Sun Drift · Pool, Hot Tub, Sauna, Pizza Oven

Summary:

Jagged boulder mountains rise in front of the pool and raised hot tub at Sun Drift, in Monument Manor just outside the park's West Entrance, about 10 minutes away. Sweat in the private outdoor sauna, swim, then fire up the pizza oven at sunset and stretch out in the hammock circle for stargazing. This two-bedroom south Joshua Tree home of curved walls, concrete floors and warm wood is 8 minutes from downtown, with two king bedrooms and a music and game nook with a telescope.



The Space:

Sun Drift pairs contemporary desert architecture with warm, organic design: curved walls, sculptural lines, smooth concrete floors, custom curved cabinetry and warm wood. Sliding glass doors and oversized windows fill it with light and open onto the patio and pool. Outside are a pool and raised hot tub with mountain views, a wood-burning fire pit, a sauna, a BBQ and pizza oven, and a hammock circle down the path. With two king bedrooms, it suits couples and small groups.
