The property was clean and old in general with an abundance of cheesy Lucille Ball and Ricky Ricardo prints on every corner of the hallways. Pool was nice but closes early at 10pm. My hotel room ac / heater sounded like an old lawn mower. No tub and shower is very narrow with moldy floor tiles since shower head sprays all over beyond the shower curtain. Worst part was even tho my stay was booked via Travelocity at a specific price with subtotal indicated on the app, the hotel added $25 extra PER night just so I could park my own car. Even tho there was an abundance of parking spaces. Not cool. Feels like a scam move. I would’ve declined the stay but i had an important work zoom meeting i had to log into quickly after check in time. Not a good experience here.

This was our second visit to the Indian Wells Resort within 10 years. We had a fantastic time once again. Both times we've stayed, the property has been incredibly quiet, likely due to the time of year—one visit was off-season, and the other was during Christmas week. We really enjoy the resort for its scenic beauty, relaxing pools, excellent room sizes, and overall reasonable service. If you're looking for more space, we highly recommend booking a suite rather than a standard room. The pricing is fair and reasonable, and we appreciate that there are no resort fees. The resort is often referred to as the Lucy-Desi Arnaz Resort, due to its history with the famous couple. While there are photos of Lucy and Desi throughout the property, particularly in black and white, which can be a bit overwhelming at times, we understand that they loved the resort and wanted to share their experience with future guests. The history behind the hotel is part of its charm, and it's clear that Lucy and Desi had a special connection to the place. There aren't many restaurants immediately near the property. We found ourselves traveling 15 minutes into Rancho Mirage for more desirable dining options. With the exception of Christmas Eve that had a prescribed menu and rather expensive dinner package, we did not see the restaurant or the gift shop servicing guests during our Christmas week stay. One tip: be sure to hang the "Do Not Disturb" sign on the inside of door if you need maid service.

This resort hotel has the worst customer service ever. They blamed all faults on the customers instead of having responsibility for what happened inside the hotel due to the fire alarm. I haven’t ever heard any hotel business tell their customer that they couldn’t sleep early and it’s their fault and 6:00am is business hour so it was ok for keeping fire alarm going on/off. Who cares about business hours when booking a room to sleep and rest in a hotel!?!

Front desk staff looked unhappy and impatient when we checked in. Coffee machine and refrigerator in the room didn’t work. We had to throw our food in the next day. Fire alarms were triggered in the early morning in that building.

I used to come here annually with my family every Xmas but what a downgrade this hotel has gotten. If you came here back when it was truly a resort with the ping pong tables , 2-3 jacuzzis , extensive swimming pool , grand buffets with a juicing machine you will be HUGELY disappointed. This property is like a haunted , stale place that you could see maybe back in 80s may have glimmered . It’s still livable /stayble but I wouldn’t recommend . This stale place is complete with lobby staff would were barely helpful , it’s like they wanted me out of their hair asap with whatever request I had . Their lobby had a crazy person giving me issues with refilling my water . And my family and I heard running sounds above us but we were on the third floor . The inclusive am breakfast was not special as well . For such a downgrade I have no idea why the hotel was charging the same prices back when it was truly a resort . I’ve never been so shell shocked by a booking , especially since I’ve stayed here so often . Now I hate to write this review but we filled out a room survey and heard nothing back . And I just hope others will not be disillusioned by the Expedia ad . They had put pictures of the previous resort and it looks like now they have taken it off .

It’s a cute hotel don’t get me wrong. Everything I Love Lucy, super cute but I’m not rating my experience on looks. I have a 2 year and kids tend to need their milk warmed, I don’t need to have a microwave inside the room but one for the hotel would be nice. What if you’re staying a week and decide to bring leftovers. There’s a fridge in each room why not have a common space where guest can heat things up? That was the least of my worries, my husband who is a heavy sleeper and I (not so much) went to bed around 11/12 just to be woken up by the upstairs guest. If it was the guest fault, I would not be leave a bad review because I know that’s not the hotel’s fault but when I tell you we (my husband and I) jumped out of our bed because we thought someone got in, is an understatement! I have never in my life been so scared! My husband quickly got out of bed and checked the room, everything was fine. Less than two minutes later, we hear the shower from our upstairs neighbors turn on. I cannot go back to sleep for an hour, I could hear every step they took. Finally, they went to bed and I was able to go to sleep. It was Christmas the next morning and we woke up late, all we wanted was to finish our trip to our families house so we left. I’m sure the amenities are great but unfortunately for us, we will not be returning to enjoy them.

Very disappointed in our stay here. Our reservation was for a pool or golf course view, we got a street view. Very noisy all night. The A/C wall unit sounded like it was falling off the wall it wa so loud and noisy. Someone sniff a smoke alarm downstairs early in the morning disrupting sleep. The water pressure went up and down in the shower. The staff was indifferent and brushed off the issues with our stay, poor customer service.The only nice part was the pool area, enjoyed the heated pool and sunshine but the rest needs a makeover badly. I cannot recommend this hotel at all.

I loved my stay in the former Lucy and Desi resort - the staff was delightful and helpful...I remedied a light bulb issue immediately; however, when I added one more night, they neglected to ask me if I wanted my room cleaned, whereupon it was not made when I arrived back later that evening...Overall, I highly recommend this resort as one of the best in the region.
