This was my second stay at this hotel and the experience was as good as the first. Stayed in room 13 which was recently remodeled and clean. Grounds were well-maintained. The freshly-prepared hot breakfasts from a menu were a nice touch. A discrepancy on the checkout bill was corrected immediately. I would stay here again.

I love the beautiful landscaping, and in this cool weather it is great to have the pool temperature set at 92 degrees fahrenheit. The breakfast is terrific; they actually cook some items for you. Most guests take advantage of being naked at the pool, which is fun. My room was spacious and nicely appointed; I even got a free upgrade!

Relaxed, lush, quiet.

Lovely grounds and lush landscaping. The property is sufficiently spread about that one can always find a quiet, shady spot to read or nap. Guests certainly seemed to socialize, but nothing about the "scene" felt pushy or in-your-face. My room definitely could have used an update, but that almost added to the charm.

Consistently the best in Palm Springs

The management at Vista Grande are exceptional. I usually have a late check in due to travel down from San Francisco and there is always someone to greet me and get me settled in one of my favorite rooms. The breakfast and lunch included every day is such a nice amenity, especially when working remotely.
