Welcome to La Quinta, the “Gem of the Desert.” Located in the Coachella Valley, nestled between the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains, La Quinta is known for its sunshine, golf, and scenic hiking and biking.

Home to over 25 golf courses, La Quinta has been called the “Golf Capital of the World” and the Robb Report has even named it “America’s Ultimate Golfing Destination”. You won’t want to miss PGA West with six championship courses designed by famous golf legends such as Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, and Greg Norman. Another quality course to try is the Arnold Palmer Classic Course at Silver Rock Resort. Both courses have stunning water features and massive bunkers that make them both challenging and fun.

If you’re up for adventure, La Quinta’s hiking and biking trails are the perfect way to get your heart pumping. The local trails are known for their spectacular mountain views and ease of access. A popular destination is the La Quinta Cove. With five trails to choose from, there is a trail for every day of the week and with all different types of terrain. Be sure to take and drink plenty of water.
