We enjoyed our stay and would rent again if in the area.
For the property I would recommend going there first before the grocery store. It is fully stocked with paper towels, toilet paper, cooking essentials (olive oil, cooking spray), aluminum foil, plastic wrap, bath and body works hand soap for each bathroom etc. Plenty of bath and pool towels as well. The house itself is very comfortable with a split floor plan, master suite on one side and 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths on the other (1/2 bath inbetween both living rooms) and two HVAC’s. There were 5 of us but it would definitely fit more with no problem. Furniture, appliances and finishes all high end. Backyard is beautiful with desert landscaping and trees and of course the pool.
Location is spot on. Very close to Desert Ridge shopping center, which has Target and many restaurants. I would highly recommend the Breakfast Kitchen Bar for breakfast, brunch, lunch at Desert Ridge. Since the property is located on the north side of Phoenix, Scottsdale and Sedona are easier to get to. Neighborhood is safe, quiet, clean with high end homes and walking trails. A few more restaurants I’d recommend: The Mexicano, The Arrogant Butcher, The Sicilian Butcher, Maria’s (for fry bread).
The hosts, Kim and Stan are amazing. Quick responses via text message or by phone. We didn’t really need much but I’m sure if we did they would be on top of it. Thanks to both of you!!
