Palm Canyon Resort
Unlike many resorts that are simply glorified hotels, the Palm Canyon Resort offers a departure from the standard. Instead of simple rooms, guests are treated to villas that range in size from one bedroom to three bedrooms. The living areas are fully-furnished with complete kitchens and room to spread out. The resort has a one and a half acre outdoor pool with a waterfall and a sun deck. There's also a grotto-style whirlpool spa in a cave, a fitness center and indoor volleyball and basketball courts. There's also a spa in the main building where you can get a massage, wrap or body treatment. There's also patio dining for cool nights that come around on occasion and there's also golf within minutes of the hotel.
