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.

Palm Mountain Resort and Spa

Palm Mountain Resort and Spa

8/10 Good
"The room was fine. The cleaning was great. The only thing I would change in the rooms would be the steam iron. We need to have regular irons with ironing boards in the rooms. Those steam irons take too long to heat up and there’s nothing flat that we can lay our clothes down to steam it correctly without water dripping on it. But other than that, everything was fine"

"This was a last minute trip plan and we loved it! The room was super clean. The front office agent was nice and efficiently in my check in process. Pool was great place as the water was warm and had enough lounge chairs for relaxing. Outdoor view was great as you can see the desert side mountains and a golf course behind the Hotel."
