JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort and Spa

You almost can't go wrong with summer pricing in the desert - as long as you stay alive in 112° weather. Greens still a touch slow from aerating.

Course was in good shape for recent aerification. Staff should allow coolers which contain Gator Aid or water due to very hot weather. Finally the cart attendant gave us ice.

It was great just hot right now but love the course and hotel.

Nice course, but was pretty slow for an early am tee time.

I played in June and the rate was very good for the type of course experience that it offers. I’m sure that the rate jumps dramatically during the months of good weather. I would love to play this course when it’s not so hot, just not sure if I can afford it 😀.

Coachella Valley is filled with really good courses that are in great shape. The Palm course is added to our list of places to revisit!

Every part of our experience was top notch, and the course conditions were excellent despite the 115° temperature. The greens were especially notable for their smooth roll and relatively good speed despite the hot season.

The only reason that I only gave 4 stars for the value is that we’ve played several courses in similar condition that cost almost half to play, but this Marriott layout is a definite thumbs-up!

I know it’s summer. But the staff could care less if you are there. We were not hotel guests and were treated like we didn’t belong.

So sad. As this used to be the course to play out in the area. Gone down hill.

I enjoy this course as it is a good test of skill and has beautiful views

The course was in great shape- I've played it before but not this time of year. It was not at all busy and the pace was quick.

Have played many Marriott based courses. Has some dry patches. Greens true. T boxes / traps need some work. Overall great day and would highly recommend.

This course is part of the famous JW Marriott and you would expect a better condition course for the money. The greens were terribly inconsistent and bumpy. We only saw the beverage cart one time in our 4 hours and the snack shack was closed at the turn.

This course was challenging, with a lot of hills, slopes, bunkers and water as obstacles. Wide open tee boxes, with a greatly maintained fairways and rough. The greens were true, and well maintained.

A resort in every sense of the word. Quite enjoyable.
