Getting Here and Getting Around

The Oasis at Death Valley is located in Death Valley National Park. 

Like many national park properties, The Oasis is in a remote, isolated destination. However, unlike many national park settings, the Oasis is situated 120 miles west of Las Vegas, NV and 275 miles east of Los Angeles. The nearest municipality for activities such as shopping for daily items, vehicle servicing and doctors' and government offices, is Pahrump, NV, 60 miles or one hour driving time east of property.

New employees, who do not arrive by own conveyance, can schedule an employee shuttle pick up in the Las Vegas metro area. The employee shuttle picks up from the Harry Reid Airport, Best Western at the Airport and Silverton Hotel on Tuesday mornings.

Bringing one's own vehicle offers flexibility for recreation during time off and exploring the area. NOTE: Personal vehicles should be prepared to operate in extreme temperature conditions. The Oasis operates an on-property gas station for gasoline. 

For Fun

Death Valley is the largest U.S. National Park outside Alaska at 3.4 million acres and is renowned for being one of the driest and hottest places on earth, where you will find natural wonders unknown in any other part of the world.

It is hot, hot, hot here but we have lots of fun in the sun. You will be able to visit some of the most unique places on earth (check our photos out), play golf, go horseback riding, and just enjoy working in a remote well-known vacation spot!

Both hotels are open year-round and feature swimming pools fed by naturally warm local springs.

    At The Oasis at Death Valley, irrigation is part of a unique water recycling system built around our property’s natural spring water pools. Spring water flows through the pools on our property for our guests to enjoy before flowing into a series of collection ponds, which have been recognized by Audubon International as wildlife habitat. From there, it is pumped throughout the property for landscape and golf course irrigation. This system allows the same water resource to serve multiple purposes, making irrigation operations an important part of the Oasis’s broader sustainability and water recycling efforts and a rare, world-class example of large-scale water recycling system within the hospitality industry.
