My stay at The Willows was mostly amazing, thanks to the beautiful grounds and super friendly staff. The location was perfect for exploring Palm Springs, and my room was incredibly comfortable. However, I did have a frustrating interaction with a cleaning staff member that left a sour note on my experience.

I had an amazing stay at The Willows, feeling like I was at a cozy hacienda with beautiful views and great privacy. The service was genuinely accommodating, making me feel welcomed throughout my visit. One downside was that while the breakfast was generally excellent, there were a few days when it didn't quite meet the high standards I expected, but overall it was still delicious. My room was lovely, but I did notice that some amenities like the shower could have been better designed. 🌴🥂

My stay at The Willows Palm Springs was nothing short of really good. The delicious gourmet breakfasts overlooking the waterfall were a highlight, though I would have enjoyed some afternoon coffee options. The atmosphere was tranquil, but the evening social hour was a good way to connect with the few other guests present.
