Both the accommodations and the main house were truly unique, and the hosts were friendly and helpful.

This is an amazing place if you are looking for something very special that you will remember the rest of your life. If you are looking for a luxury hotel with amazing comfort, it's not for you.

Carlo and Jack were sooooo hospitable and lovely. The experience was wonderful. Hope to return someday Plus dog friendly to the max

It was a little chaotic.

The decor was eclectic (largely thrift store finds, donations, or recycled materials)- not to my taste but maybe to others who like the artsy, shabby-chic vibe. You're supporting an artist's colony and creative use of recycled materials that would otherwise have been landfill. The managers were friendly.

The price advertised on Booking.com was $178/night. I ended up paying >$300. They charged $50 for my son who was traveling with us, plus $55 for a room cleaning fee, plus taxes, but I still don't get why the final bill was over $300 to stay in a tiny, converted trailer that stood just over 6 feet tall (no meals provided). There were spiders in the shower and tiny bugs flying through the trailer. There was no wi-fi in the rooms (only inside the office our outside the office window). The place was also hard to find- don't try to get there after dark because it would be impossible to find (plus they charge an extra $35 for checking in after 7:30pm). If you're looking for a hotel don't book this place- this is more of an off-the-grid retreat.

Carlo and Jack are vivacious hosts. The exotic hideaway's eccentric habitat juxtaposes wonderfully with serene, subtle beauty of the surrounding desert.

The oasis at Villa Anita is an eclectic surprise in the middle of the desert. We arrived during a beautiful sunset and were swept into the Villa by the host with open arms and a beautiful dinner. Words can not truly describe the intimacy of the esthetic they have created there. It's been a month since my stay and I still think about this incredible place regularly. I can't wait to go back. Our rooms were clean, comfortable, warm and decorated with surprising treasures from around the world. Our hosts were both intuitive and thoughtful and spent a lot of time ensuring that we were warm, fed, entertained and happy.

Had I known how much I would love the villa, I would have booked it for a 3-night weekend.

Great vibe with gracious hosts and unforgettable experience

Nothing

Breakfast and Dinner were awesome. The proper is full of art pieces and dogs.

Great location for our base to visit Death Valley.

No hot showers or decent water pressure.

Villa Anita has an amazing assortment of art that creates an amazing ambiance in the desert for visitors. Each room/trailer has its own theme and you could spend hours exploring the facility and all of its wonders. We plan on coming back very soon! Carlo is an amazing host and an absolute joy to talk to. He and his crew genuinely care about the guests that stay here. 10/10

An artistic experience in a beautiful, secluded location. Dinner with the hosts was fantastic and we enjoyed the incredible stargazing every night. Even saw a SpaceX satellite pass directly overhead one evening (so cool!).

My partner kept hitting his head on the low doorway in our room. But hey it was part of the experience lol!

Villa Anita is a unique property due to the artistically delightful owners who've made this a peaceful paradise in Death Valley.

An uplifting surprise in an area surrounded by desert. The dinner is 100% worth it. Go with an open mind and you were not regret this place!

The breakfast is awesome. Both the hosts are super nice and welcoming. As an architectural designer, it is a really interesting place to stay to see how a community like this works out!

I would say I don't have anything unsatisfied but if you are people that are looking for luxury living style this is not for you.

Not much!

There was no TV there is no Wi-Fi there were no restaurants close the food provided thru was very expensive we had to pay for a coffee. Just needs more upgrades I wish I Could Get My Money Back

This is definitely a unique stay and experience! It's a great location from which to explore Death Valley and Tecopa, or just to relax in a creative space. We spent some time walking around the property and exploring all the many curated spaces. The room is really comfortable, with a great bed and shower. The staff were also lovely, and we had a great dinner chatting with the staff and other guests.

Nothing!

Everything. Literally everything.

Fabulous creative oasis for those who are unbound from convention. The use of tapestries to create intimate spaces and shaded passageways is delightful, and Carlos' opulent collection of almost everything is displayed with color and panache. There are plants and divans and sitting places all around, so one can enjoy the indoor-outdoor delights. I was with a group of 6 adults and a dog, and we all loved our accommodations & the big yummy breakfast. The hospitality was wonderful, including (but not limited to) a terrific Pinot upon arrival after a long drive. I'm a big fan of the Tecopa area, and will definitely be back to enjoy Carlos (& Jack's) big vision of post-apocalyptic, up-use, re-cycled luxe.

Will you think me a rube if I don't criticize? This scene may not be fir everyone, but I & my family/friends found it fully fabulous. I even brought home a lovely cut-tin illuminated Xmas tree (everything's for sale and there's a lot!!) as a memento.

Great place and experience.....Booked on Booking.com but was assured this is not a hotel.....and it is not, what a great place to experience, including the owners.....if you do not have an interest in doing something different and out of your comfort zone don't go to this non-hotel. If you interested in something completely different....perfect.

Toilet smelled.
