This New 10-acre Desert Escape Has Private Pools, Sleek Villas, and Concierge Service—and Its Just Minutes From Joshua Tree
Set on 10 private acres and less than a 10-minute drive from the park entrance, Panorama Villas by Fieldtrip is a modern desert compound designed for connection—and escape. It features five custom-built villas, each outfitted with a private heated pool and hot tub, game room, and ample outdoor gathering space.
It's a hospitality hybrid, with the intimacy and privacy of a vacation rental paired with the services of a boutique hotel. Think: 24/7 concierge and curated experiences ranging from private chefs to sound baths. And it's all located between the north and west entrances of Joshua Tree National Park and just minutes from the town of Joshua Tree.
The villas can be booked individually—ideal for families, small groups, or short creative retreats—or together as a full estate, creating an 18-bedroom, fully serviced enclave. The design encourages a sense of community while offering enough room to truly spread out.
'Panorama Villas represents everything we've been working toward—a property that really pushes the boundaries of what a custom-built vacation rental can be,' Ramin Savar, co-founder of Fieldtrip, a company known for its high-touch desert retreats, said in a press release shared with Travel + Leisure . 'Over the years, we've carved out a niche as the go-to in the desert for hosting group gatherings, film productions, and retreats, thanks to our team's ability to deliver complex, high-touch events. Panorama was designed specifically to meet this demand—a purpose-built estate for group experiences, backed by the infrastructure to execute these events flawlessly.'
At the center of the property is Peak, the largest of the five homes. With eight bedrooms and six bathrooms arranged across two wings, it comfortably hosts up to 12 guests and functions as a natural gathering space for larger parties. A 20-foot dining table anchors the open-concept living area, while game and entertainment rooms (with a bar, billiards, and arcade games) add a playful edge. Outside, two side-by-side pools and adjacent hot tubs are flanked by fire pits and outdoor kitchens.
Three- and two-bedroom villas—Crest A, Vista A, Crest B, Vista B—round out the compound. Each offers a similar aesthetic and amenity profile: clean lines, chef's kitchens, indoor-outdoor flow, and mountain views. The interiors, designed by Los Angeles-based Kevin Klein Design, take cues from the desert itself, as all five homes feature warm textures, natural palettes, and tactile materials that feel both modern and grounded.
Bookings, whether for individual villas or the entire estate, can be made at StayFieldtrip.com. Rates for Peak start at over $2,000 a night.

A couple went to Africa on their 5th date. Now they're engaged, and the bride-to-be has a custom ring that nods to that trip.
Natasha Gabbayan, 29, and Josh Banayan, 36, have been together since 2023. Banayan recently proposed at their first-date spot with a standout engagement ring he designed. The ring nods to a trip the couple took to Africa and their relationship overall. California natives Natasha Gabbayan and Josh Banayan weren't completely sold on each other after their first four dates. Still, they had a connection. So Banayan did what anyone in his position would: he asked Gabbayan to travel with him to Cape Town for the wedding of a childhood friend. She said yes. "We fell in love in Africa," Banayan, a business owner, told Business Insider. "It was a crazy, five-day experience." They danced, got to know each other, and even went on a safari in Namibia. "It was funny because there were four other couples on that safari with us," he said. "Three were celebrating their honeymoon, one of them was proposing there, and then it was us. We were like, 'Yeah, we kind of just met.'" They've been together since that 2023 trip and are now celebrating their own engagement. Gabbayan's standout ring even has a special tie to that early trip overseas. Playing the long game Banayan, 36, made a plan earlier this year to ensure Gabbayan, 29, would never suspect he was about to propose. Four months in advance, he scheduled a weekly dinner reservation at the Sunset Tower Hotel in West Hollywood, where they had their first date. "We called it Tower Tuesdays," he said. "I'd call her an Uber, and I'd already be there. We'd get drinks and treat it like our first date." Gabbayan describes her partner as a "big planner," so she never considered that the recurring dates might be a ruse. When she arrived one Tuesday in June and was led to a suite, however, she knew something was up. "My heart started racing and I kind of blacked out a little from excitement," she said. A violinist performed Gabbayan's favorite songs as she walked in, and Banayan launched into "a five-minute speech." Though she doesn't remember it, Gabbayan knows she said yes when he asked her to marry him. They spent the rest of their night having a private dinner in their suite, enjoying the same dishes they had on their first date, like pigs in a blanket. The couple also wore matching pajamas, filmed family videos on Banayan's childhood camcorder, and signed a bottle of Blue Label scotch, which they hope will be the first drink they share with