ABOUT OFLAND
About the proposed resort
Ofland Hospitality represents the kind of glossy, profit-driven development that erodes the character of rural and natural communities under the guise of “eco-luxury.” It commodifies quiet, open landscapes and turns them into playgrounds for affluent tourists.
REdirected resources
These developments claim to “celebrate nature,” but in reality, they privatize it—transforming public experience into exclusive, curated amenities for the wealthy. Local water, land, and resources are redirected to support upscale spas and boutique cabins, not the people who actually live here.
Rooted in Extraction
Ofland may tout sustainability for their resort in Twentynine Palms, but their model is rooted in extraction—of culture, land, and identity. Instead of protecting what makes a place unique, they flatten it into a brand. True stewardship comes from communities, not corporations selling curated wilderness at $600 a night. We don’t need more resorts; we need real protections for our environment and our people.
PROTECT OUR QUIET INDIAN COVE NEIGHBORHOOD FROM AN INVASIVE 100-BUILDING LUXURY RESORT
TALKING POINTS
Residential zoning is for homes, not resorts.
The parcel is zoned for 60 homes – OfLand is proposing 100 cabins and additional buildings.
The Ofland parcel will lead to loss of native habitat in an ecologically sensitive wildlife corridor.
Ofland predicts an increase of 894 vehicle trips per day in our INDIAN COVE neighborhood.
With outdoor movies, music and special events, the resort will disrupt our natural quiet and night skies.
