We’ve been dreaming of staying at Villa Royale ever since we first visited their restaurant, Del Rey, a few years ago. Last weekend, we finally had the chance—and it was absolutely perfect. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles, complimentary drinks, and a room upgrade that made our birthday getaway feel extra special. The spacious room was luxurious and quiet—especially loved that it’s an adults-only property, so peace and privacy were guaranteed. The poolside food and drinks were fantastic—perfect for relaxing under the California sun. Every detail, from the service to the ambiance, made this stay unforgettable. I can’t wait to come back.
Hotel California
As a retired general contractor, I’ve always been observant about maintenance and building conditions—old habits die hard. During our stay at Hotel California in Palm Springs, I took a close look around the property and was genuinely impressed. The entire site was spotlessly clean, with well-maintained landscaping and thoughtful attention to detail. Our guest room was pristine, in excellent condition, and exactly what we expected from a quality stay. My wife, who’s notoriously picky, was thoroughly happy—something I don’t say lightly. Linda, the on-site manager, was outstanding—friendly, knowledgeable, and always available during our visit. She gave us a thorough tour and answered every question with care and patience. From the cleanliness to the staff’s professionalism, everything exceeded expectations. This isn’t just a place to sleep—it’s a welcoming, well-run retreat that feels like home. Definitely planning to return.
Talavera Palm Springs
We absolutely love returning to Talavera Palm Springs—this is a place we visit at least twice a year, and every stay feels like coming home. We’ve stayed in five of the eleven haciendas over the years, and not once has it been anything less than perfect. This time, we were originally booked in Luna but got upgraded to Fountain—an unexpected delight! The property is truly a hidden gem: lush grounds, a refreshing pool, and peaceful surroundings that make it easy to unwind. The quiet atmosphere is ideal for relaxation, and the attention to detail throughout the property is impressive. We’re already looking forward to our next visit. This is more than just a getaway—it’s a retreat we’ll keep coming back to again and again.
Old Ranch Inn - Adults Only 21 & up
This stay at Old Ranch Inn was absolutely exceptional—easily the best hotel we've ever experienced during our many trips to Palm Springs. The property is beautifully designed with a rustic-chic vibe that feels both luxurious and relaxed. Being adults-only (21+) made for a peaceful, quiet atmosphere—perfect for unwinding without distractions. The location is convenient for exploring downtown Palm Springs, and there are plenty of great dining options nearby. From the warm welcome to the attention to detail in every corner, this place truly stands out. It’s not just a hotel—it’s a memorable retreat. We’ll definitely be back.
Holiday House Palm Springs
This place is absolutely charming—every detail reflects thoughtfulness from the owners and designers. The rooms are not only spacious but beautifully appointed, with incredibly comfortable beds and plush pillows that made for a restful night’s sleep. Breakfast was fresh, wholesome, and delicious—perfect way to start the day. What truly stood out was the personal touch from General Manager Christopher Gonzalez. While I was relaxing by the pool, he personally brought over chilled towels and refreshing slices of watermelon—such a small gesture, but it made a big difference. It’s clear this team genuinely cares about guest comfort. A standout stay in Palm Springs, and I’ll definitely be back.
Stardust Hotel
Staying at Stardust Hotel in Palm Springs was an absolute highlight! The moment I walked in, I was blown away by the vibrant, artistic decor—every corner feels like a photo shoot. Jessica, the staff member who greeted me, was incredibly warm and welcoming, making my check-in experience memorable. The pool water was perfectly maintained—crystal clear and just the right temperature for a refreshing dip.

Les Cactus
Staying at Les Cactus in Palm Springs was an absolute delight—far beyond what I expected! We arrived late due to watching an NBA game, but the night staff, an incredibly kind gentleman, greeted us with warmth and patience. He didn’t rush us at all—he even opened the door, walked us through the hotel amenities, and shared that he really enjoys Chinese food. That small gesture made such a difference. The property itself is clean, well-maintained, and has a charming vibe. It’s perfectly located for exploring downtown Palm Springs, and public transit access is super convenient. I’ve stayed at many hotels before, but this one stood out—not just for the comfort, but for the genuine hospitality. A truly memorable experience, and I’d absolutely return.

The vibe here is absolutely timeless and calming—like stepping back into a simpler era. The property is quiet, spotless, and thoughtfully designed down to the smallest detail. I especially appreciated the basket of snacks waiting in the room—such a nice touch. The pool area is clean, well-maintained, and perfect for unwinding. Since it’s exclusively for adults, it’s ideal for those seeking peace and privacy, just like us. We stayed here last year and made the same choice again this time around—it truly stands out as a top pick for a relaxing getaway.
La Maison Hotel - Adults Only
Absolutely love this place — I stayed here last year and was so impressed that I had to come back. After nearly 20 years in the hospitality industry, I’ve seen countless hotels, but La Maison stands out as one of the most special. It’s a true hidden gem — quiet, intimate, and incredibly well-cared for. The rooms are spotless, the grounds beautifully landscaped, and the pool and spa area are clean and inviting. What really sets it apart is the vibe after 5 PM — staff wrap up their shift, giving you complete privacy to relax in your own space. Whether you're lounging by the fire pit, swimming under the stars, or grilling in the outdoor kitchen, it feels like home. But what truly blows me away is the team. Blanca, who handles breakfast setup in the mornings, remembered us from our previous visit — such a personal touch! And Star, the new manager, is simply phenomenal — warm, attentive, and genuinely makes you feel like family. It’s not just a hotel stay; it’s like visiting friends. Every detail, from the thoughtful amenities to the quiet charm, shows real care. I can’t wait to return. If you’re looking for a peaceful, romantic escape with exceptional service and zero crowds, this is it.
Jazz Hotel Palm Springs
Staying at Jazz Hotel Palm Springs was a delightful experience for our quick visit to the area. The room was spotless and perfectly suited for a short getaway, offering just the right amount of comfort without feeling overwhelming. It's conveniently located near downtown Palm Springs, with plenty of restaurants and bars within walking distance—ideal for evening outings. Though it’s a smaller boutique property, its charm and warm atmosphere more than make up for it. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful from check-in to check-out, making us feel welcome throughout our stay. We’d highly recommend this gem and will definitely be returning on our next trip to Palm Springs!
