Desert Disco

Built around the idea of never wanting to leave, this Indio villa delivers a resort-like experience in the heart of the Coachella Valley. The heated saltwater pool has a beach entry and spa, and with two cabanas and four hammocks arranged nearby, evenings spent under the desert sky have a slow, effortless rhythm. When the sun sets, the fire pit and alfresco dining area take over. A pickleball court, ping pong, and air hockey mean there's plenty to fill the days without venturing out – though the Coachella Valley festival grounds are a forty-five-minute walk away.
