BEHIND THE WOODEN DOOR

The small unassuming wooden door at the entrance to the Vista Grande belies the sprawling private land of lush gardens, hummingbirds, waterfalls and interesting men from all over the world.

Established in 1984, Vista Grande was the first gay clothing optional resort in Palm Springs and the Heart of Warm Sands. We had just seven guest rooms back then, and business was transacted in the nude on a pay phone by the pool. Thirty-nine years later, and now with over thirty guest rooms and apartments, our mission remains steady: Always have loads of fun providing discerning gay travelers with a secret Garden Sanctuary of Earthly Delights where we celebrate Life, Love and Personal Freedom every day.
