AOL Travel Editor's Review

Elvis swam here! Built in 1964 and restored to its flamboyant tiki-style best in 2001, the Caliente Tropics has one of the largest pools in Palm Springs, at a whopping 65 feet long. Original tikis grin from between the more than 60 sky-high palm trees and by the rock waterfall in the lobby. The story goes that in its heyday, the resort was a favorite hangout for Elvis and the Rat Pack. The rooms range from standard to suites, with cool contemporary décor. The hotel’s former bar, where the old celebs held court, is now an independent restaurant. A few other cafes are within walking distance. Otherwise, it’s about 2 miles to downtown.
