The good - what a wonderful place with amazing views. Very comfortable. Lovely place to relax. A few suggestions … if dogs were there previously please vacuum more. There were dog hairs everywhere. The knives in the kitchen are blunt. We could not figure out the heating at all. Please put small plates in the kitchen too

Fun retro bungalow. Excellent accommodations, comfy bed, the shower was perfect and the floor to ceiling wrap arouns windows were chefs kiss. Lots of outdoor spaces to relax. Thr only downside was initially finding it. But once we figured it out it was smooth sailing. We were looking forward to using the fire pit but it was broken. Regardless it was the perfect 2 day escape for my hubby and i to celebrate our anniversary ❤️ wouls stay here again!

Beautiful facility, terrible service. Staff inconsiderate (Ashley Galvan and Elsa). We have stayed at numerous top notch hotels through the world and never received worse service than from here. Sad because it’s a beautiful location, but the staff ruined our trip.

This was a magical accommodation in the middle of the dessert. The bungalows themselves were visually appealing as well as very clean and comfortable. The large windows and patio was perfect for taking in the magic of the dessert. Very peaceful. Will definitely be back.

The pictures at Hotels.com perfectly matched the hotel property. The landscape around the bungalows is beautiful and the views of the sunrise and sunsets were spectacular. At night, it is so quiet and it made for an amazing place to stay. The bungalow was clean, the mid-century design and comfortable furnishings made our two night stay amazing.

The location was spectacular overlooking the desert with the mountains in the background. The room was good, the bed was comfortable and the kitchenette area worked well. We could sit at the table in the room or on the back patio with a spectacular view. We didn't realize that the Bungalows was a part of a retreat area, but being in the middle of the summer, the other facilities were not in use, such as the cafe. Many of the buildings were designed by Lloyd Wright and all of the fell into the midcentury modern mode.

Friend and I stayed here one night in August to go to a nearby stargazing tour in Joshua Tree. The location was perfect; a short drive to where we needed to be. Room wise, this place was great! Clean, comfy, and modern. The beds and pillows were super comfy and loved the floor to ceiling windows to look out. The bungalows are in a place away from the rest of the retreat but easy to find if you follow the signs. At night there are lights to drive around the property. It's a short 5 min. walk to the pool area, which was refreshing given how hot it gets. However there are no umbrellas and very little shade. We only got to use the pool for an hour since check in was 3 pm and we needed to go to dinner at 6. No TV in the room which was fine; a/c worked great and was cooling. Shower and bathroom facilities were also nice and having a kitchenette was good but we didn't need. Overall comfy and relaxing stay for one night. They email/text you the code to get into the property two hours before check in. We didn't download or need to use the app they recommend to check in. Bungalow came with a parking spot. Would definitely stay again if in the area!
