Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy yesterday announced that RESET Hotel in Twentynine Palms, California, has joined its curated portfolio of nature-immersed, design-forward accommodations. The sustainably designed property marks the first new brand to join the collection since its launch in September 2025.
Located on 180 acres of high desert landscape just minutes from the north entrance of Joshua Tree National Park, RESET is the first hotel built from the ground up in Twentynine Palms in more than 15 years. The 65-room property is designed to blur the lines between indoors and out, with natural textures, expansive desert views, and private patios complete with Solo Stove fire pits, daybeds, and stargazing platforms in every guest room. Throughout the property, architecture intentionally recedes into the surrounding environment, creating space for guests to slow down, disconnect from distraction, and reconnect with nature.
“Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy was created for travelers who want to immerse themselves in nature without giving up the comforts that make a stay feel effortless, and RESET strikes that balance perfectly,” said Diana Plazas-Trowbridge, Chief Lodging Product & Services Officer, U.S. & Canada, Marriott International. “With its incredible access to Joshua Tree, thoughtful design, and experiences that help guests connect more deeply with the destination, RESET is exactly the kind of property we envisioned welcoming into the collection. We’re thrilled to bring it into the Marriott Bonvoy family.”
At RESET, guests can explore the property’s desert preserve, unwind on private patios and in outdoor soaking tubs, gather around communal fire pits, and enjoy wellness-focused amenities including a saltwater pool, jacuzzi, a sauna and cold plunge. Evenings at RESET welcome some of Southern California’s darkest skies, brought closer to earth through immersive stargazing programming featuring Celestron telescopes. The hotel has also cultivated partnerships and experiences – from astronomy events led by former NASA/JPL astronomers to creative residencies and design-focused programming – that further immerse guests in the sought-after Joshua Tree destination.
“RESET was created to offer a more thoughtful way to experience the desert, one that brings guests closer to the landscape without competing with it,” said Shannon Ching, Co-founder of RESET. “Joining Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy gives us the opportunity to introduce that experience to a broader global audience while preserving the independent vision and sense of place that define the hotel.”
RESET joins Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy alongside the founding portfolio of Postcard Cabins and Trailborn properties, marking one of the collection’s first new additions since its launch and helping expand Marriott Bonvoy’s presence in outdoor hospitality.
