Just got back from Memorial Day weekend at the JW. Took our 2 kids ages 8 and 10. Had not stayed at this Marriott before, but decided to try it based on reviews. Positives: 1. Gorgeous hotel and lobby. Lobby bar/and view is amazing. 2. Kids loved the boat rides to the Mikado Restaurant and around. 3. Mikado Restaurant fantastic.... More

From Check-In to Room Service to practically every employee we encountered, this hotel excelled in all area's, and every employee was happy and friendly despite a very busy sold out hotel. (We were there for Stagecoach weekend.) The ONLY thing that wasn't perfect about our stay was cocktail service at the pool, we had to get out to the pools... More

We had a wonderful visit to Desert Springs Marriott Resort & Spa. Beautiful grounds, lovely newly renovated rooms, and water, water everywhere! We had an anniversary celebration there and were treated like royalty throughout our stay. A bit pricy, but well worth it.

I don't give a "5" rating lightly. This hotel/resort is superb in every respect. The service, rooms, fitness center, bars, scenery, location, restaurants and amenities are spectacular. This resort caters to well-healed golfers, spa goers, shoppers and to conference attendees. The JW experience does not come cheap, but the Palm Springs area is not "low rent". It's probably not going... More

The Desert Springs JW Marriott Resort is a beautiful property, conveniently located. Took a long weekend to workout, relax by the pool and enjoy the great desert weather. There were some good room deals available, including a package with a couple hundred dollars in resort credit. Liked our room alot. Nice spot overlooking the pools. The pool area was very... More

Close to the Freeway and has a Morton's, Ralphs and a few other shopping places across the street. Pretty grounds, and several nice restaurants on site. Good place for large business meetings. Golf course on site. Many people won't go to a national park in the desert, but Joshua Tree is very cool and only 35 minutes from Cottonwood Springs... More

Quick weekend family getaway with two 5 year olds. Fun and relaxing weekend only 2hrs from San Diego. Tips: -Ask for room near the family pool (in the afternoon, avoid the singles pools in the back - it was packed with lots of singles holding drinks and socializing) -Check out schedule and itinerary for the next day (times for bird...

Stayed mothers day weekend. From the moment I walked in the door I was impressed with the service. The management must be training the staff in this area because it stood out so much to me. The new rockwood grill was incredible and so was the ambience, food, service even the dishes were cool! The kids loved the birds and... More

Stayed here in April with 3 friends as part of the Coachella festival travel package. The resort is beautiful and the room was impeccably clean, with a great view of the mountains. We were towards the back so it was quite a distance to the lobby, but that's obviously why there is a boat in the lake that takes you... More
