Larry and Patty don't treat you like a guest. They treat you like family. Like you've been a part of them for years. They make you feel so at home when you're away from home. I have never met any other owners of a hotel that have been so open and friendly. This is the only palce I will stay... More

Our recent second visit confirms that the Desert Riviera certainly earns its accolades. Believe the positive reviews...we didn't want to leave because Patty and Larry made us feel so much at home. And nothing beats a warm swimming pool! Early morning laps are a pleasure in the 85 degree water. Evenings around the fire pit are a great place to... More

What a delightful place to stay--I didn't want to leave. Attention to detail, amazing customer service and even a Super Bowl party when we were there. I can honestly say I've never stayed in a hotel where I felt more comfortable and more looked after. It really was like staying with friends. Thank you so much Patty, Larry, Steve, Judy... More

After a long car trip across the Mojave desert we were greeted by a glass of wine and a friendly chat well before we had checked in. This is a very stylish and intimate hotel with retro furnished rooms grouped around a pool and spa. The hotel also offers so much - big beds, bikes for day time touring, a... More

Absolutely lovely! This hotel is really something out of the ordinary. Stayed there for two nights and the only thing we regret are that we didn't stayed there longer. The hotel with all its pleasant features is excellent, but what really makes this a special place are the people. And with the people I refer to both the owners, the... More

This is the place to stay if you don't want to feel like a "number" in some big corporate hotel. The owners actually work on-site at times. The staff (& owners) is extremely nice, helpful, knowledgeable and accommadating. Clean, comfortable room. Good bed. Free movie dvd's. Book exchange. Really nice, heated pool with good chairs & lounges. Nice whirlpool hot... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our three-night stay at the Desert Riviera Hotel. The four of us booked our two rooms after reading the rave reviews on Trip Advisor and we were not disappointed. The hotel staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful in suggesting activities and restaurants. The rooms and grounds were immaculate and the beds were quite comfortable. The pool and... More

From the friendly greeting by the Limo driver at the PSP airport-it was Larry the owner-to the welcome drinks, 92 degree pool, fire pit chats with folks from around the world and the home grown grapfruit we had a great time during our 4 night stay. In fact we changed our return plans so we could come back the following... More

I selected the Desert Riviera based upon the wonderful reviews listed on TripAdvisor. All the great compliments about the staff at Desert Riviera are completely correct. They treated my wife and I like we were close personal friends, even though we had never stayed there. The room was clean, the bed very comfortable. The pool area is fantastic, very relaxing... More
