Fantastic, clean, comfortable!

I have stayed in a lot of VRBO rentals in the area through the years. This is my favorite. It is incredibly clean, very cute, all of the furniture and the beds are very comfortable. It is well stocked with everything you could possibly need. The pool is great. And the communication with the owner is top notch! I will definitely be returning.

Immaculate home with private pool

My husband and I enjoyed 4 wonderfully relaxing days at this pristine home. The home has fresh, modern cabinetry and decor. The two bathrooms have modern walk-in showers with additional wands providing fantastic water pressure. We enjoyed the large TVs provided in the living room and every bedroom. The private pool and well-manicured backyard was our favorite place to spend many hours. The owner has provided so many thoughtful details: bottled water/ice in the fridge; a separate ice maker; sunscreen, beach towels and sun hats; plenty bath towels, extra blankets, and pillows; battery-operated candles in the faux fireplace in the dining area. We were so very comfortable and will definitely stay here again when we're in the area.

Beautiful home convenient location

This home for perfect for our family's weekend getaway in Phoenix. We had everything we needed and more. The decor was very stylish and even nicer in person. The home was fresh and clean and the beds were very comfortable. The location was convenient for us and my only complaint was that I wish we could have stayed longer. Next time we will!

Absolutely beautiful home!

This house was incredibly nice, the pictures don’t do it justice. I highly recommend this rental for your vacation stay. The entire home inside and out was very clean and comfortable with beautiful furnishings. Beds were unbelievably comfortable! We’ve stayed in several vacation rentals with cheap mattresses and sheets and we were very happy to see that was not the case with this home. Huge backyard, beautiful pool, quiet neighborhood and so close to Downtown Phoenix and Scottsdale. Jay was very nice, communicated promptly and gave great suggestions for places to check out while we were here. We will definitely stay again if we find ourselves in the area again. 10 stars!!!
