The house was a bit cramped for a family of five but we didn't book this place to be inside. It's an older house so don't expect modern day luxuries but the AC blows cold, the water pressure is great, the kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to cook meals and there are plenty of books to read if you're into that. Also, there's a great coffee spot (Mas o menos) right down the street which was a plus. Dale is accommodating and will give you a tour of the site during your check in. I know this isn't for everyone so just keep that in mind. The real star of the show is the back side of the property. There's a stand alone jacuzzi which is perfect for relaxing and staring at the sky. The pool is amazing and fenced in and backs up to the sprawling boulder area. My kids loved climbing the boulders and each day they would explore higher and higher. The high cave was their favorite spot. It was great to have that option for the days we didn't feel like making the trek into JTNP. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it. ##### Jun L.

The layout outside with the pool and hot tub was great. My wife and I had a most relaxing time. The house is between the west and north entrance to Joshua Tree National Park. It takes about 20 minutes to get to the north entrance, which is less busy than the west entrance. We saw lots of lizards and gila monsters on the property. There is a nice hike on the property as well. We were lucky enough to see a bobcat on one of the last days we were there! That was very exciting, as they are very skittish. The only complaint I would have(very minor), is the kitchen is a little small. There is plenty of seating to eat inside or out. We ate outside most of the time, which was pleasant. I highly recommend staying here! Dale kept in contact, and made sure everything was satisfactory. Thank you Dale! We will be back in the near future! ##### Tony Stayed 8 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Schaffen B.

I wished we could have stayed longer than 1 full day because we didn’t even get to lounging poolside. We did enjoy exploring the caves, the wonderful hot tub under the stars, and even meeting the resident roadrunner who greeted us at breakfast. Dale is a spry young man who has lived a full life and is full of stories! He’s built something amazing here. ##### Schaffen B. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah M.

The rocks behind the house are a wonderful playground. Dale has done a great job of creating outdoor spaces for relaxing and socializing. The pool area is one of the most beautiful I have seen. ##### Sarah M. Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ralph C. Jun 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy What a remarkable place and location. Our group came for reconnecting with each other, ourselves, and the environment… to meditate, enjoy the rocks and the peacefulness. We found the home to be very well appointed and filled with beautiful art. And the Location! … we were right there with the boulders of Joshua Tree! And with shade trees and interesting plants the host has been growing there. Imagine driving into the Park and finding an interesting place to settle for a while as you enjoy the desert and rock formations. Now imagine having a comfortable house… right there! With a pool and a spa… right there! Our group of friends typically takes retreats down to a ranch house in Baja, in the mountains east of Ensenada. We’ve owned it for decades – and the rock and plants are much like Joshua Tree. A few years ago, a Mexican cartel took over the region to harvest a prolific agave-type plant that is used for cosmetics. There was a fair amount of violence with local ranchers and on the roads. We haven’t gone down there together for a long time...and chose Dale’s Villa dei Fiori because the landscape reminded us of Mexico. Coming to Dale’s place in Joshua Tree was just what we needed… to rekindle our sense of that remote ranch, the wild country, and to reconnect in a lovely, comfortable place. We felt lucky. ##### Ralph C. Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### chad k. Jul 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Love My Dale.

This phenomenal rental came in clutch when our group decided to scrap the camping plans last minute due to the heat. Dale’s place was perfect. It accommodated our group and sits right up against the park. Great jump off for adventures and the salt water pool welcomed us on our return. Looking forward to another stay at this location when the summer heat simmers down. ##### Sean C.
