La Quinta real estate is always in demand—and for a variety of reasons. With its rich history, vibrant culture, impeccable golf courses and beautiful climate, it’s no wonder it’s called the “Gem of the Desert.”
The renowned Robb Report named La Quinta the “Best Place to Live for Golf” due to its array of remarkable golf courses, including several PGA courses, such as the PGA West Greg Norman Course, the PGA west Jack Nicklaus Tournament and the PGA West Stadium Course. Other notable courses include The Golf Club at La Quinta, the La Quinta Resort Dunes Course and the SilverRock Golf Club, designed by Arnold Palmer and ranked as “The Best Tour Course You Can Play” by Golfweek in 2009.
In addition to the many golf courses and access to outdoor activities, another reason many choose to buy La Quinta real estate is the city’s rich culture. Events such as the La Quinta Arts Festival and all the live theatre performances at the La Quinta Playhouse, coupled with beautiful public art pieces, offers much to do and see for the art lover. The charming Old Town La Quinta features stellar shopping and dining options, as well as the best in spa and salon services.
Stunning views of the Little San Bernardino, Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains, and average winter temperatures in the mid 70’s, make it difficult to leave this desert respite. Average rainfall is less than five inches per year, and temperatures rarely drop below freezing, making for a mild climate. Even though the summer temperatures may soar, it’s a dry heat that many find very enjoyable. It makes perfect sense that visitors flock to the entire region for its desirable, moderate weather.
