Indian Wells Resort Hotel
I would stay here again. The staff were excellent. I asked for early check in and was granted it. It is never guaranteed. But you can always ask. The place was modern and very nice and comfortable.

The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert
Great location, close to El Paseo and reasonable proximity to Palm Springs, the airport and Joshua Tree. Clean, spacious, comfortable rooms equipped with a kitchen. Cons: $30/day parking, cleaning service did not refill shower amenities as requested.

Embassy Suites by Hilton Palm Desert
Hotel was ok. Staff was nice. Long line to get omelets in the morning and breakfast was only until 9 am, too early for spring break with kids and a check out at 11 am. Pool was not very clean. Overall an ok hotel but not great for the price (you pay an extra $15/night for parking as well)
