Lonely Planet review

It only takes a glimpse of an A-frame villa screened by a burly palm tree or two and framed by flowering bougainvillea to be enticed into spending a couple of nights at the Desert Palms Resort.

The palms that front each of the units here add an extra element of privacy to a place that's already saturated with the stuff due to its location between the empty Todd River and the local golf course. Each unit has a sense of spaciousness thanks to the high-ceilings, and each is fully self-contained, which means you get a veranda to lounge on, a kitchenette to cook in, and you don't have to waddle to an amenities block when nature calls. There's an appealing, palm-shaded pool with a tiny island in the middle to maroon yourself on, as well as a tennis court to play on. Best of all, this place is blanketed by the soporific sound of the desert wind rustling the fronds of the resort's namesake palms.
