La Casa Del Zorro Desert Resort & Spa

We stayed here for two nights in Room 272 (all one bedroom casitas were booked) and the room was very nice, spacious and beautifully furnished with lovely antique furniture, a small corner loveseat that seats three, a leather ottoman, nice artwork, an elegant & roomy bathroom with luxury towels and pool towels, as well. Although the TV was not working or the heater (temperatures dropped on our second night due to wind storm) we called the front desk and they sent Chayce, who was very helpful, courteous and friendly and swapped out the TV and made some adjustments to the electrical panel to assure we were getting heat (something not often called for in Borrego!). I will say I was a bit taken aback at the poor condition of the pool area, though, next to yoga studio (reason for 4 stars vs. 5). In the past this area was kept in tip top shape. The cushions were dirty and the straps were torn, the curtains on the cabana were torn and ripped, the tile in the smaller pool was badly corroded. Maybe it’s the end of the season and the resort does not want to spend the money to fix it at this time or maybe the pool is being managed under separate contract? By the way, the smaller pool was quite warm (heated) while the larger lap pool was not. The front desk said neither pool was heated. Both were still comfortable to enter in late spring. We had breakfast at the Fox Bistro and everything was perfect (good food and service). We liked the addition of the little internet cafe (Casa Cafe & Market), too. I thought it was a nice bonus to offer free yoga classes (although we didn’t take) and I liked the self check out feature, as well. There’s no doubt this is the nicest & classiest place to stay in Borrego. The resort is so beautiful with an abundant of amenities. We have been coming here for a decade - often for special family occasions- and look forward to our next stay!

I have no idea why some gave lower ratings of this place. It exceeded all of my expectations. The grounds were beautiful. Private and public spaces were incredibly clean. And the staff friendliness and hospitality were of the charts - from the front desk to the restaurant to the houseman. Everyone was so helpful and accommodating. We stayed in the Yucca casita. It was huge with a large courtyard and an attached fenced in gated pool. Absolutely perfect. A full kitchen would’ve been nice, but we appreciated the small fridge and the giant cooler of ice the desk gave us. The entire place is serene and quiet. The activities and amenities are great. I had never been to Borrego Springs before, but it now will be my desert get away destination because of this resort. Next time I plan to book just a poolside room, to rate the difference. Because when we were walking around, all the pools were deserted. I definitely recommend. I wish I had booked for longer.

A Must Stay in Borrego Springs Casa del Zorro was an awesome hotel. The room was huge and had a gigantic bathtub. The grounds are maintained beautifully. We especially enjoyed the Fox Bar and its bartender Jerry. The drinks with fresh ingredients were made with care. A very welcoming hotel in a great location.
