I stayed here three nights while visiting Palm Springs with friends. The Inn is fairly new, and it shows. The rooms are quite large, and have a small but useful kitchenette. There is a very small pool on the site. The Inn has a great location, and most of the sights/activities are within a short distance. The owners are friendly... More

I booked this trip last minute, my search criteria was for a 'bear' resort where I could unwind, enjoy the weather, and hopefully meet some nice folks. The resort was close to the airport and easy to find. It's close proximity to the great shops and dining establishements in the area, but a rental car did come in handy. The... More

This was my worst experience staying at a wanna-be resort for men in Palm Springs. New owners need a manual in meeting customer standards as they re-hung their dirty towels after I placed them on the floor to be replaced. Living on site and trying to mingle with guests for sex activity made my ecperience feel more like a dirty... More

Bearfoot Inn is committed to making each and every guest’s stay as enjoyable as possible. We are extremely disappointed that we apparently did not meet that goal with Beefybeartop10. Given the chance we would be more than eager to address all of the concerns and issues raised in this “review”, were there any truth to the matter, or if they... More

I had the good fortune of waiting a bit too long to make reservations in Palm Springs at a place I had stayed at so many times in the past. As a result, it forced me to look online for an alternative place for my weekend visit before returning home. As luck would find it, during my online search, I... More

The resort has recently been completely rebuilt and it really shows. The building looks almost new. Sparkling clean, great furnishings and pool area furniture. Loved swimming in the pool and soaking in the hot tub. The owners are great guys, always ready to chat or quietly leave you to your thoughts. They are planning to bring in a few more... More

We were delighted with our week long stay at the Bearfoot Inn. The remodel of this mid-century property was very well done. The warm-tone sunlit colors of the building and the red lounge chairs were beautiful. It was a great way to experience California indoor-outdoor living. The view of the mountains, the palm trees, the stars at night were wonderful.... More

My partner and I spent 5 nights at the Inn. A great place to unwind and forget the Canadian Winter. The rooms, the pool, the hottub and the people where fantastic. We felt at home and very comfortable. See you again next year.

The place was totally remodeled. The rooms were chic yet done in very comfortable brown tones. The common pool area and whirlpool were great. There are only 10 rooms so you will not be on top of each other in the common area, no fighting for a pool chair. The owner was very friendly and attentive to our needs without... More

My husband and I stayed at Bearfoot Inn for 5 days this past February after seeing the great, modern renovations to this midcentury hotel on their website. Our experience there did not disappoint. Everything was exactly how the pictures on the site represented, Glen and Jerry have created an atmosphere that is friendly, relaxed and open. Clothing is optional, but... More

I stayed on this property for a weekend getaway - and had a wonderful time. The property owners are wonderful and friendly (Glen and Jerry), plus it's a great property. It's newly renovated - so all of the outdoor furniture, indoor furniture, etc. are brand new. In fact, they are still working on installing a few additional features outside, including... More
