An Insider's Take
'Desert oasis meets championship golf in the heart of California's playground for the elite.' What's Special? This resort sits in the exclusive Coachella Valley, home to the famous BNP Paribas Open tennis tournament. The property features two championship golf courses designed by Clive Clark and Ted Robinson, plus you're just minutes from El Paseo shopping district - often called the "Rodeo Drive of the Desert." The resort's spa utilizes ancient desert healing traditions with modern wellness techniques.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Book tee times early during peak season (January-April) when celebrities and pros flock here during tennis season. The resort offers exclusive access to both golf courses, which aren't available to the general public.
Don't Miss The resort's prime location puts you 15 minutes from Palm Springs' mid-century modern architecture and vintage shopping, while the nearby Santa Rosa Mountains offer hiking trails with stunning desert vistas. Time your visit during the Indian Wells Arts Festival held right on the resort grounds each spring.
