According to the press release of Two Bunch Palms in PR Newswire, the resort spa has undergone a series of renovations and developments in the last two years. These renovations include the redecoration of existing rooms, the addition of new rooms and suites, a new farm-to-table restaurant, and improvements to the infrastructure and the public areas.

Independent film producer and former chair of the Two Bunch Palms Resort Spa, Donald Kushner, together with other previous owners, will retain the undeveloped land surrounding the Two Bunch Palms.
Two Bunch Palms Spa Resort has been in operation since the 1940s and has been known as a discreet hideaway for Hollywood celebrities, notorious historic gangsters, and those seeking healing from its unique mineral lithium rich hot springs.
