Stylish, Peaceful, and Perfectly Located We loved our romantic stay at The Bungalows by Homestead Modern. The décor was chic and modern with a cool desert vibe, and everything was spotless. We enjoyed cooking in the well-equipped kitchen and relaxing outdoors by the fire pit and under the stars. The location was ideal—close to Joshua Tree National Park and both downtown Joshua Tree and Yucca Valley. Staff were super responsive via text. Highly recommend for a stylish and peaceful desert getaway!

We loved our stay! So unique and beautiful. Super clean and furniture was 60's modern style. But the best part were the floor to ceiling windows and outdoor areas. We stayed in 1C and had a BEAUTIFUL view of the desert. The retreat center was fun to explore and the pool was very refreshing. We only stayed for one night, but we will be back for a longer stay.

Great stay. I will definitely be back. I loved the architecture and the setting. The Mentalphysics backstory added an interesting vibe. The only issue I have to report is that I could only get one of the burners on the stove to light. This was in Bungalow K. When lit, the flame was small and it took a long time for the water to boil. But everything else was excellent.
