Designer Bobby Berk would make goals come true all the time on Queer Eye. But when it arrived to his own fantasy of proudly owning a dwelling in the desert, he could never justify acquiring yet another residence that he’d only use on situation. That all transformed past calendar year through a stay in Palm Desert. “I believed I must find a house and I should Airbnb it,” Berk tells Advert, and which is particularly what he did.
Berk arrived across a picturesque, Spanish Hacienda–style assets in Palm Desert that he would quickly completely transform into a deluxe oasis for Airbnb friends to enjoy. “I could get the property that I’ve generally needed as a vacation property, but also make cash off of it at the exact time. It justifies receiving an supplemental house,” he says.
Even with the gutting, electrical, plumbing, and roofing updates the residence demanded, Berk embraced the property’s quirkiness when supplying it a present day facial area-lift. “I preferred to preserve as a great deal of the unique pieces of the household as I could, so we kept all of the primary flooring and wooden ceilings,” he says.
His thoughtfully curated household is now stuffed with one of a kind decor any design and style-admirer will take pleasure in, such as household furniture, artwork, and statement pieces from both local artists and other individuals from close to the entire world, handpicked by Berk. He was pretty intentional with the pieces he chose for the house. “I needed it to feel like you were in Tulum or Cabo,” Berk suggests. “I desired you to appear to our resort and feel like you hardly ever truly need to go away.”
Attendees will have entry to the property’s 5,000 sq. feet, seven tailor made-made bedrooms and 8 bathrooms, furthermore its on-site casitas and included balconies—all showcasing contemporary but cozy touches. Berk needs friends to enjoy each and every element of this property. He put in bars, a pool, a jacuzzi, a bocce ball courtroom, point out-of-the-artwork theater space, and yoga and meditation parts for guests to thoroughly immerse on their own in even though thriving in the idyllic, luxurious, desert landscape.
