I decided to stay at the "Renaissance Esmeralda Resort & Spa, Indian Wells." I have stayed here before and had a very memorable stay. It's a little expensive, but you can have dinner at restaurants in the hotel and have drinks at the bar without going out. Room service is high quality as well.

Hotel Surroundings
I took a back road from San Diego. It was a winding mountain road and it was a strange experience to cross the mountain from San Diego into the desert. It seemed like there was nothing around the hotel except for the golf course, but I had to pass though the city to get to the hotel.
A gold course near the hotel.

Staff and Guests
It was not during busy season and there seemed to be more staff in the hotel than guests. They were all very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The bellboys were very attentive as well. I also received a ticket for a free drink at the bar and the bartender gave me free samples of beer and wine.
I only saw adults staying on a vacation. It was very cold, so most of the guests were staying to play golf. The hotel was quiet, but there was a big baseball event, so many baseball scout officials were staying.

Access
The hotel was easy to get to from the highway. There are no shops within walking distance from the hotel. There is nothing but a golf course around the hotel, so it was safe. There was a taco restaurant a 5 minute drive from the hotel which I enjoyed very much. There was also a Mexican supermarket across the street, and I could buy beer on my way home. Even if you don’t have a car you can call an UBER to get around places which is very convenient.

Summary
I had a very nice stay at this hotel. It is a luxury hotel in the countryside and is a perfect hotel for those who like playing golf. It is not located in a very convenient location, but it is worth getting to because the service is good and the rooms are beautiful and comfortable to stay in. I would love to stay here again.
