DISCOVER THE ORIGINAL
Desert Hideaway
Welcome to La Quinta Resort & Club
Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the rugged Santa Rosa Mountains, the legendary La Quinta Resort & Club is the longest-running resort in the Palm Springs desert area and one of only two resorts in the country for which a city has been named. Spanning 45 vibrant acres, its verdant grounds are accentuated by beds of colorful flowers; fragrant orange, lemon, tangerine, grapefruit and tangelo trees; cypress trees and cacti; sparkling pools and waterfalls; and picturesque courtyards, all framed by towering palms.
A Storied Past
A quintessential example of California architecture, the property was originally developed by prominent businessman Walter H. Morgan, who purchased 1,400 acres from the Cahuilla Indian tribe and commissioned Pasadena-based architect Gordon Kaufman to mastermind an inviting hacienda-style hotel. Morgan enlisted Mexican laborers to craft more than 100,000 adobe bricks, 60,000 roof tiles and 5,000 floor tiles –with a total construction cost of $150,000 – for the original adobe structure.
Over the years, the property has grown from 20 cozy casitas to 620 guestrooms and 98 one-, two- and three-bedroom villas, yet it still retains the intimate, inviting atmosphere that has remained its hallmark. Every expansion has been carefully orchestrated to reflect the detail and integrity of Kaufman’s original award-winning architecture.
