Palm Springs｜Two Bunch Palms🌴 A Hidden Oasis in the Desert

Finally checked off this hidden gem of a hot spring resort in the desert! Just a 2-hour drive from Los Angeles to reach this paradise～ 🏜️ Ambience & Experience Surrounded by giant cacti and palm trees, the resort feels like a Moroccan-inspired oasis. Though summer brings more bugs (bring repellent!), the starlit hot springs at night are absolutely worth it! We chose to soak during sunset, watching the pink-purple twilight paint the desert sky—abs breathtaking✨ ♨️ Hot Spring Features • Natural mineral springs maintained at 38-40°C year-round • Daytime soaking with fresh coconut water and fruit platters (iced coconut🥥 highly recommended!) • Nighttime cocktail packages under the stars—try the lavender mojito • Semi-outdoor pools offer great privacy and photo opportunities! 🏡 Room Options We stayed in the "Hot Spring View Room"—highly recommend: ✅ Direct access to the main pools ✅ Includes breakfast for two + evening desserts ✅ Free morning yoga sessions "Desert Rooms" are perfect for those seeking tranquility, each with a private patio 🎡 Featured Activities Daily themed experiences: ▫️ Mon/Thu: Tarot readings (uncannily accurate!) ▫️ Tue/Fri: Sunrise meditation (desert sunrise is stunning) ▫️ Wed/Sat: Wine tastings (sourced directly from Napa Valley) ▫️ Sun: DIY scented candle making (take home as souvenirs) 🍲 Nearby Eats Must-try "Shabu Shabu Zen" just 10 mins away: ➰ Wagyu sukiyaki set is a great value ($58/person) ➰ Extensive sake selection (try Daiginjo!) ➰ Book a window seat for romantic desert sunset views 📍 71680 CA-111, Rancho Mirage 📸 Photo Tips 1.
