Opened in 1926, La Quinta Resort & Club is the longest running resort in the Palm Springs desert area and one of only two resorts for which a city has been named.  A member of Hilton’s Waldorf Astoria Collection, the resort offers unmatched recreational amenities with 5 championship golf courses, the 23,000 square foot destination Spa La Quinta, 23 tennis courts, superior meeting facilities and a variety of distinctive Spanish mission style accommodations.  The resort grounds evoke a feeling of peace and tranquility with an exclusive club atmosphere.  Set amidst 45 acres of orange, lemon and grapefruit trees, framed by towering palms, the resort is defined by its meandering pathways not hallways and a stunning array of colorful flower gardens.
