Cosmic is the word. Surrounded by vast expanses of desert, skies, and stars, this contemporary desert home is the dreamiest base for exploring the wonders of Joshua Tree National Park. The home's eclectic, retro, and vibrant design reflects the town’s cool vibe. Let the resident chef unwind in the sleek kitchen while you stretch out in the elegant boho lounge. Set the uber-cool inside dining table for fresh eggs and coffees, or enjoy breakfast in bed in the stylish space. Set just a few minutes’ drive from the shops and dining options of the eponymous town, the home lies just outside the famous park, where you can take on the Hidden Valley Nature Trail and visit mesmerising Skull Rock. After a day spent hiking, savour some downtime on a sun lounger in the tranquil backyard, before winding down with a soak in the alfresco hot tub. Dinner under the pergola adorned with twinkling fairy lights is a must, though the blanket of stars will really steal the show. While you’re relaxing, the kids will be having a whale of a time in their own personal play area, complete with climbing frame and teepee.
