Privacy & Solitude, Close to Town
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. We especially liked the backyard: a beautiful pool and landscaping that truly immersed you in the area. We spent our mornings drinking coffee outside, watching the chuckwallas run across the rock face, listening to the buzz of hummingbirds, and entertaining quail that scooted through the foliage. It was peaceful, a far cry from the “packed in” feel of the valley, yet within 30 minutes of the cities. We will be back!

Happiness in the Desert Foothills.
This is a gorgeous home in one of the quietest neighborhoods. The backyard is like being on a tropical island minus the island. It wound up just being my husband, myself and our two Yorkies. We are grateful to be able to bring our canine children to this home with us. Many thanks to the owners. Hope we can return one day. This home spoiled us.

Extraordinary Rental
We were supposed to be in a different rental for the month of March, but that home went up for sale. We really lucked out getting this home as a replacement. From the moment we walked in, you can tell the home is well maintained. Private, quiet location. Experienced no major issues. As others have mentioned, you have to be careful to make sure the refrigerator doors are completely closed.

A true vacation
The spaciousness of the house and all the amenities exceeded my expectations. I usually stay in hotels when I travel and this was my first vrbo experience. It's a little daunting to book a place sight unseen. The landscaping, the quiet and all around beauty was so relaxing. The weather was perfect. A side note; besides all the nature we saw, there were 2 humming birds that were camped out in the cat windchime and the momma would leave and bring food back to the baby..it was so interesting to witness. I will look for this property again when I come to Phoenix as well as other places I travel to quite often. I am pleased that my first experience was such a positive one

Swanky Digs!
The home took our breath away right when we walked in. Everything was above our expectations. The bio on the house said we could request the pool to be heated but didn’t find out until just before the trip that it was not possible- even in the AZ heat a heated pool would have been nice Maybe next time please? We would love love love to come back and stay a little longer :)

Nice Neighborhood, nice home.
The home is spacious and comfortable. There is a Safeway less than 2 miles away. The home was clean and the pool was a nice option for our visit. The back yard sits in the shade for much of the day which is probably a plus in the thick of summer. Pool is not heated which was a small surprise. The house while large is starting to show its wear due to age. Overall the visit was good. We would stay in the home again.

Great stay. Minor details.
Minor detail cleaning like dental floss on the patio and water bottle caps. Dead moths in the corner of the living room with the TV. Would have liked to have known the pool guy was coming I stead of finding a random dude in the yard unannounced.

3/5 star home
Home is spacious but cleanliness could be approved on. Clothing from previous guest was still in the home. Floors, vents, and walls were dirty. Bedding, towels, pillows were not comfortable. Neighborhood was nice and quiet. Enjoyed the morning walks. We have stayed in better VRBO homes I would not choose this home again.

Really did love that property. Unfortunate the house has been rented to people that did not care about the property. I took pictures of the property that had stains in carpet, blinds that did not work or was missing. Supposedly the owners get money for damages or missing things were never fixed or replaced my owners that were paid by clients that did the damages. The door going out to the back had screws in the door strip that stuck out which was very dangerous for children , older or any age. There is mouse poop all over the garage. The digital lock on the front door was very difficult. We treated the property with the correct process and realize it was valuable property. We had a great time by the pool when it started to cool down from the high heat in AZ. We were there for a funeral the our best friends from the military. I still say that we had a great time to have family together.

Liked: Cleanliness, communication
Gorgeous property- management group failing.
Gorgeous home, gorgeous pool. Issues we had: Refrigerator unplugged when we arrived, pool vacuum not working- unable to use for sort of out stay (entire reason we booked this property), not enough pool towels for 4 guests, no spare hand towels to use (there for 4 days, no extra towels provided), no salt, toilet paper like sandpaper, given 1/2 a roll of paper towels for 4 days, no napkins, no salt, no coffee provided, the coffee filters that were given don’t fit the machine causing it to leak- hard to clean up with no supplies provided. We rented a home so we could cook. There’s no Tupperware or ziplocks to store left overs in. When you travel almost 1,000 miles you expect some basics to be provided. Really disappointed in what was available. I’ve rented a few home properties before, never had a problem with not having enough supplies before. Only with this property.

Mother/Daughter Vacay
This is a large home in Ahwatukee. The outside area is beautiful and peaceful. The landscaping needs a little touch up as things are a bit overgrown, but still, this is a paradise. You will see hummingbirds, butterflies, lizards, etc., outside and on the rock wall. The home is comfy and was very clean on arrival. People need to remember that this home is a short-term rental so yes there is some wear and tear. Fridge needs to be replaced or fixed. As mentioned by others the doors do not stay shut. The water dispenser fell off the door the first time we opened it to put away groceries. I did report this to Vacasa. They get back to you quickly with any issues or concerns. You find nice starter packs of hand soap, dish soap and pods, washing machine pods and toilet paper. (*Note the coffee machine takes cone filters.) We did find lots of mouse poop in the garage so opted to park in the driveway. We did bring our own pool toys, since I was told there were none. There was no umbrella to use on the patio area which would be a nice addition. There is a wonderful Baja shelf that with umbrella shade would have been so nice to sit and relax. Again, this home is in a nice, quiet, clean area of Phoenix. A very relaxing home.
