Indian Wells, California is famous for its tennis and golf, and rightfully so, with a frankly outrageous number of award-winning courses and courts concentrated within the greater Palm Springs area. The humongous Indian Wells Tennis Garden, which hosts the BNP Paribas Open in March every year, affords spectators the rare chance to be up close with international superstars the likes of Nadal and Federer. Meanwhile, the Indian Wells Golf Club is home to two of the most enjoyable and well-manicured courses this side of California. With such stunning facilities, you’d be remiss to exclude the area from your vacation bucket list. Here, we’ve compiled a list of the 10 best Vrbo vacation rentals in Indian Wells, for your staying pleasure.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on March 13, 2023.

1. A winsome remodeled condominium (from USD 150)

This gated property feels like an exclusive boutique hotel. Besides the lovely decor, special attention has clearly been paid to the needs of the vacationing couple. You’ll find everything you could want already provided in this listing, from crockery to bathrobes. If the beauty of the unit isn’t convincing enough, it also boasts a huge shaded private patio, three delightful pools, and two tennis courts, the latter two communal facilities. But perhaps the best thing about the Deauville is its location – you’ll be able to leave your car behind and walk to downtown Palm Springs, which is only a few blocks away!

This listing only rents by the month; the price displayed is for a 29-day average.
