L'Horizon Resort & Spa, Hermann Bungalows
L'Horizon Resort & Spa truly exceeded my expectations. The pools and lounges are stunning—perfect for relaxing by the water or soaking up the sun. With two bars on-site, there’s plenty of options to unwind with a drink in hand. The staff were consistently friendly and attentive, frequently replacing towels throughout the day—a nice touch. There were just a couple of minor hiccups in the room: the automatic curtains didn’t respond once, and the showerhead was slightly loose, but both issues were resolved quickly and professionally. The black-and-white rug could use a deeper clean or more thorough vacuuming, but it didn’t detract from the overall experience. Everything else—from the ambiance to the service—was top-notch. This place feels like a true retreat, and I’d absolutely stay here again.

One of the best stays in Palm Springs! From the valet to the front desk and restaurant staff, everyone was incredibly friendly and made me feel genuinely welcomed.

I’ll definitely be back, and next time, I’ll stay much longer.

Dive Palm Springs
Our stay at Dive Palm Springs was absolutely perfect. Nestled in the heart of Palm Springs, this charming little hotel offers a peaceful retreat with a distinct California bohemian vibe. The room was spacious and incredibly comfortable, with a bed that made for a restful night's sleep. The outdoor pool is beautiful, and lounging on the canopy beds by the water was pure bliss. Breakfast was thoughtfully served by the friendly host right at the front desk—simple but delicious. The only minor downside? The curtains are quite sheer, so sunlight streams in early in the morning. But honestly, it added a warm, natural glow to the room and didn’t detract from our experience. Overall, the ambiance, comfort, and personal touch made this stay unforgettable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quiet, stylish escape in Palm Springs.
Riviera Resort Palm Springs
The Riviera Resort Palm Springs truly feels like a home away from home.

The staff went above and beyond with their kindness and attention to detail, making every moment feel special. From the lush landscaping to the relaxing poolside vibe, everything about this resort feels intentional and genuine. I’ve stayed at many places across the world, but few have made me feel as connected as this one. It’s not just a hotel—it’s a retreat that calls your name. I’ll definitely be back, again and again, long after my hair turns gray. Thank you to everyone who makes this place so magical.

The ambiance instantly transports you to a nostalgic era, with stylish details and a laid-back atmosphere that feels both timeless and fresh. While drinks are on the pricier side, they’re worth it for the experience and the cool, relaxed setting. The location is great, easy to get to, and the whole vibe makes it a standout choice. Definitely a unique spot worth visiting again.
L3 Oasis Hotel
Staying at L3 Oasis Hotel was an absolute delight during our weekend getaway to Palm Springs. The location couldn’t be better—walkable to local cafes, shops, and attractions, with easy access to public transit. The moment we stepped into the room, we were impressed by the spacious layout, quiet ambiance, and spotless cleanliness. Every detail felt thoughtfully designed—from the plush bedding to the modern amenities. The staff went above and beyond with their warm hospitality and helpful tips for exploring the area. We especially appreciated the peaceful atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after a busy day. It’s rare to find such a well-maintained, serene retreat with such excellent service. We’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend this gem to anyone visiting Palm Springs.
The Willows Palm Springs
We had a wonderful three-night stay at The Willows Palm Springs, specifically in the San Jacinto room, and it was truly memorable. The room itself is spacious with a cozy sitting area that made relaxing after a day out in the desert heat so enjoyable. Storage space is limited—there’s no dresser, just an antique console table that looks elegant but isn’t very practical for everyday use. The listing mentioned an "original bathroom," which initially raised some concerns, but we were pleasantly surprised: the bathroom was large, impeccably clean, well-maintained, and featured a modern walk-in shower. The private outdoor entrance was a standout feature—super convenient, especially for those who value privacy and easy access. Breakfast is a highlight, though with one caveat: only a fixed menu is offered, with no substitutions or additions. We appreciated the meal, but had to skip a few items we couldn’t eat. It would be great if they posted the next day’s breakfast menu in advance so guests can plan accordingly. Also, a small suggestion—early risers from the East Coast might appreciate having coffee and pastries available earlier in the morning. Overall, the photos on the website are extremely accurate and represent the property well. This place feels like a true retreat. We’d absolutely return and highly recommend The Willows to anyone visiting Palm Springs.
Los Arboles Hotel
Staying at Los Arboles Hotel was an absolute delight from start to finish. The moment I walked in, I was greeted by a serene atmosphere that perfectly blends natural elements with elegant design. The rooms are spacious, clean, and thoughtfully furnished—everything you'd want for a relaxing getaway. I especially loved the lush vegetation throughout the property and the unique architectural style that feels both modern and timeless. The staff went above and beyond with their warm, attentive service, making me feel truly welcome. Everything—from the ambiance to the attention to detail—was immaculate. This hotel offers exceptional value and comfort in a stunning desert oasis setting. I’ll definitely be returning next time I visit Palm Springs.
Desert Isle Resort
I stayed at Desert Isle Resort over ten years ago for nearly two weeks, and it still stands out in my memory as one of the best experiences I've had in Palm Springs. It's definitely my go-to choice whenever I visit the area. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and well-maintained—perfect for unwinding after a long day exploring the desert. The value for money is outstanding. This time around, I would have loved to extend my stay, but the extreme heat—close to 50°C for several days—made it tough to enjoy outdoor activities. Still, the resort’s cool indoor spaces, friendly staff, and peaceful atmosphere made it a refreshing retreat. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and a true desert getaway.
