My partner and I booked this all male, clothing optional resort during the low season of August. It was a pleasant, quiet and relaxing holiday for us. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the very friendly staff and the three very friendly staff dogs! They gave us a tour of the premises and showed us the our room. The room... more

What can you say?? The owners are three BEAUTIFUL men without any attitude who are as sweet as can be. The guys that go there are awesome, the rooms are beautiful, the parties are stocked with hot and friendly guys........They should have named it Heaven instead because it's the closest thing to it! more

My partner and I just returned from our stay at Helios and can't wait to get back there. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcome and part of the Helios family. The staff and guest were unlike anyplace we have stayed before. We felt like we were staying at a friends guest house and we were... more

What a great place. Helios is the perfect escape for the gay male traveler. Singles or couples, this place is great for everyone. I was checked in by one of the very sexy owners and given a quick, but thorough tour of the grounds and facilites (you have GOT to see the amazing Play Room for yourself!) and then shown... more

My recent stay at Helios, formerly named La Posada East, was not my first experience at this property. I have stayed at many resorts in Palm Springs for both business and pleasure but none draw me back quite like Helios. It is convenient, quiet, safe and fun. The owners are accommodating and friendly. The grounds are well manicured with quaint,... more

I stayed for 10 days and wished it was a longer trip the moment I arrived. The staff & owners are friendly & really helpful, directing me to the best places to dine, shop, explore and knew what was going on around town if you were interested & how to best get around too. I was made to feel right... more

I was very pleasantly surprised when I got to Helios to see a very nice, well manacured area with a great pool. I was even more impressed to find out what a great and attentive staff there was. The other guests were even great, interesting and fun as well! The rooms were clean and fun, the breakfast was good, the... more

Helios is quiet and relaxed. The grounds are well-kept. The staff are attentive and charming, lending an air of old-fashioned hospitality that is very rare in many area resorts. more
