JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa, Palm Desert

JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa

Enjoy endless family fun in the sun at this gorgeous Desert Springs Resort. There's lots to do whether it's playing a round of golf, practising your tennis techniques, swimming and sunbathing, renting a bicycle, or soothing your tired muscles in a steamroom or sauna...the JW Marriott Resort & Spa is a complete holiday in itself. You don't even have to leave the luxurious hotel grounds to eat. There are four restaurants on site: the Mikado for sizzling steaks and fresh sushi, the Lake View for classic roast beef buffets and brunches, the Oasis Bar and Brille with its casual poolside snacks, and the lively Costas Nightclub. All of these restaurants are accessible by boat which is an added attraction to your dining experience. There's even a Starbucks near the lobby with an outdoor terrace and fire pit. In my opinion, it is definitely the most self contained resort in the Desert: a dazzling oasis amid the shopping malls and golf courses. The bonus is that there are several different options for accommodation to choose from depending on how you want to spend your time. The hotel is fabulous and convenient for romantic couples and serious golfers, while the Villas 1 and 2 offer spacious family style accommodation with kitchen and balcony and frequent shuttle bus service back and forth to the main hotel.

Sherman's Deli, Palm Desert

Sherman's Deli

 

Sherman's Deli is a culinary treasure that serves authentic Jewish deli food in the middle of the Desert. Nothing fancy or pretentious, Sherman's is where the locals patiently line up for clean kosher comfort food at any time of the day. Built in the early 1960s during the halycon days of the California Desert, the Deli has two locations - one in Palm Springs and one in Palm Desert - which are run by a brother and sister team who have continued in the respected tradition of their late father. The walls of the restaurants are hung with photographs of famous celebrities who have savoured the "double helping" sized servings over the years. Traditional favorites include the Homemade Potato Pancakes, the Grilled Reuben, the Corned Beef and Cabbage, and the Strawberry Shortcake. By avoiding the dinner rush - early diners are rewarded with fewer line-ups and lower prices on dinner orders. It's easy to see why Sherman's was voted "Best Sandwich in the Valley" in 2012 by Desert Magazine!!
