French Toast
Bridgette R.

We ordered room service and had breakfast in bed. The food was decent and the service was fast. Loved the hotel rooms they are spacious and very comfortable. The shower soap and hand soup are so wonderful and soft, they leave your body feeling hydrated with some infused oils it's really good. If you haven't been to Morongo please stop in and have some fun.

If you can stay here on a less popular day (we stayed on a Sunday), the rates are pretty reasonable (Fri and Sat are significantly more expensive). The staff was nice and polite, the rooms were clean and looked quite new with nice amenities. The lazy river and pool are nice and you're able to use them before your room is available on your day of check in, as well as your day of check out. There's a tram to the auxiliary casino where there's bingo. Bingo is expensive for the whole enchilada package where you play over 100 cards per game, which sounds nice until you realize everyone is playing a similar number of cards and some people have multiple tablets, so your chances aren't great. But it took up some time and stretched that $110 for longer than the equivalent time playing slots. We didn't come here to gamble, just to hang out and relax. It was good for that. And there were reasonable food options at the food court inside where you could get a pretty decent meal for $20-25. All in all, not bad. We enjoyed the trip here.

One of my most favorite casinos in Southern California. Always a good time. The resort is really fun with the best pools and some really nice restaurants. There is also a spa. We come here a few times a year either for a daytrip or overnight weekend trip. Either way we love it. I specially love playing at the black Jack tables and roulette. Fun fun fun. But always with a preset limit for gambling.

Most everything...beds were made horribly,the free appetizers from Mozen were gross and the server/bar tender had no customer service skills.Theres no table in the room and only one chair for 4 people,no where to eat or play games.The bowling alley was decent at best the lane kept pausing and half the time pins were missing! The pool closes way too early but it's fun when open.The gym was the best part super clean.The cafe has great food and better service.

Machine casino

Casino was impressive. The carpets were dirty. It was they had a smoking section, but the whole casino smelled of cigarette so I need a better ventilation system. It was whatever music was whatever I wouldn't really go back there. I was Calientes at least had a club and it had a better atmosphere.

Saw this comedian tonight.   Always Great.

So.... I'm stuck at this casino. Why ? Cuz my car rental won't drive. The gear shifter went bad. Called Turo... waiting for the tow truck. Excitement every second ..

Besides being a casino, a resort and having a spa, Morongo offers a variety of dining venues from fast bites to elegant dining perched 27 stories up in their tower. There are a vast variety of electronic table games, slot machines and gaming tables. Morongo has separate areas for "High-Stakes" players, as well as an area with electronic table games and slots for people that are smokers. The rest of the casino floor is non-smoking. I've never smelled smoke so the air filtration of the premises are excellent. Morongo has luxury hotel offerings with an expansive range of accommodations from deluxe rooms to private casitas. On the ground level, besides the fast-food offerings, is a buffet-style restaurant that offers selections from a large choice of separate eateries offering eats from Asian to steakhouse favorites selections for a single admission price. They have excellent security, with cameras and personnel that monitor operations. The premises look clean as one sees custodians constantly picking up and straightening in the main gaming areas, as well as the restrooms being well-attended to.

They have live bands! Good entertainment and lots of fun! The slots are many and fun, they also have tables with card games. 21 poker and all of that good stuff!

We rented the Casita at the Morongo Casino and I will definitely be back! It was so beautiful with its own little dipping pool. Outside shower and the gate that let out to the main pool area we took my aunt for an early Mother's Day excursion. She loves to gamble, so this was the perfect place to take her and spoil her a little bit room service was outstanding a cut above the rest and I will definitely be back. I highly recommend splitting a little bit and getting a Casita well worth it.

Undecided? Play Bingo it's Fun. We stopped just to try out their Bingo Hall, located on the Original Morongo remember don't walk take the complimentary Bus Shuttle. We played slot machines on the "New" side. Parking is FREE here everyday. I hope my pictures help you decide to play Bingo!

I've been wanting to try this buffet here at the casino for a while now. On my way back from AZ we decided to stop. I've never been here before. All the different restaurants were nice in the buffet. I loved how they gave you small portions so you don't over serve yourself. It's definitely not cheap. I paid $316.72 for 6 adults. I paid extra for the crab legs ($20.00). You pay for that separately at the bar. They also give you a complementary ticket for a free mimosa. All the waiters and waitresses are very attentive. They pick up your plates right away. I would definitely be back. I can't wait. It doesn't hurt that I won $700!!! My first time too!!

