Coffee on our balcony deck, Deserts Springs Marriott
|
This past weekend, we bid on fancy hotels in the Palms Springs area using Priceline, so we could get away cheaply for a few days. The deal is that you get a good price, but you don't know what hotel you're going to until you hit the "pay" button. We got a room at one of the mega Marriott resorts in the area, poetically named Desert Springs. As you can see in the photo above, the complex is surrounded by a lush and heavily irrigated golf course (California drought, anyone?). It also has four massive pools, six restaurants, mini golf, and over 800 rooms, surrounding an eight story atrium. Impressed? It also has an artificial lake with a boat dock. Still not impressed? The boat dock is IN THE LOBBY. Every night you can hop in the canopied boats and putt around in the waterways that ring the hotel. I've haven't talked Steven into doing this yet.

In the meantime, we picked a pool and hung out for the day. Self explanatory picture below.
