Great quiet location, great friendly staff, and very comfortable rooms. Love the fact that there is free EV charging, free continental breakfast and sandwiches of your choice for lunch. Only negative is the pool was never swept during the day. Plenty of trees dropping things into the pool. Definitely will go back! Probably the best gay men’s resort in P S!

I've traveled extensively throughout the world, and this was by far one of the best properties that I have vacationed. Everyone goes far out of their way to ensure your comfort, relaxation and happiness. From the moment you enter the front gates, all of the world's stressors leave your body - as though entering the on-earth gates of heaven into paradise. The area on the property is gorgeous, well-maintained and conducive to a total boy relaxation experience!

Don’t wait to make your reservation at the Descanso! A cute, 15 room boutique hotel in the heart of Palm Springs. An oasis that is lush, with a great design concept and amazing but not intrusive staff. Hats off to the general manager, Kent, who is a hospitality guru! Stay here and thank me later.
