A smelly room and rude management. When I checked in. It smelled awful; admittedly, I should have told them about that right away, but I was overly optimistic that perhaps the smell would dissipate, plus I had spent the day hiking in Joshua Tree, and was at the property for a concert, so I did not have the time or energy to deal with it. I did not spend any time in the room until I went to sleep. At 1:30 am, the stench awoke me and I was unable to fall back asleep. I then spent 90 minutes on the phone and waiting for return calls from the management company. The representative told me falsely that they'd help, but nobody ever called me back. I had to pay for a room elsewhere. The management did not believe my story, basically saying that I lied. They claimed that their housekeeper said it smelled fine before I checked in and that they had somebody smell the room afterwards and it smelled fine then too. I have absolutely no motivation to lie. It's obvious that I am telling the truth--I stayed at a Hilton hotel ten minutes down the road, checking in there at 3 am. They offered to refund me 15%, and did so, but that is not satisfactory. I shouldn't have to pay for 2 rooms one night. They will not treat you well. Stay elsewhere.

We loved staying here! The room was wonderful and we got takeout from the cafe and ate on our patio overlooking a beautiful view with Joshua trees. The pool and hot tub were lovely and no one else was there. There are trails to walk among the Joshua trees and an ideal overlook. It’s expensive but we splurged to stay for a concert there. The amphitheater is a gorgeous place for a show. Highly recommend and hope to go back if there are special rates sometime!

Beautiful Bungalow!

Great views from my bungalow! Bed was comfy and the little knick-knacks around the room made for a warm and inviting stay. Just a quick drive from Joshua Tree National Park. Would definitely book again.
