The Polo Club is a big and varied place. They do actually have polo fields there. AND, they also…read morehave other areas. Today I was there for the soccer invitationals. I've been for others things. The dog show, for instance. It's a nice outdoor space. There are areas that are very rich in foliage and give plenty of shade. The staff has always been nice and helpful, from the parking people to the security and cashiers, I've never have anyone be ambivalent. Food is, well, epic expensive. If you plan to spend $30 on food and $10 on drinks, you can get by. Beer was not outrageous though, which was a surprise. I definitely recommend going. Parking has always been easy. Some events it's free parking, others it costs, so plan ahead.

Fantastic Pre-Season Soccer in Palm Desert…read more - - - - - - - - February, 2026 Visit We visited Palm Desert to see our St. Louis CITY Soccer Club (SC) play Austin in pre-season MLS soccer at the Coachella Valley Invitational Tournament, and we had a GREAT TIME!! The Coachella Valley Invitational Tournament is pre-season soccer for men (MLS) and women (NWSL), played at the Empire Polo Club in February each year. We have visited Palm Desert for many years, and have visited before and after the tournament the past couple years, but have missed attending; thankfully schedules aligned this year. After watching previous games on YouTube, this year we got to be there in person! The tournament's site offers some challenges on finding General Admission tickets; after some time we found that the Los Angeles Galaxy (LAG) were managing the tickets; a quick call with Miguel, who was very helpful, and we soon had our tickets in the app ready to be there for the soccer. Thanks, Miguel!! Parking for soccer was easy to find based on the online map and following the signs. For food, under the semi-permanent tent they have food trucks and an open bar. Here is little shade on the fields; some palm trees in the corners offer a place to cool off; otherwise if the skies are clear, the Palm Desert sun will provide copious doses of Vitamin D to lift your spirits. DJ Alf Alpha provided dance tubes all day and there were various soccer skills for fans to participate in. Even when the weather is not as nice as it was for us, this is still a great facility, with low humidity. Fun fact... the Salton Sea is the second lowest point in the US, after Badwater Basin / Death Valley; if I calculated correctly, the Empire Polo Club elevation is 5-20 feet. Thank you to everyone who makes the Coachella Valley Invitational possible! As Major League Soccer transitions its season to match the rest of the world, and to spread across two years, but no soccer in cold Jan/Fen nor hot July/Aug, we hope you'll continue the tournament as a mid-season break tourney. ----- ----- -----

We decided to have an adventure and attend their edgar allen poe speakeasy event. Traffic was…read moreheavier than expected so we were sheepish about arriving 5 minutes after the start time. I will say its located on a sizeable shopping lot. While there are adjoining shops, we found parking quickly. Just be prepared to walk a bit. Entering, the staff was still super friendly and had someone providing drinks to latecomers. Takes a few minutes to adjust to the dim lighting so aim to get there early. We found seats on the third to last row. Not the best view but thats a consequence of our own tardiness. For the best view, I'd recommend the raised table seats or getting seats at the front. We were given 4 drinks, in between the four performances. It did feel odd to have drinks handed to the edges of the aisle and passed over from person to person. Same with the cups that were now trash. Had to pass it over to hand it to staff. The staff did a fabulous job performing poe's stories, nailing the dramatic and intense melancholy one feels reading his pieces. And the drinks were passed out swiftly, with descriptions of what they entailed. We did note that the mixing wasnt consistent. Id have to switch with my partner's drink when it tasted too strong. And we werent given anything to stir it with. Also feel this would have been a more intimate experience if the seating consisted of mini tables with chairs or maybe if there was an aisle in the center so its not awkward passing items. But that would entail restructuring those theater seats. Overall, it was a great demonstration of the arts. Amazing job by all the performers! P.s. The bathrooms were also pretty clean and well-stocked, and this was even after the end of the show.

I surprised my husband for his birthday with tickets to see one of his favorite artists, Paul Anka…read more At 84 years young, his voice remains incredible and timeless. The concert was absolutely beautiful we truly fell in love all over again, as the music touched our souls and brought back so many emotions. The McCallum Theatre is a stunning venue spotless, very well organized, and filled with warmth. From the moment we arrived, every staff member was kind, courteous, and welcoming, which made the entire experience even more special. This was our second time visiting the theatre, and once again, it exceeded our expectations. We genuinely love coming here and look forward to many more unforgettable nights. Highly recommend this wonderful venue.

