The Chateau At Lake La Quinta - A boutique lakeside resort with mountain views, farm-to-table dining, and private patios

Located in the heart of La Quinta, this 24-room boutique La Quinta hotel overlooks serene Lake La Quinta with panoramic views of the Santa Rosa Mountains. The Chateau At Lake La Quinta features accommodations ranging from 300 to 500 square feet, including two lakefront bungalows with semi-private entrances. Each room offers a private or semi-private balcony or patio with water views, air conditioning, and premium bedding. The property's Mélange restaurant serves California farm-sourced ingredients from 7 AM to 8:30 PM, Wednesday through Sunday, with a nine-seat lakeside bar offering handcrafted cocktails. Rolling lawns and lush gardens surround the property, while lakeside fire pits provide outdoor gathering spaces. The Chateau sits 18.5 miles from Palm Springs, with proximity to St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church (2 miles) and Old Town La Quinta (2 miles). Several dining options are within 0.5 miles, including Cork & Fork and Cooking With Class.

“In La Quinta, this feels like a genuine discovery: a boutique hotel intentionally designed around an intimate lake setting. The property distinguishes itself with exclusive lakeside bungalows, offering immediate water access, and the personalized service elevates the experience beyond the standard resort stay. I think the gourmet dining, featuring locally sourced ingredients, and curated outdoor spaces with fire pits also make it ideal for romantic getaways.”
