Homes For Sale in Bermuda Dunes

Welcome to Bermuda Dunes, CA

Bermuda Dunes is one of the Coachella Valley's original golf communities — an unincorporated Riverside County enclave tucked between Palm Desert, La Quinta, and Indio, built around a course with genuine PGA Tour pedigree. Known for decades as the longtime host site of the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic (now The American Express), Bermuda Dunes offers residents a rare combination of historic golf prestige, mid-range Coachella Valley pricing, and a quiet, low-density community feel that's increasingly scarce in the valley's more developed western cities.

History

Bermuda Dunes was developed in 1962 by Ernie Dunlevie and Ray Ryan, though the course itself broke ground earlier, on February 14, 1958, when architect Billy Bell Jr. was tasked with designing a layout long enough to challenge touring professionals while keeping fairways wide enough for everyday golfers. Formerly known as Myoma, the community quickly built a national profile through its decades-long association with the Bob Hope Classic — Arnold Palmer claimed his first Classic win here in 1960 and his final PGA Tour victory in 1973 on the same course. Clark Gable was among the celebrities who kept a home in Bermuda Dunes during its early years, cementing the community's reputation as one of the desert's original golf-and-glamour addresses.

Location & Geography

Bermuda Dunes sits roughly 20 miles east of Palm Springs, positioned directly on Interstate 10 near the center of the Coachella Valley. Its location between Palm Desert, La Quinta, and Indio gives residents practical access to the valley's broader shopping, dining, and healthcare infrastructure, while the community's own Bermuda Dunes Airport serves private and general aviation. With 10 other golf clubs and golf course communities within a five-mile radius, Bermuda Dunes sits at the heart of one of the densest golf corridors in Southern California.

Events and Entertainment

Bermuda Dunes' own events calendar centers on its golf heritage, but residents are also just minutes from the Empire Polo Club, home to the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and the Stagecoach Country Music Festival each spring. The community's proximity to Indio and La Quinta means residents can easily access the Riverside County Fair and National Date Festival, Old Town La Quinta's seasonal events, and the broader valley's winter social season, while still returning home to a quieter, golf-centered neighborhood each evening.

Shopping

Bermuda Dunes itself remains primarily residential, with everyday shopping and dining concentrated a short drive away in Palm Desert and La Quinta. El Paseo's upscale boutiques, Westfield Palm Desert's mall anchors, and La Quinta's Old Town shopping district are all within easy reach, giving Bermuda Dunes residents full access to the valley's retail corridor without the commercial density of a shopping district built into their own neighborhood.

Parks and Recreation

Golf is Bermuda Dunes' defining recreational asset, anchored by the historic Billy Bell-designed Eisenhower Course at Bermuda Dunes Country Club, alongside nine additional golf clubs and communities within a five-mile radius. Beyond golf, residents have quick access to the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains for hiking, and the Living Desert Zoo and Gardens in nearby Palm Desert rounds out the area's family-oriented recreation options a short drive away.

Schools and Education

Bermuda Dunes is served primarily by the Desert Sands Unified School District, the same district serving neighboring Indio and La Quinta. College of the Desert, the valley's primary community college, is a short drive away in Palm Desert, providing residents practical access to vocational, transfer-track, and continuing education programs.

Commute and Accessibility

Interstate 10 runs directly through Bermuda Dunes, providing immediate highway access east to Indio and west toward Palm Springs, the Inland Empire, and Los Angeles. Highway 111 and Washington Street connect residents to La Quinta, Indian Wells, and Palm Desert's commercial corridors within minutes. Bermuda Dunes Airport, located within the community itself, serves private and general aviation, while Palm Springs International Airport is roughly 20 to 25 minutes northwest for commercial travel.

Real Estate Market Snapshot

Bermuda Dunes offers some of the Coachella Valley's best relative value for golf-course living. As of early-to-mid 2026, the community-wide median home price runs approximately $546,000 to $744,000 depending on the data source and specific reporting period, with price per square foot around $207 to $315. Within Bermuda Dunes Country Club specifically — the community's historic golf-front core — the median sale price has recently run closer to $725,000 to $757,500, up roughly 8% to 12% year-over-year, with single-family homes trading between about $390,000 and nearly $3 million and condos ranging from roughly $300,000 to $650,000h.

Homes have recently taken longer to sell than in past years — a median of 70 to 144 days depending on the specific month and data set — giving buyers more room to negotiate than during the valley's hotter pandemic-era cycles. Compared to neighboring La Quinta and Indian Wells, Bermuda Dunes consistently offers comparable lifestyle quality — golf course frontage, mountain views, gated and non-gated options — at a meaningfully lower price point, making it one of the valley's strongest value plays for buyers who want the country club lifestyle without the premium address.

Types of Homes Available

Bermuda Dunes Country Club Homes

The community's historic core, offering fairway and mountain-view single-family homes along the Billy Bell-designed Eisenhower Course, from modest mid-century ranch homes to fully remodeled and new custom builds. Architectural variety spans Spanish Revival to 2020s contemporary design, with no two homes looking quite alike.

Golf Course Condominiums

A meaningful share of Bermuda Dunes Country Club's inventory consists of condos overlooking the fairways, offering lower-maintenance ownership at price points generally well below the single-family market — an accessible entry point for buyers seeking the golf lifestyle without a full estate commitment.

Estate and Luxury Homes

At the top of the market, larger custom estates — some exceeding 4,000 to 6,000-plus square feet with resort-style pools and expansive golf or mountain views — trade well above $1 million, representing Bermuda Dunes' most significant properties.

Surrounding Gated Communities

Beyond the original country club, Bermuda Dunes encompasses a range of additional gated and non-gated residential developments offering varying price points, amenities, and architectural styles throughout its unincorporated footprint.

Airport-Adjacent Properties

Properties near Bermuda Dunes Airport appeal to aviation enthusiasts and buyers seeking proximity to private and general aviation services, a distinctive amenity not found in most Coachella Valley communities.
