Canyon Club Hotel Palm Springs Is Closing – Here’s Your New All‑Men’s Home at Casa Oliver
For years, Canyon Club Hotel Palm Springs has been one of the city’s most famous all‑men, clothing‑optional resorts – a classic spot for gay travelers who loved the huge pool, the maze out back, and the easy walk to uptown bars and restaurants.
Now, a big change is here: Canyon Club Hotel Palm Springs has announced it is permanently closing as of December 8, 2025, with all future reservations canceled and refunded.
Plans call for the property to eventually return as a hotel open to everybody – no longer an all‑men’s, clothing‑optional resort. For gay men who loved the Canyon Club vibe, that leaves a big question:
“Where do Canyon Club guests go now?”
The answer: Casa Oliver Hotel & Resort – an all‑men, clothing‑optional resort in Palm Springs’ Warm Sands neighborhood that keeps the spirit of play, connection, and freedom alive, while upgrading the experience in a big way.

What’s Happening to Canyon Club Hotel Palm Springs?
For decades, Canyon Club Hotel has been known as:
- A 32‑room, gay men’s clothing‑optional resort with a giant central pool and hot tub
- Walking distance to downtown Palm Springs nightlife, restaurants, and shops
- A playful property featuring a maze and park area at the back where guys could socialize in a more shaded, private space
In late 2025, Canyon Club officially announced that it is permanently closing as an all‑men’s resort on December 8, 2025.
The current plan is for the property to be transformed and reopened under new direction as a hotel for all guests, not a men‑only, clothing‑optional gay resort. That means:
- No more Canyon Club day passes as you know them
- No more gay men’s clothing‑optional positioning
- No more maze and back‑park experience dedicated to a men‑only crowd
If you’re searching “Canyon Club Hotel Palm Springs” right now because you want that familiar, men‑only vibe, you’ll want to look elsewhere.

From “The Maze” to Oliver’s Den – An Icon, Reimagined

Casa Oliver has taken the iconic All Worlds Indoor Maze and elevated it to a whole new level with Oliver’s Den:
- A heated indoor maze with play spaces, lounge areas, TVs, and more
- An outdoor maze for guests who like a little adventure in the desert air
- A refreshed, immersive design focused on fun, connection, and discretion
If you’re Googling “Canyon Club maze” or “gay maze Palm Springs” and wondering where to find that kind of experience now, Oliver’s Den at Casa Oliver is the new must‑see playground.
Day Passes, Weekend Passes, and Events – Starting Around $15
One of the reasons Canyon Club Hotel Palm Springs was so popular was its affordable day passes – perfect for locals and visitors who just wanted pool and spa access without a room.
Casa Oliver has doubled down on that idea with flexible passes to Oliver’s Den and the resort:
- Day Passes & Weekday Passes – access to the pool, hot tub, outdoor showers, lounges, fire pit, Oliver’s Den and the outdoor maze
- Night Passes & Weekend Passes – for guys who prefer the after-dark vibe or full weekends of fun
