La Dolce Vita is a wonderful retreat that offers both a social atmosphere and peaceful relaxation. The friendly staff is attentive, providing exceptional service to ensure guests feel welcome and taken care of. The facilities, including the two lovely pools, cater to different preferences, making it easy to switch between social and tranquil settings. However, some amenities could benefit from updates, though the overall experience is well worth the visit.

La Dolce Vita Resort and Spa is a true gem in Palm Springs. I loved the welcoming community atmosphere that made it easy to connect with fellow guests while still enjoying a peaceful retreat. The staff was incredibly attentive, always checking in to ensure my needs were met. The grounds are beautifully updated, although some areas are still in the process of renovations. Overall, my experience was fantastic, but dining options could be a bit better for my taste.

La Dolce Vita has some notable improvements with refreshed landscaping and spacious rooms, but the overall experience is marred by subpar dining options and some outdated furnishings. While the location offers a peaceful ambiance, the breakfast experience is rather disappointing and could use significant enhancement. The value is not ideal for the price paid, especially considering the lack of variety in meal options.
Rooms

The rooms are large and spacious, but the furnishings feel a bit dated and basic. I was in a newly refurbished room, and I can't imagine what the unrefurbished ones must look like.

I recently spent a wonderful four weeks at La Dolce Vita, and it was an incredible experience. The staff went above and beyond to make my stay enjoyable, and the renovations to the rooms really paid off. The pool area was lovely for relaxing, and while some amenities were restricted due to circumstances, it didn’t take away from the overall experience. I can’t wait to return.

My stay at La Dolce Vita was extraordinarily relaxing and exceeded my expectations. The staff treated me like royalty, and the updated rooms were both clean and comfy, especially with the lovely poolside access. The only downside was that I wished there were more dining options available on-site. Overall, it is a fantastic place to unwind and is conveniently located, with quick access to downtown Palm Springs.
