Incredibly nice hosts who tactfully engaged the clientele to socialize. We felt quite comfortable despite the potential for such an environment to be intimidating. Truly relaxing experience! We will visit again 😃👍

Happy New Year/Birthday happy getaway weekend

Pros: Lots of pool towels, lounging robes, evening social hour, great staff, steam room, on-site spa, plenty of room around the pools, comfortable seating.
Cons: Room interiors (especially bathrooms) could be updated. I wish the whole resort was smoke-free because the air never seemed to circulate enough.
Location: Just south of Downtown, it's a very comfortable walk (15-20 minutes) or car drive/ride (5-10 minutes) to everything. Also on the free Buzz bus route.
The staff here is really helpful and accommodating and friendly. I mentioned that I came to get away from Los Angeles/Pasadena for the new year and for my birthday, and before you knew it, were wishing me happy birthday. The morning breakfast is better than the usual continental breakfast and includes cold and hot cereals, fresh grapefruit halves picked from an on-site tree, and a waffle machine. The coffee tastes great and is refreshed throughout the day. Two heated swimming pools, two hot tubs, and one steam room, are all great and rather spacious (but perhaps overly chlorinated so people with sensitive skin should be prepared to wash off and lotion up frequently). The evening social hour to mix and mingle with other guests is served with cocktails, beer, wine, fresh juices, bar snacks, and is a fun way to meet others, get dinner/activity recommendations, or continue socializing with an evening meal off-site that you all arrange on the spot. Like just about all the other gay clothing-optional men's resorts in Palm Springs, the experience of staying here is largely dependent on what you want to experience and what the other guests want for their time too. The place can be a quiet retreat if you that's what you want, or a friendly and flirty social time if you're into that. I went with no expectations other than to get away for a bit, and ended up making some nice new friends (from the southern CA area and from around the US and Canada). Fun time!
