Fantastic Pre-Season Soccer in Palm Desert…read more - - - - - - - - February, 2026 Visit We visited Palm Desert to see our St. Louis CITY Soccer Club (SC) play Austin in pre-season MLS soccer at the Coachella Valley Invitational Tournament, and we had a GREAT TIME!! The Coachella Valley Invitational Tournament is pre-season soccer for men (MLS) and women (NWSL), played at the Empire Polo Club in February each year. We have visited Palm Desert for many years, and have visited before and after the tournament the past couple years, but have missed attending; thankfully schedules aligned this year. After watching previous games on YouTube, this year we got to be there in person! The tournament's site offers some challenges on finding General Admission tickets; after some time we found that the Los Angeles Galaxy (LAG) were managing the tickets; a quick call with Miguel, who was very helpful, and we soon had our tickets in the app ready to be there for the soccer. Thanks, Miguel!! Parking for soccer was easy to find based on the online map and following the signs. For food, under the semi-permanent tent they have food trucks and an open bar. Here is little shade on the fields; some palm trees in the corners offer a place to cool off; otherwise if the skies are clear, the Palm Desert sun will provide copious doses of Vitamin D to lift your spirits. DJ Alf Alpha provided dance tubes all day and there were various soccer skills for fans to participate in. Even when the weather is not as nice as it was for us, this is still a great facility, with low humidity. Fun fact... the Salton Sea is the second lowest point in the US, after Badwater Basin / Death Valley; if I calculated correctly, the Empire Polo Club elevation is 5-20 feet. Thank you to everyone who makes the Coachella Valley Invitational possible! As Major League Soccer transitions its season to match the rest of the world, and to spread across two years, but no soccer in cold Jan/Fen nor hot July/Aug, we hope you'll continue the tournament as a mid-season break tourney. ----- ----- -----

The Polo Club is a big and varied place. They do actually have polo fields there. AND, they also…read morehave other areas. Today I was there for the soccer invitationals. I've been for others things. The dog show, for instance. It's a nice outdoor space. There are areas that are very rich in foliage and give plenty of shade. The staff has always been nice and helpful, from the parking people to the security and cashiers, I've never have anyone be ambivalent. Food is, well, epic expensive. If you plan to spend $30 on food and $10 on drinks, you can get by. Beer was not outrageous though, which was a surprise. I definitely recommend going. Parking has always been easy. Some events it's free parking, others it costs, so plan ahead.

For over 30 years, my friends and I have been visiting the Coachella Valley for golf. The Indian…read morePalms Country Club is one of the places we go to "play and stay". I travel a lot, and I'd say the hotel rooms are good for the price. They show a bit of wear from frequent guests, but they're generally clean and well-kept. The mattress is comfortable, the sheets and towels are fresh, and the furniture is in good shape. The room is one thing, but the overall hotel experience is another--and that's where things fall short. Examples: The hotel is not staffed on-site, around the clock. One evening, I returned to my room only to discover my key card didn't work. I went over to the security booth. Although the security team aren't hotel employees, they fortunately had a master key that let me back in. It was lucky I planned to stay in for the night, since they couldn't issue me a new key. If that master key hadn't worked, they would have had to contact an on-call hotel employee. The key cards and room locks were a bit finicky. Our group had booked five rooms in total, and I wasn't the only one who ended up locked out in the middle of the stay. I understand that business is slow during the summer, but the hotel suspends its cable subscription during the low season (?) I understand that almost everyone has a mobile phone nowadays. Is that the reason telephones have been removed from the rooms? There used to be an ice machine by the hotel laundry room, another in the cart barn, and one more in the clubhouse kitchen. Now, the clubhouse kitchen has the only one left. One morning, as our group was getting ready to head out for a round of golf, we learned that the machine broke down overnight--and there wasn't any fresh ice anywhere on the property! It seems the hotel management office hasn't been open for some time. For check-ins or handling other hotel-related matters, head over to the golf pro shop inside the clubhouse. Putting sentimentality aside, I'm giving a low score in the hope that ownership takes this review as an opportunity for improvement. I also can't overlook the chorus of complaints from my travel companions. Finally, I'll give Nick and Samantha "five stars". Interacting with them, I can tell they're trying--but I think ownership is impeding their efforts.

