Secluded and Sexy, Big Swimming Pool, Garden and Cave on Boundary of JT. Park

Swimming weather as arrived at Villa dei Fiori. We encourage you to take our fragrant boughs home with you. Photographers, families and lovers will escape their cares amid the solitude and beauty of trees, flowers, boulders, and caves. Imagine that you are in the Mediterranean and simultaneously on the Joshua Tree National Park. We provide a tour of the garden and house upon arrival. Chill out in a grove of fragrant cypresses and pines surrounded by giant outcroppings of stone. Plunge into a 36 ft. x 20 ft. x 6 ft deep saltwater pool with scents of jasmine, rosemary, and cypress. Cut roses, rosemary, Desert Bird of Paradise, Wisteria, Arizona Blue cypress, and French lavender to take home with you. The garden has wonderful fragrances unlike any other place in the desert. Hike right into the national park to see bobcats, hawks, owls, foxes, lizards, and Gambels quail. There are three bedrooms and a sofa sleeper in the living room which is good for one person, or a child. There are many cushions to make an additional pallet bed in the library. The kitchen is furnished for chefs. Cozy up on a carpet in our three-chamber cave over a wood fire. We provide a carpet to make the cave cozy. We like to host children who adore animals and explore caves.

Explore our Valley of the Moon caves and canyons immediately behind the house where you'll not see other hikers. Absolute privacy. Explore dramatic rock formations of the National Park without getting into your car. Ideas for hiking trails from the house directly into the park are provided during our tour upon your arrival. Villa dei Fiori is the home of a filmmaker and author who has created a haven for solitude and serenity. Bighorn sheep are often seen on the boulders over the house. Bring your your camera and binoculars. We provide pruners to cut fragrant rosemary, French lavender, Carolina jasmine, and Arizona Blue cypress to take home.. Pruning shears are by the kitchen door and we have many vases for making bouquets. Rejuvenate at Villa dei Fiori with aroma therapy and tranquility.

The pool is open 12 months of the year but the best swimming time begins in April and May and lasts through mid-October, after which time it begins to cool down due to falling night time temperatures. Joshua Tree is often 12 degrees cooler than Palm Springs. The hot spa heats to 104 degrees. The propane barbecue is on the kitchen terrace just 12 feet from the kitchen adjacent to the laundry room. Two dining terraces overlook the boulders and a Joshua Tree. You surrounded by the heavenly scent of Arizona Blue cypress, Desert Bird of Paradise, Tuscan rosemary and French lavender.

This places was very nice and private! 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!

It was exactly what our daughter wanted for her birthday (which was climbing the boulders) we will definitely be booking again over the summer with more time in our stay so we can enjoy the pool . Thanks Dale for sharing this beautiful home with us.

A special place

Comfortable, private and beautiful retreat nestled into a ridge of desert boulders near JT entrances. Rock climbing, caves, pool/spa and a great library! Adaptation to climate change forced replacement of original roses and lavender with large trees, rosemary, jasmine, birds of paradise, blue palo verde and more. Devoted stewardship and a very special place!

Perfect Getaway Spot

My friends and I had a wonderful time staying at this property. Dale was very communicative and friendly and gave us a thorough tour of the house and property upon our arrival--it's clear that he has put a lot of work into it and is a steward of the land and a genuine appreciator of Joshua Tree's beauty. The kitchen is fully stocked, the beds are comfortable, the outdoor spaces are wonderful to spend time in. We even saw big horns during our stay! Very close to downtown Joshua Tree and not far from Twentynine Palms or Yucca Valley. If you're looking for a peaceful vacation in nature, this is the place for you.

