With over two acres of land and desert views stretching out in every direction, this two-bedroom home is a dreamy hideaway in the hills. The interiors take their cue from the landscape around them, with earthy tones and natural fibres creating a welcoming yet stylish vibe. The open-plan setup makes it ideal for families or a small group of friends who want to press pause on their everyday stresses. If you're feeling adventurous, your hosts can introduce you to a local hiking guide, or if you'd rather stretch out your stresses, they also know an excellent yoga instructor who can lead a private class at the house. Round off the day with a sound bath or meditation session (yes, your hosts know the very best wellness gurus around), before grilling up an alfresco feast on the barbecue. Top up your drinks as you gather around the fire pit and do some stargazing, or take a quick drive into Joshua Tree town for cold beers at one of the dive bars.
