We had a great stay at Amangiri Paradise. The house is very well equipped with everything you need. Great location to Phoenix, ASU, North Scottsdale etc. The backyard is very nice with plenty to keep you busy. The management team was very helpful and extremely timely with any questions. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful desert dream
This home is everything you want while on vacation in AZ! Immaculately clean and the rooms are beautifully decorated. We had one SMALL issue with lighting outdoors and the host replied immediately and the problem was fixed that same day. HIGHLY recommend this property!

Family wedding
We were a multigenerational group and needed to stay close to the sanctuary. It was a perfect house, allowing each person to have space and their own bathroom. We enjoyed the beautiful setting, the backyard, and the vibe of the house. Everything was super simple and we would definitely come back. Thank you so much.

Christmas trip 2023
The property is located in an amazing area and the owners did some nice updates. But the house photos should be updated. There is a long list of deferred maintenance that the photos don’t accurately reflect. One of the main reasons we booked the house was the backyard, but the jacuzzi was broken our entire stay, my feet were black after walking around a few hours barefooted, spider on the pillow in master, loose tiles around the pool and the putting green needs to be entirely replaced. Managements communication was limited given the amount of money they received in my opinion. I believe they knew the jacuzzi was broken and failed to provide an accurate update prior to arrival. We had enough time to find another place but apparently the pool maintenance company gave false information. We didn’t see the pool company show up after that initial update (it will be fixed in 2 days) so it leaves you wondering if they just said that so we would get settled in. For the money, it wasn’t worth it, in my opinion.

Christmas Nightmare
No heat upon arrival. 4 hours with 2 handymen. Doing home maintenance on our vacation. Had to buy space heaters from Home Depot. Peeling, dropping paint from dilapidated roof with paint dust and chips, torn, tattered and dirty carpets. Host that laughed at my concerns. No garage door opener. Left as soon as could make other arrangements. Dirty water in hot tub.

Perfect Location
First let me say that the management did a great job. We had a couple glitches that were addressed as promptly as possible. Unfortunately the hot tub stopped working halfway through the stay and couldn’t be fixed in time for us to use it. However we were compensated for that, which we appreciated.
The house and property were perfect and fit our needs like they were made for us. Sitting in the hot tub (before it stopped working) was so delightful because you get a majestic view of the mountain, such a treat. The property is totally private and even though the property is located on a bit of a busy street, you would never know it. We truly never heard it since the house is set back.
My family also enjoyed playing corn hole, table tennis, using the putting green and swimming in the pool. Like being at our own private resort.
The house is laid out so the heart of it is the kitchen and great room which worked for us beautifully. All the bathrooms were tastefully updated and the bedrooms were comfortable with cozy beds.
If the opportunity presented itself again, we would absolutely want to stay here again!

Camelback Perfection
We have stayed at many VRBO homes over the years and my family and I have always enjoyed them all tremendously. But the Amangiri Camelback Mountain Retreat exceeded our expectations.
Rebekah the host was extremely friendly and helpful from the time we booked the house until the moment we departed. The house was beautiful, the rooms perfect, the backyard and pool were gorgeous.
We loved every minute of it!
I'd encourage you to also stay at this beautiful oasis!
