The luxury location of La Quinta is fondly known as The Gem of the Desert. And within this city of precious stones, this house is one of the most beautiful diamonds. Lush, trailing foliage leads up the winding path to the entrance of this villa, where inside, the interiors exude warmth, elegance, and style. We love the rustic touches and natural fibres – think wicker, wood, and woven fabrics. But it’s the outdoors that make this diamond truly sparkle. Open the doors out to the pergola, where you can grill lunch on the barbecue and dine alfresco. Then lie back in the sun loungers, swim in the heated pool, or soak in the hot tub – it's like living in your own private resort. Speaking of which, as one of the USA’s leading golf destinations, you’re surrounded by world-class courses (your nearest is just over two miles away). You can spend a morning on the lush green, then the afternoon in the desert. In less than twenty-five minutes, experience the surreal landscapes of Coachella Valley National Park. After such action-packed days out, you’ll love coming back for margaritas by the poolside as you watch the stars.
