Enjoyed everything about the stay; pool, outdoor area, and house were all very clean. Everything we needed was in the kitchen. Location was close to all of the family activities we had planned. Host was responsive and everything went smoothly! Will be staying again when we come back to the Phoenix area!
Three dads on an annual boys spring training baseball trip. Stayed for a week. House location is perfect for ballparks, restaurants, bars. House has everything you need and is very private.Will book this again
The check in and out process was easy, the instructions were clear, and the house had everything we could've asked for. My family stayed for a week and we didn't want to leave! In addition to that, Matthew was very quick to reply to our inquiries.
This has to one of the best rental properties we have stayed at. Well stocked. Kids loved the pool and arcade games. Responsive host. Would stay again.
Spent thanksgiving week with the family here and loved the house. Cooking turkey and fixings was no problem at all. Pool area is great, theater room and game area as well. Mathew is a great host who responded promptly to us. Will stay again for sure!!
We were in Phoenix for college graduation and this was a great spot for the coming and going of our graduate and family visiting from Tucson. We had a great time using the theater space and the hot tub and heated pool, both of which were set at perfect temperatures.
The place perfect. So clean and so many fun things. Lots of little extras like sunscreen and pool toys, toiletries and treats. The best vacation rental ever. Hands down. Highly recommend!!!
Safe and quiet neighborhood, close to airport and all amenities. House is safe for children, additional lock high on the sliding door to pool -peace of mind they cannot wander into the back yard alone. Kids did not want to leave!
Areas for adults to relax after a day of swimming and exploring the region.
This property was perfect for our family. The available crib worked great with the littles. The backyard was peaceful and very relaxing. The location is perfect for Old Town, the zoo, restaurants, etc. We would definitely return to this property in the future.
Best location in Scottsdale, AZ for those wanting an awesome getaway from the same old same old. To answer the important question: Would we do it again? Yes!
Great pool and outdoor environment. Inside had a great arcade setup and cinema room. The main bath was nicely remodeled. Very clean and nicely appointed overall. Excellent communication with the VRBO mgr. One of the only properties I would return to for another stay.
Our family had an amazing time during our first trip to AZ! The property was exactly as shown in the photos, and it was perfectly set-up for both kids and adults alike. The movie theater room, the arcade area and the pool were over-and-above additions that added to our overall experience. Couldn't have asked for more!
We loved it! There were 4 of us and it was everything we needed. The pool and hot tub and backyard were amazing! Media loft was great! Game room got a lot of usage! Easy check in and check out. Great communication and little perks by the manager were much appreciated! Would definitely stay there again! Great location!
The house was great for six of us. The location is a quiet neighborhood that was close to spring training games for the Giants, Aβs, Cubs, Rockies and Diamondbacks.
This may be the best VRBO house we have ever stayed in. Matthew has thought of everything to make your stay in this house as comfortable as possible from a super easy check-in, prompt communication, pristine cleanliness, and over the top amenities (snacks, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, face wash, pool toys, multiple towels, etc). The location is great too- just a few miles from the airport, zoo, butterfly wonderland, museum of illusion, and old town. We also paid extra for the heated pool which was totally worth it (we stayed there in February). What a great vacation, we canβt wait to go back!
Was perfect for an anniversary celebration. A wonderful blend of comfort. class, and fun. The attention to detail was amazing. Matthew thinks of every possible need and a great host. He definitely sets the bar high on VRBO.
The house was immaculately clean, family friendly, and beautiful.
Neighborhood was very safe and quiet.
House had plenty to entertain kids- gorgeous pool w sun shelf and spa, several arcade games, foosball, and a sega and PlayStation gaming console!
Close to Old Town via a quick drive, but not walkable.
Perfect quiet getaway tucked inside a residential neighborhood.
Close to everything.
The host was responsive, friendly, and pleasant. We would happily stay here again !
Came down from Idaho to get out of the cold. The home is beautiful and, more importantly, very clean. The pool and backyard were amazing! Awesome location with quick and easy access to the 101.
Matthew was great with communication and ensuring our comfort. Heβs very organized. We loved how is home is modernized with βAlexaβ commands and convenient QR codes. Good job Matthew!
My wife, teenage daughter, and I had a wonderful stay at this home. The first Marvel and Star Wars arcade games were a blast for downtime. The pool and hot tub were perfectly heated, super clean, and a great respite. The entertainment options were awesome and were very easy to navigate. All accommodations were thoughtful with nice 5-star touches. The neighborhood was quiet and well located to get to activities in Phoenix and Scottsdale. Matthew was a phenomenal host and very responsive to questions. We will definitely consider a return trip to this property or others managed by the same host. I highly recommend this property.
My family of 3 stayed at this property over Christmas & we had the best week! The house was very clean & well appointed. The kitchen is well stocked with pantry staples & a variety of small appliances to meet almost any need.There were plenty of linens, including lots of pool towels. We spent lots of time in the heated pool/spa everyday. The heated pool was the main driving factor for choosing this particular property. This pool got warmer than any other rental house pool weβve had over the last 5 years. There were tons of board games, dvds, & the arcade games were a blast.There were ceiling fans in each bedroom, as well as extra fans in each bedroom closet which we also appreciated.The theatre seating in the loft was so nice that we are looking into getting something similar for our home!The host, Matthew, was incredibly responsive to our questions & a pleasure to work with.I canβt state enough how much we enjoyed our visit. Weβll definitely check availability for any of Matthewβs rental properties for our next visit to Scottsdale!Thanks!
We were very pleased with the amenities, cleanliness and location. The home had everything as promised and Matthew was very accommodating. We would definitely stay at this property again.
Great place to stay. Reservation and communication with the property owner was easy. Property was easy to drive to and pictures were accurate. We would highly recommend this property to any family/ group.
