SANTIAGO RESORT:
CELEBRATING 30 YEARS OF GAY HOSPITALITY
Celebrating 30 years of hospitality in 2025, Santiago Resort has a long history of providing a welcoming oasis for gay men in sunny Palm Springs. Since coming under new ownership in 2015, the resort property has been meticulously updated and stylishly refreshed on an ongoing basis. Guests love the elevated men’s resort experience, raving on top review sites about Santiago’s lushly landscaped gardens, luxe guest rooms, friendly hospitality team, and tranquil vibe.
Twenty-four beautifully appointed guest rooms and suites feature pillow-top King beds, modern baths with walk-in rain showers, blazing fast Wi-Fi, and many special touches. Every room is just steps away from Santiago’s centerpiece, the largest climate-controlled swimming pool at any men’s resort in Palm Springs. Guests also enjoy a sparkling spa, an Instagram-worthy outdoor shower, and a brand-new sun deck with lots of cooling misters. And because guests enjoy spending as much time around the pool as possible, Santiago even offers complimentary continental breakfast and poolside lunch.
With nearly one thousand 5 Star guest reviews on Google and Tripadvisor combined, Santiago has earned Tripadvisor’s prestigious Traveler’s Choice award on an annual basis for more than ten years’ running. In addition, Santiago has been awarded numerous accolades including Best Gay Stay in the US by gaycities.com and OUTstanding Clothing Optional Resort by GED magazine.
Gay-owned and locally operated since 2015, the Santiago property has been continuously refreshed and updated to create one of the desert’s most elevated men’s resort experiences. Expanding on the concept, the same team opened Descanso Resort in 2021 and Twin Palms Resort in 2022. This trio of distinguished properties offers men an enticing selection of exceptional vacation destinations in the beautiful Coachella Valley desert.
