We had a delightful two-night stay at Sparrows. This was our fourth visit to Palm Springs; our third in a boutique hotel, and our first stay here. We absolutely loved it. In fact, we wanted to extend our stay but unfortunately they did not have any rooms available. The rooms are adorable - ours had a little private outdoor seating area in the back complete with a hammock. The pool and hot tub were amazing and very quiet as Sparrows is a 21+ resort. We loved the piped in misters! We enjoyed dinner in the gorgeous garden seating area and lunch by the pool both days. The service was amazing and every member of the team was friendly and very helpful. We can't wait to return!

This was our third Sparrows getaway in the past four years, and it's still the best reason to go to Palm Springs. Except to hike, there's really now reason to ever leave. We've stayed in three different rooms, which have all been unique. The food is probably the best that PS has to offer and we've met such great people at meals, the fire pit and the pool. Thanks to the Sparrows team for another incredible weekend.

Everything about Sparrows Lodge made us feel at home. The staff are the nicest people and always so helpful. It's a calming oasis that we felt as soon as we arrived. We were there during Modernism week and Sparrows was the perfect place to flop and recover after a long day. The swimming pool is blissful and the perfect warm temperature. We had planned to eat out a lot but we loved staying in the

I didn't stay here but I think I will next time! I came to Barn Kitchen for brunch and had such a wonderful time. I love the ambiance of the space, the gorgeous trees, all of the books inside. I sat and read their books for a long time, enjoying my coffee and the beautiful day. The staff were so delightful, warm and helpful. I loved chatting with them and learning more about Sparrows Lodge. Damaris was especially helpful and even offered me a small tour in case I want to stay at Sparrows Lodge next time I visit, and I think I will!

What an amazing time we had at the Lodge. After a crazy few days of Modernism week we were overwhelmed by sensory overload and it was a nice place to relax and rest from the craziness. From the comfortable beds and pillows to the well stocked bathroom, everything was perfect but it's the extra touches that make it worth the trip. We loved walking into our room and smelling the scent they had in our room but the best part was the fact that they burn sage on the property and the cleansing smell was so amazing. I looked forward to that every day. Steven at the spa gave one of the best massages I've ever had and Cody and the staff were very helpful. We will definitely be back.

Steven and the massage tent were my two favorite parts of Sparrows Lodge. I had one of the best massages of my life. Thank you! The pool is lovely too, as are the fruit trees. This little oasis provides a very relaxing stay.

The Sparrow Lodge was the highlight of our Palm Springs trip. It is a hidden, quiet, garden with dappled light, fruit tress and friendly faces. We had a tiny miscommunication about a message (which was amazing- thank you Steven!) but the staff was able to accommodate us—with surprising kindness and generosity—which can only come from people who honestly love what they do and where they work. We hope to be back to spend more time in this lovely and and special place. - K. Green (the original)
