What this desk covers

Resorts, hotels, venues and retreat planning, plus restaurants where a record shows group or private dining. Coverage is Rancho Mirage, Palm Desert, Indian Wells, La Quinta, Indio. Outside these five cities, AICV keeps only a small set of regional anchors that visitors and relocating founders ask about by name. It does not actively cover Palm Springs, Cathedral City, Desert Hot Springs, Coachella or other communities.

A record must be open and operating, in scope, fit a desk, and have an official contact. Inclusion is never paid and never depends on buying anything. AICV maintains up to 1,000 records across its desks.

How to read a record

Observed by AICV means public facts AICV recorded on the date shown. The business has not confirmed them, and a business may have changed since.

Submitted information, identity unconfirmed means someone submitted it for the business, and AICV has not confirmed who. It never replaces a sourced field. Verified by the business means the owner approved the record and an ownership check cleared.

AICV checks official websites on a schedule to see whether they answer and whether they changed. Those checks do not update hours, addresses, services or capacities, so each fact keeps the date it was recorded.

AICV does not check live availability, quote prices, take bookings or take payments. Contact each business through its official site or phone number.
