The Dunes Hotel
"Friendly, convenient and comfortable!"
Acres Landing
"Clean room, extremely simple. It was great for the wife and I. Just a getaway weekend. Pool is great, the hot tub even better. There are food options near by, but we drove to Palm Springs or Rancho Mirage to eat/shop/walk around more often. The drive is less than 15 mins. For the price, definitely recommend to give it a shot. It doesn't resemble a trailer once youre inside of it. We will be back at some point."
Aqua Soleil Hotel & Mineral Water Spa
"The TV next to the pool is supposed to have cable, but it only has DVDs. The blinds are see-through, so I had to cover them with a blanket for privacy."
The Spring Resort and Spa - Adults only
"Amazing property and very peaceful."
