“Second time visit FAR exceeds our expectations”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

We were at Living Waters last year and wrote a review of that trip which was glowing. We had very high expectations as a result - and Jeff & Judy FAR exceeded them. It was another magical time spent soaking in the hot pool, taking with fellow guests, enjoying the desert on hikes, and enjoying being on vacation together. So wonderful!

If you want to unwind and relax, you can't find a better place to do it!

“A Total Gem”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

My wife and I have been to this oasis twice and look forward to the third time. All components of Living Waters Spa live up to the reviews by others. It is exactly what Jeff and Judy say it is in their website. We feel special and and have a very relaxing restful time for a three or four day stay. Our favorite thing is the ability to walk out of the room and get into the two pools anytime of day or night. The resaon we chose Living Waters Spa is because of the consistant sunshine and warm winter temperatures in that area.

“Great couple of days at Living Waters Spa.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

My two-day visit to the Living Waters Spa was a real joy. Day one was spent winding down from the long drive from the Pacific Northwest. The hot mineral pools and quite-relaxing surroundings calmed my spirit and restored my energy. The resort has a beautifully restored retro feel with beautiful rooms and great beds. There are many good looking restaurants in Desert Hot Springs and for fancier dining, Palms Springs is just a short drive from the spa. I started day two with a hike around the 1000 Palms Oasis. Then it was back to the spa for a soak in one of the hot mineral water pools followed by the best massage I have ever had. My only regret was that I could only stay for two days. Next Year I will plan a longer stay.

“Rejuvinated Again!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

Our favorite getaway where we feel like family but are pampered like royalty. The water is superb, the breakfast selections are healthy, and the afternoon munchies are always a treat. Jeff and Judy are not only great hosts, but truly good people and give the best massages we have ever had. We always stay in the on-site rooms which are simply furnished and quite comfortable. We like to be close to the hot tub, pool and sunny lounge chairs. But if you have a pet, there is also a pet-friendly condo across the street you can book. Love the peaceful atmosphere here along with great conversations with other guests and the staff. Just wish we could spend more time in this shangri-la.

Thank you Jeff and Judy and Jenna for your wonderful hospitality. It was truly a great week. The 3:00 social time was the highlight of the trip, as it was great meeting new friends and talking. The condo was roomy and comfy. I look forward to coming back soon.
