An Oasis in Indian Wells
If you are looking for a shiny new house with all the typical Coachella Valley fare, this won't be your kind of place and probably never will be. If you would like a genuine experience in a home of historic significance -- a true hacienda-style home -- this two-story adobe oasis built in 1922 and one of the last of its kind, is for you. The house is owned (and has been carefully, lovingly, renovated) by two architects, who are literally the world's foremost experts in Spanish revival style homes in California. This gorgeous, private family villa with expansive grounds and carefully curated decor and touches was graciously open to our family by our warm hosts. Rarely have I reflected on a stay more often than I have this one. It was like staying in a dream. A+ hosts, A+ house, A+ kitchen, A+ fireplace, A+ master bath, A+ sleeping porch. Truly magical.

Beautiful, home with character!
We loved our stay at this home. The house itself is quite beautiful and incredibly charming. The outdoor space is tranquil and gorgeous. The home had plenty of space and every room was well appointed. Diane was very easy to communicate with and made sure that our every need was handled. Was an absolute pleasure to stay here!
