Spa Resort Casino

Spa Resort Casino has become a real cornerstone of the Palm Springs gaming scene since it opened its doors in the mid-2000s. It's situated right in the heart of the desert, where locals and visitors from LA and San Diego make the drive to escape the hustle. What really sets it apart is how they've managed to blend the casino floor with actual spa amenities—not just a half-hearted pool, but real treatments that people actually book. You'll see everyone from serious poker players to couples looking for a weekend getaway, which honestly keeps the atmosfere fresh and interesting. The staff here genuinely remembers regulars, and there's a real community feel that's pretty rare in this industry.

📖Our Story

History of Spa Resort Casino

From its founding in to today, Spa Resort Casino has grown into one of the region's most trusted gaming and entertainment destinations.

Grand Opening

The casino opened as a joint venture between tribal leadership and local investors who had a genuine vision for bringing quality gaming and wellness to the area. The original building wasn't huge by today's standards, but it had this modern desert aesthetic that felt clean and welcoming—nothing dark and smoky like the old casinos you'd see elsewhere. They started with about 350 slot machines and a solid poker room with maybe 12 tables, which was exactly what the comunity needed at the time. The grand opening drew hundreds of locals and regional visitors with lines wrapping around the building because people were genuinely curious about what this new venture would bring to Palm Springs.

Spa Expansion

Around 2010, management made the smart decision to lean into the spa concept, which really differentiated them from every other casino in Southern California. They invested in bringing in licensed massage therapists, building out treatment rooms, and adding a decent fitness center that regulars still talk about. This move attracted a different crowd—not just gamblers, but people who wanted a complete wellness experience, which honestly changed the vibe in a positive way. Locals started bringing their spouses who weren't necessarily into gaming, and suddenly you had whole families spending weekends here instead of one person gambling while the other got bored.

Major Renovation & Room Additions

The casino underwent a substantial renovation that added about 80 hotel rooms and completely updated the gaming floor with new slot machines and better lighting—no more of that dingy casino feeling. They renovated the resturant too, bringing in a chef who actually understood desert hospitality and sourced local ingredients when possible. The poker room got expanded to around 18 tables, attracting more serious players from the region. This was also when they started really investing in their player loyalty program, which wasn't just generic points—they actually made rewards meaningful for regular visitors.

Modern Amenities & Community Investment

Recently, the casino put real money into upgrading their outdoor pool area and adding a newer spa wing with updated equipment and a bigger menu of treatments that people were actually asking for. They've also become more active in the local Palm Springs comunity, sponsoring youth sports and contributing to local charities in ways that feel genuine, not just for PR. The hotel rooms got modernized with better tech and actual quality bedding that people appreciate. What's impressed me most is how they've managed to grow without losing that personal touch—the management team still walks the floor and actually knows regular customers by name.

🍽️Dining & Drinks

Restaurants & Bars at Spa Resort Casino

$$$

Steakhouse

The Steakhouse

The Steakhouse delivers upscale dining in a warm, wood-paneled setting that feels more like a high-end country club than a desert casino restaurant. Their Prime rib is the signature dish—a generous cut that's perfectly aged and seasoned, and regulars also swear by the bone-in ribeye and the surprisingly excellent lobster tail special. The atmosphere strikes that balance between sophisticated and comfortable; you'll see everyone from locals celebrating anniversaries to business travelers closing deals over cocktails, and the service staff knows regular customers by name. Wine selection is robust with California heavy hitters and some nice international options, though prices run about 30% above retail like most casino restaurants. Reservations are essential on weekends, and requesting a booth rather than a table gives you that intimate feel, especially if your timing is around 7pm when the place is bustling but not chaotic.

$$

Bar and Lounge

Spa Lounge & Bar

The Spa Lounge is where you actually want to hang out between gaming sessions—it's got that relaxed, almost resort-y vibe rather than the aggressive casino bar energy you might expect. The craft cocktails are solid with creative house specialties like their "Desert Rose" made with prickly pear and local spirits, though you can also just grab a cold beer or classic martini depending on your mood. Live entertainment runs Thursday through Saturday with everything from jazz trios to local rock bands, and the bartenders genuinely know how to mix drinks instead of just pouring heavy-handed well liquor. Tuesday and Wednesday nights are quieter with a solid local crowd playing pool and enjoying happy hour pricing, while weekends bring a more mixed tourist and local blend. Locals recommend arriving around 8pm on live music nights to snag a decent seat before the place fills up; the happy hour (4-6pm) draws a solid after-work crowd that's usualy professional folks from the area.

$

Cafe

The Daily Grind Cafe

The Daily Grind Cafe is your go-to spot for morning coffee and quick bites without leaving the resort—it opens early at 7am, which is perfect if you're staying overnight and want breakfast before hitting the tables. They serve solid espresso drinks, fresh pastries that arrive daily from a local bakery, and excellent breakfast sandwiches with real bacon and fresh eggs that beat what you'd expect in a casino setting. The cafe has that casual, no-frills atmosphere with counter seating and a few small tables, so it's ideal for grabbing your coffee and muffin in under ten minuts before your gaming session. Lunch offers decent sandwiches, salads, and wraps at reasonable prices—way cheaper than sit-down restaurants if your just looking to fuel up between slots. Morning hours (7am-10am) are quieter when locals pop in, while it gets busier mid-morning with hotel guests, and afternoons are pretty steady with a mixed crowd.

