What it's like to work here

Terra Palm Springs

Terra Palm Springs is an intimate, 13-room boutique hotel where thoughtful hospitality and holistic wellness come together. Set against the San Jacinto mountains, the property offers a welcoming desert retreat designed to help guests slow down, rest, and reconnect. The experience extends beyond the guest room. Guests can unwind in the Himalayan salt sauna, explore the cold plunge and immersive rain room, or enjoy quiet moments by the pool. Rooms and suites offer distinct experiences, with select accommodations featuring private patios, soaking tubs, firepits, or a private cold plunge. Natural textures, considered design, and personal touches create a sense of warmth throughout the property. Our team brings these spaces and experiences to life. From preparing a room with care to welcoming a guest, serving a drink, or explaining a wellness amenity, each role helps shape the stay. We’re looking for people who take pride in the details, enjoy connecting with others, and bring a thoughtful approach to hospitality.
