This place is a nice antidote to the larger, less personal hot springs spas in the area. Warning: it is located in a residential area, so don't think you're lost if you're trying to find it among private homes. It is a little off-the-beaten path in that way. It's pretty special, and though I've only used it as a day-spa,... More

I really enjoyed this lovely little motel conversion. The Creative room designs are a bit kitsch, but that's the fun of it. Would highly recommend! More

This is the standard to which all specialty lodging should aspire: quality, value, offbeat charm, sumptuous yet funky rooms, unique ambience, and first-class service. Owner Bruce Abney has carved a little world unto itself in the middle of nowhere. Or what seems like the middle of nowhere, compared to the rest of the Coachella Valley’s desert resort cities. The city... More

This was our second stay at El Morocco and it was just as good as the first. Everything about this place indicates that the owners really care that you have a good time. Things are clean and the staff are wonderful. As well, the rooms are nice and the beds comfortable. This time we were even upgraded, free of charge,... More

My wife found El Morocco on TA. She wanted to do a massage and veg out for the day. She called in the morning and was able to set up massages for the both of us. My wife didn't tell me the location was in a residential neighborhood and I actually drove past it. After finding the location (it has... More

We visited El Morocco Inn & Spa for the 3rd time in November. The host is always friendly and gratious. The room are comfortable and uniquely decorated. The small pool is heated by a natural hot spring, as is the large hot tub. The new addition is a full-size, authentic sultan's tent in the newly developed garden area behind the... More

My husband and I were looking for a very relaxing, romantic weekend for just the two of us. All we knew was that we wanted to stay somewhere in Desert Hot Springs so we could enjoy the warm pools this time of year. We were sick of going to big box vanilla hotels, so after reading a bunch of reviews... More

My reservation was for both Friday and Saturday. Unfortunately, I got sick and my doctor wanted me to go back for 2nd check up on Saturday before... More

Very seldom does a hotel, let alone a bed And breakfast, attend to details as well as El Morocco. The bed was comfortable, the mineral water pool and soaking pool were splendid, The breakfast offered a wide selection of carbs, protein, fruit And French Press Coffee. Bruce (owner) has successfully imprinted everything with Moroccan theme, all tastefully done. There is... More