I have only been here almost a dozen times but each time we leave feeling better than we entered. Want to know why? Because we laughed so hard and shed some tears in the process. We were fortunate enough to have seen the Christmas show with Jeff's daughter. It was such a wonderful show with her pianist and saxophonist accompanying her and multiple costume changes. We also enjoyed seeing her father perform. I must say I look for the shows where it's mainly Jeff Hobson performing because he is so funny, so talented, and he has such incredible timing with quick wit that it literally tickles my brain. Arrive an hour prior to the show and enjoy the entertainment in the lobby. You can order something to drink from the bar. Just make sure you've made dinner plans before or after the show as there's no food available. You will be treated to either musical talent or magical talent prior to the main show in the auditorium. Choose the front row if you REALLY want to participate. Great for celebrating special occassions.

Wednesday, 4-15-2026: This is our second time here. We came to see Kyle and Mistie Knight…read more Mistie has her own Instagram where she shares very quick & easy recipes. When I heard they would be at Marvyn's, I made sure to secure tickets. The theater is nicely laid out and makes for an intimate experience. They have entertainment before the start of the show and an amazing bar. I believe this show was sold out. In the seating area they have hilarious sayings on the screen over the stage. Wish I could remember them. Photography is forbidden in the theater. Anyhow, they are true entertainment professionals and know how to work the room. There were several things they did that we had our mind boggled. But we're the types who don't want to find out and rather like keeping the mystery intact. Amazing really doesn't begin to describe their show. We were beyond impressed. They kind and gracious to do a meet & greet after the show. It was a most enjoyable and magical evening!

Super disappointed. First night staying at the hotel, and decided to have dinner and see the show…read more My server (who was also the bartender) was absolutely wonderful! I'm sorry to say that the food was an expensive disappointment. I had the Orange chicken and spring rolls. And I had not had carbs in several months so was supper excited. Unfortunately the spring rolls were ice cold on the inside, and the Orange chicken was just not very good. Frankly it all tasted like it was straight out of the frozen food section. And for $38 for the orange chicken I really wouldn't recommend. I wanted to give the food another shot during my stay, but turned out the kitchen wasn't open on weekdays. The entertainment for the evening was a gentleman singing karaoke. He did have a terrific jazz voice. It's a super cute space and has a lot of potential.

Went here while staying at the resort and getting free tickets to the show. We decided to eat…read moredinner while here, but we were kind of disappointed with the menu. It seemed all over the place AND very expensive for what you get. I started with a blackberry martini which the waiter proceeded to try to put on the table in a fancy way and ended up spilling half of it. It wasn't very good anyway. We didn't get bread to start, but noticed other tables getting it. My mom got the italian pizza for $16, so I expected it to be a big one. Instead, it was a personal sized one, which was really crumby and had no flavor. I got the prosciutto tortellini. The tortellini had good cheese, but the prosciutto made it very salty, and the chunks seemed kind of off. My dad got the lasagna and he was pretty happy with it. The show itself was pretty fun but had a weird vibe at the same time. Don't think we'll be back.

My husband found Red Barn close so we walked there (we Uber'ed from our resort to the other bar). From the moment we walked in I was wow'ed!! It is a total vibe.

All of the guys working there were so friendly and outgoing. Great service too! I highly recommend visiting when in the area.

Great decor and music though!

We ordered Chicken Marsala with whipped potatoes and the IW pasta with chicken added, sautéed in olive oil, spinach, mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes. The food was delicious! The menu includes appetizers, salads, sandwiches/wraps, dinner entrees, and dessert. HIGHLIGHTS: The lobby has a nostalgic theme of the 1960s and the decor was very chic. The entertainment schedule is on the hotel website. (click on the dining and entertainment link). Reservations for the show can be made by calling 1-760-345-6466 or by email: manuel@indianwellsresort.com I was leery after I got voice mail when I called, so I sent a follow-up email. To my surprise, I got a response by email and a phone call in a few minutes. HISTORY: The resort was originally designed and built by Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz in 1957 and named the Desi Arnaz Western Hills Hotel. We will bookmark this place and return again. If you go, don't forget to tell'em that Rosemary sent ya!
