"Spring Getaway: Palm Desert" Seattle Mag, May 2026

Mojave Resort feels like the platonic ideal of a reimagined desert motel: mid-century lines painted sunburnt orange, a bright blue pool framed by dark green turf. Rooms sit just steps away, close enough that a robe- and-flip-flops shuffle into the water becomes part of the daily rhythm, from morning coffee to late-night soaks in the hot tub. There’s no bar, but the minibar is thoughtfully stocked, and breakfast—muffins, fruit, yogurt—arrives quietly each morning at your door. It’s everything you need, and not one thing you don’t.

"8 Design-Forward Hotels to Book in Greater Palm Springs if You’re an Aesthete" Palm Springs Life, June 2026

Close your eyes and imagine “midcentury chic,” and Mojave Resort is likely the vision that comes to mind — low-slung lines, breeze blocks, and just the right hit of cadmium orange. Thoughtful details include pill-shaped bathroom tiles, starburst-patterned drinkware, terrazzo flooring, and vintage roadside-motel-style key tags. Amenities include breakfast boxes, bicycles, and a cocktail shaker–shaped pool. Small dogs are welcome.

Great vintage resort close to everything

“My wife and I stayed here one night (wish it could have been more!) on our way back to Texas from the L.A. area. We found the Mojave to be a great mid-century resort that was quiet, comfortable, and close to lots of sights in the Palm Springs area.”

So cute!

“What an unexpected treat to stay at the Mojave Resort. The location is within walking distance of shops and restaurants. Rooms are so cute with a 40’s/50’s cabin vibe and the grounds are immaculate and lush with a refreshing saltwater pool.”

Wonderful place to be

“We picked this boutique hotel for a few reasons, it was walking distance to downtown and it got great reviews. We were not disappointed one little bit!”
