Indulge in a luxurious desert escape at this magnificent home in the Yucca Valley. Whatever kind of group you're travelling with – whether you're planning a child-friendly family reunion or a get-together with friends – the jam-packed pad offers entertainment and relaxation in its scenic plot. Spend balmy mornings cooling off in the wrap-around pool, or lounging on the hammock and working on your tan. If you need a sun break, the home arcade is the ideal place to have some fun and challenge your fellow guests to a foosball or pop-a-shot tournament. We love the punchy orange mural painted on the garage door, creating a distinctively retro feel. The old-world aesthetic continues in the main house – as does the wall art. Kids will feel right at home in the twin bedroom, where an immersive Star Wars scene decorates the back wall. Elsewhere, Picasso posters and Mark Warren mirrors hang over mid-century furniture and ram skull motifs, resulting in a nostalgic desert aesthetic that will leave a lasting impression.

About Joshua Tree
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.
