“This classy resort, which serves a gay clientele, is the only one in the desert with an in-house spa. Large rooms, each individually decorated, surround a sparkling pool; they have carefully coordinated dark colors, and ample bathrooms. The vibe here is social, presided over by the resort's gracious hosts.”