their future children. A one-of-a-kind ring to match a special love story Banayan told nearly no one that he was going to propose. He called his parents that morning and asked Gabbayan's father for permission to marry her two hours before their scheduled date. He also didn't seek help when designing his bride-to-be's engagement ring. "I have this philosophy that a man, if he's asking a woman to marry him, should know exactly what ring she wants," Banayan said. "He shouldn't have to take hints or have the girl tell him." "Marriage and relationships are all about listening, especially as a man," he added. "Just listen to the woman, and you should know." Gabbayan, who owns a vintage clothing brand, admitted to being "so nervous" about giving up creative control. "I want to say I had faith, but I didn't have that much faith," she said. But Banayan did his research. For months, he monitored Gabbayan's personal style and the jewelry accounts she follows on Instagram. His final design included two attached gold bands — representing the couple being a team — with their birthstones, a ruby and an aquamarine, hidden inside the ring's band. A vintage-inspired cushion-cut diamond sits on top. "When I'm looking at her rock, her birthstone on the bottom is facing me because she always comes first," Banayan said. "And when she's looking at her ring, my stone is facing her because I always come first to her." The ring was also crafted by Banayan's childhood friend, who now works in the diamond industry — the same friend who got married in Africa and brought the couple together. "It's really who I am and exactly what I like," Gabbayan said of her ring. "He really hit it right on the nail, without me even realizing that's something that I would've wanted. I couldn't have described it better if I wanted to." With a ring on her hand and a wedding to plan, Gabbayan said she's woken up every day since her proposal with a smile on her face. "I know that I'll look at this ring 50 years from now and remember that he spent four months designing and picking out every detail," she said. "I can buy myself a ton of jewelry, but an engagement ring is supposed to be sentimental and remind you of your person." All that's left for the couple to do now is get married.

This Inexpensive Multitool Deserves a Spot in My Go Bag
It wasn't until I moved to the San Francisco Bay Area that I decided I needed to put together an emergency go bag to keep around the house. I live less than a mile from the fault that earthquake experts say is the region's most dangerous. So one of the most frequently asked questions in my house is "Did you feel that?" Earthquakes don't issue a warning so my family and I have created an emergency plan for when the need arises: We keep our car fueled up, we have our portable chargers topped up and we all know how to shut off our gas. But maybe the most important prep work we've done is to put together an emergency go bag, also known as a bug-out bag. One item I've included in my go bag is a multitool by Gerber that includes pliers, scissors, screwdrivers, wire cutters and a knife. You can drop a lot of money on a multitool and some of those more expensive models are worth it. But because I wanted to buy more than one of these -- because my kids could always use one too -- price and weight were important to me, which is why I chose the Gerber Dime 12-in-1 Mini multitool. Usually priced at about $30, this multitool is always worth grabbing, whether it's on sale or not. Right now you can get the red version for $26, a 10% discount. Below, I'll explain why I like this tool so much. For more mainstays of the go bag, here are our favorite power banks for iPhones and the best portable solar panels. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. Where this multitool fits into my emergency preparedness plans In addition to having bug-out bags at the ready, we keep an extensive earthquake kit in a big toy chest. With this big kit -- called a stay box -- weight isn't really an issue, and we can store enough food, water and whatever else we need to make it through a few days or even weeks. But in a go bag, each item has to be portable and essential, because weight adds up quickly. (This is the mini lantern I went with.) The Gerber Dime 12-in-1 Mini weighs just a few ounces and fits into the palm of my hand when it's folded up. Gerber Dime 12-in-1 Mini multitool specs Material: Stainless steel Stainless steel Dimensions when open: 5.5 x 4 x 0.6 inches 5.5 x 4 x 0.6 inches Dimensions when closed: 5.5 x 2.75 x 0.6 inches 5.5 x 2.75 x 0.6 inches Weight: 2.2 ounces 2.2 ounces Included tools: Pliers, wire cutter, tweezers, small and medium-size flat-head screwdrivers, bottle opener, retail package opener, plain-edge blade, scissors, fine and coarse files, lanyard/key ring Why the Gerber Dime Mini makes a great gift This is also a great tool to have in your car or your desk drawer at work. Gerber Giving this multitool may seem an overly practical gift but there will eventually be a time that it will come in handy for anyone. Plus, you really can't beat its price compared to some of the competition out there. This is perfect for your handy friends who could always use another gadget for fixing things or for someone who's building out their emergency bags.
