The property is beautiful and lives up to its IG. The bed was extremely comfortable. There is a wonderful smell in the rooms and throughout the property. The staff was kind and the vibe is relaxed. We appreciated the complimentary coffee in the morning. Can’t wait to go back!

Overall the service was very good . One room service meal some food we ordered was missing and there wasn't enough silverware /napkins as requested for the number of people ordering.But for the most part the food was very good at Cava and through room service. The rooms were very clean & nice views . I only wish we would've had some furniture (chairs) on balcony to sit out. I had a massage at hotel Spa which was also very nice.

This hotel is a special part of The Desert and Indian Wells...
This hotel is a special part of The Desert and Indian Wells history, while enjoying this property created by Desi & Lucy Arnaz.
Lovely property. Well located, easy access from within the Valley, with parking for our visitors. Can entertain friends in the bar/restaurant with an excellent light menu and always great entertainment. The big hotels are too much work with too many people. Excellent choices here nearby for dining and shopping. Vicky's great food and atmosphere next door.
Some reviews complain about the parking & resort fees. All fees totaled are still less than generic chain hotels in the same class. Or you can pay 2X to 3X at the Hyatt or Esmerelda, which of course accommodate different needs. IW Resort is a special gem until some generic chain acquires and ruins it. Charming rooms, lovely hotel. Excellent staff and management.
This hotel is located in one of the highest median income affluent neighborhoods in the Desert.

Everything takes longer to get to than anticipated due to traffic lights and slow drivers.
Apparently - Thursday nights in Palm Springs has a big carnival and streets are shut down. Parking is impossible. Avoid the area unless you are walking in.
Avoid the Nest - very expensive for diner-type food. They cater to those drinking in the bar more than restaurant. We were asked to move tables mid-meal to accommodate a party of 8 from bar.
LG Steakhouse is a must! Great service and food!

Indian Wells is a very small. but very wealthy bedroom community, sandwiched between Palm Desert and La quinta. The biggest attraction is the Tennis Gardens that host a national major tennis tournament every spring.

Hotel management and security needs to be educated better.
Hotel management and security needs to be educated better. Put guests at risk
Absolutely so dissatisfied, with the hotel managers handled this situation and our rooms should of been pro rated or refunded.
Crappy,
, only two Keri podafor a3 night stayfortwo people: so ridiculous all the apps that need to be downloaded. The booking was through booking.com. Then I received messages from turn Key and red awning. So basically, three emails/apps. Very very confusing. I would not recommend this at all. I feel insulted that I paid so much for this. I have been to this area multiple times for the Indian Wells tennis and this is the worst value I’ve ever had. I will definitely use the facilities I had on prior visits.
Overall the service was very good . One room service meal some food we ordered was missing and there wasn't enough silverware /napkins as requested for the number of people ordering.But for the most part the food was very good at Cava and through room service. The rooms were very clean & nice views . I only wish we would've had some furniture (chairs) on balcony to sit out. I had a massage at hotel Spa which was also very nice.
This is a well appointed hotel with a lovely pool and gardens, very picturesque. The staff are very attentive with pool side service and a nice restuarent attached which served very good food and cocktails. There is also a hot spa pool best for the cooler evenings. Free parking was a bonus. Lovely, quiet and relaxing. We will be back.
It's Iconic Palm Desert. Intimate, not one of those huge, sprawling "big box" hotels. Lots of details went into the room. A full top-shelf bar armoire with all the accessories needed! You can tell Kelly Wearstler, put her design touch into the room. Love the Waterworks fixtures!
The hotel is nice, the staff was very nice and welcoming. The check in process was very fast and was even able to check in earlier than expected. The pool area is amazing, the movie in the pool area was great and relaxing. The staff at the pool was very friendly and attending.
Business trip that ended up being the best getaway ever! I’ve stayed in many hotels and Indian Wells has the most comfortable beds and pillows ever. I find it hard to fall asleep while away from home and I had no problem here.
The hotel was beautiful and clean and the hotel in itself has great decors and aesthetics. The valet staff were very nice. The room was clean and housekeeping did a great job.
I was fortunate enough to get a ground floor with small patio. I requested this before my arrival and the hotel staff accommodated my request. thank you!
