Host profile image
I love traveling and sharing my home with other travelers. I'm also an artists and designer and strive to create magical spaces with thought and attention to every single detail. A vacation stay isn't just a place to stay the night - it should feel like experience.

Why they chose this property

ArtLoft was created out of the vision to get away, reset and surround oneself in a vacation experience that inspires, relaxes and invites play. The feeling is to invite you, the visitor into a space to reconnect with your inner child. Sit in the hot tub under the milky way after a day of hiking, play games inside or bocce ball outside, get inspired, paint, draw, write, reflect, journal, relax, find your inner 'foodie' with a chef's kitchen supplied with everything you might need to spark up a wonderful meal.

What makes this property unique

Art supplies including paints and canvas, vintage typewriter, record player, custom designed 'Nest' day bed sculpture, bubble hair chair, art loft vibe, well-stocked kitchen, BBQ, landscaped outdoor deck and yard area, front cactus garden, 2 minutes to 'downtown' Joshua Tree, sliding doors to open or close off spaces, lounge media area, tons of art books, 22 feet of workspace and chairs, rolls of paper for creative project, chalk board walls... a playground of creative things to do!
