I couldn't wait to write this review. On a scale of 1-10, this home is off the charts! Everything about it will make you want to book again. The 2/2 interior layout, just large enough for one or two couples (flip for the master bedroom and bath with three shower heads and a sauna), modern vibes throughout...nothing has been spared for the visitor(s). I'm going to leave it to you to discover for yourself why this place consistently gets 10/10 ratings.I've traveled frequently and been in many places where a review was not warranted, only for the exceptional. Make this a must have rental for your trips to the Phoenix, Tempe, Scottsdale visit. You won't regret it.

All as expected. Could use some spare batteries with so many remotes as several required new ones. Would recommend staying here.

Everything was totally great with Angela's wonderful desert retreat, and Angela has been the best host you could wish for. She's always been there whenever needed and very responsive and proactive. The thought that has gone into the details of the home is obvious to see and a pleasure to see and experience. The location is fabulous and all the amenities are great with very very comfortable beds! Thank you Angela, your place is such great value for money!
