If you love getting away from it all and you love the desert you MUST stay at the Casa de los Desperados. This desert retreat was just what we were looking for–a rustic (but not too rustic) escape from the hustle of Los Angeles. We stayed in the main house which was an eclectic combination of spanish hacienda and old... More

We had a terrific stay at Casa de los Desperados. The property is located in Whitewater Canyon, about a 15 minute drive from downtown Palm Springs and less than two miles off the I-10. Though you’re only a few minutes off the freeway you feel like you are hundreds of miles removed from civilization. It’s a wonderfully quiet and tranquil... More

We arrived at this beautiful home around 4:00p.m. on Friday and at that very moment we left behind the world and we surrounded ourselves with all the good vibes from Wayne & Michael (awesome guys); this B&B is beautiful with great antique pieces and a classy design that you can tell how much the owners care about the B&B experience...

We spent two nights with Wayne and Michael in their stunning Casa Los Desperados in the nature reserve / desert outside Palm Springs. It was perfect. in every way. The views are amazing. I took an early morning walk up the gorge, accompagnied by friendly Gianni, the boxer who stole our hearts. Beautiful desert. It feels like the middle of... More

No disappointment here. All a (happy) surprise. In short, the owners have put together a venue that’s both comfortable and also desert-stylish. It's really a combination that “works”. That said, don’t let the location be a surprise: the place isn’t close into town. But that’s actually its charm: you can literally get-away-from-it-all and yet still be near one of the... More

Casa de los Desperados is everything (and more) you are looking for in a unique and outstanding location to escape the everyday. The setting in the pristine wilderness preserve provides rest and quiet when you want it and is still only minutes away from the city. The stellar cuisine is a testament to the hosts' prowess and deserving of awards... More

Casa de los Desperados, wow... what a true gem! Nestled at the base of a hidden canyon, this property is a beautiful escape. It has recently been beautifully restored, with great attention given to design and aesthetic detail of the lodge. And there is a dead cool Airstream in which you can also stay! The food is fantastic and believe... More

We loved staying at B&B Casa de los Desperados! The beautiful sunsets, comfy bedrooms, delicious breakfast, hot tub, all while feeling as if you're far away from the daily stresses of life! You can totally unwind and relax there but you're also only minutes away from the Palm Springs night life, casinos, restaurants, spas, shops, Joshua tree or whatever your... More

What beautiful views, comfortable rooms, and great hosts. The breakfast is great, and I think someone else mentioned that you can also have dinner there, and it is well worth it. It is nice to be just the short drive from the village of Palm Springs. This is a very special place, and we hope to go back before too... More

Absolutely loved this place. Had been to Palm Springs several times before (usually staying off the main road that goes through the centre of the town/valley), and we really enjoyed getting out of Palm Springs a bit to visit Joshua Tree park, or going up the cable car to experience a different cliimate. This time around a friend recommended this... More
