Villa Anita DV 10 Sunset Road, Tecopa, CA 92389

"Carlo and Jack are the ultimate hosts. Carlo made sure to know when I was arriving and met me as I drove onto the property. This was followed by a tour, some wine, and a fun and delicious dinner with another guest and some of their local friends. Visiting with Carlo and Jack, you quickly feel like a long lost cousin being welcomed back to the family. I was very cozy and warm in the Bird’s Nest (temps ranged from around freezing to fifties during my stay). I truly think it was the most comfortable bed and pillows I have experienced while traveling. I loved exploring their property; around every corner, there was something new to surprise and delight me. The juxtaposition of found art next to the art of Mother Nature was the perfect mix for me. Oh, they also gave me a great recommendation for a local restaurant…shout out to Steaks and Beer!!!"

"Villa Anita...what can I say. One of the most amazing an unique airBnB experiences ever. If you want your own experience of "night at the museum" this is the place to do it. The art is so incredible to be immersed in and it's truly an unforgettable experience curated by the iconic Jack and Carlo. Those two really are something. The most welcoming and kind-hearted hosts who don't just create a place for people to visit, they create a home for people to stay. Communication is an art these two know very well. They make you feel like one of the family with their tours, classes, wine hours and incredible feasts at the enormous dining table. I really appreciate how they don't just get to know you but also create a space for guests to mingle and get to know each other. I've been three times already and I'm planning my next visit in a few months! Can't wait!"

"Barbara and I received a warm welcome from Carlo and Jack the moment we arrived. We were given a tour of the property, dropped our bags in the room, and attended dinner with Carlo, Jack and the other guests that evening. There was a social hour, with wine, before dinner. Once we were acquainted, we all sat down at a large table and were treated to one of the finest meals I have ever eaten. Carlo is an excellent chef and Jack makes sure everything runs smoothly. The food, wine and conversation were all great. The next morning, we enjoyed a fine breakfast and a leisurely departure. Carlo and Jack are very good hosts. The hotel art collection is unique and interesting. The desert location is peaceful and quiet!"

"Villa Anita is the place you will just keep coming back to! Almost as soon as I returned home from my first visit, I was buying flights to return! As an East Coast native, the desert scenes never fail to take my breath away, and the experience is only made more amazing by the immersive and artistic nature of the property. Carlo and Jack are kind, welcoming, gracious, and generous hosts with so much joy, love, and creativity to share. You could spend the whole day exploring their property or venture out into the quaint surrounding town, National Park, and HOT SPRINGS! You won’t regret a visit to Villa Anita :)"

"One of the coolest places I’ve ever been! The hosts are absolutely wonderful and made us feel so welcome. The desert scenery and the property itself are so amazingly breathtaking. The rooms were clean and quirky in the best way. I was fortunate enough to stay in the Bottle Room and Birds Nest which were so cozy and cool, I wish I could live in them forever! Villa Anita is a once in a life time experience that you CANNOT MISS!"
