Arty, rustic, historic, funky, cool, quirky, 29 Palms Inn is all of these, and probably a little eccentric too. Built around a natural oasis 'the Oasis of Mara' in 1928, 29 Palms Inn consists of a characterful collection of adobe bungalows and modest cottages set amidst the palms, cacti and other flora of this part of California. There's a pool, a bar and a renowned restaurant that attracts diners from far afield.
If you go:
Book in, chill out, and don't expect room service! If you're not able to stay overnight, be sure to plan a meal in the cafe by the pool. Don't let it's casual appearance fool you -- the chef is highly regarded and this has been the hangout of vacationing Hollywood A-listers for years.