Memorable stay at Villa dei Fiori

We spent a fantastic winter holiday at Villa dei Fiori. Our host Dale provided beautiful accommodations in all the inside and outside spaces. Dale also offered plenty of options for enjoying our time at Joshua Tree National Park and on his lovely property. My husband, our adult offspring and I enjoyed our meals outside on the veranda during the day and by fire on another veranda at night. Walking from the Villa, we hiked and bouldered in the park our first full day. It turned out to be a secluded hike during one of the busiest weeks in the park. Stargazing every evening from the hot spa proved relaxing after climbs and hikes in Joshua Tree. Orion rose from the rocks every night to point the way to the zodiac beyond. Some even enjoyed the pool during the day and cold plunges at night between soaks in the hot spa. The night we had a fire in the cave was magical - one of the highlights of our trip. Visible stars peeked through openings in the rocks as we enjoyed the crackling fire and stillness of the cave. After full days and nights, we found our beds delightfully comfortable as we drifted off to sleep. Every view inside the home and outside on the property offers beauty and artistry. The home includes a library of books with a tremendous range of topics, which Dale encourages his guests to enjoy. We are looking forward to returning to Villa dei Fiori and cannot wait to dance on the rooftop of Villa dei Fiori II nearing completion.Cathy W.

Wonderful property and host in Joshua Tree

Just had an amazing short vacation at Dales property in Joshua Tree. His landscaping is amazing, the pool is as spectacular as the pictures. So much better than staying in a hotel. Here you can sit in the Hot Tub and watch the stars for as long as you want, uninterrupted! Dale is a great host, and a very creative artist, which shows in his carefully crafted garden, which has unique film set props.

Desert oasis

We rented this property for a getaway for my wifes birthday. We were looking to relax and we definitely found the place to do it. Dale has done a great job turning the grounds into a private & relaxing getaway nestled in the rocks. The grounds are great for hanging out by the pool to read, swim or take a nap in the hammock (which I did). Star gazing in the jacuzzi was fantastic and all the stores & restaraunts are 10/15min away. You can hike around right from the house & all the patios have a view. We ate breakfast outside every morning. The resident Roadrunner paid us several visits as well. We will definitely be going back! The

Perfect Desert Getaway!

We recently stayed at this desert rental, and it exceeded all my expectations! The property was beautifully maintained, with stunning views and all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was ideal for exploring nearby attractions and enjoying the tranquility of the desert. The host was incredibly responsive and provided excellent recommendations for local activities and dining. We especially loved the outdoor space for stargazing at night. I can’t recommend this place enough—it’s the perfect spot for a relaxing escape!

Relaxing stay

My family had the best time at the Villa. My adult kids pretty much spent the entire week in the pool. We hiked the 49 palms hike, which was so pretty and saw so much wildlife in the area. Dale was an excellent host and we enjoyed hearing about his plans and the new Villa.

Beautiful, Unique Oasis in the dessert

The villa was beautiful, spacious and unique. 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.

Profound property!

Life becomes rich when you stay in beautiful places and meet interesting people. If you’re a creative family and would like an experience that is not cookie cutter, you will enjoy this property! The location of the home situated adjacent to huge boulders was truly profound. Our seven-year-old daughter’s highlight was climbing the boulders and exploring the cave and of course swimming in the salt water pool. She said she wanted to stay and build a tiny home on the cliff overlooking the pool! We will cherish our experience in Joshua Tree. Dale was a kind and interesting host, his passion and creativity was a true inspiration.

Vacation of a lifetime

A hidden gem amongst the boulders, Villa dei Fiori is a true majestic escape. We spent 4 amazing nights relaxing in the hot tub and gazing into an unforgettable canvas of shining stars. From the landscape and wildlife to the serenity and seclusion we could not have dreamed of a more rejuvenating or memorable vacation. Each morning, we had visits from many geckos and during the days we saw two roadrunners, multiple hummingbirds, some cute bats in the evening, and a few coyotes, and occasionally at night we heard an orchestra of howls when the moon came up. Best of all, on the last morning, we were treated to a rare sighting of a bobcat sitting atop the head of the George Washington rock. We enjoyed our time lounging pool side soaking up the sun as well as taking refreshing dips in the saltwater pool. You feel like the only people in the world when at the pool as you are surrounded by boulders and trees. Dale has done a FANTASTIC job with the property; the grounds are breathtaking. You can truly see he has put his love and hard work into every square inch of this property. We can’t wait to come back again. Thank you, Dale, for sharing your slice of heaven with us! Fun Facts: You are within 15 minutes from 2 of JTNP entrances; there is an awesome cave that you see when Dale shows you around; he will also tell you about the nearby hikes including one straight into the park; and there is an astounding assortment of books in the house along with gorgeous art and cool décor.

