The continental breakfast buffet is somewhat sparse, The only warm food option is bread and bagels, if you choose to toast them yourself. The coffee was good. Also, this place is intended for couples. If sharing with a plutonic friend, just be aware that the bathrooms are open to the room (except for the toilet), so privacy is minimal. We managed fine, but we'd stayed here before so we knew the layout.

I have celebrated a number of quiet birthdays here. Greeted warmly and discovered welcoming champagne and resort hats in the room. The grounds are bucolic and peaceful. The rooms have been updated. The interiors have been painted in a rustic whitewash (huge improvement over the exposed wood, which made the rooms feel quite dark). Each room boasts its own enclosed, private back patio. The fire pit adds a special charm to the communal area.

The staff was attentive and very courteous. The bungalow we stayed in was clean and tastefully decorated.

The F word was showcased in The Barn restaurant area. Don’t understand the reason for the vulgarity in an otherwise delightful room.

Quaint and quiet.

Not a darn thing was bad

This hotel is one of my favs. Love the redesign to make the space brighter than the last time I was there. It was hot as hell in the desert but the made sure to keep the whole area cool and refreshing. The rooms were spacious, private patios on point, and of course, poolside life was exactly why we came here. The staff is also amazing and helpful throughout the day.

I enjoyed all of it

I liked the serenity and access to the food/water and drinks.

Stayed in July 2024

All was wonderful, but the walls can be a bit thin. The room next to us showering or bathing late at night was very loud. The wonderful experience of this place out weighted that though.

The Sparrow was such a nice relaxing place with wonderful hospitality. The perfect spot for peaceful holiday. Hospitality was top notch and so friendly a welcoming.

The Wi-Fi is TERRIBLE and that could be the make or break on whether we return in the future

Staff was friendly but not overbearing. Breakfast was wonderful and the pool was perfect! The room is large and bed was comfy.

Stayed in April 2024

Food and drinks were excellent - everything from the complimentary breakfast to the two dinners we had there, and all the snacks in between. The pool was lovely and we always had available lounge chairs. The property was very peaceful, even on a busy weekend in Palm Springs, and the staff was attentive. We hope to go back regularly.

Couple of hiccups. We requested an extra bed in our room and were advised via email that we'd be charged for this, then when we arrived we were told that extra beds are not possible due to fire hazard laws. We requested the massage service but told an hour later it was not available due to availability. At 1pm we reserved dinner for 7pm. When we arrived for dinner we were told there was not seating available outside in the beautiful, romantic, candlelit garden, but instead in the small indoor reception/lounge area which was not ideal. Were we told this when we booked we would have simply booked dinner at one of the other 50 other restaurants in town. We were advised we should have booked at least a week in advance. On checkout we were told our bill for expenses incurred would be emailed to us; it was not. We were also told the manager would call us to discuss our experience staying at the lodge, which did not happen.

The accommodation and facilities matched what I saw online. The location is great. The staff are friendly. The food and beverages are good. There were small personal touches that were appreciated. It was a good stay, but not without issue.

Parking. Was tough to find a spot at times and somebody backed into our rental car which damaged it.

Everything was great.

Our room was never cleaned during our stay, even though we hung the YES sign out daily. Also, we asked for extra towels a few times and did not receive any until the day before checking out. Also, we were told the chef was making eggs Sunday morning, but the hostess seemed to know nothing about it.

food was great loved the atmosphere in the barn staff was friendly massage tent was a nice added bonus

I wish they still offered room service.

Our favorite place to visit and unwind. Plenty of places to lounge and your own patio is also a nice touch of privacy.

Quiet, great taste, wonderful bar and resto

Stayed in April 2023

We enjoyed everything -- might be nice to have suggested quiet hours for the pool/jacuzzi, but that's it!

Loved the unique style and attention to detail around the entire property, sort of a glamorous adult summer camp vibe. We enjoyed the fire pits, the pool, the stone showers in the rooms, and the artwork/design around the property. It's clear that a lot of love and attention to detail was put into the lodge. Breakfast was yummy, staff was friendly and attentive. Appreciated that the music was chill and not too loud around the pool. Our whole stay was super relaxing -- we'll be back!

Stayed in June 2023

Everything was exceptional — dinner, drinks, pool/spa, room, linens, etc. That being said, the best part was the staff. Shawn (the chef), Abbey, Colby and all the others on staff were so kind, attentive and genuine. I can’t remember everyone else’s names (Audrey?), but they are the biggest reason we would come back. Thank you!

Just oozing with charm. Such a special place. The service was wonderful. We also had a candlelit meal on the property under a citrus arbor. Fantastic. Every detail was thought of and the staff went above and beyond. Wonderful place for a romantic getaway.
