Highs & Lows

  • The Saguaro offers you all the quintessential desert vibes you’d expect in Palm Springs at a reasonable nightly rate.

  • The amenities are more than you could hope for with a rocking pool bar, on-site restaurant, coffee bar, daily yoga, and relaxed vacation-mode atmosphere.

  • The perfect place to get away with a group of friends. Whether it’s for a bachelorette weekend, a couple’s escape or a college friend reunion, this is an amazing location for getting the band together for some fun in the sun.

  • Wishing you could bring your favorite 4-legged friend with you to Palm Springs? Great! The Saguaro is ready to welcome your dog for a small $50 fee for your entire stay. Now that’s something to wag about.

  • Not looking to party? Oops…you may have missed the memo. From the music, to the pool service, to the spontaneous sunset dancing that tends to erupt without notice, you definitely are in the mix when staying at The Saguaro Palm Springs.

  • Sun is the name of the game when you’re in Palm Springs so if you expect to get your tan on by the pool you better wake up early to grab a lounger before they all get scooped up…I’m talking like before 9am.
