My Annual Indulgence

I am in Palm Desert every year to attend the BNP Paribas Open with my girlfriend. Our indulgence is to make sure we take one day away from tennis and spend a "day at the spa" at the JW Marriott Resort & Spa. The facility is gorgeous, and once inside we do not want to leave. When you purchase a spa treatment, you have "all day" access to the fitness center and the spa facility.....we literally get into our robes, and do not take them off (except for the massage part), for a few hours. The rainforest showers are to die for (once you figure out the settings). The wet steam room is misted with eucalyptus oil scent...ahhhhh. Indoors, the hot tub is clothing optional (don't worry, ladies and gentleman have their own facilities). You can lounge in the relaxation area and have spa water or tea, and cookies. Outdoors is a salt water lap pool (bathing suit required). And we always have lunch poolside too (with wine). Best day ever. Can't wait for my next visit in March 2012 (their March special this year is 60 mins Naturopathica Aromatherapy massage for $105 (regular $145). Did I mention you can spend ALL DAY at the spa (8:00am to closing 6:00pm) with in/out privileges.

Nice spa but bogus ad on spafinder

I got a spa finder gift card because a person knew I was going to Desert Springs Marriott and when I called to make an appt, I was told that while the hotel promotes spa finder, they don't accept their gift cards. THAT MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL. "hey we think the service is great but we wont accept it." Kinda lame if you ask me. Fraudulent on spa finders part and on the hotels part.

Great Experience

The spa at the JW Marriott was a great experience. You check in and pay for your treatment first (which was a bit unusual) but speeds up the departure because you don't need to wait in line to pay when you're done. The facilities for the spa were great. The showers already had towels laid out on the private dressing benches and the staff replenished them within minutes. The steam rooms were gorgeous with sparkling glass tiles. There is a cafe inside the spa which made it convenient to have an actual lunch without having to get out of your robe. The therapists were prompt and courteous. I had a hot stone massage and my friend got the deep tissue. Both of us enjoyed our therapists and treatments. It is a wonderful spa - I hope to visit again soon.
