Suite 3 - The Sonoran Traveler

Such a beautiful home base for us as we toured Joshua Tree National Park each day. It was our little oasis. I was traveling with a childhood friend, so we chose the Sonoran Traveler for the two bedrooms. Beds were so comfortable. Beautiful light coming in all day long. A lovely courtyard for sitting and reading and having coffee. Nice to have evening air coming in-- windows on three sides of the unit (including the small bathroom window). We didn't use the AC since temps were not too hot and because the trees really keep the unit quite cool and comfortable. I enjoyed seeing the sunrise from the little step outside my bedroom door. And we sure loved our private courtyard as well as all the other outdoor spaces on the property, with such thoughtful seating/tables/decorations. Surrounded by hummingbirds and songbirds and flowers blooming and gorgeous tree canopy. What a sweet place. Everyone was so friendly. I would not hesitate to book again. This was just what we needed, and I do hope to be back again. We were commenting that this (with the multiple units) would be an amazing place to book for a group.

So clean and Joel was super helpful. Great stay!!

Affordable overnight stay near Joshua Tree National Park.

Loved it! We plan to come back!

I'll start with the good. This is a quiet compound with a cool vibe, a neat pool, and easy access to Joshua Tree National Park. Now the bad. We discovered numerous dead bugs in the bed as well as a few long black hairs (neither my girlfriend nor I have black hair). We attempted to contact the host to resolve this issue, and they did not respond. The unit also lacked privacy. First, someone could look right into the bathroom. In addition, the front door had a window which was barely covered by a see-through veil, providing a direct line of sight to the bed. It was very uncomfortable to be so exposed.

It was an extremely pleasant stay; a very charming bungalow to stay at. Will definitely be coming back!

Lovely little vacation compound in the desert with beautiful grounds, a cactus garden, birds and wildlife and easy access to everything in the area.

Charming and funky but with sleeping for 4 there were only two metal chairs for to use the dining table. At least two comfortable chairs placed in the main room to watch tv would have been nice.

The hosts were friendly; the suite was clean and inviting and the kitchen was well stocked. This was one of the most relaxing stays we have ever had, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for somewhere to stay in Joshua Tree, California.

Kitchen was fully equipped for cooking, property was very clean, sitting area very nice, did not use pool only stayed night and was there late and out early. Overall the stay is nice, mattress was not great but ok, but we all have better mattresses at home so not going to ding it for that.

Amazing spot! Had everything we needed, all in a perfect location with beautiful grounds and views! Joel stopped by to introduce himself and make sure everything was okay on our first day there. Cannot recommend this little gem in the desert enough! Certainly hope to return one day!

Perfect getaway spot in Joshua Tree. Great location to tour town and get to the park. Clean and calming. Had a stocked kitchen and shampoo/conditioner/body wash in addition to the bathroom amenities. The property manager was immediately responsive and helpful. Would absolutely recommend this property.

The little bungalow was clean and as described. The pool was a welcome bonus.We just had a little issue with the AC leaking on us in the middle of the night.

We loved our stay! So cozy, convenient to park and town.

Shower and bathroom small but adequate

We had a lovely stop here on our cross country road trip! Definitely the most beautiful part of our stay. Joel was attentive, helpful, and has curated a fantastic place to stay in Joshua Tree!

Good location for visiting Joshua Tree, fairly small quarters, but not bad.

Lovely, charming place. I loved that there was a closet with hangers and nice little things in the kitchen to make everything more comfortable

This was the perfect getaway for a family trip. We loved Spin & Margies! It was close to the park entrance but still away from the main drag. Our host was great. Communication was easy and warm hearted. We will be returning.

Everything was in great condition! Bathroom was small but everything was overall very comfortable. All other guests were respectful and the property was gorgeous.

Almost excellent stay! The kitchen was hard to work with due to size and lack of stove (there were electric hot plates) since we were staying three days and cooking. Views are great and other accommodations great!

Only thing missing was a drain plug. Manager got us one the day I asked. He was quite friendly and helpful.

This place is adorable, has everything you need, and is close to Joshua Tree! 10/10 I would stay again. :)

Everything was nice enough and they had the A/C turned on for me before I arrived.

Close to everything, clean, cute, great patio outside. This was perfect - had absolutely everything we needed. The host was so nice and communicative with the couple questions we had - and so quick to answer. Great for renting one unit but now we want to come back and bring a group of friends - it's perfect for either!

Epitome of the vrbo we wanted!!

Number 3 was blissfully air conditioned when we arrived on a hot afternoon. The interior was lovely and the beds comfortable. The property was quiet. And when I accidentally left my phone in the room after checkout, one of the proprietors graciously let me back in. We’ll definitely be back!

It was very charming clean cottage. In the best way possible it kind of has an alien vibes. You can wonder around the compound, which is a feast for the eyes, with many interesting and eclectic artifacts to view We only stayed a night but it was great. We sat in our private patio, looking at the most amazing stars, and hearing the coyotes in the distance All and all it was wonderful

Love how cozy the place is. Slept like a baby. Area feels safe. Place has complete amenities. Very good for its price. Would appreciate it if they added mirrors outside the bathroom. Other than that would recommend and book again.

I stayed for 2 nights and found it to be very relaxing. This is a very original kind of place, maybe not for everyone. It is not like a chain motel, it has real character.

Lots of surprises. Didnt know about the pool. Loved outdoor patio. Peaceful

We had a wonderful stay at Spin & Margie's (not the actual names of the owners haha) for our girls' weekend. The 3rd room was perfect for three of us with three beds, and the little kitchen was enough for our needs. We enjoyed takeout dinner in the courtyard each night, watched the sunset from our patio, and watched movie in the room. The owners were very friendly and responsive, and the whole place was very cute. There's even a heated pool (which I missed when booking so we didn't have swimsuits). We will definitely stay here when we visit Joshua Tree again. We can't wait to come back!

Very cozy and comfortable stay. Great outdoor space to enjoy as well. Just as advertised. Felt like a little oasis along 29 Palms Hwy.
