About this house rental
Welcome to The Beachhouse in the Desert, a one-of-a-kind retreat where sun-washed sand meets the wild beauty of the Mojave.
Set against an endless horizon of desert sky, this extraordinary property invites you to experience something truly unexpected: a private beach in the middle of the desert. Wake to golden morning light spilling across the sand, spend the afternoon playing volleyball beneath swaying palms, and end the evening soaking in the hot tub beneath a sky filled with stars.
Designed for connection, celebration, and unforgettable desert escapes, The Beachhouse blends playful coastal energy with the quiet magic of Joshua Tree’s landscape.
Perfect for family gatherings, group getaways, retreats, and milestone celebrations, this is a place where memories unfold effortlessly.
The Space:
There is simply nothing else like this in the desert. The Beachhouse is an exclusive, resort-style retreat unlike anything else in the region — a one-of-a-kind sanctuary where a private sand beach meets the wild, dramatic beauty of the Mojave. This is not a desert house with a pool. This is a desert estate built around an experience you won’t find anywhere else.
This is the desert, reimagined.
The Estate
One extraordinary property. One unforgettable setting. The Beachhouse was designed for groups who want more than a place to sleep — it’s a destination unto itself, with warm, welcoming interiors and outdoor spaces that rival any private resort in the region.
Inside, large windows flood the home with natural light and frame sweeping desert views. Comfortable seating areas, an open layout, and thoughtfully curated details make the space ideal for gathering, relaxing, and reconnecting — whether you’re cooking together, lingering over dinner, or simply unwinding after a day at Joshua Tree.

Kitchens & Dining
A fully equipped kitchen makes gathering around food effortless, whether it’s a casual breakfast before heading to Joshua Tree or a long group dinner as the sun sets over the desert.
The kitchen includes:
∙ Refrigerator & freezer
∙ Stove, oven & microwave
∙ Full cookware & utensils
∙ Coffee & espresso makers
Indoor and outdoor dining areas give groups the flexibility to eat wherever the moment calls for it.
Bathrooms
Bathrooms are stocked with everything you need — fresh towels, shampoo, body products, and hair dryers. Every comfort is accounted for.
Outdoor Amenities | The Heart of the Experience
This is where the Beachhouse earns its name. There is no other property in the region offering this combination of resort-grade outdoor amenities on a single private estate:
∙ 🏖 Signature private sand beach & volleyball court
∙ 🏊 Swimming pool
∙ ♨️ Hot tub / spa
∙ 🔥 Firepit gathering area
∙ ♨️ 4-Person Sauna
∙ 🍽 Outdoor dining areas
∙ 🌌 Multiple lounge areas for relaxing and stargazing
Serve a volleyball match beneath the desert sun. Swim. Soak in the spa as the stars appear. Gather around the firepit as the desert air cools. From sunrise to long after dark, the outdoor spaces are designed to be lived in.
Stargazing
Located in one of Southern California’s premier dark-sky regions, the Beachhouse offers a night sky that has to be seen to be believed. Step outside after dark — the Milky Way doesn’t disappoint.
