Truly Spa
Immediate amazing first impression. Walking in you smell the wonderful spa essential oils, front desk is so nice, cute little tour of all the amenities. They have spa like music near the 24 hour pool. The decor is so beautiful. Great spots to lounge and relax. I can’t think of one bad thing, can’t wait to come back!

The bones of this place are amazing, and we really love the vibe. However, it's tired with a bunch of deferred maintenance and needs updating.

Quiet adult getaway
Fantastic three day getaway at the El Morocco. Cute if not simple themed room, 24 hour hot springs hot tub (more like a small swimming pool) pool and saunas. High quality and reasonably priced spa services as extras. Will be back...

Once you entered, the courtyard pool and overall aesthetic transported us away from a very generic desert hot springs. Staff was super helpful.

Wonderful hidden gem!
Beautiful property! Loved the theme, the decor, the relaxing atmosphere, and how quiet it is. The bed and pillows were so comfortable. The free water, coffee, and lemonade were such nice touches, especially during this excessive heat. The pool and hot tub were both so relaxing and peaceful. Loved all the cool lounge areas and the personal DVD collection and ability to watch whatever you'd like to in your rooms was cool too. We did not partake in any of the spa treatments, but I imagine they are nice too. The hotel staff was super helpful and let us check in way early because we didn't want to leave our luggage in the car. So thankful for a beautiful stay!

Oasis in Desert Hot Springs
This place is so cute. The staff is super friendly. Just loved the whole vibe. Lots of amenities and the decor in the rooms was adorable. Wish the bathroom had a fan and that there was some brighter lighting available in the room but other than than loved our stay. Would come back.
