I do not want to leave a good review because I don’t want anyone else to book this place in case I want to come back I want it available…..hahahahaha. We have stayed here 2 years in a row now. We absolutely love this house & owner. The place is immaculate. The pool is so refreshing. If we are ever back in Scottsdale we will def try to stay here again. Would give 10 stars.

Quiet Vacation

We had a great relaxing stay. The property was close to things to do and it was in a peaceful neighborhood. I felt safe the whole time we were there. Edith was super quick to respond when we had questions. The casita felt really private, and even with the owners living on property, we never felt crowded at all! I'd definitely stay here again next time we're in the Phoenix area.

Phoenix stay

The ladies were vague but helpful. The apartment was clean & as advertised. The pool was not exclusive use, we couldn’t get to the main steps due to barriers for 3 dogs The washing/drying facilities not in the apartment but through 4 gates outside You needed to ring bells so the dogs could be locked in !! The dogs overall were the biggest problem for us

Lovely place to stay!

The property was great. Any issues were so minor they aren't worth mentioning. Owner is kind. Yappy little dogs were entertaining... but the owner kept them in the house or always under supervision. We do wish the pool had been heated but that isn't something done in this area we were told. All in all, it was a great get-away from snow and cold.

DON'T stay here!

This place is a dump. NOTHING like the description. The host entered the rental WHILE WE WERE not clothed without our permission after we complained to VRBO about the lack of cleanliness. We found black hair all over the floor. A strange film on the floor and overall lack of care.VERY close to the airport and a major roadway, it is VERY noisy. They have dogs that bite and signs in the yard to warn you.Did I mention how the host entered the unit WHILE WE WERE INSIDE WITHOUT our permission . We left that day.What an absolutely HORRIBLE experienceThere is also ANOTHER rental unit on the other side of the house, so be prepared to bump into them if you need to use the laundry room (also very dirty)the host didn't even know how long we were staying the pool is NOT heatedand the host told us we could get electrocuted if we tried to use the hot tub.I wish I could attach pics of the filth and the police report # by the Phoenix police (rental is NOT in Scottsdale)absolutely ruined our vacationwhen we tried to get a refund of cleaning fee that is when all the crazy with the host started.Now we are trying to get a FULL refund since the insane host entered the unit without our permission and would not leave until we called 911so far, the host is lying and we r still going back n forth with VRBOI cannot believe we had to go thru this!

Nice Scottsdale Rental

We had a good time at this rental. Mostly we hung out at the pool during the day. It was pretty quiet, which was nice. The pool area is shared between this rental, the owner and her 3 dogs (well-behaved), and an additional rental unit attached to the opposite side of the house. We overlapped with other renters for a few days, but we didn't see much of them. Highlights: Beautiful pool and patio areas, amazing shower, comfortable bed, easy check-in, great communication, close to a lot of good restaurants, had what we needed to cook our breakfasts and lunches. Thanks for the nice vacation! :)

Not as clean as 1st time stay

We found dirty clothes in one of the drawers when we went to put our clothes away. Pool wasn't very clean. Yard is cluttered around the pool. Lattice not attached to fence. The A/C wasn't working very well. Felt hot inside. We left 2 days early, our concert was canceled and we weren't very comfortable in the place.

This property was convenient for my husband and I to visit our daughter who lives near by. It’s close to Kierland Commons and Scottsdale Quarter, both have good restaurants and shopping. Parking and access was easy. There is a good sized kitchen with a full sized fridge. We had our privacy with no issues.
