Hotels in Desert Hot Springs, CA

“Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Getaway in March 2026. The location worked well for us as we explored both the area between both Joshua Tree and Palm Springs. Enjoyed the pool after returning from a day of exploring when temperatures were in the mid 90's to 100's. And as mentioned by others there are breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains from the pool deck, especially at sunrise and sunset!. Also loved the Retro Decor and comfortable furniture/bedding, and full kitchen. Would definitely stay again when travelling in the area.”

“Hope Springs is simply our favourite getaway! It’s simple, elegant and peaceful. Come here to read, soak in the pristine pools and truly detach from the outside world. Hope Springs is total relaxation and rejuvenation! They put on a delicious breakfast spread, the staff are helpful and friendly and other guests are always respectful of one and other’s space and quiet time when they visit. There is a secret code at Hope Springs which has been carried on for decades. This place is very special ❤🙏”

“I planned a wedding at The Lautner Compound last weekend and it was a wonderful day! Tracy and her team were very efficient and on top on everything. They were present all day offering help and making sure things ran smoothly alongside my planning team. The venue is truly SO BEAUTIFUL with so many tiny perfect details. Thanks Tracy! :)”

“Best hotel I've ever stayed at, and I used to be a paid athlete that traveled regularly. The place is clean, super dog friendly and the pool is amazing. My wife and I love this place!”

“Rejuvenate with Jan at Azure Palm Hot Springs was exactly what I needed—and so much more than a five-day fast.

Jan’s knowledge, experience, and intuitive guidance made the entire process feel both purposeful and deeply supported. She knows when to educate, when to encourage, and when to simply allow the body to do what it knows how to do. There is a confidence and ease in the way she guides you that allowed me to truly surrender to the experience.

And Azure Palm is the perfect setting for it. There are all the “bells and whistles” you could want—the mineral waters, pools, saunas, beautiful spaces to rest and restore—but somehow none of it feels busy, overly programmed, or resort-like in the conventional sense. The atmosphere is peaceful, understated, and wonderfully low-key. You can be cared for without feeling managed, and have everything available to you while still finding plenty of solitude and quiet.

There is something about fasting in the desert, surrounded by warm mineral waters, open sky, stillness, and Jan’s expert guidance that turns the experience into something much more than a cleanse. It becomes a genuine reset—of body, mind, and spirit.

I left feeling lighter, clearer, deeply rested, and reconnected to myself. I would absolutely return.”

“Stayed one night and it was nice, The New Manager deeply cares about his new position and the success of the hotel. Just make sure you ask for the Door codes and wi-fi so you dont get locked out of the resort. It’s quiet and you have three pool options”

“The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
Spent the day at the pools and spa so I can’t say anything about the rooms.
First the Ugly. The decor could use some updating. It kitschy 1980s and it makes the place feel dated and not so clean. The Bad - well I can’t really say anything bad about it. But the GOOD! I’ll save the best for last— the receptionists (both in the lobby and inside the spa) were very nice and dealt with a few logistical issues we encountered. At the spa Hiram the masseuse was great. His hands must have eyes because he knew exactly how to find the knots. Afterward we had lunch at the restaurant and while the food was okay the service was FIVE ⭐️ STAR!! Maddie was our server and I would recommend and return just for the outstanding and professional customer service that she brought to the table. She could give lessons on exemplary customer service and it’s this that really makes this place shine. Go there, it’s a fun day trip.”

“Had a great time while we stayed here, and really enjoyed the multiple pools and spas. Would recommend going for a nice stay away! Maintenance guy Benny was really attentive and helpful, he even helped us take our things in from the car! The general manager Karen was also very nice and helpful!”
