This Inn offers a fantastic escape with its charming Moroccan decor and inviting atmosphere. The natural mineral springs and cozy communal spaces made my stay incredibly relaxing. On the downside, the drive to Palm Springs can be a bit lengthy if you're planning to go out frequently, and the breakfast hours might not align for early risers. Overall, a delightful stay for relaxation and enjoyment.

This hotel is a charming desert oasis with a unique Moroccan theme that creates a vibrant atmosphere. The natural spring-fed pool and spa are highlights for relaxation, and the welcoming service makes you feel right at home. However, the room I was in had a bit of dustiness, which detracted from an otherwise perfect experience. The breakfast was simple but sufficient, adding to the overall value for the stay.

My stay at the resort spa was a bit of a mixed bag. The spa services were truly exceptional, especially the massages, which were among the best I've experienced. The unique Moroccan decor and tranquil gardens added a lovely touch, making it a visually enchanting place. However, the condition of the rooms left much to be desired, with issues like a musty smell and dated furniture overshadowing the positive aspects. Overall, the spa experience made it worthwhile, but the rooms need significant improvement.

My experience at the El Morocco Inn and Spa was a mix of captivating charm and some glaring flaws. The Moroccan-themed decor truly created an exotic atmosphere, and the massages at the spa were delightful. However, the state of the rooms left much to be desired, notably with unsatisfactory cleanliness and odors. While the location wasn't ideal, being far from great dining options, the inviting pool area was a highlight of the stay.
