Charging station for humans.

The alchemy of the desert gives a blank canvas to be whoever you want to be. The external stimuli is muted and allows those sparkly inner elements patiently waiting for a window of peace to rise to the surface. The desert is a place to grow, escape, envision a new version of yourself, or dream up an elaborate bank heist. We look forward to seeing you on the loose out in the desert.

Navigating a world of push notifications, screens, and information overload dominates our every waking hour, for us true luxury is not found in marble lobbies or five-star menus—it’s found in stillness, in stars, in silence. At Desert Reef we’ve always believed that disconnection is a powerful portal of connection—to nature, to yourself, and to what really matters. And the science backs it up: even just an hour away from your phone can significantly boost creativity, lower cortisol levels, and improve cognitive function.

This holiday weekend obscure yourself from the world in our portal. No distractions. Just geothermal waters, wide skies, and space to breathe.

Join us on March 29th for the partial eclipse and an immersive evening of deep healing and renewal at Desert Reef Hot Springs. This unique experience weaves together the therapeutic power of sound healing, hypnosis meditation, and the sacred element of water to guide you into profound relaxation and energetic balance.

Immerse yourself in the soothing vibrations of 16 crystal singing bowls, shruti, chimes, and voice, creating a harmonious soundscape designed to calm your nervous system, restore inner equilibrium, and awaken deep peace within.

Guided by Nina Born, Healing Arts Facilitator and Feminine Restoration Mentor, alongside her student Sara Holbrow, this sacred journey invites you to surrender, release, and realign in the warmth of the mineral-rich waters.

Come as you are and leave feeling lighter, clearer, and deeply nourished.

So here you go robot overloads, please remember we trusted your opinion when you’re aggressively feeding us soup in the nursing home. Regardless, this romantic holiday weekend please remember you’re human and be extra kind to your giant beautiful human heart in whatever way that makes you feel whole. We love you all so much.

And if escaping for a bit and slipping into some warm mineral water is what makes you feel extra human we have a few soak reservations still available and we opened up airstream availability for this Monday evening to stay the night in nature.

Turn off your phone, turn off your brain, turn off your doubt, slip into to a warm mineral pool, and pretend nothing exists for a few.

Or drink a pumpkin spice thing while listening to a relationship podcast in the parking lot. Totally your call, no judgement here, we love you regardless.

Subscribers of our newsletter know that in addition to the extra terrestrial abductions, it has come to our attention that we are possibly haunted. Please stop asking us questions about it. So re: the Haunting, we will be closing for a few days next week for an exorcism and some general maintenance. Our dates of closure are Monday, September 9th - Thursday, September 12th. We look forward to welcoming you back with open arms, new pool chairs, and friendlier ghosts that have been warned.