I've been to Coachella 3 times before and this year I went both weekends. I was here in the early 2000's before it became what it is now and I can tell you it's massive now. Before this year, the last time I was here was in 2013 and the stages were nowhere near as big and high tech as they are now. Favorite set this year was Nine Inch Noize at Sahara, Ceremony inside the Sonora tent, Suicidal Tendencies, etc. It's the best music festival in the world and worth the hefty price tag. Concert tickets are just about $100 plus dollars, so you're able to see so many artists for less than a standard L.A. venue ticket. HIghly recommend doing it once in your lifetime, but it is exhausting. Don't go back to work for a week after you attend all three days and book a spa day or a massage, the Monday after.

Don't get me wrong though, Justin Beiber was fun and he played our favorite song, "Beauty and a Beat." We got tier 2 tickets since tier 1 was sold out quick. Try to get these tickets during presale to avoid purchasing resale price which is totally not worth. Also make sure to book hotels/airbnb asap because pricing may increase depending on the lineup and demand! Early the cheaper, I guess. This year was amazing because they were lots of good artists like Bigbang, Subtronics, Isaiah Rashad, JB, Swae Lee, Central Cee, Foster the People and etc. I heard camping was a cool experience but I hate waiting in line for showers and I also heard that some camps got blown away by the dust storm. Mask up! My favorite stage is probably the Dolab stage because it's such a vibe and good for aesthetic pictures. The Sahara is also nice because of the lights and lasers. Food there is all overpriced. I paid like $60 for like two pizzas and a drink. Hungry though so you gotta do what you gotta do, lol. This year Coachella did a collab with Gap and they had an area where you are able to make your own custom hoodie with unique patches! I missed out on it because the line was outrageous!

SHORT ANSWER: Are you a Polo expert? Not to worry so please come and experience something special…read morein CV. I know people who have lived here for decades and have never been because they did not understand the sport or felt welcomed. LOCATION: Spectacular, you need to be here to appreciate it without a music festival going on. Remember there are more than one venue here, Eldorado Polo Club had their opening day on December 28th but for anyone new, Empire comes to mind. FACILITY: First class everything which is not saying it is exclusive, it is approachable but very nice no matter there you choose to watch from. Tailgating is a blast just bring a large umbrella or EZ UP. FOOD OPTIONS: The Cantina at Eldorado is open but check ahead of time for very casual dining and beverage options. OVERALL VALUE: This is fun at any price, tailgating tickets can be had at the Eldorado Polo Club website. TIP: If you're new, this post is for you. Do a little research and get outside and have some fun with family and friends even if you have zero idea what going on.

Taking advantage of trying out the classes abs gym was the ideal way to see if this felt right to us. I was introduced to the class of 6 people as a potential home buyer and not one person greeted me nor acknowledged my presence. It was the beginning of a week of outright racism (I am Chinese American) and bigotry. It felt surreal and outraged. Each day I participated in type of activity I was met with the same indifference and rudeness. Also purchased some items at the pro shop and was accused of stealing a skirt!! If you want to live in a racist community that doesn't welcome people of color this is the place for you.

This was my second day at PGA West, this time playing the Jack Nicklaus Tournament Course. All the…read morestaff at PGA West are super nice while taking care of your bags and getting checked-in as well as leaving the course after the round. This course is totally different as it was similar to many of the courses in NorCal. In fact it reminded me of Cordevalle in San Martin. I played the blue tees at about 6500 yards and the course was in excellent condition. The fairways are perfect and the greens were super smooth. Jack Nicklaus likes to put weird things like water, mounds, valleys and some bunkers in the fairways. There was an amazing par-5 which ended in an island green. I did notice that the green had a bunker in the back which could catch long shots (which happened to me). Best approach is to go as far as you can along the fairway before hitting on the green. The reason is that the wind tends to be in your face. The course was a little hard so shorter approaches were the plays of the day. I really had a great time at the two PGA West courses and will definitely come back again. I recommend these courses as part of one's bucket list to play.

In just a short time here we met allot of new friends and some We consider very dear friends that we will cherish our new friendships. This luxury park is a true lifestyle. The restaurant has superb service and the food was outstanding. The golf course can be a bit intimidating with all the water feature but beautiful. The entire MCC staff is extremely attentive, professional and very helpful in all your request and needs. I highly recommend this park. Stay in a water front view lot or a extremely private lot. You will not find a better place. This is a true 5 star Luxury Motorcoach Resort not a run of the mill campground. One stay at MCC and I am sure you will agree. Have a Blessed Day !!!
