Hotel and Transportation

Location

The 10^th National Indian Nations Conference: Justice for Victims of Crime will be held on the Agua Caliente reservation in Palm Springs California. The Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians has occupied the area for over a thousand years. The Agua Caliente Band is one of 10 Tribes in the greater Palm Springs area. There are 33 Tribes in the region. The center of Palm Springs is the "Se-Khi" (Boiling Water), hot mineral springs from which Palm Springs derives its name. The desert climate is warm and dry with average December daytime highs in the seventies and average nighttime lows in the mid-forties.

The conference will be held at the Wyndham Palm Springs Hotel with additional sleeping rooms available at the Agua Caliente Spa Hotel. Both hotels as well as the Agua Caliente Tribal Headquarters, are within a five minute drive from the Palm Springs International Airport and offer complimentary airport transportation.

We have arranged for overflow rooms at the Palm Springs Courtyard. The Palm Springs Courtyard has extended the rate of $89.00 per room. Please contact the Courtyard at 760-322-610 and ask for group code Tribal Law.
