Great location!
We were visiting family and from the valley. We were so close to Talking Stick to entertain the kids, and to Chandler where our family lives. Straight shot from the 101 to anywhere.

We had an awesome stay at The Modern Cactus! The house is bright, clean, and super comfortable with a great kitchen and bathrooms. The backyard is a nice spot to hang out. The whole place has an amazing vibe, felt safe, and the beds were really comfortable.The location is perfect: close to Old Town Scottsdale and the airport. Plenty of local spots to explore. The WiFi was amazing, which made working remote super easy. I move around a lot for work, and this property truly felt like home, which made me happy and relaxed while getting my stuff done. Out of all the places I’ve stayed, I really enjoyed this one. We’d definitely book again!!

Lovely Scottsdale home!
This was a great stay and so clean! 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, nice private yard with bocce ball and patio table and chairs outside. Remodeled kitchen and living area. Very comfortable and had everything we needed. Washer and dryer in unit was nice as well. Hope to return again next time I'm in town!