Great Getaway from the City

The property is nestled against Joshua Tree National Park. It feels secluded but it is only a 10-minute drive to civilization. There are plenty of grocery stores, dining options and shops nearby. That said, you are far enough from the main highway to hear silence and enjoy the serenity of the night sky. The property is well kept, and the owner is very hospitable. He met us at the property and gave us a tour highlighting all the available amenities including showing us nearby hiking trails and how to access the on-property cave. He is available for questions and easy to get along with. I would definitely stay there again.

Amazing hiking getaway

Dale has an amazing property with great history. We loved the personal tour he gave upon arrival. Ask him about his career in the movies. We booked for 4 nights and went hiking 3 days including a hike right out the back of the property on the first day. This house is an obvious labor of love, well equipped, and a short drive from the amenities of town. Also, a short drive to one of the national park entrances. If hiking, check out Arch Rock and Eagle Cliff Mine (if your'e feeling adventurous). There is plenty to explore on the property as well as Rocky View LoopTrail that can be accessed from the back of the property in the park. We recommend this secluded unique home to anyone that wants to visit Joshua Tree National Park.

Magical Joshua Tree Property

What more can I say that has not already been said? This property, and the owner, Dale, are truly special. Affectionately named Villa de Fiori, I first discovered this property a few years ago while searching for VRBO homes near National Parks. I am so glad I saved it as a favorite and finally decided to book it this summer. My husband and I have 6 children (aged 12 to 1.5 years old) and we travel a considerable amount. Villa de Fiori surpassed our expectations. This place is not only beautiful, it is magical. What makes it so? Villa de Fiori is a labor of love, inside and out; it reflects many years of time and energy devoted to fulfilling Dale’s vision for the property. We enjoyed visiting Joshua Tree Park and doing all sorts of things locally (a jeep tour, rock climbing, and star gazing), but mostly, we really enjoyed staying at Villa de Fiori. This is an eclectic, practical home filled with wonderful art, photos, and an extensive library. Guests will be happy to find a well-stocked home that provides everything you might need (and then-some). We were happily surprised that there were plenty of toiletries, products, and all kinds of houseware items available for us to use. The hot tub and pool areas are spectacular. All the boulders and caves kept us busy as we climbed, explored, and built fires. We enjoyed Villa de Fiori so very much that we are already planning to come back! This is a one-of-a-kind property and experience.

Incredible oasis!

What an incredible experience we had staying in this beautiful home! The love, care and hard-work that has gone into this villa will leave you speechless. Dale has created an oasis in the middle of harsh, dry terrain. Growing flowers you’d never expect to see in a desert! His story is fascinating and his brilliance evident in the home he’s spent decades creating. The swimming pool surrounded by huge boulders was enjoyed by all of us, especially in the heat wave Joshua tree was having. It was our anniversary while we were there and my husband picked the most beautiful bouquet of flowers for me. Dale is so generous and tells you to pick whatever you want. We also collected some fresh rosemary to make our favorite recipe - rosemary potatoes. Truly there are no words for the beauty that surrounds you. Thank you Dale, for meeting you and for sharing your home, garden and story with us.

This was truly the most relaxing vacation that I can remember. No kids, no people, no stress.

