“third times a charm”

This was our third trip to LWS, and will not be our last. The weather is terrific, Jeff & Judy are as wonderful as ever, the 3:00 pm "feeding of the animals" still goes on with guesses on the contents of the dip (congrats to N for getting all the ingredients and the free massage).

This is a clean, well kept facility, the other guests are warm, friendly and respectful. We always go away with new friends, and a desire to not leave. We will be back!

This time we took time to hike in San Jacinto State Park & Indian Canyons, and recommend both, although you do have to put clothes on ;-) The Palm Springs Tram is quite spectacular, and the trails at 8,500 feet, although still somewhat snow covered look very inviting. not into hiking? Go up anyway and enjoy the view!

Jeff and Judy are such wonderful and personable hosts. They both have wonderful energy. It felt as though we were guests at their home for the weekend. The place was immaculate and the water incredible!

“Always going back there........”

Living Waters Spa

In my Jan 4, 2006 review of LWS, I said my wife and I would definitely have to go back one day.

Well, since that time, we've been back there for 3 more stays, each one a bit longer than the previous, and we will be going again this June!

Each visit is just as special, just as relaxing, and just as restorative to our mental and spiritual well-being!

Jeff and Judy remain the best hosts we've ever encountered, and they are at least as important a part of our experience there as the wonderful waters, the massages, the workshops, and the option to be clothing-free.

This was our first stay at LWS and our fourth time at a clothing optional resort. It was very relaxing as well as rejuvenating and centering for the soul. We thank all our hosts for making us feel welcome and comfortable!

“Great Spa in the Desert”

Living Waters Spa

5 of 5 stars

3/3 found this review helpful

This spa was a great experience for our first clothing optional stay. The hosts made us feel welcomed and comfortable. The amenities were superb which included a delightful four handed massage , a yoga class with an experienced instructor and the most wonderful facial by the newest member of the staff.

Another delicious feature is the breakfast food offered in the lounge and the afternoon hor d'oeuvre graciously served by the spa's host, pool-side.

The water in both pools made your skin feel like silk!

Truly an oasis worth returning to in the very near future! We highly recommend this diamond in the desert!
