-Endless Outdoor Amenities-
Outside, Desert Willow unfolds into a luxurious desert playground designed for both fun and deep relaxation, with endless amenities abounding. Start your day with grounding movement on the yoga deck framed by a hand-painted mural, then awaken your body with an invigorating cold plunge or a refreshing rinse in the cold outdoor shower. Melt into the cedar sauna or hot tub, letting the desert stillness create a spa-like calm that invites you to slow down and be present.
For moments of joyful connection, gather for a match on the pickleball court, play a game or share a meal or game around the pool table/dining table combo, or lounge together in the in-ground pool with baja shelf. As the sun sets, gather to watch a film on the outdoor movie theater under the stars from either the outdoor sectional area, complete with a propane fire pit, or on the neighboring pool loungers in the pool's Baja shelf. As night falls, conversations flow easily around the propane fire pit, surrounded by sweeping, panoramic desert views and under a blanket of Joshua Tree's famous starry skies. Every element of Desert Willow is intentionally designed to nurture rejuvenation, rest, connection and meaningful moments with the people you love.
