“I fell in love and I want to move in.”

El Morocco Inn & Spa

Mar 10, 2008

I need to start by saying I love everything about this place. You walk in and you experience a total transportation with visual pleasure to the eye, the fresh scents after you pass by Peacock feathers gently caressing your body...and you have only taken 3 steps in the door. Every attention to detail has been thought about and with a staff that is so in love with what they do they make you feel like family - you will not want to leave. A must see and make sure to get a massage while you are there, you wont regret the visit.

“A Wondeful Weekend”

El Morocco Inn & Spa

5 of 5 stars
California, USA
Feb 27, 2008

The El Morocco is a fantastic little place. The hosts are beyond gracious and will cater to your every whim. The room was fantastic. The pool and jacuzzi wonderful and open all night. The breakfast was great. The massages were best we had ever received. The chocolate covered strawberries were devine. There wasn't a single thing I would change about our weekend there!

“The Perfect Inn You Will Ever Find!”

2/2 found this review helpful

My Boyfriend and I were looking for a B & B Inn for the weekend in Palm Springs and of course we searched for the best ones in the area. El Morocco Inn & Spa came up as #1 in Desert Hot Springs (about 10 mins from Palm Springs) so we decided that this will be the one! And boy did we make the right decision! Not only did we have a great time but we actually felt like we were in Morocco!!!!!!!!!! Excellent decor that takes you away from the bustling LA life and into a more intimate and exotic setting. Bruce, Steve and John are the most sweetest and accomodating owners! We love them!! We stayed in the Sultans Playpen which I think was the most fun and comfy room! The round King bed was awesome! It was spacious and comfortable! The bathroom was also very roomy and clean! We made use of the facilities! The swimming pool is nice and warm... Jacuzzi was the best! I actually sat in there about twice a day :) They also have a happy hour that we both enjoyed... try the Morocco-tinis! Delicious! ;) Overall we loved everything about the Inn. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking to relax and just pamper themselves! If you like the fake modern resorts where they dont care and just send you to your room then this is not the place for you. This was well worth the money! ;)

Sincerely,
Kristen & Arvin

3/3 found this review helpful

A little funky at first viewing but the follow-through was wonderful, comfortable clean beautiful rooms, pool/hot tub/firepit and outdoor bar, completely charming hosts who did everything for us, best breakfast spread we've ever had, even the other guests are worth commenting on, congenial, and quiet! Our experience here was far superior to stays at more expensive hotels.

“It's a Home Run!”

El Morocco Inn & Spa

5 of 5 stars
Mt. Airy, MD
Feb 5, 2008
4/4 found this review helpful

Every once in a while in your travels, you hit the Home Run. My wife and I did just this by staying at the El Morocco Inn for 4 nights as part of our trip to the Palm Springs area to celebrate our anniversary. The Inn is an enchanting, romantic place that is truly an oasis. Bruce and Steve, who are brothers, and John own the place, and are very hospitable and generous. They have created quite a place. It is EASY to relax here. When Bruce and Steve found out it was our anniversary, they acknowledged it with a nice surprise. They enjoyed engaging us and other guests in conversation and storytelling. Everything about the inn is great. To mention a few: the expansive continental breakfast; the exotic flavor and comfort of our room; the library, which has a fireplace and a large screen TV where the movies "Casablanca" and the "Road To Morocco" play 24 hours a day; the hot springs-fed pool and large spa; and the daily Happy Hour where Morocco-tinis are served. Also, my wife and I each took in a massage at the Inn that was terrific! El Morocco has a couple of spa treatment rooms on the premises, and are in the process of expanding the spa capability with a "Spa Garden". This place is the most unique place that we have ever stayed. If you like the thrill of hitting a Home Run, the El Morocco Inn is it. We will definitely be back.
