WHERE TO STAY

There are plenty of places to stay in Palm Desert, Palm Springs, and the surrounding areas! Please keep in mind that our wedding venue is located in Rancho Mirage, which is right outside of Palm Desert and is a roughly 25 minute drive from Palm Springs. We plan to stay in Palm Desert, but please pick whatever location works best for you! We'd strongly encourage you to book early. This is the best time of the year to be in the desert and accommodations get expensive closer in.

AIRBNB & VRBO

We strongly encourage you to explore Airbnb, VRBO, or any similar platforms. Palm Springs, Palm Desert, and surrounding areas are popular destinations (Coachella is held here!) and have plenty of houses, condos, and casitas for rent. Book early!

HOTELS

The valley has a large variety of hotels to choose from. While we encourage you to explore accommodations with Airbnb, VRBO, or similar platforms, here are a few hotels that we would recommend based on their popularity.

WHERE TO FLY INTO

Palm Springs International Airport

3400 E Tahquitz Canyon Way, Palm Springs, CA 92262, USA
(760) 318-3800

This will be the closest and easiest airport to fly into, however, since it is a small airport with limited airlines, it may be the most expensive. Book early!

Ontario International Airport

Ontario, CA 91761, USA
(833) 435-9668

This is the second closest airport to our wedding venue. It is a little over an hour drive to Palm Springs so you may consider renting a car. We did this on our first visit and it was super easy. It is a scenic drive and went by quickly!

Los Angeles International Airport

1 World Way, Los Angeles, CA 90045, USA
(855) 463-5252
LAX is another viable option and you will have the most airline options here. Los Angeles is a little over a 2 hour drive and, depending on when you arrive, you may hit traffic. Like with the Ontario airport, you may consider renting a car. That said, it is a great third option if the first two airports do not work for you.

San Diego International Airport

N Harbor Dr, San Diego, CA 92101, USA
(619) 400-2404

Lastly, San Diego Airport. About a 2.5 hour drive and would require a car rental. Depending on traffic, it could be an easier drive than Los Angeles.
