Palms Springs swingers’ resort – which comes with ‘play maze’
A beloved swingers resort is making a premature evacuation.
The Palm Springs resort, with a so-called a “play maze” for its partner-sharing adult guests, was unexpectedly put on the market this summer.
The “clothing optional” Exotic Dreams Resort Hotel was listed in July for a pants-dropping $10.5 million, a price that also includes a list of its loyal clientele.
“It’s not only clothing-optional, but it’s a swinger-lifestyle resort,” listing agent Adam Gilbert, of The Firm Commercial, told Realtor.com.
“It’s a very well-known property in terms of the history. If you know, you know.”
The 40-room hotel has a storied reputation in the California city as a free-for-all respite for the open-minded.
Before it was dubbed the Exotic Dreams Resort Hotel, the space was known as the All Worlds Resort and was a famous hot spot for clothing-adverse gay men, Realtor.com reported.
That clothing-optional mindset carried on as the hotel transitioned into a swingers destination.
The property boasts 40 rooms, three pools and a sprawling “play maze” — complete with beds, massage tables and glory holes.
Owner Kenny Chen recently sunk more than $500,000 into the property to modernize the underground plumbing and to renovate a number of the bedrooms, according to Gilbert.
The hotel was closed for 2024 and part of 2025 to accommodate the construction — and reopened this summer to an eager crowd of swingers.
It’s unclear why Chen is trying to sell the hotel so soon after investing in the property. He told SFGate this week that the resort has been quite lucrative.
“You can make lots of money,” Chen said.
“After the remodel, we opened July 1, and every single month, I have the revenue of approximately $140,000, and the costs are pretty low. It’s a good business.”
The potential sale comes just months after Desert Sun Resort, another “clothing optional” Palm Springs business, was sold and transformed into a “more traditional hotel by its buyer,” Realtor.com reported.
