About

An oasis in the outback, the Desert Palms is a 3.5 star outback property offering individual studio villa accommodation, set around a crystal clear free-form pool with island and waterfall surrounded by tropical gardens.
All villas are air-conditioned and include bougainvillea-covered verandahs, private en-suites and kitchenette facilities. The hotel offers outstanding value for the visitor wanting comfort at an affordable price.

We're located in the main accommodation centre of Alice Springs on the banks of the Todd River, close to town, Lasseters Casino - Alice Springs entertainment hot spot, the Convention Centre, and the Alice Springs Golf Club is our backyard.

Some of the best restaurants in Alice Springs are within meters of the Desert Palms. These include the Golf Course Club House, Hanumans (Indian/Thai) and Balloons Bistro at the Double Tree by Hilton and the four restaurants at Lasseter's Casino, including the Juicy Rump.

We offer a small kiosk/shop on-site where food items and liquor can be purchased, a guest laundry, BBQ area, secure gated off street parking directly outside each villa, and free Wifi in villa and throughout the property. We also have an Espresso Coffee Machine available during reception hours.

Desert Palms offers a calm, peaceful environment, which creates a sense of relief for the weary traveller. After a hectic day of travelling by road or air take pleasure in watching the world go by on the privacy of your own private balcony surrounded by palms trees while watching the spectacular sunsets over the MacDonald Ranges.

The beds and the rooms are good. The staff was not very friendly. The location was a long walk to the centre of town. A taxi is necessary to go back to the hotel in the evening.

Good location across from the river (nice walks) and an easy drive into town also easy stroll to the botanical gardens. Very grateful to have access to a laundry- met some other guests - very social spot! The rooms are fairly basic but comfortable. I thought the bathroom could do with a really good thorough scrub (looks like it had a quick wipe). Bathroom fan noise drove me crazy- light & fan on same switch. Reception staff very helpful. Glad to be able to buy a few supplies at reception.