There are glamorous casinos scattered across the globe; Macao, London, and of course, our glittery queen bee, Las Vegas. Each one swears they're the best in the business but who did it first? That crown goes to Italy. The term "casino" originate there, and Venice had organized gambling as far back as 1638. Ah, Morongo... just a casual 262 miles from Vegas, but who's counting? After doing some damage to the wallet at the outlet mall next door, we found ourselves with a little time before dinner. So naturally, we thought, "Why not drop into Morongo and see what the chips are saying?" I've been here before, but honey, she's had some work done and she's looking fabulous. Pro tip: sign up for the members club and get $10 in freeplay. Right in the center is a huge bar that had the rich, glorious smell of fresh coffee floating through the air (tempting, but I came here to gamble, not caffeinate). Head to the high limit room and you'll find a bar slinging $11 cocktails which is a sweet deal compared to the coins I coughed up in Vegas the weekend before. They've got table games, a sea of slot machines, and a designated smoking section. You will know the moment you cross that invisible boundary because your nose won't lie and your lungs will burn like a hot summer's day in, well, Cabazon. Feeling snacky? Pop into Wahlburgers for a burger and pretend Mark Wahlberg personally grilled it for you. Overall, Morongo holds its own. She's not trying to be Vegas. She knows who she and she is a solid spot to win, sip, and snack in the desert.

Good times

Morongo itself is a fun casino. I remember coming here for my 18th birthday when they just opened. It's definitely a younger crowd because it allows gambling at such a young age compared to the other casinos around. I really like the rooms and the pool is great too overall a fun time to come and visit! ... and it's right off the freeway, so it's conveniently located. The only downside is you're staying at the hotel and you bring a cooler security will check before you go upstairs. I thought that was really weird and I didn't like that aspect of the check-in other than that it's a good time.

See all

No additional fee, you get 2 wristbands for king and 4 for a 2 queen bed room.

Are the casitas set up with they're own swimming pool? And how much is it per night?

I believe it's only a jacuzzi and you have a private gate to access the main pool. Not sure if the cost per night, you'd have to call.

No! They do not! And they do not allow you to leave your pet in the car. They will call the police and Animal control.… Read more

I was just there in February, and there were plenty of free and available lazy river tubes! It was off season, though, so double check me and call to confirm.

We were at Morongo for our anniversary weekend, everything was going good I had just won at a slot…read moremachine next to this bar so my husband decided to buy drinks to celebrate. Jay started helping him out, my husband ordered 2 beers and 2 shots and I was sitting feet away from the bar. (my husband bought the same drinks at another bar and there was no issue). Jay smirked at my husband and told him he could not sell him all those drinks, my husband pointed at me and told him he would pay and I would go pick up my drinks. Jay refused and laughed at my husband, snatched the limes out of the beers and took the beers away and told him since he did not like his policy, he should go to another bar. Since my husband had bought the same drinks at another bar, he did not know he could not buy this many drinks. Jay was rude, arrogant, disrespectful and should not be working there if this is how he communicates with customers. We will obviously never buy drinks at this bar again. Be aware if you see Jay, you might get bad customer service. He really makes the casino look bad. Very disappointing. A manager got involved but didn't seem like nothing was done. He continued working at his station. The manager brought us our order and we paid. We go to the casino to have a good time and get treated well, this time around I was very surprised that this happened.

Going to Morongo Casino = getting a margarita at the food court and eating at the buffet before…read moregambling. What happened to the $0.99 margarita @ the food court? I guess it's been a while since I went to Morongo...the place is now a Haagen Dazs ice cream shop. Ordered margarita and Heineken at the Mystique Lounge instead.. Margarita ($7.00): way more expensive than before and the glass was super tiny. It was very potent though. . Heineken ($5.25): Heineken is Heineken... You can gamble at the bar. Gambling and drinking ...such a bad habit :P Good thing I am not an alcoholic :P 3 stars!! Mystique Lounge is almost yummylicious!!

