The Westin Rancho Mirage Golf Resort & Spa

Rancho Mirage, California

Set on 360 acres in the residential community of Rancho Mirage, the Westin Mission Hills Golf Resort and Spa has 512 rooms and suites in more than a dozen clusters to either side of the main Spanish-Moorish hotel and on or near the Pete Dye golf course. The spacious lobby (with extensive meeting space to either side) flows through to a sprawling Las Brisas swimming pool that features a 60-foot waterslide. There are two smaller pools to the right and left amid the lodging clusters. There are four lighted tennis courts supplemented by 12 pickleball courts. These are located in one corner of the property, roughly 100 yards from the lobby and directly adjacent to the Spa (guests not wanting to walk can catch a shuttle from the bell stand at the hotel). One is a sunken stadium with grassy terraces to either side. Like the resort itself, the courts are landscaped with oleander, hibiscus, and sentinels of palm trees.
