We will never stay anywhere else in Palm Springs or Indian Wells 😍 Sands has the BEST service and staff, as well as incredible food and comfortable accommodations. Their service goes above and beyond and we feel welcomed like family every time. As an adults only boutique hotel, the ambiance is so peaceful. Truly a desert oasis! Everyone should experience Sands at least once… but i’ll return 2-3 times a year as long as i live in CA.

Can’t rave enough about Sands. The hotel staff are amazing, genuinely good people , Luis is a great manager , and makes sure that your stay is nothing short of incredible. The pool is always busy, so go early if you want a cabana . The cabanas on the left are first come first served. The Pink Cabana restaurant is another great feature of the property… you can grab a drink , grab dinner, or lite bites and just walk right upstairs to your room. I’ve stayed here several times, each gets better and better !

Please do not book this hotel. Upon arrival they mentioned they are the only luxury hotel in the area, they are not, our room was not properly clean, I found long hairs in the bathroom floors and drain bugs running around, the room smelled like sewer and mold, the smell was so intense we opened the window but it was too hot so we had to light scented candles inside and still did not work/ I kindly spoke to the front desk agent, she said sorry we will send someone to clean tomorrow? I would have preferred a change of room, but she did not know how to handle. we cleaned the bathroom ourselves and the smell was terrible for 2 days, close to 1000 dollar stay not worth it, please avoid this hotel

Loved this boutique hotel- adults only, super convenient to get to Empire Polo Field in Indio, CA. Great staff and service, tasty food, perfectly sized pool. Rooms were super clean and the decor was quite chic. Excellent shower pressure and comfortable beds! Truly enjoyed my stay and they surprised me with cookies for my birthday- these personal touches are so thoughtful and make a big difference. Thank you to the team at Sands- I will most certainly be back!

We were two girls getting out of town stayed at this cute boutique Hotel. I loved their juices and young lettuce salad with the grilled chicken. Such a cute little café to eat at. We also had drinks and food at poolside so fun and great service. Everything was excellent. I love that salad so much I had to get it all three days.
