a lot of locals vs hotel guests. My kids love it but it’s just meh for me."

"We liked the breakfast. Much better than the standard motel, hot breakfast. The beds were good. The cart for bringing your luggage to the room was very helpful. The mini fridge does not have a freezer section."

"I enjoyed my stay. But I always leave on a bad note when you’re charged $50 more for resort fee and then another $45 for parking. I really encourage you to just go ahead and include that fee with the room price. Because it does leave you with a sour feeling after you’ve had a great week at your resort."

The Bungalows by Homestead Modern at The Joshua Tree Retreat Center

8/10 Good
"The bungalows themselves were modern and pretty. Our stove had take across it so couldn’t use it, and our dining table was dirty as if it’d gotten missed in the cleaning. We were unable to find the pool, and the cafe was never open when we were there - not sure if it’s supposed to be or if only open for group events? It appears to be a retreat for group events also but it was quiet when we were there. Convenient location. Bed was super comfortable. Cute balcony with loungers. Enjoyed our stay overall, though wished we could’ve found the pool. 😉"

"The rooms in person were bigger and better than the pics on Hotels.com and the YouTube videos I had watched. Kid friendly. There were 8 of us. Five adults and three kids with plenty of room. We had the lock off room. We had a great time"
