Long weekend stay.

I didnt get the room I booked. I booked a rok. With a partial view of the pool and didnt get that. The toilet paper in the room was of low quality for a luxury hotel. Victor the server at the Rockwood restaurant was top notch. Toilet seat is too high for anyone under 6 feet. One can barely touch the ground. Service was excellent.

Really nice place but we got here and the system was down and the only reason we came was for the boat ride. We understand things happen but they should have sent out an email to let us know we waited so long to finally get in to your room. But I must say extremely great service the staff was amazing.

I didn't like the fact that they just let anyone come to the property and use the pool area. Also, my room overlooked the lobby, which made it very hard to sleep at night due to the noise.

Quiet rooms. A bit of music while at the pool but expected. Convenient location to palm desert and the entire valley. Yes, a bit expensive but the cost for maintaining gorgeous grounds.

Beautiful lobby and hotel grounds. Rooms are updated but still seem a little rundown for some reason. Not awful, but not what I normally expect from a JW property. The pool area really needs a refresh as well. Feels more like a theme park hotel than a luxury property. If you’re looking for a family friendly stay - this fits the bill. Lots of dining options to please everyone, thoughtful family friendly touches, and the boats are a fun feature. If you’re looking for a chill weekend in PS I would stay elsewhere.

The physical layout with the large atrium/lobby was very unique and appealing. Also the pool scene was large and accommodating. It was a nice overall layout that provided a good walkable experience. The dining options were good w/ 3 choices for dinner but really only 1 (not including Starbucks) for breakfast. The rooms were average and could use some updating. The shower/toilet enclosure was clunky and not very functional especially concerning the shower door as water leaked underneath the door consistently. Also the in room safe didn’t work

First and foremost I highly recommend this hotel. The grounds, staff, room accommodation are excellent! Our first time visiting and we had a fantastic time. Played 18 hole golf & the course was in great conditions, definitely worth it. If I had to say any constructive criticism it would be these minor issues: arcade/game room had about 1/4 of the games not working; and room service is pretty pricey.
