Renaissance Esmeralda makes for a beautiful stay at any time of the year, providing guests with spacious and stylish rooms, delicious food, a beach resort-style pool and much more. While there’s nothing wrong with living your best vacation life simply and without plans, there are a number of bookable experiences on the resort’s summer calendar that are perfect for all ages if you’re one to fill up the schedule. For foodies, we recommend the impressive seven-course sushi and sake pairing or sharing a fireside wine and charcuterie board pairing made with sustainably sourced ingredients. Sunchasers and fitness buffs will want to sign up for an outdoor yoga class led by a Yoga Central instructor, and adventurers will absolutely love taking the famous Red Jeep Tour around the area!

For those looking for amped-up nightlife or a fun way to escape the outdoor heat, we recommend exploring the Desert Glow Entertainment Zone, Renaissance Esmeralda’s exciting gaming and lounge experience that offers numerous ways to play and elevate your stay. The Desert Glow Entertainment Zone has something to do for all ages, ranging from classic arcade games and duckpin bowling to high-tech, action-packed virtual reality games. We think it’s fun to roam around while munching on light bites and sipping on a cocktail from the bar, but if you want something more group-oriented, we suggest reserving an escape room experience. Our tips for escape rooms? Remember that not all clues are what they seem, and your group’s different styles of thinking are a major strength!

 

Sip and Savor at Cava Happy Hour

There’s no doubt that Cava Restaurant should absolutely be on your to-dine list when you visit Renaissance Esmeralda in Indian Wells this summer. With its beautiful views of the Santa Rosa Mountains, delicious American fare and equally delicious cocktails, Cava is serving up a fun and exciting experience with every dish—especially during happy hour. Happening from 4:30-6 p.m. every day, the happy hour menu boasts craveable bites and tons of local flavors. Don’t miss discounts on wine by the glass, beer, well drinks and house cocktails while indulging in tasty appetizers like the spinach and artichoke dip or the bacon-wrapped dates. The real star of the happy hour menu, however, is probably the three-course experience for $29–complete with a soup or salad course, a choice of mouthwatering entree and a sweet jar for dessert.

Local Insight: Cava’s happy hour is one of Indian Wells’ very best, so we highly recommend making reservations by calling 760.836.1276 to secure a spot!
