Why Book a Package vs. Going Solo?

🏨
Desert Hotels Are the Challenge
Palm Springs, La Quinta, and Indio hotels near shuttle routes sell out 6-8 months early. Wristbands? Still available. Good locations? Not so much. Lock in your spot now.
🌡️
Desert Logistics Matter
Coachella isn't Austin or NYC. Heat, distances, limited rideshare, and shuttle timing can make or break your weekend. We handle the coordination so you don't have to.
One Booking, Zero Hassle
No juggling hotel sites, wristband drops, shuttle schedules, and airport transfers separately. We bundle everything in one clean package tailored to your group.
🎯
Local Desert Expertise
We know which hotels have reliable shuttle access, which airports make sense, how to time your arrival, and where NOT to stay. Desert festival logistics are different.

What's Included in Your Package

🏨
Desert Accommodations
Hand-selected hotels in Palm Springs, La Quinta, Indian Wells, or Indio. Verified shuttle access, pool amenities, and verified reviews. We avoid the problem properties.
🎟️

Where to Stay: Desert Hotel Strategy

Your hotel choice determines your stress level. Prioritize: (1) shuttle access, (2) pool/AC quality, (3) distance from festival grounds.

🏖️ Palm Springs

  • Distance: 30-40 min shuttle ride
  • Best for: Full resort experience, restaurants, nightlife
  • Vibe: Classic desert getaway with style
  • Pros: Best amenities, most to do outside festival
  • Cons: Longest commute, books earliest

🌴 La Quinta

  • Distance: 20-25 min to festival
  • Best for: Upscale resorts, quieter home base
  • Vibe: Polished and comfortable
  • Pros: Nice balance of proximity and quality
  • Cons: Limited dining outside resorts

🏨 Indian Wells

  • Distance: 25-30 min shuttle
  • Best for: Resort amenities, pools, golf
  • Vibe: Luxury desert escape
  • Pros: High-end properties, great pools
  • Cons: Pricier, longer commute than Indio

🎪 Indio

What You Need to Know

  • Comfortable walking shoes (you'll walk miles)
  • Portable charger (phone dies fast in heat)

  • Cash for tips and small vendors

⏰ Timing Tips

  • Arrive Day 1 early to learn the grounds
  • Set times release ~1 week before Weekend 1

  • Exit strategy: leave before final song or wait 30+ min

What Our Clients Say

"First time doing Coachella and Xenia made it effortless. They got us a hotel in La Quinta with shuttle access, helped coordinate our airport pickup, and gave us the desert survival tips we actually needed. Can't imagine doing it without them."
Sarah & Mark D.
Coachella 2025 Client
"We brought 8 friends from Seattle for Weekend Two. Xenia coordinated everything—shuttle-accessible hotels, wristbands, transportation from LAX. The desert logistics would have been a nightmare to figure out ourselves."
Kevin T.
Coachella 2024 Client
"Hotels near Palm Springs were sold out everywhere when we finally decided to go. Xenia found us a great spot in Indian Wells we never would have discovered. Saved our entire trip and the pool was incredible after the desert heat."
