The Saguaro Palm Springs Courtyard Façade

How much do you love having your eyeballs overwhelmed with color? If you're like me you seek out color explosions, and this place does not disappoint. Plus, there's a pool open to the public and a bar so you can cool yourself down in that hot hot desert heat after you photograph this stunning building.

I took this photograph from within the courtyard of The Saguaro Palm Springs. Take a look at the GPS in Google Satellite view to better understand where in the courtyard I stood.
You can park in the parking lot for free, even if you are not a hotel guest. When you enter the lobby there is no need to check in with the receptionist. Walk towards the lobby desk, then make a left. Walk down the corridor towards the neon cactus wall art. You'll exit the main building through those glass doors and will enter the colorful courtyard & pool area. No need for a key or room number to take photos or enjoy the pool.
