About this house rental
Welcome to Villa Marrakech by The Cohost Company! This Moroccan-inspired desert sanctuary set on over 2 private acres in California's High Desert was curated with earthy, hand-crafted furnishings from Morocco and Argentina. This newly built & fully-fenced home will transport you to a world of relaxation and luxury. Lounge poolside, soak in the healing saltwater pool or unwind in the hot tub, and experience the unparalleled artistry in the sunrises, sunsets and starry night skies by the firepit.
The Space:
Villa Marrakech is more than a home, it’s an immersive design experience inspired by global travels and rooted in natural desert elements. Raw plaster walls, smooth concrete floors, carved stone, and warm wood tones create a grounding, sensory-rich environment that feels both luxurious and organic. Every detail has been intentionally sourced - from hand-thrown Moroccan vases to African chairs and Argentine textiles - layering the home with depth, story, and soul.
Sunlight pours through expansive windows, shifting throughout the day and illuminating the textures within. The architecture blurs the line between indoors and out, creating a seamless flow that invites stillness, creativity, and complete relaxation. The atmosphere is calm, elevated, and quietly opulent, like stepping into a boutique desert hotel designed for restoration.
-Outdoor Amenities-
The outdoor space is the heart of the experience - a private, resort-like oasis designed to feel like your own desert spa. The saltwater pool becomes a central ritual, its soft, mineral-rich water offering a gentler, more restorative soak under the open sky. Nearby, a tranquil spa invites long, slow evenings beneath the stars.
Surrounding the pool, luxurious rattan double loungers with oversized umbrellas create shaded retreats for sun-drenched afternoons. Sculptural artifact vases and curated decor elements bring a sense of global sophistication to the landscape, elevating every corner. Sonos speakers extend throughout the outdoor space, allowing music to drift effortlessly from poolside to patio.
The fully fenced acreage is dotted with over 80 Joshua trees, ancient olive trees, and native desert plantings, all connected by thoughtful stone pathways. A firepit anchors the evenings, where glowing sunsets fade into vast, star-filled skies. An outdoor shower completes the spa-like experience, offering a refreshing connection to the elements.
-Living Area-
Step through the hand-carved front door and Inside, the living space is both refined and inviting, designed for slow, intentional living. The Samsung Frame TV sits on a stone wall that anchors the space, and blends seamlessly into the aesthetic, doubling as art when not in use, while the Sonos surround sound system fills the space with immersive audio. The living area flows seamlessly into the dining room, kitchen, and back patio, creating an open, cohesive space that allows for effortless movement and connection throughout your stay. Large windows frame the desert like a living painting, bringing the outside in and creating a constant connection to the landscape. Whether it’s a quiet morning with coffee or a cozy evening after a day of exploring, the space invites you to settle in and unwind.
-Kitchen & Dining-
The kitchen is modern, fully equipped, and thoughtfully designed to balance beauty and functionality. Clean, concrete countertops and quality appliances make it ideal for everything from casual meals to shared cooking experiences. The kitchen island has a breakfast bar and the dining area directly borders from the kitchen, creating a welcoming space for connection and conversation. An outdoor dining and a BBQ extend the experience beyond the walls of the home, allowing for meals under the desert sky - sunset dinners, long evenings, and slow mornings in the open air.
-Bedrooms & Bathrooms-
The two bedrooms are designed as serene, private retreats, each layered with soft textures and calming tones. Beds are dressed in premium linens and cotton bedding sourced from Peru, offering a luxurious, hotel-quality sleep experience. The primary bedroom has a king bed and an ensuite bathroom, while the secondary bedroom has a queen bed and a bathroom just down the hallway.
The bathrooms continue the spa-like aesthetic, with clean, modern finishes and a sense of understated elegance. Each space is designed to feel restorative - quiet, minimal, and refined - mirroring the tranquility of the surrounding desert. Rain showers in each bathroom and an outdoor shower elevate every rinse into a spa-like ritual, while the hallway bathroom features a serene soaking tub designed for slow, restorative unwinding.
-Surrounding Area-
Set in the heart of the High Desert, Villa Marrakech offers access to some of California’s most iconic natural beauty. Joshua Tree National Park is just minutes away, where otherworldly rock formations, desert trails, and vast open skies create an unforgettable landscape.
The nearby communities of Joshua Tree and Yucca Valley offer a vibrant blend of art, culture, and local charm, with boutiques, cafés, and markets to explore. The region is known for its expansive desert vistas, rugged mountains, and unmatched sunsets - an environment that feels both grounding and inspiring.
