This was our second stay at the Santiago Resort and we continue to be very impressed with this mid-sized gay resort on the edge of south downtown Palm Springs. Located on the edge of a quiet neighborhood near South Palm Canyon Drive, the 24 rooms of the two-story hotel are clustered around beautiful gardens, an inviting swimming pool, hot tub... More

This was our first visit to Palm Springs and we are very pleased we chose the Santiago Resort. It was a great choice. A good mix of couples and singles. All very friendly and always good company. Either around the pool during the day or in the hot tub at night. Jay is doing a great job managing the resort... More

I have been coming to this resort for the past 7 years and have always enjoyed the tranquil surroundings and fantastic service provided by the Resort Manager David and his associate Ken. The resort is ideally located minutes from the downtown shops and great restaurants. it boasts secluded grounds offering a terrific heated pool, jacuzzi and hammocks. All this certainly... More

I have returned to Santiago Resort. I stayed there last year and found it very relaxing and couldn't wait to get back. It is private, rooms are great, food is great, landscaped well, and great staff. Very clean swimming pool and hot tub. David has passed and we are very sad for that. He was a very nice man. Ken... More

My husband and I have been staying at Santiago Resort every year since our first visit to Palm Springs in 2007, and have never stayed at another resort... and for good reason. The resort is beautifully landscaped with cacti, desert flowers, fountains, lemon trees and palm trees, Their swimming pool is one of the largest, if not THE largest of... More

Needed some sun the first week of March 2013 - and we got it. Not only was the weather beautiful, the resort and it's staff was fantastic. Real relaxation, friendly people, impeccable pool environment - just fantastic! Only little minus: There's no gym on the premises, but there are gyms in the vicinity. Big plus: Breakfast and lunch included!

As ever, Ken, Shawn, Oscar and the rest of the amazing staff at Santiago made our stay a wonderful experience. The resort is VERY well maintained. Hardly a bouganvilla blossom hits the ground that someone's not there to whisk it away. Seriously. Very conscientious owners, Well located -- Arenas, the restaurants, clubs, even the Thursday night market, are all within... More

You always wonder when you read reviews like these how objective the writers are. I've stayed at four different gay resorts in Palm Springs and I can promise you Santiago earns every compliment it gets. The resort is on a quiet street with three other gay resorts. Two things immediately catch your attention when you enter this resort: the grounds... More

I came to tripadvisor today to write a review of our recent stay 2 weeks ago and learned of David's passing. My partner and I have been coming to the Santiago for 12 years, matter of fact the Santiago was our first trip together as a couple. David's smiles and hugs, his hospitality has always been part of our wonderful... More
