About

A refined desert escape where design and landscape meet. This mid-century home blends modern architecture with natural beauty - offering a private pool, spa, and sweeping desert views. Surrounded by 2.5 acres of open land, it’s a peaceful retreat for design lovers seeking quiet luxury, connection, and wide-open skies.

Good to know

Set on 2.5 private acres, this home was redesigned by top landscape and interior architects to balance form, function, and calm. Every detail invites you to slow down and reconnect with the desert. Casa Bella was created by longtime friends and collaborators Chad and Andrew, who share a deep passion for design, architecture, and the desert landscape. Chad’s background in landscape architecture guided the transformation of the grounds with drought-tolerant, desert-sourced plants. Interior architect Mervé Krenzke brought her signature desert modern style to the home’s interiors - pairing clean lines, warm textures, and an effortless sense of place. Highlights: - Pool and spa with mountain and desert views. - Fire pit and covered outdoor dining area. - Bocce court, hammocks, and swing chairs. - Three queen bedrooms (6 guests max). - Master suite with soaking tub and separate shower. - Smart TVs in each room and Sonos sound system. - Fully equipped kitchen and indoor/outdoor dining. - EV charger and Starlink Wi-Fi. - Pet-friendly and fully fenced yard. Simple, architectural, and serene - made for sunrise swims, golden-hour dinners, and stargazing under endless skies.

Other Details to Note

Pool Heat: Spa heat is included in your reservation but if you'd like to have the pool heated please notify us in advance of your arrival as there will be a supplemental charge of $195 per night Oct-May and $150 per night June-Sept for this service due to high fuel costs in this area. Roads: The roads are all paved until the last short section to the house, which is dirt/sand but totally accessible to all types of cars. But it will be important to follow our directions and not to pass the house, as the road beyond the house is very sandy and you will get stuck. Pet Friendly: We're pet friendly! Two well-behaved pups allowed. There is a $95 pet fee, paid at time of booking. No pups on the furniture and no pups left alone in the house or in the yard and please dispose of any pet waste. Check in/Check out: Check in time is 4 pm and check out time is 11 am. Please review our cancellation policy closely. If you’re worried about the possibility that you may need to cancel after the refund period is closed we highly recommend adding travel insurance to your booking.

We had a wonderful stay at this quiet home near Joshua Tree. The space was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed, with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The peaceful setting was perfect for unplugging—beautiful desert views, total privacy, and relaxing silence. One of the highlights was stargazing from the pool and hot tub at night. Lying back and watching the stars was an experience that made the stay feel special. The home felt like a true retreat after exploring the park, and the attention to detail made it extra special. Check‑in was easy, communication was clear, and everything worked exactly as described. If you’re looking for a serene, well‑maintained place to unwind, this is it. We’d happily stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

The house was phenomenal! It was great getting away from the city and just relaxing environment. The house was absolutely beautiful! Everything was provided! The aesthetics of the house were beautiful! The pool and spa were super clean! Outside furniture was amazing! Kids and wifey loved it! I miss it already! Lol

Wish we could have stayed longer! Stunning house, so peaceful and perfect for a family getaway. Only recommendation would be to add bedside table lamps for night time reading (but totally minor when you can just spend the evening stargazing and making s’mores in the most stunning backyard!). Jenn was extremely quick to respond to messages and made us all feel so comfortable and well looked after. Thank you for an incredible stay, we can’t wait to return on our next JT getaway!

Amazing stay! The jacuzzi at night under the stars was exactly what I was looking for. It's easy to get to this house and had very clear instructions for check in. I recommend Jenn's place for sure!

Beautiful home to get some privacy and enjoy nature. Spacious interior and thoughtful details. Kitchen had required tools/spices and I never felt like it was lacking anything. Beds were comfy, bedrooms were private, plenty of bathrooms. Cleanliness never an issue. Sunrise and sunset: unmatched and spectacular. Pool is gorgeous and hot tub heating included in pricing - warm enough for us even in early March. Host was incredibly responsive and was even able to let us check in early without incurring extra fees. Home audio system was easy and great to use. Location is further from town but that’s what makes it so private. The short drive time isn’t really an issue. It is a desert so it’s inevitable there will be some small bugs but they’re harmless! Does not impact the stay. Cannot wait to return!
