I spent a weekend here and needed to stay on a budget, so I grabbed one of the $99 rooms. I think this may have been the cheapest room in the city! The room is a little bit small, but was packed with stuff, like a fridge, freezer, microwave, coffee maker, so it had everything you would need. It was... More

I had a nice stay here when traveling from Phoenix to Lake Tahoe. The grounds are lush and a perfect place to spend a day by the pool reading a good book and throwing back a few beers. The owners Ric and Rob were very nice and upon my arrival they helped me when I was lost trying to find... More

This resort is one of our favorite places to stay and chill when in Palm Springs. The owners Ric and Rob are two of the sweetest hosts we know. They make you feel like one of the family upon arriving and yet unlike family they give you all the privacy you need to experience truly a stress free time. Speaking... More

My partners and I just spent a relaxing weekend at Tortuga del Sol. The hosts and guests were friendly and made us feel at home. Our room was clean, nicely appointed and very comfortable. Needless to say we will be back again. We look forward to seeing Ric and Rob again...

Our room was clean and well appointed, the pool is clean and warm and the Guys- Ric and Rob were wonderful hosts. Breakfast is also very good. This... More

This is a very clean place, owners were really friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean. The fan in our bathroom was removed and never replaced. Clientele was older than in other resorts but we went there at the begining of Spring. A little bit far from the gay restaurants and bars.

We stayed here last week. We chose it because the hotel had 1 dog-friendly room. We took it and immediately were thankful for our decision. The pool is perfect - warm and with mountain and garden views. The garden is beautiful and full of flowers. Our room was clean, well-appointed, and had both a kitchen and a fenced area outside...
