Santiago Resort - A Gay Men's Resort

I love the grounds at Santiago, as they have lots of palm trees, blooming plants, and fruit trees. Feels like an oasis. Having a free lunch available is wonderful, so you don't need to leave the resort to eat lunch. The breakfast is healthy and generous. The location is very convenient and close to everything in Palm Springs. The staff are very eager to please, and do an excellent job. Nice to have clothing be optional at the pool, and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. I have been going there for years, and it only has gotten better.

Our first time at Santiago Resort and we both absolutely loved our stay. Such a beautifully presented boutique hotel, I can't recommend it enough. The perfect balance of Palm Spring's elegance and laid back luxury. The service from all of the team really was outstanding - professional, relaxed, thoughtful, discreet. The best bit about out stay was meeting many of the other guests, having really nice chats over the warming bubbles of the hot tub. We'll definitely be back!

Santiago is one of a kind. Other resorts try to deliver the same atmosphere and value, but fall short. Santiago delivers on facilities (always spotless,) staff (always cheerful and can-do,) and location. We have been regular guests over the last six years and will be returning again to enjoy the unique mix of quality accommodation, fanatical attention to detail, and mix of interesting and accessible guests that Santiago delivers. There are few exclusively gay venues that strive for top quality. Santiago is one, and I can’t recommend it highly enough!

The service and attention to detail are what stands out the most at this fantastic resort. Rooms are well appointed and simply and tastefully decorated. The pool, hot tub, fire pit, outdoor showers, dining area, and landscaping are immaculate and staff are constantly working to ensure that everyone is comfortable and satisfied. Daily continental breakfasts and catered lunches offer good choice and selection and are two meals you need not worry about during your stay. All of this positivity rubs off on the guests who, during my stay, were friendly and respectful. Santiago is a desert gem.

This was our second time staying at Santiago Resort, and once again, it exceeded our expectations. It truly feels like a place you come back to—not just a hotel, but a community. The staff is absolutely amazing, from the reception team to everyone working throughout the resort. They are welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind, always making sure you feel comfortable and well taken care of. One of the highlights is the daily breakfast, which offers a lovely and complete range of options, perfect for starting the day. The included lunch option—whether a sandwich or a salad—is a thoughtful touch that adds real value and convenience to the stay. The environment strikes a perfect balance: sophisticated yet down to earth. Most of the guests are friendly, open, and easygoing. Of course, you m
