Indian Wells and its attractions for beach lovers

While Indian Wells is renowned for its luxurious resorts and stunning desert landscapes, it lacks direct access to traditional beaches.

"I wasn’t too impressed that I had to really argue with the staff to get the free breakfast when it said we had the free breakfast written on the Expedia confirmation. He said oh you booked it with Expedia. We don’t allow that or approve it. I insisted I said the confirmation says it really clear and finally with an attitude they allow us to have the breakfast included. Other than that, the place was very nice with a nice swimming pool. The carpet in the hallways was getting very old."

"The room was clean, the staff were friendly , polite, helpful, and knowledgeable. The hotel was beautiful. Breakfast at the Cava restaurant was great. I recommend the malted waffle the açaí bowl and even the steel cut oats. We used the shuttle service to the golf course next door which was helpful."
