HOTEL FAQ
Only food and beverages purchased from the hotel/restaurant/bar are allowed in the pool area. No exceptions.
A hotel buyout requires a percentage of occupancy per night. If we do not meet this minimum, the remainder of the rooms will be open to the public including the pool areas, restaurants, bars.
Hilton Palm Springs
A 3-night minimum stay is required and must include Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
Once you complete your Tidal Wave ticket purchase you will receive an email with the booking link. Please choose # of guests, your room type, fill in name on reservation, Credit Card information and submit.
Each person occupying your room MUST purchase a Tidal Wave pass. Failure to comply will forfeit your Tidal Wave ticket with no refund and forfeit your room reservation.
If your desired room type is no longer available, it will not be offered.
As rooms reservations are taken quickly during launch, there is NO guarantee that all guests who purchase passes will receive reservations at the host/ overflow hotels. A waitlist will be taken once all rooms have sold out at both hotels and will be utilized on a first come-first served basis.

We asked a hotel manager this very same question, below is the Answer.
Hi Danny,
You are correct that the rates the weekend prior to Tidal Wave are lower, there are several factors that play into this:
Demand – The Tidal Wave event falls over a weekend with high demand in the area which increases the rates, this is why throughout the year you will see different pricing from day to day and week to week
Flow Through – Pre and Post days of Tidal Wave are difficult days for the hotel to sell rooms since the hotel is not able to offer stays that overlap with the Tidal Wave event
Area Hotels – In looking at the other hotels in the area with similar events we are offering competitive rates. In addition we do not enforce policies such as mandatory valet.
Packages – We do not offer packages during special events such as Tidal Wave, our parking team requires extra staffing and longer hours which prevents us from discounting parking.
Staffing/Additional Cost – An event such as Tidal Wave does require additional staffing for all departments, more than any other event throughout the year. Things that we offer such as the poolside bar and grill concessions are at no additional cost to Tidal Wave and the hotel breaks even on these.
