Top California Desert Hotel Reviews

Miracle Springs Resort & Spa

Miracle Springs Resort & Spa

8/10 Good
"I didn’t expect August evenings to be this cool! After work, we drove from Los Angeles and met up with a few friends for a relaxing evening at the hot springs. There are several different pools to choose from, including both larger and smaller pools, so there’s something for everyone and for different age groups. The warm water, cool evening air, and good conversation made it the perfect way to unwind after a long week. The hotel is also very convenient, making the whole experience easy and relaxing. A great place for a getaway with friends or family!"
