A freeform pool that winds between Joshua trees – lit for evening swims and paired with a hot tub – is the centrepiece of this desert house just five minutes from downtown Yucca Valley. Inside, curved sofas face floor-to-ceiling glass doors that slide open to dissolve the boundary between the desert landscape and the living space. Each bedroom opens directly to the pool, while a separate casita offers a quieter retreat for guests who want their own corner of the grounds.

Home truths
The accommodation here is spread across the main house, which has two bedrooms, and a separate one-bedroom casita, offering extra flexibility and privacy for your group.
You'll need a car to make the most of your stay here. Downtown Yucca Valley is a five-minute drive, Pioneertown is ten minutes away, and the Joshua Tree National Park entrance is about twenty-three minutes. There's no on-street parking available, so all vehicles must fit in the garage or driveway – and the home can accommodate a maximum of four cars.

Local guide
About Yucca Valley
Drive a couple of hours east of Los Angeles, and you’re in a different world. Nowhere is that more apparent than Joshua Tree with its many artist residences, rugged rock formations, and stark desert landscapes. Named after the twisted, bristled Joshua Tree, a stay in this little Mojave desert community is synonymous with art exhibitions, beautiful night skies, hikes, delicious food, and plenty of hours lounging about in aesthetically pleasing surroundings.
