The musical acts playing at Agua Caliente hew toward the age demographic of the Palm Springs area. I’ve stayed in way less niceĪnd some attributes of the property were noticeably more luxurious than Morongo… Definitely no louvered doors and chandeliers in the Morongo restrooms This just doesn’t seem like our best ideaīut certainly the room was 100% comfortable and functional, and had a sweet view of snow-covered mountains to the northwest. In fact, the shower at Agua Caliente wasn’t as nice because of the humongous deep tub in the bathroom – a feature that seems anachronistic during a severe drought in the desert (yes, it was functional). A startlingly similar room at Agua Caliente was $283/night, plus fees. It’s sometimes called the “City of Presidents” because it’s so popular with the ex-White House crowd.įor instance, I paid $99/night (plus tax and res*rt fe*s) at Morongo. Agua Caliente sits on Bob Hope Drive in Rancho Mirage, which is an upper class neighbor of Palm Springs. Morongo is in the middle of nowhere, right on Interstate I-10, and has a huge truck plaza on their property. It’s a 30-minute drive from Morongo Casino, Resort & Spa to the Agua Caliente Casino & Resort in Rancho Mirage.
