Description Quartz & Sun: Yucca Valley

Inspired by a Moroccan riad, this home pairs North African design details with desert panoramas. With a sleek heated pool and boho interiors, it’s no surprise it once featured in Vogue. Handmade tiles and vintage textiles make the modern rooms more characterful, while the picture windows offer mountain vistas from every angle. Spend your days discovering the desert (there are two-and-a-half acres to explore here) or drive to nearby Joshua Tree National Park for scenic hikes and spectacular views. Then end your day with a barbecue and starlit drinks around the firepit – ready to do it all again tomorrow.

Home truths:
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
*There's a security camera mounted at the entrance to this home to monitor the parking area.
*Due to this home's remote location, you might find that the phone signal is patchy from time to time.
*A car is essential here – a four-wheel drive car isn't required, however the roads will often have ruts, especially after rain. Free parking is available in the carport and on the driveway.
