Roasting chestnuts over an open fire and dining with Santa is just some of the ways you can celebrate the holidays at La Quinta Resort & Club in Palm Springs.
La Quinta’s fourth annual Capra-esque celebration introduces a new “Chestnuts & Capra” package, which includes special guest room accommodations, dinner for two at the acclaimed Morgan’s in the Desert, breakfast for two at TWENTY6, and a pre-dinner perk of roasted chestnuts and specialty cocktails, like the George Bailey, Mary Bailey and Poinsettia.
La Quinta Resort & Club boasts an old Hollywood glamour with championship golf and tennis facilities, 41 swimming pools, and award-winning dining, among other amenities.
Other holiday events at La Quinta include weekly cooking classes, fudge-making demonstrations, roasting chestnuts on an open fire, breakfast with Santa and a silent screening of the movie “It’s a Wonderful Life” that was written by Frank Capra at the La Quinta Resort.
