Good
Liked: Our host Ernest was most friendly and helpful. He was also very interesting to talk to. His cat Goldilocks was a real character, a true lover.
Disliked: Per the website, we thought we were booking a B&B in Indio, CA to attend the PNB Paribas Tennis Open in Indian Wells. Not so. Turtle Back is actually located in Indio HILLS, which is miles from Indio.It took us nearly a half-hour to get from theB&B to Indio.

Very good
Liked: Perfect location in the hills away from distractions. Beautiful setting with outdoor space, hot tub and artistic touches throughout.Ernest was so helpful in giving us info about the area and places to go. His breakfasts were great and varied from day to day. He was a great host.
Disliked: Shared shower. The people in the next room created a minor floor in our bathroom.

We will go back even...
Liked: The owner/host was beyond excellent. Ernest is a delightful man with wonderful stories to share about his beautiful property and its history. He made my husband and I a delicous breakfast in the morning that we enjoyed in the kitchen with him as he cooked. The 3 bedroom B & B is private and wonderfully peaceful and set off the beaten path just enough. Ernest gave us great directions to drive to the little local town where we went to a very authentic Mexican restuarant and then on the way back we stopped at the OASIS (ask Ernest about it) which is worth checking out to walk off that great Mexican food! Ernest is a dream host. We will definitely go back. Its worth mentioning that there is a 'clothing optional' policy at the property, so if other guests chose to swim or soak in the hot tub naked, just know that is a possibility. The night we were there we were the only guests so it never came up.
Disliked: Nothing comes to mind. I forgot to get a picture with Ernest which makes me a little sad......

A very enjoyable stay. Will...
Liked: Quiet and secluded. Ernest was the ultimate host. He made sure we were well taken care of. His home made breakfast was delicious! The mineral water hot tub was great!
Disliked: The shared shower between adjacent rooms was a bit strange, but we had no neighbors the night we stayed.
