The hotel

Bringing that island feel to the Californian desert city, Margaritaville Resort Palm Springs is the first of the famous chain on the West Coast so you can enjoy the relaxed and colourful vibe as part of your US road trip, or for a chance to chill out by the pool with a cocktail in hand. With a calendar of activities including poolside games, movie nights and live DJ’s, this large resort caters for all ages. There’s two pools to relax by, or visit the spa for an array of treatments that will have you feeling like you’re on a secluded island somewhere! You’re just moments from the shopping and golf that Palm Springs is famous for, and parking is included in the resort fee. You don’t need to leave the resort really though – you’re spoilt for choice when it comes to food. Enjoy a steak at JWB Grill, quasedillas by the pool, or grab a takeaway pizza and enjoy it on your balcony when you book a Deluxe Room. If you’ve visited a Margaritaville before you’ll know they’re famous for the ‘5 o’clock somewhere’ bar and this place is no different. It’s the staple of any Margaritaville experience.

The hotel was nice, clean, great service. The location was easy to access. Nothing was more of a delight than the experience we had at the bar. Manny, the bartender had everyone in good moods and I will literally come back to stay just to grab some drinks from him.

I had never stayed at any Margaritaville locations before, so I wasn't sure what to expect. My boyfriend and I rented a day bed by the pool and had outstanding service from Christian, the bartender at the 5 O'Clock Somewhere Bar.

Great trip! The hotel and staff were great. We checked in early and hit the pool. The food was solid at the pool; both pools were nice. Our room was very clean and well maintained. The staff from bartenders, bell hops and parking attendants were all great. Loved our experience

We were put in the most remote room on the property. Our $400 deluxe room had a lovely view of the parking lot. We asked to change rooms as soon as we walked in and were told there was nothing available. Not true.

We were put in the most remote room on the property. Our $400 deluxe room had a lovely view of the parking lot. We asked to change rooms as soon as we walked in and were told there was nothing available. Not true. So we walked about 1/4 mile to the pool (not including the 200 steps to the elevator past construction - yes I counted) only to find that the hot pool was barely tepid. I did not complain, but two other people did, and both were blown off by pool staff. So, it's sundown in December, getting cold, walking back to the room in a wet suit was not fun. We get into the room and the heater doesn't work. It was freezing in there. Overall the decor was tacky, construction ongoing. Jimmy would be sad. Never never again. Read less
