Golf, hiking and dining converge in this chic desert hideaway.
La Quinta, California, is famous for golf courses, swimming pools and towering palms, but this chic desert hideaway offers more than year-round sunshine. A getaway to the area’s wild beauty, travelers can spend the day exploring the natural wonders of Joshua Tree National Park, hiking to a leafy palm oasis, soaring in a hot air balloon or taking an open-air jeep tour across the Coachella Valley’s eerily (and aridly) beautiful landscapes. Return to La Quinta’s whitewashed village to indulge in one-of-a-kind shopping, upscale dining, relaxing spas and "splashy" nightlife — a late-night dive into the hotel pool.

Rancho Mirage
Overview
The luxe life meets wild desert in Rancho Mirage. Home to premier golf and tennis clubs and the five-star hotel Ritz-Carlton, this affluent city has far more Bentleys than Buicks cruising its manicured streets. Money makes all things possible, so Rancho Mirage's well-heeled residents even have their own "mirage" at the River, an entertainment and shopping hub surrounded by sparkling (man-made) rivers and lakes.
