Joshua Tree is an easy day trip. Lots of things to do in Palm Springs, like the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway. Our daughter loved relaxing by the pool and felt really pampered when she could order a virgin pina colada and charge it to the room while lounging poolside.
Just an FYI, the JW Desert Springs during Spring Break gets more crowded towards Easter Weekend with families and smaller children and all of the Easter festivities going on (Easter Egg Hunt, Easter Bunny pictures, etc).

Good to know! I wondered if this property was family friendly or more party oriented. We learned about how crowded those JW resorts can be when we stayed at JW Desert Ridge over Easter. It was a MADHOUSE! And then cleared out the next day to a large extent.
