Great stay! Wonderful property and staff. Comfortable rooms and nicely appointed amenities. Only concern was noise from the 2nd floor. I heard every step my upstairs neighbor took during my stay. Next time, and there will be a next time, I’ll request a 2nd floor room.

We had the best time at this property! We came to Palm Springs for coachella and this resort was the perfect way to relax before, during, and after all the fun! It’s close to downtown and tons of restaurants. Most of the bars are also conveniently located near by! We will def be back next year!

It was wonderful I enjoyed the vibes and and scenery around the hotel the room was very comfortable and clean. I was looking forward to the jacuzzi and I fortunately for me it was out of identity whole trip and was the main reason I picked Santiago. I am happy with the staff they are very friendly and welcoming and provide top quality service. I recommend if ever in Palm Springs this is the place to stay.

Great hotel / resort They had everything you could need And the staff were friendly and the manager Kent was super. I would definitely stay here again. The only area of improvement would be to better sound proof the rooms. Especially the second story room floors. Other than that it was perfect.

Excellent stay, beautiful and relaxing resort

The Santiago is one of the best places where my husband and I have had to pleasure of staying. From the beautiful cactus gardens and many palm trees to the tasteful pool area furnishings, the overall impression is of quiet, relaxing luxury. The rooms are also furnished with a very comfortable bed, very nice bath amenities, and tasteful art photography. The free breakfast and lunch are a standout feature which enabled us to stay on-property and feel more like we had “moved in” for the duration of our stay. The service from the staff is unfailingly friendly and accommodating. All that is missing is a bar to serve wine or cocktails to enjoy poolside. We would have also liked to have been able to view newscasts (CNN, etc.), which are not available on the television system in the rooms. We recommend the Santiago without reservation and recommend it highly. We will come back here on our next trip to Palm Springs!

Wellness trip

I have stated here a few times and enjoy the atmosphere. If you don’t choose the right room, it can be a bit noisy in the evening hours. Staff was very attentive and accommodating. Checkout is at 11am, but during my recent visit, while laying at pool, they came in and serviced my room for next guest before I even checked out. They never changed my sheets and makes me wonder now if my sheets were clean. I will still return but made sure management was informed .
