Merry Swiftmas: The Holidays at Lavender Haze, Phoenix’s Taylor Swift House

Phoenix in late November is sunny and 70-something. Lavender Haze is our Taylor Swift house in Phoenix: every room is an era, every wall is an Easter egg, and the pool is heated. So you can do the holidays the way they should be done. In a swimsuit, holding a plate of leftovers, arguing about which era is the best era.

Agree? Disagree? Shake it off.

Pick your era (who sleeps where is your problem)

  • 1989: king bed, its own Fearless bathroom, Polaroids, seagulls and a sparkle backdrop.

  • Folklore: king bed, a greenery wall, fairy lights and a Cruel Summer neon. Cardigan optional. It's 72 out.

  • Evermore: 2 twins and 2 trundles under a Wildest Dreams horse mural. The kids' room. Or the cousins'.

  • Reputation: queen bed plus full-over-full bunks, newspaper walls, snake art, a Hollywood mirror and a chandelier.

  • Midnights: the hall bath, with starry walls and neon by the mirror. Meet me at midnight on New Year's Eve.

Sleeps 12 across all the eras.

Snow on the Beach (Phoenix edition)

No snow. Just a pool heated to 83–85° October through April and a 102° hot tub in front of the Lover heart wall. Float past the Erazona mural, then nap in the pink cabana. What have we even been doing with our lives. (Pool heat is an add-on. Just ask.)

The Wall of Exes is complete

Every ex, framed. The Lover living room has the album cover wall, a pink guitar and a karaoke machine. New family game: name every ex on the wall before the pie comes out. Loser does dishes.

Matching pajamas are out. Eras outfits are in.

There's a costume closet. Guests keep bringing it up. One bach group called it "the cherry on top." Take this year's family photo in Eras outfits, then trade friendship bracelets by the fire pit. It's a flaw of mine that I think this is a better tradition.

Karma is a stocked fridge

Nobody has to host at their house this year. Thanksgiving dinner fits 8 at the disco-ball dining table inside and 6 more on the patio. Want it easier? We'll stock the fridge before you land, set up a charcuterie board, a margarita bar or mocktails, and s'mores kits for the fire pit.

A group from this fall wrote: "Our only regret is that we really should have stayed longer." Take the note. Holiday weeks at Lavender Haze are booking now.
