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.

"This is a wonderful property. We had a spa villa, which was excellent with two patios and a full kitchen and an extra half bath. The rooms are slightly crusty and could probably stand to be updated and there was no blackout curtain in the bedroom so light got in, but that was fine. The staff was very helpful especially Brandon at the front desk. We enjoyed our stay very much. It was a long walk from the spa villas to the restaurant, but that’s OK. I would stay here again."

8/10 Good
"Everything was great, my only complaints are the room were in was next to one of the exits to the parking lot. Every person that came in or out, the door would slam behind. They should fix that. And the air conditioner unit in the room would periodically make a loud sound for a minute while it kicked on. It woke me up a few times. They should fix that, also. Other than that, the place was great, the staff was great, the pool was great, the restaurant was great."
