Set in the courtyard of a 1940s hacienda and bordered by terraced beds of flowers, trees, and its own restaurant, the sunken clubhouse court at the La Quinta Resort & Club has always seemed like a symbol of the resort’s commitment to tennis. Tennis there burst onto the national stage in 1978 when a consortium of former players led by Charlie Pasarell set out to build the finest resort tennis club on the planet. It became one of the first resorts to offer all three playing surfaces—hard, clay, and grass (though the grass is now gone)—and Pasarell and company made sure it rose to national attention by staging a professional tournament that eventually spawned into own stadium. Those were heady days and the tournament was the springboard for what is now the BNP Paribas tournament in nearby Indian Wells.
From the very beginning, I’ve been one of La Quinta’s staunchest partisans. Its Clubhouse Court is hands-down the most beautiful court at a resort anywhere, and the later addition of a spa next door and a courtside fitness center only seemed to add to the allure. At 21 courts—16 hard and 5 Har-Tru—it remains one of the larger resort complexes in the desert, and the facility has supplemented its tennis with the addition of 8 pickleball courts. The setting is magnificent, the rooms exceptionally comfortable, the cuisine excellent.
The original Spanish hacienda-style hotel and its 20 cottages opened in 1926 and immediately attracted Hollywood celebrities and California moguls, who braved 20 miles of bad road beyond Palm Springs to reach this retreat among citrus trees at the foot of the starkly imposing Santa Rosa Mountains. Since then the road has improved and the resort grown to 620 casitas and 98 villas. Yet this doesn’t feel like a large hotel. The scale remains low—nothing taller than two stories—and the rooms have been cleverly arranged around numerous small garden-like courtyards each containing a small swimming pool and hot tub (all in all, there are 41 pools and 53 hot tubs).
Although it is no longer difficult to reach the rest of Palm Springs desert and its many restaurants and galleries, there is little incentive to leave the resort. All the rooms are a short stroll from a flower-bedecked plaza of shops and restaurants, so why get in your car when you can stroll over to the Adobe Grill for fishbowl-size margaritas served in hand-blown glassware from Guadalajara or its superb dishes from various regions of Mexico, like grilled rack of lamb with roasted corn and date tamale from the Yucatan or Caldo de Mariscos, a southwestern bouillabaisse? Unless you’re here in March and have tickets to the Indian Wells Tennis Tournament, you’ll be perfectly content staying on property, playing tennis and relaxing at the spa or around one of the pools.
The consortium that started the tennis club—Charlie Pasarell, Arthur Ashe, Stan Smith, Bob Lutz, Tom Gorman, Marty Riessen, Roscoe Tanner, and Dennis Ralston—guaranteed by location and design that the courts would be a focal point of the resort. Tables from a restaurant and bar, now renamed Centre Court Cafe and filled with tennis photos, spill out onto the flower-filled patio overlooking the sunken clubhouse court. The complex is further anchored by a swimming pool, fitness center, and tennis pro shop. The effect encourages hanging out, before and after matches.
Tennis Staff: Kevin Connolly took over as tennis director on March 1, 2019. A graduate of South Carolina’s Coastal Carolina University, where he played Division 1 NCAA tennis, Connolly has been part of the desert tennis scene since 1992, most recently as the director of the Peter Burwash International-managed Westin Mission Hills Resort. He inherits a well-oiled program, known for its quality game matching and a roster of weekly activities that include drill sessions, clinics, Cardio tennis, and, during periods of peak demand, junior clinics.
Court Complex: There are 21 tennis courts—16 hard and 5 Har-Tru—and 8 pickleball courts.
Off Court
Golf Courses: Golfers who stay here can test themselves on 90 inspired holes, including the TPC Stadium, Jack Nicklaus Tournament, and Greg Norman courses at nearby PGA WEST and the resort’s own Pete Dye Mountain and Dunes courses. If they come up lacking, they can always check into the acclaimed Jim McLean Golf School.
Spa & Fitness Center: La Quinta 23,000-square-foot spa is remarkable for its elegant South of the Border architecture and abundant outdoor treatment rooms that manage to be both private and open to views of the sky, stars, and haunting desert mountains. Workout enthusiasts got a 4,000-square-foot fitness center adjacent to the tennis clubhouse. That handsome building has counterpane windows on both sides, with the cardiovascular equipment set to look out on the courts, and contains a full suite of LifeFitness machines and dumbbells as well. The center also has a lengthy roster of daily workouts, including yoga, Pilates, aqua-aerobics, stretch classes, and power walks.
Accommodations
There are 786 rooms, suites and villas mostly arrayed around gardenlike courtyards with swimming pools and outdoor whirlpools.
Getting there
Seasons: The resort is open year-round but confine your tennis vacation to the period from October to early May. High season typically begins in mid January and extends through April.
Travel Instructions: The resort is 19 miles from Palm Springs International Airport.

