Beautiful property in a mystical place
Pros:

This is a stunning property. So well designed and in such a beautiful spot.

Cons:

A basic set of cutlery and small plates would be lovely. It’s a place you want to stay in and have a plate of cheese and biscuits or similar without having to drive to a restaurant.

Superb location, fantastic sky to star-gazing and unique accommodation.
Pros:

Liked the rustic nature of the room, and in particular being reasonable remote. We also satellite watched both nights as the sky was so dark the stars shone brightly.

Cons:

As there is no food/drink offered, access to a plate, bowl and knife/fork would have been helpful.

Exceptionnel !
Pros:

En arrivant on voit cette maison au dessus de la route principale et on se dit « ah dommage… » et puis 10min après on oublie tout.
C’est un havre de paix, vous êtes seuls au monde dans un cadre exceptionnel.
Les couleurs, la décoration, l’ambiance… Tout est fait avec goût et avec le souci du détail ; c’est beau.
Il n’y a pas d’hôtes, le Check-in se fait entièrement en ligne mais ce n’est pas dérangeant, vous avez encore plus la sensation d’être seul au monde.
Vous avez une pièce principale avec micro-ondes, couverts en libre service, sel/poivre, idéal pour dîner le soir.
Petit conseil : apportez une bouteille de vin et profitez du couché de soleil à couper le souffle :)

Would have been a peaceful place on a calm, clear night
Pros:

Beautiful view. Very unique. Complimentary sound bath was nice.

Cons:

We had a cold windy night so we couldn’t enjoy the outdoor tub, shower or star gazing bed. Also, the room is surrounded by a metal gate which made the wind noise even louder.

We will stay there again
Pros:

The facility is very welcoming and clean. We visited Joshua Tree National Park and the location was perfect plus fairly close to the town. The mini fridge and Keurig coffee machine was a nice touch. We also liked that there are many areas to sit to enjoy the beautiful views that the facility has to offer. At the beginning we thought we were going to have a difficult time no having a TV in the room but actually we ended up enjoying disconnecting from the world.

Cons:

If I am going to be picky, the comforter was a little heavy

Pros:

Everything. Nice view. Very quiet and private. We did not need to stay in the National Park until late to see the stars. Just saw stars from the outside patio, and it was great. The host responded to my call immediately when I needed something.

Cons:

Nothing

Perfect
Pros:

The property is gorgeous. Our room was cozy and had everything. Checking in by code was easy. Loved the chilled water. Bath salts were a nice touch. Outside was even better for star gazing and relaxation.

Cons:

I thought it was going to be more isolated.

Przyjemny hotel na skraju pustyni
Pros:

Przyjemny hotel, szczególnie dla osób chcących odwiedzić Joshua NP.
Wygodne łóżko.

Cons:

Nie jest położony na odludziu, w zasadzie jest tuż przy drodze.
W nocy jest łuna światła od okolicznych zabudowań.
