Warm Sands Villas (Closed Permanently)

(24 Ratings)
Classic and tasteful Warms Sands villa
The Warm Sands Villa has been around since the '30s, with many movie stars among its guests. Today it keeps a traditional and comfortable feel with charming Spanish-style buildings and grounds. Enjoy the sun or evening refreshments at the pool.

Wonderful Stay!

We loved it here! The room was clean, comfortable and nicely decorated, and I've never had a more helpful and friendly host than Dan and the others I met here. They were so cordial and attentive. The atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing. The pool and grounds were beautiful, and there was no late-night noise or disturbance. A great stay!

Can't wait to return

I had the good fortune to go not only go to Palm Springs this past March, but to extend my trip. This meant that I had to move to a different resort for the remainder of my stay and that is where Warm Sands Villas came in. I was given a tour of the facilities where I discovered everything was clean, tidy and well kept. When I checked in, the staff couldnt have been friendlier. I was shown my room, also very clean. My room had a bar fridge and microwave oven, and of course a full bathroom well supplied with towels and soaps. There were tons of shelves and lots of room to put away all of my things. The room had air conditioning (and I think heat, but I didnt need to try that out)! There was a tv, small and outdated (not flat screen) and didnt have hookups for an mp3 player. Wifi was available in my room and on the grounds, however I had some troubles getting a strong signal in my room. The staff were concerned about that and did everything they could to ensure I had an internet connection. The staff that made up the room each day did a fantastic job, and added some personal touches that put a smile on my face when I came back to my room. Breakfast hours were long (I tend to be a late riser) with plenty to choose from. It consisted of fresh fruit, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, toast, cereals, juice, milk, coffeeand probably more, but I can say that I was more than satisfied. It was available in a large, bright sunny room. You could eat there or take breakfast out to the courtyard and eat in the sun. Warm Sands is conveniently located where most, if not all, of the gay resorts are and within walking distance of shopping, restaurants and night life. There was plenty of parking available on-site. The courtyard has a pool and hot tub. There is a firepit for cool evenings. Lots of lounge chairs and some tables with umbrellas. The grounds are nicely landscaped. Music is playing in the background: not loud, but you can hear it. There werent a lot of shady areas to sit and no misters that I saw, but I could find refuge from the hot sun. All of the people staying there were also friendly, but of course that would vary for any stay. If you are looking for a place to relax, in a clothing optional place that isnt like a 24/7 bathhouse, this would be the place to go. One of the things I liked the best was the 5pm happy hour. The staff would bring out wine and nibbles for a couple of hours. This brought people together to talk and meet in an informal way. Staff and/or owners were always nearby making sure the wine didnt run out and often joining in on conversations. I felt at home. Anything I asked for was provided, even when that meant going above and beyond. I cant say enough good things about this place. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend Warm Sands and I look forward to going back.

Great Place!

Friendly and professional staff. Clean and welcoming place to stay. Cruisy enough if you are into that, but not too cruisy. I have stayed at several places in Palm Springs and keep coming back to Warm Sands. Simply the best!

Reviews not needed

This was our 4th visit to Warm Sand villa. It is so comfortable there that we never thought reviews were needed. Doesn't every one know that is is a great place to stay. We are more mature ( that means over 50) and we never feel that we are the unwanted parents at a youth party. That doesn't mean that there are only the aged as clients. There is a good mix of ages and they all mix. The pool during the day is friendly but not raucous. The evening happy hour social is the best ice breaker we have ever witnessed. Breakfast is the same quality week days as on weekends. Something that is not consistent at other guest houses.The staff are personable and always helpful. Just ask and you will receive(if it isn't illegal or painful). Go see and enjoy T&d
