Step outside to breathtaking panoramic views, an in-ground pool and spa, sunken fire pit, and expansive outdoor lounge areas, making this the ultimate desert oasis. At night, immerse yourself in world-class stargazing, with some of the darkest, clearest skies in Southern California. Featured in **Dwell Magazine**, **Architectural Digest**, & **Zillow Gone Wild**, Bonita Domes has captured global attention as an architectural treasure.
