Our stay at La Cave was the highlight of our Joshua Tree trip. The pool and cave area felt surreal in the best way, with cool stone, quiet water and a calm echo that made the space feel private and tucked away. We swam at dusk as the sky turned purple, and it felt more like a private spa carved into the desert than a typical airbnb. The home was spotless, the kitchen had what we needed, and the beds were very comfortable. Check in was simple, parking was easy, and the host replied quickly with helpful tips while giving us plenty of space. The photos are accurate, but the pool cave is even better in person. Close to the park yet peaceful enough to unwind, we ended up spending more time at the house than we planned. We left rested and grateful. We would happily come back!

We had a mixed experience here. Friendly hosts and a quick Roku replacement for a TV that wasn't working were appreciated. That said, our stay started on a frustrating note with apparently automated messages about a pet fee we had already paid.

The outdoor environment - a big reason why we booked - didn’t match the photos: missing chaise cushions, a grill & firepit past their prime, and the cowboy tub now sits on the deck, leaving little space for loungers. The stargazing hut is a very cool idea but faced city glow during our visit, so star views were limited. Indoors, some furniture felt updated, but the dining chairs feel like they're about to break.

Most concerning, on our second night, the keypad failed to unlock even with repeated entries of the correct code; we eventually got in by pulling HARD on the door while entering the code. Beautiful setting, though, and we loved hot-tub stargazing; e-bikes and the telescope are great amenities. Still, wouldn't stay again or recommend.

Beautiful, clean, and luxurious property! Super kind and flexible hosts! 10/10 highly recommend this place to anyone traveling to Joshua Tree!

The house has everything you need and is so peaceful. Cherish & Ramon provided helpful and friendly communication. We had a great stay!
