About this hotel
Summary:
**ESCAPE TO THE YUCCA: DESERT HOT SPRINGS' MOST VERSATILE LUXURY RETREAT**
Imagine hosting your entire extended family or friend group in one stunning, private sanctuary—no cramped quarters, no awkward shared spaces, just 8 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms, and room to breathe. The Yucca is a rare find: a boutique property designed so every guest feels welcomed and comfortable, whether you're gathering 25 people for a milestone celebration or bringing your closest friends for a desert getaway.
The Space:
**THE SPACE: BOHEMIAN LUXURY MEETS PRACTICAL COMFORT**
The heart of The Yucca is its expansive courtyard, anchored by a shimmering saltwater pool complete with a tanning ledge and sun loungers, plus a relaxing hot tub (heating complimentary). Lounge chairs and fringed umbrellas create the perfect retreat for afternoon lounging while others explore the property.
The property is thoughtfully divided into two distinct areas:
**The Private House** features a full-sized, fully equipped kitchen and spacious living area, plus three elegant bedrooms. The primary suite is your showstopper—a lavish ensuite bathroom paired with a private balcony overlooking the tranquil courtyard, perfect for quiet mornings or evening reflection.
**Five Guest Suites** are each designed as private sanctuaries. You'll find plush bedding, intricate tapestries, and earthy tones throughout.
**KITCHEN & DINING: COOK FOR A CROWD (OR LET PROFESSIONALS HELP)**
The main house has a fully equipped kitchen ideal for daily meal prep, while the Community Room features a second, state-of-the-art kitchen—perfect for delegating cooking duties, hosting a private chef, or simply having two zones so multiple cooks don't collide.
The Dragonfly Suite is equipped with a kitchenette and a laundry room located between bedroom 3 & 4.
Dining is designed for connection: a spacious covered outdoor living area comfortably seats 10 for meals, and a large outdoor BBQ grill sits ready for your next gathering. Keurig and drip coffee makers are both provided, though you'll want to bring your own coffee beans.
**AMENITIES BUILT FOR GROUP HARMONY**
Beyond the pools and common areas, you'll find:
- Fully equipped fitness room (no excuses to skip your morning workout)
- Fire pit for evening gatherings
- Free parking on premises
- Air conditioning, heating, and WiFi throughout
- Bed linens, extra pillows, and blankets provided
- Washer and dryer (plus some suites have their own)
- TV, indoor fireplace, and all the cooking basics (dishes, silverware, dishwasher, oven, stove, refrigerator, freezer, microwave)
- Dedicated workspace if anyone needs to log in during the stay
- Private entrance and single-level home layout for easy navigation
**BEDROOMS & BATHROOMS**
8 bedrooms across the property ensure every guest has their own sleeping space. With 8 bathrooms, morning routines flow smoothly—no bottlenecks, no tension. This layout is what separates The Yucca from cramped vacation rentals: it's designed so groups actually enjoy spending time together.
**WHY GUESTS CHOOSE THE YUCCA**
This property operates independently, meaning you get complete privacy and a seamless self check-in process. You're not dealing with staff interruptions or a bustling shared environment—it's entirely yours. If you want additional services (mid-stay cleaning, daily housekeeping, dishwashing and kitchen cleanup, or chef services for special events), those are available for a fee and can be arranged with 24 hours' notice.
Pool heating is available for $99/night (2-night minimum) if you're visiting during cooler months. Pets are welcome for a $75 fee per pet. We can also assist with event planning and catering if you're celebrating something special.

8 / 10Excellent·Apr 2026
We had our small micro-wedding here and the property itself was great. Pool and hot tub were very nice and each room was spacious and clean. Outdoor spaces were beautiful!The setup is very unique; a hotel with 5 rooms and a main house with 3 additional rooms.This place has its quirks, rooms 12 and 34 are conjoined by small hallways that do not lock on the room side. Because of this, whoever is staying in room 1 could theoretically just walk into room 2. Rooms 12 and rooms 34 each have a differing sets of keypad locks (didn’t work) room 3 4 also did not lock from the outside so anybody could walk into the rooms if not locked from the inside. While room 5 only opened with a key.Two of the 3 rooms in the main house also did not have locks on the doors. Big on the honor system here.The only real negative was check in/communication. Upon arriving, we got the room codes and nearly every Code was incorrect, so there were rooms we could not get in. After contacting the host through chat, they provided backup codes, which opened rooms 12. (34 never locked so they were always open)Then the Vrbo app had gone down for about an hour or two so we did not have access to the correct codes and upon calling the host, we were passed around to too many service reps (had no answers) instead of a singular property manager who could answer our questions. Would be helpful to have single point of contact. Gym gear was broken too.After that trouble though, it was smooth sailing!
10 / 10Outstanding·Sep 2025
Very Spacious place and great AC system.
10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2024
Great property and staff. Please note that the first key has the keys to the deadbolts. First keypad had issues, but you can use the manual keys. Second deadbolt wouldnt open, so we went in through the first room adjoing area. You should be fine after that. that
6 / 10Average·Mar 2026
Overall, we had a really good time. The rooms were spacious and it was great to have king sized beds and ensuites in 7 of the rooms. There was lots of room to prep food in the kitchen and to hang out outside. The property has been renovated but it still needs some work. One of the suite had a broken lock, a few of the high top patio chairs are broken, the patio cushions are stained and the BBQs don’t work very well. The pictures of the gym look nice but many of the weights are missing. Inside the common area is nice but seating is very limited.