The property was perfect for us. We hiked from the house to the valley above. We saw 7 big horn sheep and a baby. The big horns came within 50 yards of where we were sitting. Bring some water and snacks on your hike because you will want to stay and enjoy. The pool and hot tub were great. We spent a lot of time out there enjoying the scenery and stars at night. The baby quail and their mother could be seen in the garden area. Lots of different outdoor spaces for dinner and coffee. I can’t say enough about how peaceful it was. I be can’t think of a better place to unwind and recharge. Thank you Dale for this great retreat and being such a wonderful host. Chuck & Bridget Adinolfi

Family retreat with two teenagers (14/16)

Amazing location, Be prepared for a longer than typical welcome / tour of the property, very informative, but about 45 minutes to an hour long. Schedule accordingly if you are planning dinner once you get there ( 5:00 pm check in). About 20 minutes back to Yucca Valley or 15 minutes out to 29 Palms, so not a huge issue. The backyard of this property is the selling point. We hiked into the valley right behind the pool. Kids and I loved it, while wifey relaxed in the hammock reading a book in peace. The home itself is quaint, there are a lot of books and artifacts around the home. Not a place for toddlers or small inquisitive children, unless they are constantly supervised. Great Location for family decompression, no streaming services or live tv, which was wonderful. TV to watch vhs and dvd is there with a selection of movies.

Acerca del anfitrión

Anfitrión: Dale Pelton

Foto de perfil del anfitrión
Villa dei Fiori is a 1950's homestead that has been transformed by a wroter and filmmaker on fifteen acres with a one- acre garden and a saltwater swimming pool surrounded by boulders and trees. I planted my gardens for others to appreciate. I was an art director for films, including "Battlestar Galactica, " "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas", and designing the pirate ship for "The Goonies." I designed music videos for Olivia Newton, Travolta, and Cindy Lauper. Villa dei Fiori and gardens are a movie set, more exotic and secluded than other vacation rentals. I studied philosophy and history at University of Tulsa and received my master's degree in film at UCLA. I hitchhiked across America and Central America, journeys that inspired the characters in my book, chapters which can be viewed for free on "CelineOnFire.com." A drone video of Villa dei Fiori, gardens and wildlife may be seen on VRBO.
Working as a journalist for a black newspaper, "The Oklahoma Eagle," I covered Martin Luther King’s march from Selma to Montgomery and delivered an address in the rebuilt church which was burned to the ground in the 1921 Tulsa, Oklahoma Race Massacre. I organized concerts for jazz musicians, Baby Face Willette and Odetta, and opened The Bastille, a folk music and dance club. I produced and directed the film "Death of the Red Planet," in 35mm Cinemascope, quadraphonic sound, the first film created by lasers. , filmed in the laboratories of Cal-Tech. Praised by "American Cinematographer," and "Hollywood Reporter," the film was invited to the Cannes Film Festival and played in 600 theaters across America. My first film design was "Battlestar Galactica." I worked with Steven Spielberg ("The Goonies"), Terry Gilliam ("Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas",) Paul Verhoeven ("Hollowman".) I wrote the screenplay for "East of the Moon," and " Celine on Fire." My novel, "Celine on Fire," is set in 1950s Paris and behind the Iron Curtain.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

I discovered Joshua Tree in 1968 when I visited mt family who were original homestead settlers from Oklahoma who moved to California in the 1930s. My grandmother's sisters homesteaded in Joshua Tree in the early 1950s. Revena and Gwendolyn were original settlers. I purchased the property in 1988 and restored the original homestead house by taking it down to the studs and removing interior walls to open up the living room and kitchen, and installed thirteen French doors that open onto six terraces with pergolas laden with fragrant climbing plants.
I began the garden thirty-five years ago planting a grove of Italian Stone pines, now 35 years old,. The terraces and surrounding sculpted berms of decomposed granite have been sculpted over the years. Bighorn sheep often come off the park into our valley of the moon where bobcats, kit foxes, and roadrunners roam.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

You will find complete privacy right on the Joshua Tree National Park. Children and adults love the three-chamber cavern partially open to the sky with a fire pit for dinner parties close to house. We provide linens and pillows for extra guests. Barbecue is on Kitchen terrace. Giant Joshua Tree in the boulders. Villa dei Fiori's boundary is immediately on the Joshua Tree National Park. Our Valley of the Moon is perfect for bouldering and rock climbing and exploring the canyons of the park adjacent to Villa dei Fiori..
Large saltwater pool surrounded by boulders and oversized Jacuzzi spa for six. Many windows and 13 glass French doors open to garden and boulder views from every room, the scent of cypress and French lavender enveloping the house.