Rod’s passion for tennis is contagious, and his ability to tailor lessons to suit individual needs is truly impressive. Rod’s teaching style strikes the perfect balance between being encouraging and challenging, making each session enjoyable and highly productive. I had never played tennis before meeting Rod, and his knowledge, patience, and clear instructions significantly improved my skills and confidence on the court.
Whether you are a beginner (like me!) looking to learn the fundamentals or an experienced player wanting to refine your technique— I cannot recommend Rod enough as a tennis instructor!
I’d also like to take a moment to recognize Kevin, as well. I haven’t had tennis lessons with Kevin, but he is so kind and welcoming each time I visit and appears to be an amazing club manager.
I highly recommend La Quinta Tennis!

We have been staying at the La Quinta resort for years and their tennis program just gets better and better. Kevin, Ernie, and the rest of the tennis staff continuously work hard to keep the clinics and lessons fun and highly competitive, while giving players an incredible cardio workout! They are very responsive in the tennis club house and scheduling is always easy to do. We have played tennis at many other resorts that we have visited around the world, and none of them have a tennis program compared to the one here. The setting is gorgeous with the mountains and palm trees surrounding the courts, and there is no where else I would rather play! The pickleball courts are amazing too – and there are always players looking for others to play with, so it’s easy to pick up a game anytime!

I highly recommend Rod as your tennis instructor at La Quinta Resort. Rod is an experienced, knowledgeable, talented and enthusiastic coach who will enhance any aspect of your game that you wish to focus on. Rod’s lessons are thoughtfully constructed and valuable for any player at any level of play. If you are lucky to play in one of Rod’s clinics, you will find them fast and fun! Rod’s high energy and positive approach to teaching tennis are much-loved by all of us who have been lucky to have had him as our teacher!

We can’t say enough nice things about the La Quinta tennis program. Our family has been visiting the Resort for decades at this point and the main draw has always been the tennis. The clinics and lessons are top notch and the setting couldn’t be prettier. Thank you La Quinta Tennis for so much fun over the years!
JT
La Quinta tennis resort is our family’s favorite place to go to every year during Thanksgiving. In fact, it has become our family tradition to come here because we always have so much fun. We take tennis clinics during our stay here. Coach Rod is outstanding, making you exercising hard and having fun at the same time. Coach Rod is definitely one of the reasons we come every year.
We have also been enjoying Tracey Austin’s family clinics during Thanksgiving. She is inspirational in promoting tennis with focus on families. It’s amazing to be able to meet a former number one tennis player.
In addition, all staff at La Quinta resort are professional and friendly. You feel extremely welcomed the moment you step in the tennis pro shop.
We are definitely coming back every year to enjoy our family time together at La Quinta Resort!
JC
Our family had the best time at the resort over Thanksgiving! With my husband and three young kids all loving tennis, we couldn’t have asked for better experience. Tracy Austin’s family clinic was a true highlight—engaging, fun, and such a great way for all of us to play and connect on the court.
My husband, kids, and I also took several tennis clinics and private lessons with Coach Rod, and he was absolutely fantastic. The clinics were fast-paced and fun, and Rod really takes the time to observe your game and give personalized tips that actually make a difference.
We’re already looking forward to coming back!
BB
Rod is the best pro in the valley!!!

Another fabulous holiday in the desert at La Quinta! The tennis development center is a home away from home! The beautiful setting and friendly staff goes above and beyond welcoming families and encouraging a lifelong love of tennis! We will be back!

I LOVE COACH ROD!! I have had many different coaches over the past few years and he has helped me tremendously with both my consistency and match play. I don’t plan on going anywhere else any time soon 🙂

I highly recommend taking a tennis lesson from the pro’s at La Quinta. Whenever I stay there I always schedule an hour to get a hit in and listen to the wisdom that they have to offer. I always pick up a tip or 2 that I can apply immediately to my game or in a match. I especially have enjoyed my lessons with Ernie Ives the last 2 years. He is a highly skilled player and coach who will definitely help your technical, tactical, physical, and mental game.

