Shipping container holiday rentals in La Joya

Amazing and unique property in charming Marfa. We loved seeing the story of the container home laid out in a shareable booklet on the coffee table. The house was extremely functional in its layout. We outran and hunkered down through a dust storm and we felt very cozy here throughout the duration. Amazing landscapes from all 360 degrees to wake up to. The host(s) were great communicators and we feel very blessed to have been able to snag a long weekend here.

Great little place to stay for two. Perfect for our hiking trip and seclusion when we wanted it, so quite and peaceful.

We were looking for a place close enough to walk to coffee, groceries, and restaurants, but far enough away from the noise of the Main Street in La Ventana, and this was perfect. The house sits up on the hill so sunrises are gorgeous and the neighborhood is quiet. The house had everything we needed, including a vitamix! Our favorite part of the property is the backyard oasis which was shaded so very comfortable even in the heat of the day. We were in La Ventana for wind sports and found the location ideal because we were an easy drive to Rasta or La Tuna beaches in one direction, and equally easy drive to Playa Central in the other. Another bonus to the location - it's right up the hill from the farmers market! We plan to stay here again.

Always a great stay; I love these container homes so much!

A little difficult to find but the instructions made it way easier! Such a beautiful wonderful place! Already want to go back!!!

as always, I felt at home. Great rest. love that mattress!!!!

Very nice and cozy place, a little confusing to get to but they are all very friendly, recommended

Loved our stay at Fossil Knob Ridge. Super cool space with gorgeous views of the surrounding landscape. Plenty of space for 3-4 people. Had a lovely patio perfect for stargazing. Tucked into Terlingua, so you're close to all the great things in the Ghost Town and Study Butte is just a short drive down the road. Kitchen is well stocked with all the necessities. Beds were super comfortable. Had plenty of linens, towels, blankets, etc. for a comfortable stay. Don't ignore the host's recommendation to have a high-clearance vehicle. As with many access roads in Terlingua and Big Bend NP, the drive from Starlight Theater to the Fossil Knob Ridge cabins is not paved and can be tough to navigate with a low car. Highly recommend staying here! We had the best time and can't wait to go back.

We had the most amazing week at the chic Surf Shack! It’s a fabulous location right at Cerritos Beach, but feels super private since it’s set back and surrounded by desert. It has everything you need for simple living. Perfect for a single surfer or a couple looking to camp at the beach. The highlight was the outdoor shower and working from the upstairs deck with an ocean breeze. Expect to get attention. This place is stunning and catches the eye of everyone driving by.

We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb, located just 30 minutes from the Big Bend entrance. The location was absolutely perfect—peaceful, private, and surrounded by the beauty of the desert. It felt like the perfect escape from the noise and distractions of everyday life. The space itself was very cozy and comfortable, making it easy to relax and unwind after a day of exploring. We loved how quiet and serene the area was, and the clear night skies were a highlight. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway near Big Bend!

We very much enjoyed our stay. We stayed 3 nights. It was a good location with beautiful scenery. There is a train track 75 ft from the residence but there were not that many trains that came through, 1 or 2 per day but they were short and quite and usually there were not any after 8pm with the exception of one night. Jill was very thoughtful and texted helpful information on the app. There were lots of wildlife in the area with endangered scale quail within walking distance from the residence. Would stay again.

Highly recommended accommodation, comfortable and well located. Benjamin is very attentive and supports everything.

So, it all started with me booking the wrong dates, but Andrea was quick to my request to change them. Awesome communication! Now make sure you get it- this place is remote! It’s all the way at the border with a literal Mexican ghost town across the river. The surroundings are breathtaking. It’s exactly what I was looking for- dark sky was incredible. Accommodations are simple yet functional. I wasn’t expecting anything else. Andrea and her son can assist with paddle trips as well if interested. Overall- 5 Stars!! Not for luxury but for coms, scenic beauty and Breathtaking surroundings.

Peaceful desert experience under the night’s sky. Quiet, clean, within an hour of the park, and about 35 minutes from the restaurants/shopping in Terlingua. The outdoor fire pit is a wonderful spot. Four chairs, lots of wood available, and materials to cook over the open flame. Be mindful that water conservation is critical here. The shower was nice and warm, but don’t expect to have a spa experience (water will run out and take a bit to “refill”). This is a very small space. We had 4 adults, and you should plan on living out of your luggage. There are storage shelves in the rooms, which are very helpful. Energy use should also be limited. Don’t run too many appliances at once. (Pro tip: turn AC off while cooking, or wait to use the microwave until you’re done using the stove top).

I enjoyed staying at the property. It didn’t feel like a shipping container inside. It’s like a fully furnished home and very spacious inside. It’s less than a 10-minute drive to Alpine town where you can find a variety of restaurants. The location is also close to Big Bend National Park. Highly recommended.

One of the best airbnbs I’ve ever stayed in!

Lovely stay once again at Adriana's place. Perfect location in Valle, closer to restaurants and wineries. Would highly recommend if traveling in a group and with dogs. I enjoyed staying here before and this time was even better with the new jacuzzi addition! Adriana was very responsive and addressed all my questions immediately. Would definitely come back here again!

I found the stay to be exactly what I needed.

Perfect spot to stay while checking out the national park. Very family friendly and very clean

We loved out stay, it is just like the pictures. The host communicates effectively and was nice enough to have a bottle of wine for our liking🥲. The place is situated really close to the main ride which was awesome. We felt safe and private. We would come back again.

Great home base for exploring Big Bend National Park and Big Bend Ranch State Park. Brianna did a great job making me feel welcomed and setting up the space well despite being off grid - didn't feel like I was staying off grid at all. Brianna is also super helpful with recommendations/advice regarding Big Bend - made my trip much more fun as a result. Would recommend to anyone looking for some peace and quiet out in the desert!

great place to stay (:

Unique place, good location, clean and excellent service

Thank you for a wonderful stay in your beautiful home! It was beautifully decorated and we felt relaxed as soon as we came in. It had everything we needed and more. Would definitely recommend this place and would love to stay again if we are in town.
