Should I Vacation in Indio or Palm Springs? Reasons You'll Love a Trip to Indio

  • Posted on

When people think of desert getaways in California, Palm Springs tends to steal the spotlight, but there’s another gem in the Coachella Valley that’s quickly becoming a favorite for vacationers: Indio. And if you're looking for a place that combines luxury, privacy, space, and fun, Indio might just be the better fit for your next vacation.

Why Vacation in Indio Instead of Palm Springs?

While Palm Springs is known for its retro-chic appeal and boutique shops, Indio offers more space, more flexibility, and a more relaxed vibe, without sacrificing access to world-class amenities and attractions. This is why people love booking a trip to Indio:

  • More space for larger groups: Indio vacation rentals tend to provide more square footage, bigger yards, and full-scale private amenities, perfect for families and group getaways, for a lower price than a similar property in Palm Springs.
  • Closer to major events: Heading to Coachella, Stagecoach, or the BNP Paribas Open? You're right in the action in Indio, with no need for long drives or crowded shuttles.
  • Better value: For the same budget, you’ll typically get more in Indio—think larger homes, private pools, game rooms, and more personalized stays.
  • Family and kid-friendly: Indio offers a quieter, more spacious atmosphere that is ideal for families traveling with children who need room to play and unwind.
