Description The Desert Martini: Indian Wells

Set in the exclusive resort city of Indian Wells, here you'll be surrounded by tennis courts, golf courses, spas, and country clubs. With its mid-century aesthetic and high-end amenities, it’s the kind of place you imagine featuring in an early season of Mad Men. There’s even a cocktail cart, so you can practise making Manhattans. Nothing here feels out of place – everything from the art to the bedding feels meticulously chosen for this specific space. Outside, you'll have a private courtyard to sit out in, and shared grounds to explore. There's a communal pool, volleyball court and grass spaces for games of Bocce ball. And if you do want to get out and explore, Palm Springs is a short drive away, while there are all sorts of hiking opportunities in the San Jacinto Mountains behind the home.

Home truths:
*The pool is unfenced so the home has an age restriction of nobody under 12 years
* The pool isn’t heated, which you might notice on the rare cooler day in the Coachella Valley
* If your stay is less than a week, then you won’t have access to the laundry or the garage
*One guest would be on a single sofa bed in bedroom two
