Delight's Hot Springs Resort

Overview

Delight's Hot Springs Resort offers a tranquil escape in the heart of the Mojave Desert. Known for its natural mineral waters, this destination invites travelers to slow down and embrace the rejuvenating properties of its artesian springs. The resort focuses on providing a peaceful environment where the desert's quiet beauty and the therapeutic heat of the pools create a unique wellness-oriented experience for every visitor looking for relief from the road.

Location & Surroundings

Nestled in the small community of Tecopa, California, the resort sits on the southeastern edge of Death Valley National Park. The surrounding landscape is characterized by rugged mountains, expansive salt flats, and wide-open desert vistas that stretch for miles. This location is famous for its unpolluted night skies, making it a premier destination for stargazing enthusiasts and photographers who want to escape the light pollution of southern California’s metropolitan areas.

Amenities & Park Features

The park provides essential comforts for travelers, including full hookup RV sites that accommodate various rig sizes and orientations. The centerpiece of the resort is the collection of private mineral baths and outdoor soaking pools. Key amenities include:

  • Natural hot mineral baths available for guests throughout their stay.
  • Spacious sites with electrical, water, and sewer connections for long-term comfort.
  • Restrooms and clean shower facilities for convenience and hygiene.

These features foster a friendly, community-focused atmosphere while maintaining a rustic charm for those seeking a quiet desert stay.

Nearby Attractions & Things to Do

While the hot springs are the primary draw, the local area offers plenty of exploration. A short drive leads to the China Ranch Date Farm, where visitors can hike through lush riparian habitats and enjoy famous date shakes. Adventure seekers can explore the Dumont Dunes for off-road excitement or take day trips into the heart of Death Valley. The local area is also home to unique art installations and the historic Amargosa Opera House.

Who This Park Is Best For

This resort is ideal for wellness-focused travelers and retirees looking for a quiet winter retreat in the desert. It is a perfect fit for those who appreciate a rustic, no-frills environment centered on natural beauty rather than high-end luxury.

Just doesn’t hit like it used to here at the resort. While I did enjoy the cabin renovations, I couldn’t help but notice many things that just simply do not compare to the charm and splendor of what used to be known as Delight’s Hot Springs. First, and foremost and what I feel is the most important thing is the feel of the water. What used to feel calm, and relaxing, now leaves your skin so dry, and itchy, and the waters have a chlorine smell to it now as well, when they never used to. The care and attention to the private spas where they used to be drained nightly along with scrubbed and cleaned seems long forgotten. I had a certain kind of feeling when I started noticing the tons of white tiny mystery floaters in the private tubs as well as the outdoor pool and spas. There was algae in the pool and private tubs as well. I miss the old guy who used to run the check-ins, and gift shop with local soaps, robes, liquid IV’s and other goodies. Now it’s just a bunch of charcoal which just seemed stark. The lady who checked us in seemed nice enough, but the dogs at the main house where she lived were barking more than the dogs that were with guests at the “resort.” I have stayed here over a dozen times before and a big upside was the opportunity to get to unplug and enjoy peoples’ company. They have brought the big bad wolf of WiFi to the property which some may love or dislike, but to me I could definitely do without seeing people stuck to their phones around the pool and even inside the outdoor spas on YOUTUBE, instead of actually enjoying the beauty of the nature around them. Why do I have to listen to your videos while I am trying to enjoy peace and serenity? I’m just sincerely bummed out about my past visit. I hope they can return the hot springs waters to what they used to be and get rid of all the harmful chemicals I was trying to avoid in regular pools by taking the 2 hour drive to Tecopa. The time, attention and interest the old workers used to give into the property has been lost and forgotten. I hope they can find it back again along with the water quality.

We found paradise. Great pools, fresh cabins and a super friendly owner that has fixed the place up. We’ll come back

Although we arrived quite late, 9:45pm, the checking in attendant treated me like I had the plague. We stayed in #107 which is a nicely renovated 1960's mobile home, but they failed to turn on the AC before we got there so it was 88° when we got there and it took over an hour for it to cool off to sleep. In the morning my wife went to take a shower she turned on the hot water only to find out it smelled like rotten eggs, hence not a fun shower. And for $400 for the night it was not worth the money

My party wanted to get away from the noise of Vegas so we rented a car to drive out to the hot springs. We stayed in Villa 107 and had everything we needed to enjoy the springs, the pool, and the hot tubs under the full moon. After checking out with the lovely office, we drove out to the Shoshone museum and had iced coffeee and cheese burgers at the Crowbar cafe. We plan on visiting again as soon as possible. Great use of time and money

Anyone can access private room for 30 min. You can re-enter for another 30 min. Private room has its own cold shower. IMO I’d be cooked in the private room I was in there for 10 mins haha. It’s too hot for me. Very nice, clean and beautiful private room. Outdoor pool was warm. Plenty of space and small pools connected to the main pool. Restroom was ok with toilet and shower. I remember 1 shower and multiple toilet. Some toilet were broken. We just needed a quick wash before camping, so it was acceptable.
