Indian Wells Resort Hotel
My personal opinion, too much smoking around other none smoking areas. My room was very squeaky everywhere you walked. The staff was great, the pool area was good.

Aqua Soleil Hotel & Mineral Water Spa
Property was nice with great views. We enjoyed the amenities. Was disappointed when we got ready for bed after a long day of travel and found hair all over the bed sheets. Clearly the sheets were not changed.