***IF THIS COMPANY IS HASSLING YOU AND / OR TAKING LONGER THAN 30 DAYS WHEN YOU WHEN TRYING TO…read moreOBTAIN A REFUND PLEASE VISIT THIS WEBSITE AND SUBMIT AN OFFICIAL COMPLAINT: https://oag.ca.gov/contact/consumer-complaint-against-business-or-company Consumer Complaint Against A Business/Company | State of California - Department of Justice - Office of the Attorney General *** If you need to cancel your reservation with New Spirt Vacation Homes, be prepared to be lied to and then go through a tedious and lengthy process to NOT receive the refund you are due. Unfortunately, it ultimately ends with you having dispute charges with your credit card company even after you have followed all the rules New Spirt Vacation Homes sets outside of the Vrbo platform. Here it is - all spelled out chronologically and can be backed by 40+ messages back and forth with BOTH Niki and Monica, who appear to be the same person, at least in the way they message customers 8/28/2025 $653.35 paid in full for reservation for 3.23.26 - 3.26.26 12/11/2025 New Spirt Vacation Homes removed listing from Vrbo and directed me to view all details on their own website, not via Vrbo which made me very uneasy, so I canceled my reservation per Vrbo's timely allowances. Same day I am messaged by Nikki telling me to fill out an additional refund form outside of Vrbo and that they will take no less than 30 days to complete the refund request per their right with the CA SB 644 (California Senate Bill 644 )which legally allows them to do so. 12/19/2025 The additional email form not received via email from this company. I messaged to inquire and was basically scolded by Nikki and asked why I 'did not advise them earlier that they did not send the form?' Well, because it was not my responsibility to send it! 1/23/2026 More than 30 days past, still no refund. I messaged New Spirit Vacation homes to inquire. I was told by Nikki that "half our accounting dept. is out sick, and I will personally process the refund today." 1/24/2026 Nikki messages me now stating that "Our merchant services account does not allow us to process a refund with charges that are ran over 180 days prior to request so now we need to mail you a check." Keep in mind that the date of purchase was 8/28/2025 and the date I requested a refund was 12/11/2025. Simple math shows this is a lie, as 180 days after purchase date would have been 2/24/2026! 1/24/2026 Messaged a second time by Monica stating that she is "forwarding this request for a check refund to be issued by the CEO and mailed to you today." 1/30/2026 No check received. I message again, Niki this time lies to me stating that "I work night shift, but the check was cut and mailed out yesterday so it should arrive shortly." 2/4/2026 No check received, asked status, no response 2/5/2026 Messaged them a second time, said I will be starting a dispute with my credit card company. 2/6/2026 Next day Niki responded, "I personally tried to run your card (last lie was she mailed refund SAME DAY on 1/30/2026) and it would not allow, I will need to reach out to see what is going on." ******************* THAT WAS THE LAST MESSAGE FROM NEW SPIRT VACATION HOMES, AFTER THAT I INITIATED A DISPUTE WITH MY CREDIT CARD COMPANY THAT WAS NOT RESOLVED UNTIL THE END OF MARCH 2026 ************* So why am I siting here wasting my 30-minute lunch break typing a novel? Well, remember that neat little California Senate Bill 644 (SB 644) mentioned earlier by Nikki as the reason for not refunding anyone before 30 days; basically 'because they can'? Guess what, it protects us too as consumers from unethical companies like New Spirt Vacation homes that regularly practice cash grabbing, lies, unnecessary delays and harassment with their refund process in hopes you give up and do not fight. I am not the one who gives up easily, so I have officially filled a consumer complaint with the State of California Department of Justice Consumer Complaint Office of the Attorney General I HIGHLY recommend you do so as well if they are taking longer than 30 days to issue your refund which is in a direct violation of the CA SB 644 and punishable with up to $10,000.00 fine. Website for filing complaints as follows: https://oag.ca.gov/contact/consumer-complaint-against-business-or-company Consumer Complaint Against A Business/Company | State of California - Department of Justice - Office of the Attorney General.

We went with my girlfriend, her sisters, and a couple of friends, expecting a relaxing stay. Instead, we were kicked out the very next day over alleged noise complaints that didn't reflect what was actually happening we were being respectful and not causing any issues. What really crossed the line was that someone entered the property without even knocking first. That felt like a complete invasion of privacy and made us very uncomfortable. On top of that, the way everything was handled was extremely unprofessional. The staff/host came off as rude and dismissive, with no effort to communicate or resolve things properly. Overall, this experience ruined our trip. I would not recommend staying with them if you expect basic respect, privacy, and professionalism.
