I’ll be staying here over and over again. The place is very well maintained, it’s conveniently located, the common areas are big enough for groups, and there are quite a few surprises around the property!
This place was great. Property management was fantastic, communication leading up to and during our stay was top notch! Highly recommend this facility!

Property is very well maintained!
This was a great place for our family reunion. Owners were fantastic! Plenty of things to do in the area!
Close to downtown and 3 minute drive to the convention center. Very beautiful place. Door locks are a little flimsy but no big deal. Overall great experience
So much space, funky decor and plenty of space to hang together but also have our separate areas when needed! Would deffo stay again.

Great place and location
Everyone in my family had a great stay, from 3 to 95! Really enjoyed the pool area and fire pit. Great place for large families. Enough space to spread out but also have privacy. Can't wait to return!

great property, great owner!
our group had a blast and Jessica went out of her way to make everything seamlessly easy for all of us. i will definitely stay at El Cid next time we are in Palm Springs!
This property exceeded expectations. Very convenient to all Palm Springs has to offer, beautiful & updated decor, comfortable and spacious. The pool area was great for our whole group with plenty of shade and comfortable outdoor furniture.
I can’t imagine a better place for a group/large family getaway (especially during Covid). We had plenty of space, large bathrooms, gorgeous pool area and cozy fire pit. The place was incredibly clean and management was very responsive. I would recommend this place wholeheartedly.
Hands down the best vacation rental I have encountered! Everyone had their own space and the pool area is to die for. Communication was easy and the hosts were so helpful getting us set up with dinners, massages, etc. Already planning my next trip to come back!

AMAZING!
This place is even prettier in person than in the pictures! It is the perfect place to stay with a big group and the homeowners are so kind and helpful! I definitely recommend this for anyone who is planning to visit Palm Springs!!
I came with a group of 16 friends and we could not have had a better experience. Jen helped arrange a cocktail making class, personal chef, cooking class, and yoga class so we practically never had to leave the house! It was beautiful and so relaxing.

Absolutely perfect
I celebrated my 40th bday at this location and it was absolutely perfect. Jessica is terrific with work with, the place was spotless, the rooms were so beautiful. I would absolutely stay again and recommend anyone who wants to have a group of friends together to hang out, this is the perfect spot.
We had 12 family members stay here and we loved every moment, including my 93 yr old mother who found the handicap room easy to navigate with walker.
It’s just a fun, cool, lovely property. The rooms are spacious and it’s close to hiking trails and center of town.
I hope to return to this property again!
Our group was celebrating a 50th Birthday and had a wonderful time at the property! We loved the decor of each room, the pool and outdoor dining space. The costume closet was a huge hit! Thanks to Jennifer and Jess for making our stay memorable! We’ll be back!

Loved everything about our stay at Hotel El Cid!
Upon arrival, the host graciously helped us unload our car before the property tour, THANK YOU!! We loved the layout of the house, it worked amazingly having the separate units for a larger group. The house was super clean and well maintained. We would 100% stay here again next time we have a large group get together in Palm Springs.
All the reviews were accurate. This place is perfect for a large group wanting the privacy and playful vibe this property offers. Loved it!

Perfect wedding weekend!!!!
We got married in Palm Springs and this amazing property was big enough to accommodate my whole family. Everyone had own suite and bathroom. Amazing, central location. Pool is incredible!! Can’t say enough great things!! Would definitely stay here again! Thanks Jessica!!
Everything about this property was perfect for our girls’ trip! We were celebrating a birthday, a bride, and a high school/college reunion all in one weekend and this location was fantastic! You have everything you need if you want to stay on site your whole trip and your walking distance to all the fun of you want to hit the town. The property managers are attentive and responsive and we felt very safe and cared for during our entire stay!!
Would absolutely recommend to anyone with a group coming to Palm Springs!

Absolutely amazing property!
Was lucky enough to stay a week in this "hotel" and couldn't have had a better stay. Tim and Jessica really put their heart and decorative skills out there to ensure comfort and a community that is welcoming and chic! Will definitely be asking for another week away again soon! Thanks again!
This place is absolutely incredible! I celebrated my 50th in style last weekend with family and friends and this hotel did not disappoint! From the concierge service to the massages to the onsite catering - everything was perfect! We could not have asked or found a better location to get together safely to celebrate my special day. We will ABSOLUTELY be back again and might even check out The Marley Hotel next!!!

PS birthday vacation!
The house was great, perfect set up, suite layout, especially for all adults. Everyone had their space and then spaces to come together at the pool and the fire pit. Central location and easy access to downtown PS. The street noise was a little loud, even at night.
