Description
What happens when your vacation stay becomes part of the adventure? On NBC’s Open House: Outrageous, co-hosts Tim Chantarangsu and Megan Batoon explore three distinctive places to stay, from sculptural desert domes to a historic water tower and a tropical hideaway tucked into the hills of Topanga Valley.
First, head to Sandora Domes (formerly known as Bonita Domes) in Joshua Tree, a desert retreat known for its rounded architecture. These earth built structures offer a different perspective on sustainable design and desert living. The property is now marketed as Sandora Domes, with amenities that include a pool, spa, meditation dome and outdoor kitchen.
Next, make your way to Water Tower House located near Sunset Beach in Seal Beach, California. Constructed in 1892 to supply water to steam locomotives, this beautifully renovated historic structure has been transformed into an extraordinary multilevel luxury residence. With its spiral staircases, secret rooms and lovely upper rotunda that offers panoramic coastal views, this one-of-a-kind home blends an intriguing railway past with distinctive architecture and memorable seaside setting.
Finally, escape into Topanga Canyon at the Pirates of the Caribbean Getaway. This freestanding guest cottage pairs lush tropical landscaping with furnished outdoor decks, a private hot tub and sauna, and an outdoor bathtub and shower. Designed for adults seeking rest and relaxation, it offers a nature-focused retreat nestled in the Santa Monica Mountains.
Overall, from the otherworldly forms of Joshua Tree to the breathtaking beauty of the California coast and the relaxing atmosphere of Topanga, each property brings a different personality to the idea of a getaway. Follow along as Tim and Megan explore these unusual accommodations and decide which escape best suits your style.
So which of these fun getaways would you choose: the desert domes of Joshua Tree, the historic Water Tower House by the beach, or the tropical Pirates of the Caribbean Getaway in Topanga? Let's chat in the comments!
