Our Guests' Experience

Guest Reviews

The villa is a dream!! We had a sweet wellness focused, girls weekend here. I will most definitely be back to host a retreat here! The villa is luxury meets an earthy spiritual feel. We had a group of 12 people but at not point did we feel crowded. The backyard is so comfy, we just hung out by the pool the entire day. Our beds were super comfy and I was also impressed by how spacious the bathrooms are, so a few gals can get ready at the same time. Labrinth circle and fire pit at the front of the home are amazing bonus! All this to say you’ll have everything you need to indulge in the Restoration of the desert ❤️

Gaia Villa was the perfect place to host our women's retreat! The space is absolutely gorgeous, the amenities are all spectacular, and no detail has gone unnoticed. I cannot recommend Gaia Villa enough for your next retreat or group gathering.

Guest Reviews

I recently had the opportunity to experience the Gaia Villa and Joshua Tree. The weekend was amazing. The energy that flows through this space instantly relaxed me. The accommodations were beautiful and inviting. It was obvious that the hosts of the property thought through every aspect from the beautifully furnished rooms, fully stocked kitchen, relaxing fire pits, to the multiple hammock swings. Oh and did I mention there’s a hot tub and yoga studio. All that is left to do is relax.
