Palm Desert, California is known around the world as one of the anchor points of the legendary Coachella Valley and a crown jewel when it comes to Southern California real estate and luxury living. In the same vein, the number of Palm Desert grandiose event spaces that you can visit or rent out for a group is enormous. All that’s left to decide is which one!
Whether you’re interested in organizing a party, no one will ever forget, a desert music bash, or a celebration to the stars, Palm Desert has you covered. Come along as we discover the best event spaces in the city.
Casa de Monte Vista
Located in the heart of Palm Springs just minutes outside of Palm Desert, Casa de Monte Vista has been a coveted event space for decades. The renovated Spanish Mission-style home, which is the center of this large space, was built in 1928, and you’re sure to feel the history in every inch of this stunning and fantastical building. The casa is available for vacation rental, private or corporate events, weddings, retreats, birthdays, photoshoots, and more.
Privacy and comfort are always the top concerns of the owners of this walled and gated space which comes with four individual ‘casitas.’ Also included is a private entrance, warm saltwater pool and spa, massage deck, and indoor and outdoor venue areas. The formal dining room seats 12, while the outdoor seating area can hold as many as 50.
Chaparral Country Club
Golf courses and country clubs are no strangers to event hosting. All over the country, you’re likely to find a wedding, business retreat, or birthday celebration going on in one of these exclusive locations at some point during the year. What makes the Chaparral Country Club special among so many choices is its location within Palm Desert and its top-flight service.
Nuzzled into the side of the breathtaking San Jacinto Mountains, the Chaparral Country Club has everything you could possibly want from such a scenic destination. The golf course is a California favorite with 18 holes, and the clubhouse comes with all the best amenities, from a fully equipped bar and restaurant to tennis courts and pools. The El Paseo shopping district is just minutes away too.
The Bougainvillea Estate
If you want your next event to take place in a landscape that’s as close to paradise as you’re likely to find in the U.S., it’s hard to go wrong with the Bougainvillea Estate. Located in Indio just moments away, this deluxe event space doesn’t cut corners when it comes to providing guests with the best of the best.
Weddings are undoubtedly the main attraction for renters of the five acres that makes up this extraordinary estate. A stone fence circles the entire area, which comes with the 14k square foot mansion and its ten bedrooms, a fairytale-like 400-foot winding driveway, a one-acre lake, courtyards, fountains, and more. Mediterranean in style, this much-desired event space has been the talk of the town in Palm Desert for a while.
Monterey Country Club
Another outstanding country club offering Palm Desert grandiose event spaces is located just beside the Chaparral Country Club. The Monterey Country Club, which has its own storied past in Palm Desert, is perhaps the finest club in Riverside County. Wedding space, vacation rentals, and even real estate are all available at this legendary club, and the staff provides exceptional service should you have any questions about reserving event space.
Golf is, of course, one of the biggest attractors at Monterey Country Club, and their challenging 27 holes are sure to delight many of your event guests. The views of the Santa Rosa Mountains also make a memorable backdrop for any get-together. At the club proper, you can enjoy a full menu of delicious entrées as well as a bar and casual grill. The on-site pool and fitness center are yet two more reasons why this event space is one of the most coveted in Palm Desert.
Flannery Exchange
Mixed use spaces are one of the fastest growing architectural sectors in the nation. For good reason: they provide renters with much more flexible means to utilize their square footage throughout the calendar year while encouraging entrepreneurs to set up small businesses in greater numbers.
The mixed use space at the Flannery Exchange, minutes away from downtown Palm Desert, is one of the most exciting places to join the fashionable Uptown Design District and we hope it stays around. Inside and outside the building you can reserve office space, host meetings in person or online, or invite coworkers, friends, and family to your next event. Cafes, outdoor seating, and committed creative workspaces are all available as well.
Palm Valley Country Club
Our last entry on the list of the best Palm Desert grandiose event spaces is the extraordinary Palm Valley Country Club. In fact, ‘grandiose’ might not even be a grand enough word for the views and interior design that makes this event space such a stand-out in the city. Only ten minutes outside Palm Springs, it’s easier than ever for guests to shuttle in from the airport.
At the resort, you’ll find 36 holes of championship-level golf as well as all the amenities you’ll need to host the event of a lifetime. The Sunset Grill offers a delightful mix of traditional Americana cuisine, vegan and vegetarian dishes, and more. Whether you’re attending an event outdoors, indoors, or both, the Palm Valley Country Club has a little something for all of us.