Spa Resort Casino Hotel

228 rooms available

The hotel rooms at Spa Resort Casino offer a comfortable Desert Hot Springs retreat with modern furnishings and thoughtful amenities that make you feel more like a guest than a gambler. Each room featuers flat-screen TVs, minibars, and access to the resort's famous naturally heated mineral spring water that flows through the property—it's one of those unique details most Vegas-style casinos can't match. You'll notice the rooms have this earthy, relaxed vibe that reflects the spa culture rather than the typical glitzy casino aesthetic, and many guests rave about how the geothermal hot springs make the experience feel genuinely rejuvenating. The proximity to the casino floor is convenient but not intrusive; you can head downstairs for some slots or poker without that pressed-in feeling. Views range from garden-facing to pool-facing rooms, and suites offer extra space with seperate living areas that are perfect for longer stays.

💡 Booking TipBook mid-week (Tuesday-Thursday) for significantly better rates than weekends; the resort gets busy with LA and San Diego visitors on Fridays. Look for package deals that bundle spa credits with your room stay—they're often the best value and let you experiance the thermal pools without extra costs. Call directly rather than booking online to ask about loyalty upgrades or complimentary room credits if you're a regular Players Club member, as front desk staff can often sweeten deals for repeat guests.

Live Entertainment & Events at Spa Resort Casino

Live Music

The Spa Resort Casino hosts live entertainment primarily in the Spa Lounge on Thursday through Saturday evenings, featuring everything from smooth jazz trios to classic rock cover bands that appeal to the local adult crowd. Thursday nights typically feature jazz or acoustic acts starting around 8pm, creating a more sophisticated vibe where people actually listen rather than just background noise. Friday and Saturday nights bring higher-energy rock and pop tributes that get the bar area boisterous and fun—think 70s-80s classic rock or modern Top 40 covers. The entertainment schedule rotates regularly, so it's worth checking their website or calling ahead to see who's performing; most shows are included with your casino visit and don't require a cover charge. The crowd ranges from couples on date nights to groups of friends and longtime locals who've been coming for years, and the relatively intimate venue size means you actually feel connected to the performers rather than lost in a massive venue.

Special Events

Spa Resort Casino hosts seasonal events and special promotions throughout the year, including holiday tournaments, themed gaming nights, and seasonal packages that bundle room stays with dining credits or spa treatments. During summer they often run pool party events with live DJ entertainment, while holiday seasons bring Christmas and New Year's special promotions with extra giveaways and elevated entertainment lineups. Spring and fall are popular times for golf tournament packages since the local golf courses are spectacular, and the casino partners with these properties to create weekend getaway deals that include resort accomodations. You can find upcoming events through their players club newsletter, their website calendar, or by calling the casino directly—they update pretty regularly and early booking sometimes scores you discounted rates. Special events during major holidays (Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving) usually feature increased gaming promotions, live entertainment all day, and higher-stakes tournaments, so it's worth planning ahead if you want to catch something specific.

Promotions and Tournaments

The casino runs regular slot tournaments with names like "Hot Seats" where players are randomly selected during specific time windows to compete for cash prizes and free play credits. Table game promotions rotate monthly and typically feature bonus payouts on specific games—things like 2x points on blackjack Tuesdays or special bonus prizes for hitting certain poker hands. Hot Seat drawings happen multiple times daily where your name gets pulled from the Players Club database and you have a short window to get to a specific machine or table to win a guaranteed prize, sometimes ranging from $100 to several thousand dollars. To qualify for most tournaments you need to be a Players Club member (free to join), and higher tiers get exclusive access to premium tournaments with better odds and bigger prizes. Real regulars time their casino visits around specific promotion calendars—for instance, hitting the casino on Tuesdays and Thursdays when the best promos run, and they accumulate enough points throughout the month to cash in on special redemption events that offer double or triple point multipliers.

Loyalty Program

Spa Resort Casino Players Club

The Players Club rewards system works by earning points on every dollar wagered—both on slots and table games—with rates that improve as you tier up, so higher-tier members earn points faster and redeem them for better rewards. What makes this club actually worthwhile compared to generic casino programs is that the Desert Hot Springs location caters to locals rather than one-time visitors, meaning tier progression is realistic and the rewards feel attainable for regular folks. Real members consistently mention how their accumulated points translate into free play credits, discounted spa treatments, and occasional free hotel rooms if you're hitting the property regularly. Silver members start seeing meaningful perks like dining discounts and better promotional access, while Gold and Platinum tiers unlock serious benefits like priority tournament invitations and complimentary upgrades. The psychology is smart too—once you're Bronze tier, you're getting emails about how close you are to Silver status, which keeps regulars coming back to reach that next tier, and the casino's customer service staff actually recognize frequent players and offer personalized recommendations.
