This mid-century studio in the heart of Joshua Tree was designed with the view in mind and we can see why. One glance out the floor-to-ceiling windows and you'll be treated to spectacular, sprawling vistas of the Mojave Desert. It's the perfect backdrop to morning coffees and evening cocktails, especially when the sun goes down and the shooting stars fly across the sky. Inside, the open-concept layout invites you to socialise and relax in equal measure. Filled with custom-made wooden furniture and rustic touches, we'd describe the vibe here as Wild West chic. Play your favourite music on the Alexa speaker while you channel your inner Jamie Oliver in the kitchen – we're particularly fond of the concrete countertops. After a delicious dinner, gather around the wooden barrel table for a game night or sink into the squishy leather sofa and watch a movie. The location is excellent, too – just a fifteen-minute walk to downtown Joshua Tree and a ten-minute drive to the main entrance of Joshua Tree National Park. With hiking trails to suit all levels, eateries and art galleries aplenty, this is a perfect spot to switch off and bask in the stark beauty of the desert.

Home truths

    There are no curtains or blinds on the front sliding door to make the most of the views – the home is tucked away from the street and neighbours, so you'll still have plenty of privacy

    Two pets are welcome to join you for a fee of $150 per pet

    This is a studio so there's no separation between the living area, kitchen and bedroom

    Two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed – we don't think it will compromise on space, but as this is a studio, there won't be much privacy between guests
