Only 10 minutes from polo fields!

Welcome to Buena Vista, an unparalleled desert oasis in the heart of California's iconic Coachella Valley!

*The Space*
Located on 40+ acres of lush desert playground, Buena Vista is the ideal location for vacations and events alike. This 7,700 sqft 9-bedroom mid-century modern estate can sleep up to 20 people. Take advantage of the expansive freshwater lake, saloon-style wet bar, bonfire area, bocce ball, horseshoe rings, and al fresco dining area for your whole group. Venture inside, and you'll find an open floor plan connecting a beautifully designed living room with an impressive gallery wall, a spacious dining area and kitchen built for a chef, and an eclectic game room and wet bar. With so much to see and do both in and out of the home, there's never a dull moment at Buena Vista.

*The Experience*
Spend your days relaxing on the ranch and enjoying AvantStay's unique, experiential amenities right at the comfort of your home-away-from-home. Wake up early for a morning paddle board ride on the lake before the desert sun hits its peak. Catch some rays by the pool. Enjoy yoga and a sound bath under the lush palm trees. Gather around the beautiful fire pit overlooking the mountains and lake as the sky begins to turn pink. Sit down for dinner made by your personal chef and end the night with a game of billiards with your best friends. This is Buena Vista, and the possibilities are endless!

*The Location*
Venture off the property and take advantage of Buena Vista's ideal location for world-class golfing, a spa day, or any outdoor adventure you can think of. Restaurants and shopping at El Paseo are just a short 15-minute drive away. Take a trip into downtown Palm Springs or an afternoon hike in Joshua Tree. Adventure seekers can go south for 20 minutes to find the best off-roading trails in the California desert, while music fans and polo enthusiasts alike can visit the Empire Polo Club, just 6 miles north of the home.

*Events*
The grounds offer several ideal venues for everything from weddings and birthday parties to family reunions and corporate retreats. With a 3,500 sqft barn, country-style saloon, and outdoor arena perfect for weddings, you can’t miss out on all that Buena Vista has to offer. Other on-site offerings include outdoor restrooms and parking for large groups. A personal concierge team is dedicated to cultivating a truly unique experience for you and your group.

A 90-minute drive from LA, Palm Springs has earned its reputation as a long-time favorite desert destination. Attracting movie stars, such as Marilyn Monroe and Frank Sinatra, it boasts an old-Hollywood history dating back to the 20s. Mid-century modern architecture adds to a nostalgic feel while trendy shopping, hip restaurants, and lively bars keep things modern. Hop from one renowned golf course & spa to the next, or explore the Coachella Valley desert by way of hiking, ATVs, or horseback.

Best Weekend Ever

Everything about this place made it the best weekend ever. The property manager made the initial process of getting into the place as seamless as possible, allowing me to order ahead groceries to be delivered before we got there. The place is as described - absolute massive grounds with plenty of activities to keep us busy the entire time, without ever feeling the need to leave. Would 1000% come back.
