description
Two Bunch Palms is a contemporary wellness escape where we implore you to define what wellness means for yourself. Set within a lush and intimate oasis, bathe in therapeutic, mood enhancing mineral waters from our 600 year old natural spring followed by treatments from our renowned healers to experience an effortlessly holistic wellness journey. Unlike a traditional spa experience in almost every way, we're here to casually indulge your desire to retreat yourself.
Whether you're seeking a cozy retreat or a spacious oasis, Two Bunch Palms has a room type to suit every need. We understand that everyone deserves a break, which is why we strictly cater to guests 18 and over. While we appreciate the little ones, we invite you to indulge in an adults-only retreat where you can unwind, recharge, and immerse yourself in the ultimate wellness experience.
Menus are focused on vegetable forward, So-Cal inspired foods that change seasonally - providing vegan and vegetarian dishes as well as hearty and comforting non-vegetarian plates. Fresh juices, and alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages are also available.
Two Bunch Palms is a 65 room boutique hotel located in Desert Hot Springs, California. Just a 15 minute drive from Palm Springs International Airport, Two Bunch Palms is thoughtfully situated within a lush oasis sheltered by ancient palm trees amidst 72 acres of desert landscape.
Two Bunch provides weekly, regularly scheduled, complimentary classes for retreat guests including yoga, pilates, art classes, tarot insights & sound baths.
Two Bunch offers a variety of weekly programming, workshops and private enrichment sessions. Access to programming is included with your stay. Private sessions or workshops marked with an asterisk require an additional fee. Yoga Classes are currently hosted by Buddhi Yoga based in La Jolla.

Through her workshops, she upholds an ethos of authenticity, connection, and pure fun, using ritual and crafts to honor our connection to each other.
