California Desert and its attractions for beach lovers

While the California Desert may not be home to traditional beaches, it offers unique experiences that appeal to beach enthusiasts looking for something different. Start your adventure at the stunning Joshua Tree National Park, where you can explore the surreal desert landscapes and enjoy rock climbing or hiking amidst the iconic Joshua trees. For a different vibe, head to the Salton Sea, where you can relax by the water’s edge, witness incredible bird watching, and even dip your toes in the warm waters. The Anza-Borrego Desert State Park is another gem, perfect for stargazing and wildflower blooms in spring, creating a beautiful contrast to the sandy terrain. For a touch of luxury, consider staying in Palm Springs, where upscale hotels often boast stunning pools that mimic the serene beach atmosphere. Many of these hotels provide a resort-style experience, complete with attentive service and amenities that cater to families, ensuring that your stay is as pampered as it is adventurous. Enjoy exploring the vibrant local art scene, indulging in gourmet dining, or taking a scenic tram ride for breathtaking views of the desert below.

"Rooms were clean but dark. The divider between the queen beds was a nice feature. Location is more budget oriented. Breakfast was good with waffles, eggs some fruit cereal bagels coffee etc. The entertainment system was a little annoying how it announced everything and limited channels to watch. There was a smoking area next to the pool and that was not great either. Overall not bad for a budget motel."

10/10 Excellent
"Great quick stay at this well-maintained property. Lovely gardens even included hummingbird feeders. Property felt secure. Lots of reviews mentioned nighttime club noise but it was 100 degrees on a Sunday night in August during our stay -- not a prime party time for Palm Springs, I'd imagine. A/C in the room was loud but we had earplugs at the ready and the room was cool and comfortable. Easy walking distance to Bill's Pizza, a new PS favorite. Hot breakfast was nice and set us up for a long day on the road. Friendly font desk staff on either end of the visit."
