The Steakhouse was a welcome site for these hungry tired travelers.

Loved the wine menu and food menu that lights up when opened.  Can’t really remember the food or wine other than there were no complaints!  ha ha

The rooms were fantastic!  Modern Chic with spa bathrooms and  huge !  Say Mad Men meets Palm Springs?!

AGUA CALIENTE TRIBE…in the beginning

The recent successes and future plans of the Agua Caliente rely on the Tribe’s steadfast belief in something bigger.

For over 2,000 years, the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians have viewed the natural hot springs located below the present day hotel at Spa Resort Casino in Palm Springs to be a place of power and healing.

It wasn’t until a United States government survey in 1853 that the spring took on new meaning — as a place for tourism and profit, based on the healing properties of the waters and the area’s dry desert air.  What they the Tribe didn’t know then was that the healing waters would also prove to be the key to their economic success.
