We stayed here using time share points. We were very pleased. Yes, the room was very small, but we didn't spend that much time in it. Partial kitchen was adequate for our needs and there was communal kitchen and barbeque grills for use by guests if one wanted to cook. Pool was very nice - warm like bathwater - with... More

The Sands of Indian Wells is a little hidden gem in beatiful Indian Wells, CA. It isn't a 5 star property, but the rooms are clean and the grounds are well kept. The salt pool is a definite plus and the jaccuzzi is large and very relaxing. Coffee is served every morning in the "Coachella" room if you do not... More

Sands of Indian Wells I liked our stay at the Sands of Indian Wells in Palm Springs, although the rooms can afford to be bigger, staff was helpful and friendly. The rooms are clean and had everything we needed. The kitchen is small but we didn’t cook, we ate out most days. We love to travel but hotels are not... More

This hotel/timeshare is located in the heart of Indian Wells, a very upscale community near Palm Springs. We purchased a week via "last minute vacations" and therefore are speaking from another perspective....the "last minute" crowd. We got a great deal for the week, so all the annoying parts of this timeshare reflect the price we paid. However, for people who... More

Have stayed here twice. Timeshare resort, so some amenities limited, but all have kitchens. Front desk folks nice and very helpful. I like that it is gated at night (no non-guests wandering in). Kid-friendly, large pool, can get loud in summer and on weekends but generally quiet during week in other months. Decor somewhat dated, but okay. Small apartment-like rooms... More

Okay, so this place is no five stars, and it does not have all the amenities you would associate with a timeshare/resort hotel, but for a family of four, we had a blast. We would definitely go back. The front entrance is under construction right now because the restaurant out front is moving to a new center right next to... More

We stayed at this hotel using an RCI week and it was a disappointment.. I can't really call it a hotel or resort. It is a modified motel. The "suites" are really just small rooms. And I mean small. The bathroom is so tiny, that the shower door doesn't open more than a foot because the door bangs up against... More
