What a lovely property with hosts that anticipated every need. All we had to do was enjoy. An outdoor paradise. Thank you again and would definitely recommend Sonora Chateau to others.
Wonderful place to stay! Very clean and organized. Beds were all comfy. The backyard had everything you needed to relax and enjoy. Would definitely stay here again!
The host was great! Amenities outstanding! We felt the warmth in every detail of this neat, organized, well-supplied paradise home. It was a really memorable vacation!J.E., NY
This place was outstanding... sometimes, when dealing with a property, you're not sure what you'll get. This property exceeded our expectations!! It's not a "walkable" property if you need groceries or want to walk to a restaurant, but it is beautiful. Responses from the owner were instant. I would recommend paying to heat the pool... the pool water was chilly. First-class property. Highly recommend it.
We had booked early to visit my son at ASU and bring along all the grandparents to see him. Upon arrival the house was spotless with a welcome note and a bottle of wine. It was a nice touch after a cross-country flight, so all of us truly appreciated the small details. We were travelling with a few different age groups, so the multiple spaces like the living room, tv area, dining room, outdoor loungers etc.. were perfect. Everyone found the house clean, comfortable, modern, spacious and lovely. The only comments I heard from my group, is they would have liked mirrors in the (2) front guest rooms. Thank you Bart Co!
Overall, the place was very clean and well stocked. Information in the guest book was very informative. Size and amount of TVs were great. Pool and backyard in general were great. Outdoor grill worked and had extra supplies out there. The additional beach towels and sunscreen were very nice. We also enjoyed playing the outdoor games provided. The Kitchen coffee bar was a highlight. Laundry and supplies for that were great. Extra charging stations for peripherals were great. Stocking of key general supplies was very good. Great cooking supplies, including spices as well. Nice organization and labelling for things in the kitchen. Bart was very responsive when we had a issue with the HVAC. Clothing storage in the closets was wonderful. It was also very nice to have garbage and recycling service handle bringing the cans to the curb and returning them after pick-up. Overall, this was one of the better VRBOs we have stayed at, and we will likely return.
We absolutely LOVED this house for our girls trip but would be so great for a family trip as well!!! Great location!!! The home decor was beautiful, cozy and perfect! We loved the private pool and hot tub and entire, amazing outside space!! Great communication from host!! Comfortable beds, beautiful bathrooms, kitchen had everything we needed and then some!! Lots of personal touches that made our trip even better! Can’t say enough great things about this place! Highly recommend staying here!
Truly comfortable home away from home. Fully equipped, more than anticipated - from phone chargers, to toiletries, pool and bath towels, etc.The house was clean, spacious and located near everything but on quiet residential street. Check-in and out was very easy. Property manager responsive. Family of 3 adults needed warm sunshine and some healing swim and spa time and the house and Scottsdale delivered!
Wonderful house and great location! Clean, had everything we needed, and the backyard is heavenly. Beds were probably the most comfortable we’ve slept on in a rental home. We enjoyed our stay
This place has everything you need to have a great time whether its relaxing by the pool or grilling some steaks on the grill. The only negative thing is the water pressure is a little low when taking a shower but that is no reason not to stay here. I would stay here again.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean, organized, thoughtfully stocked with necessities, and in a great location and safe neighborhood. Would stay again!
Wonderful house with incredible pool/backyard. Highly recommend.

Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
I tried 3 times to have VRBO help as the property manager ghosted me for several days on access to use of the garage which ruined my ability to rent an exotic car as I had planned. The host said the hot tub took 20 minutes to warm up it took 70. minimal time is left with a 2 hr max to use it. Then I waited and waited to connect to the local wi fi to turn the tub off and on but I figured out I could control it on the remote connection. I do not recommended.this property and will file a complaint with AZ real estate associaton on the property manager

Response from VrboOwner on 30 Jan 2026
This review is full of blatant lies which I hope are very obvious considering there is 75 reviews prior saying the home is great. We did give Roy access to garage which don't even advertise as available after him lobbing threats and verbal abuse. The hot tub is easily heated and clear instructions in the welcome book that Roy didn't care to read prior to calling to complain. Helped him immediately throughout his stay with anything he needed. I assume that he is the type of person that behaves this way wherever he goes.
Wonderfully updated and organized home! We truly enjoyed our stay and thought the only upgrade would have been to place a TV outdoor under the patio nearer to the pool.
Very nice Property and very clean. The backyard pool and gazebo area is beautiful and very relaxing.
