La Quinta Resort & Club

La Quinta Resort & Club is a landmark desert resort set against the Santa Rosa Mountains in La Quinta, California — part of the greater Palm Springs area. Originally opened in 1926 and known as "the original desert hideaway," the resort occupies sprawling grounds anchored by Spanish-style casitas, lush gardens, and mountain views that have drawn guests for nearly a century. For events and celebrations, the resort offers more than 190,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor event space accommodating groups from intimate gatherings to celebrations of up to 2,000 guests. Three ballrooms — the Fiesta, Flores, and Frank Capra — anchor the indoor offerings, ranging from the 5,952-square-foot Frank Capra Ballroom, named for the acclaimed Hollywood director who was a longtime guest, to the grand 17,176-square-foot Fiesta Ballroom. Outdoors, The Grove and the historic La Casa Patio and Courtyard provide scenic settings beneath date palms and open desert sky. The resort provides in-house catering, custom lighting design, vendor coordination, and a dedicated events team to support weddings, corporate gatherings, and social celebrations. On-site accommodations include 620 hacienda-style casitas and suites and 98 privately owned villas, making La Quinta Resort & Club a self-contained destination for multi-day events.
