The Mod Resort is a beautiful property and has a wonderful decor! The salt water pool was fabulous! Our friends had their wedding there at the begining of June and it was beautiful! I do have to mention that the service at times was an issue. The treatment of some of the guests by staff was gruff and short as... more

Flash to the past. Jane and George Jetson would feel right at home. Hidden away behind a high-white wall, the Mod Resort is all that and more. White, glass, , mirrors, and chrome as far as the eye can see. Sleek, clean, elegant -- you'd never recognize the property from its early life in the 1950s of pink, rattan, and... more

My girlfriend and I stayed at the MOD in early June and had a fantastic time. The owner (Laura) greeted us with cold beers and was extremely helpful the entire stay. Check-in/check-out were as easy and effortless as the days sitting by the beautiful pool soaking up the hot desert sun. I would definitely recommend staying here if you're looking... more

I just stayed unexpectedly at The Mod Resort last weekend for my birthday with my boyfriend, after we walked out of The Mojave across the street (due to uncontrolled screaming children at the pool all day long the first day!!) We were familiar with The Mod, but had never stayed there. Although it was late in "the season" for the... more

Stumbled upon this hotel while searching online for boutique hotels in Palm Desert for Memorial Day Weekend. I was very excited after seeing the website and reading some of the articles the MOD has been featured in. Design is extremely important to me and this midcentury gem truly has great design. Not only is the MOD aesthetically pleasing, with its... more

My Fiancee and I stayed at the Mod two weeks ago. We're getting married and wanted to find a place out in the Palm Desert area. We walked into the hotel and knew it was the perfect place. The owner is great! The grounds are beautiful, the rooms were the nicest we saw in the area and the beds are... more

We are not usually fans of trendy boutique hotels which tend to emphasize style over substance, but after reading all of the positive Mod reviews, we decided to give it a try. Specifically, we were looking for a place where we could book two rooms (so our 15 year old could have her own) that wouldn't break the bank, a... more

Wonderful environment-rooms are very clean,crisp and comfortable. Beds are wonderful. Wood floors are very nice-hard to find in that area-most everyone has carpeting. Great location for shopping and meals. Laura the owner is very personable and helpful. Outdoor space is very relaxing --- has loungers, ,huge but stylish heating lamps and a covered area to read or have a drink... more

The Mod Resort is a relaxing, conveniently located, immaculately clean and pleasant resort. Laura is a great host and we couldn't have asked for more. The bed was super comfortable and we had a small kitchenette. For us, it was perfect. more

Just came back from a three week holiday in Southern California. Stayed at several hotels and this was one of the best. Loved the grounds and peacefulness. We took the small room and it was very small. Laura did warn us. If we were staying longer we would have taken one of the larger rooms.......but ........we were there for the... more
