“In my opinion, this Palm Springs hotel taps into a joyful retro aesthetic centered around its tiki theme. The grounds and pool area appear particularly well-maintained, and its location puts many area attractions within easy reach. I think the on-site bar makes a compelling case for staying put, however.”
