My stay was absolutely fantastic, I highly recommend Little Paradise. The "hotel" operates more like a B 'n B, which I wasn't sure how to handle, but I would definitely book here again!!! It is in a quiet area, very clean, updated design/amenities, and impeccably staffed. My now-fiancé arrived midday Saturday to our hotel. We were unsure of the parking situation, as the hotel was situated in a semi-residential cul-de-sac, but there were two doors with signs posted indicated we had arrived at the Little Paradise Hotel. We entered into the pool/courtyard area where the manager Judy spotted us; she walked us into the Office where the check in was completed and she walked us through the amenities and into our suite. The office is available 24hrs and includes some guides, a TV, extra plastic cups, ice, coffee pods, bananas. I spotted bikes and helmets for use, but we did not inquire. The pool had numerous lounge chairs, umbrellas, and side tables surrounding it, including one larger cabana... Possibly with a firepit and floaties? The saltwater pool itself is available 24hrs as well, and Little Paradise provides towels (separate from your room towels) and a variety of sunscreens/lotions/gels. I counted about 8 rooms/suites, each having entrances facing into the central pool area. Each room has a cabana-style patio in this central area, complete with a set of chairs and ceiling (roof??) fan, misters, and privacy curtain. Onto the room - our entry was directly in the main room/sleeping area. We had a very comfortable king-sized bed, two armchairs, and large curved TV above a fireplace. Adjacent was the kitchenette complete with hi-top table, microwave, coffeemaker, fridge/freezer, sink, etc., even a cheese board! There was a complimentary bottle of wine, snacks, fresh water, and continental breakfast (bagels, croissants, yogurt cups) waiting for us. There is patio access from the kitchenette, though the patios are not private and accessible by all the other units. The bathroom was AMAZING, very up to date, with dual vanity sinks and the fanciest shower I've experienced! Water pressure and temperature was very very good. Little Paradise provides the usual toiletries, and include razors, makeup wipes, disposable slippers, the list goes on. The only awkward thing was the wardrobe/closet was situated in the bathroom (no storage in the bedroom area), which made for mild inconvenience. Judy herself provided the most courteous and friendly service. She was available by phone whenever she was not in the office/visible on the premises, though we had no need to use her. She asked upon arrival if we were celebrating anything - if I had only known I was getting engaged during our stay who knows what pleasantries she would have bestowed upon us!! All on all, I would recommend Little Paradise Hotel as million times over. Thank you Judy and team for the most...
Read moreSERVICE Uncovered self-parking available onsite. A lengthy (early) checkin w/a lot of rules to cover but the host is very personable, hands-on, and easily reachable (by SMS/in-person).
ROOM(studio) A spacious modern design & very well-maintained. Lots of nice fixtures & homey stock; it feels like a vacation from the comfort of your home: Suede chairs, glass tabletops, corner fireplace, & lots of overhead lights. The windows are functional & provide lots of natural light. The combination of shades and curtains also does a great job of completely blocking out light if desired. AC is quiet & performant, but cannot go below 72 w/o risk of freezing. The outdoor seating areas are comfortable with ample chairs & couches on the patio + a hammock in the back. A bit dusty in some areas but the level of cleanliness was overall good.
BED The mattress & bedding were clean but the firmness level (too soft) & box-spring base did not yield a great night's sleep for us. The setup also creeks and moves a lot.
BATH Very large & impressive bathroom w/dimmable lights, HUGE vanity, eco-friendly toilet, polished tile, strong ventilation, & plenty of toiletries. The best shower you could hope for on vacation -- Vigo Brielle shower massage panel -- 6 massage jets, a round rain shower-head, hand-shower w/64" hose, & invigorating water-pressure. The towels are large, soft and absorbent + 2 bathrobes are provided. Cleaning around the windows could be improved because there's a lot of dust in the corners. The top of the shower-head also needs more tightening to prevent water from spraying out the top when all features are fully turned on.
TV Great entertainment options: A gigantic curved Samsung TV mounted in the main area with Satellite programming + A Roku (provided by the host). A second, smaller, TV is mounted in the kitchen.
Wi-Fi A notch above average & sufficient for work -- AND ITS ENCRYPTED! Nerd stats: 46-62 Mbps Down 26-35 Mbps Up 0% Packet loss Performance: Video streaming - Good Online Gaming - Average Video Chatting - Good
FOOD Whether you like to cook or order-in, you're set. Very DoorDash/UberEats friendly! A Kitchenette equipped with a double-burner stovetop, full-size microwave, fridge, Keurig coffee bar, and multiple sets of dinnerware.
NOISE Very quiet and peaceful with minor & infrequent noisy neighborhood activity.
VERDICT Great service, location, & amenities perfect for a staycation, vacation, or workcation experience. The beds could use an update and might be insufficient for those that need more support/firmness. Some premium bedding would also take the sleeping arrangements to the next level. Overall I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet &...
Read moreMe and my boyfriend stood here during Coachella weekend one and we were so pleasantly surprised to find out how nice and accommodating our hosts were. Victor and Judy were literally the nicest hosts we’ve ever met during any of our travels. We went to santorini Greece last year and we both agreed we love it here more and that’s saying something! We came to the hotel and were stunned by how clean and beautiful the room was. The shower was literally the best shower I’ve ever had in my life. The double sinks made it so convenient to get ready. The bed was super lush and comfortable with amazing linens. Walking outside and having a view of the pool and mountains was simply breathtaking and unreal. The hotel truly lives up to the name and I felt like I was in a little paradise during my stay. They have a filtered water sink in their office that’s open to guests 24/7, and always have bananas available. They also have bikes available for guests to ride. Touches like this are not something you can find at a regular big name hotel! They also had a full kitchen with pots, pans, silverware, plates, even a cutting board! Truly a home away from home! The neighborhood is also super peaceful and safe; we woke up to the sound of birds chirping every morning. The other guests were also super nice. Everyone greeted each other and smiled at each other, it was such a kind and positive place which also made it truly feel like a paradise. Me and my boyfriend stood an extra day because we loved it so much! We also had a late and delayed flight the following day and Victor let us hang by the pool and let us put our luggage in the main office! What other hotel would let you do that!? Me and my boyfriend spent the final day wandering around, biking, hanging by the pool even though we had already checked out! Seriously the nicest and most accommodating host EVER. There’s also a gorgeous fireplace by the pool, the pool is warm at night, and there’s always towels available for use outside. I can’t say enough good things about this place! Me and my boyfriend never wanted to leave! In fact we made the choice to stay here every year during the Coachella music festival weekend. We loved it so much that we’re even thinking about moving here one day! We’re from nyc where most people are rude so this area in Palm Springs truly felt like heaven. Even the people in the neighborhood that we met outside the hotel were so kind. You can tell Victor and Judy love what they do. They go above and beyond for their guests. The housekeepers were also lovely and helpful and did an amazing job at cleaning! Sincerely thank you for giving us the best few days of our lives! We can’t wait to come...
