Boats, Birds and Bon Appetite

Desert Springs will turn your next Palm Desert vacation into a Southern California experience. Upon entering The Desert Springs JW Marriott Resort & Spa, you can't help but feel you've been transported to a tropical paradise.

Water, water everywhere! Our glittering pools and lakes entice you to splash, dash and cool off in this dazzling desert escape. As the sun warms you, you'll hear the calypso music of a steel drum band calling you poolside. Stroll through the colonnade of inviting boutiques on your way to a day of fun in the sun.

As mascots of free spirits, hummingbirds are a flutter throughout the grounds, while exotic parrots, macaws and cockatoos inhabit the magnificent lobby with the feel of a breezy tropical oasis. On the lower lobby level, a gondola awaits you to board for a boat ride to your favorite resort dining spot or an afternoon tour or customized charter of your own.
