Fodor's Expert Review Azure Palm Hot Springs Resort & Day Spa Oasis
67589 Hacienda Ave., Desert Hot Springs, California, 92240, USA
It's fitting that this healthful haven is set on Miracle Hill—in 2021, using the bones of an old hotel, it was resurrected and revitalized as an adults-only boutique property with individually decorated rooms and suites, a full-service spa, a juice-cleanse program, a café, a 100-foot mineral-water pool (the longest in Southern California), saunas and jetted hot tubs, a cold chamber, a Himalayan salt room, and thatch-shaded soaking tubs that are continuously refilled with fresh mineral water. Landscaped with native plants, this 1-acre oasis also features glorious valley and mountain views, a bucket shower, and a reflexology walk. Expansion plans are in the works to incorporate 5 more acres that will accommodate event space and additional holistic huts and treatment rooms.
PROS
- can reserve oasis tubs for private two-hour blocks
- only overnight guests can use ice and salt rooms
- spa suites have spring-fed in-room soaking tubs
CONS
- day-pass program can make it a tad crowded
- café with limited (though nutritious) menu is the only on-site dining option
- towels and robes could be bigger and plusher