La Quinta Resort offers an exceptionally well-structured program and the tennis facilities at La Quinta are really top-notch. The clay courts, in particular, were a delight to play on – expertly groomed and providing the perfect balance of give and grip. But most important, the overall ambiance of the tennis center is welcoming and professional, making it a fantastic environment to hone your skills.
The daily tennis program there offers a great variety of options for all different skill levels,-clinics, live ball play, intensive camps, etc. however the true gem is their exceptional coaching staff, and in particular, Ernie. His expert instruction, focus on professional technique & winning strategies, his specialized knowledge of clay court play, and his ability to inspire a deeper enjoyment of the game have resulted in a significant improvement in my game. I wholeheartedly recommend La Quinta Resort’s tennis program, and I cannot recommend Ernie highly enough to anyone looking to elevate their game. He is a truly gifted coach and a tremendous asset to the resort.

I wanted to give a big shout out to Ernie Ives. I had tennis lessons with Ernie and he helped me get to the next level. He not only helped with the fundamentals, but included strategies that I really enjoyed and were a huge part of my game improvement..

Every time I am in the Coachella valley, I have to take a lesson with Jose Betancourt. I have taken multiple lessons with him and can confidently say that he is an outstanding instructor. He is always very patient, encouraging and brings such an unmatched level of enthusiasm and understanding to every lesson. It is an absolute joy to have Jose as an instructor and would recommend to anyone looking to improve in tennis!
EC
I have gone back several times and taken multiple lessons with Jose Betancourt. Jose is an exceptional tennis instructor. His ability to simplify complex techniques and make them easy to understand is unmatched. Not only does he bring a deep knowledge of the game, but his enthusiasm and positive energy make every lesson enjoyable. He’s patient, encouraging, and truly invested in his students’ improvement, whether they’re beginners or more advanced players. Jose has an incredible talent for building confidence, and his commitment to helping each student reach their full potential is truly inspiring. It’s clear that he’s not just teaching tennis—he’s fostering a love for the sport in everyone he coaches!

My husband and I have been taking tennis lessons with Ian Mindell for several years. Ian is an amazing tennis pro — he has tremendous tennis knowledge and great attention to detail. Plus, he always makes it fun. He has an amazing ability to work with all different tennis skills. The tennis facilities at La Quinta are among the best we have seen. We keep coming back because we love playing with Ian and using the La Quinta courts

All of the teaching pros at La Quinta Resort that I’ve had the pleasure of being on the court with have been fantastic! I especially want to commend Ernie Ives for what he brings to their program! He has a great way of getting the best out of you, and finding little things in your game to work on, both technically and strategically, that can make a big difference overall. You can always see his genuine love of the game, which is infectious when he’s teaching! Thank you Coach Ives!!

Tennis at La Quinta is some of the best in the country with a stadium courts, hard courts and clay courts. For decades, it has drawn some of the top players in the world. I have gone for many years and book the tennis pro Ian Mindell months in advance. He is exceptional. His love of the game, his knowledge of the game and his extraordinary ability to connect with players has made him a staple at La Quinta and a pro guests come back to year over year. The history of La Quinta, the Spanish architecture and the setting are spectacular.

I have spent upwards of 20+ days at La Quinta obtaining coaching from Ian, Markus and hitting with Cesar and have enjoyed every minute of it. The coaching is some of the best around, the courts and amenities superb! There is a reason why the pro’s frequent here and use it for their base during Indian Wells Open.

I have taken lessons with Ian Mindell and have been thoroughly impressed with the quality of his instruction.

I have been hitting at La Quinta for the last several months. The programming and drills have been top notch, and the tennis pros have all been very high quality, both in hitting ability and instruction. Both Ernie and Jose are terrific pros with a lot to offer even highly rated players. Of course, the setting is gorgeous as well. I highly recommend this tennis resort for any level of players.

Beautiful atmosphere with highest quality tennis instruction. Look forward to coming back first chance I get!

TENNIS HEAVEN… it was a few years since I had been to the Resort but going back this last March was a quick reminder of just how beautiful this property is. I brought a group of tennis players with me and Kevin Connolly and the entire tennis staff treated us like royalty. Not only is this the perfect place for tennis players, but the grounds are stunningly beautiful. If you haven’t had a chance to visit this spot yet, you need to put it on your bucket list.

Tennis program is one of the best I’ve been to. Hope to come again.

I take weekly lessons at La Quinta Resort from Rod Suarez who is an amazing tennis coach. I have taken many lessons from other instructors and have been to many tennis camps, and Rod is the absolute best. His knowledge, energy and enthusiasm are unsurpassed. He works me very hard and makes my lessons fun and exciting. Rod is such a positive and happy person and he is truly a joy on the court. My lessons with Rod are the highlight of my week!
