Looking for Palm Springs Experience
We are driving to Palm Springs for Memorial Day weekend to use up our Time Share Points before they expire.
I was just looking for any advice...esp if anyone knows anything about spas..I need to RELAX!

Can't speak about spas although I know they have them in plenty, but either under Marriott or Trip Reports, someone (Sweet Willie I think) did a relatively recent write-up re: Palm Springs, etc. Do a search. Cheers.

Ever hear of TwoBunchPalms?
I think www.twobunchpalms.com
This is a small 'hide-a-way' located just north of Palm Springs. So if you're looking for lots to do, this isn't the place.
You'll hardly see anyone here. Very calm and relaxing. Great property. Basic rooms are acceptable. If you have some $$$, you'll be 'wowed!' by the more expensive rooms.
The website is very detailed.
And the spa services...
And the food...
And the very romantic fireplace...

Don't know if you need to be a guest, but LA Times had an article on Palm Spring hotels/spas yesterday in the travel section. Places mentioned as having new great spas include Estrella www.estrella.com, Hyatt Grand Champions Resort & Spa (just opened 30,000sqft spa) www.grandchampions.hyatt.com, La Quinta Resourt & Club www.laquintaresort.com
