Tommy Bahama is partnering with Lowe, a national commercial and hospitality real estate investor, operator and developer of world-class destination hotel and resort properties, to execute and present Tommy Bahama Miramonte Resort & Spa, the first Tommy Bahama Resort, to debut in late 2023.

The resort, set to open in Indian Wells, will offer 215 custom appointed rooms and 35,000 square feet of meeting space—20,000 square feet indoor, 15,000 outdoor. Tommy Bahama Miramonte Resort & Spa will also feature three resort-style pools and signature treatments at the 12,000-square-foot spa.

Montage Hotels & Resorts’ flagship property, Montage Laguna Beach, debuted a full renovation of its meeting spaces in January to celebrate the property’s 20th anniversary. The renovation includes refreshing 14,500-plus square feet of indoor meeting spaces with new flooring, color palates, furnishings, lighting, catering and cooking accessories and more.

The beachfront hotel is perched on a coastal bluff above the Pacific and spans 30 acres. Guests at the hotel have access to two outdoor pool decks, a 20,000-square-foot spa and three signature restaurants.
