Your Desert Escape Awaits

We are pleased to announce that Indian Palms Vacation Club will reopen on October 1st, and we can’t wait to welcome you back to this desert oasis where you can sunbathe under gently swaying date palms, play 18 holes of world-class golf, and enjoy a touch of vintage Hollywood charm in nearby Palm Springs.

With your health remaining our top priority, please see our most recent safety measures that we’ve implemented to ensure you Vacation Well. Please note that our pool, hot tubs, and activity room remain closed until further notice, and we will be sure to keep you updated. With the wider Palm Springs area also reopening, see what’s open along with any current restrictions  as per county ordinance. We will be sure to keep you informed as things change.

In the meantime, there’s no limit of fun ways to explore and play in the Palm Springs area!
