Tranquil Time Secluded Backyard
Lovely, well kept home with all the amenities. Nicely decorated. Nice back yard and pool area. Big bathrooms each with 2 sinks and lots of vanity space- important to us ladies. Will definitely try to stay there again.

Orchard Cottage, Heated Pool and Hot Tub
This was our second stay at this property. We stayed in a different cottage/casita this time. It’s a lovely property with an in-ground pool, hot tub, outdoor kitchen that is well stocked with food and appliances. She has a couple of outdoor fireplaces and plenty of seating outdoors to sit and visit and enjoy the surroundings. We could help ourselves to oranges off the trees! Both casitas have wonderful showers in them. This is a fun experience!

Billiards/Ping-Pong/Pool/Hot Tub/Fire Pit & More
We enjoyed our stay. Brandon, our host was quick to respond when there was a water issue. They ere friendly and always responded quickly with all of our questions. We would definitely stay there again.

Private Oasis on Acre Lot with Chef's Kitchen
Enjoyed our stay and had a fun golf trip. Great place for a group. Mark was a great host and made checking in and out really easy.

Brand New Hot Tub & Heated Pool, Perfect Location
we visited for our sons 17th birthday, with our kids. we had a great time. For one of the 1st times, I paid for the heated pool and it was actually warm when I arrived. we travel to AirBnb's at least once a month. There were a couple of minor issues we found when we checked in, however, the host was very responsive and was there in the morning to fix. As for the one negative review on this place, I just want to make sure that it is addressed, this home doesn't smell or doesn't have any leaks. Everything was perfect! Thank you again for being so responsive. We had a wonderful time

Desert Haven Oasis: Pools, Putting, BBQ, Tennis
Good location as a base yo run the Black Canyon 100k. Beds were comfortable, kitchen well stocked, bathrooms clean.

Ethan | 4 BR Scottsdale Home w/Pool!
The place was just as described and Cathy was super responsive to all of our needs. The house was very clean and well-stocked with everything we needed. We really enjoyed the heated pool and hot tub, which were also very clean. I would absolutely recommend the place to anyone visiting the Scottsdale area. My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay - thanks Cathy!

Hidden Desert Cave Creek
Sarah's 'Hidden Desert' cottage lives up to its name! Though it wasn't far from anything we needed or wanted (supermarkets, trails, the Musical Instrument Museum). It is set beautifully among the saguaros, with plenty of privacy. We loved having our breakfast on the terrace, while watching the quail and rabbits. The kitchen had everything we needed and the bed was comfortable. We couldn't have asked for a better refuge! We would definitely stay here again.

Great location and Kurt was very responsive. I would definitely stay here again.

Relax & Enjoy the Sun at our Desert Oasis
This is a beautiful home. I was in Goodyear again for work and decided to stay at Josh and Kimberly’s home instead of the typical hotel. The house was clean, comfortable and a pleasant change from a hotel. Minutes from my work, the house was in the perfect location. Within minutes you can be at many great restaurants. Thanks again Josh and Kimberly for letting me stay at your home. It was worth it ! Greg

Old Town Oasis 5 BR Pool/Hot Tub Golf GREAT RATE !
We met at Rob's place for Christmas with my children and grandchidren. The house was exactly as described, clean and comfortable for all of us. The extra family room was a perfect place for the younger kids to gather. The pool was used for a brief dip (we knew it was not heated) and enjoyed the hot tub . Would recommend Rob's place for a larger group.

Cozy Latitude home with pool
We enjoyed our stay at Kristina's home. It is in a great location, quiet neighborhood, and very spacious. We had everything we needed.

Cozy Casita in West Phoenix
Had a good week at Maria’s home. It’s close to great restaurants and many entertainment venues. The neighborhood is very active and can be noisy with loud cars and stereos but the noise did not noticeably continue past 10 pm. This is obviously not something that Maria has control of. I would definitely recommend staying here especially if you plan on being active during your stay.

Comfy & Clean Vacation Home with Amazing Views
Beautiful home in a great location, away from neighbors with its own baby mountain in the backyard.

Scottsdale Bach house w. heated pool
Absolutely loved our stay here. The house is even better than the photos and so well stocked with makeup wipes, lotion, hair tools, etc. The hosts are very responsive and easy to work with. They answered my millions of questions quickly and allowed my friend to check in early. The house is only a quick drive (or Lyft) to old town which was super convenient. The only minor issue we had was troubleshooting the Alexa on the outdoor patio (she had a mind of her own) but that doesn’t take away from the perfect stay we had. I highly recommend staying here and would gladly book again if ever I’m in the area.

5BR3BR downtown phx w/ pool & games
Amazing house! We stayed here for a conference and it was the perfect setting for a large group. The house is within walking distance to the convention center and many restaurants. We loved using the pool, hot tub, and all of the outdoor amenities.

Casa de Palmetto AZ - Private Home with Pool
Shanie and Billy’s place is one of the cleanest and cutest places we’ve stayed! There were clear instructions on everything. They had a binder full of information on the area. We felt right at home and can’t wait to go back in July. We usually visit Fountain Hills once a month and hope that in the future we can stay here more and more. Thank you Shanie and Billy.

House w/ Resort-Like Backyard, Heated Pool & Spa!

Your guide to Phoenix
All About Phoenix
Sun-bathed Phoenix, Arizona’s capital and largest city, rules the Valley of the Sun, a metropolitan region that also includes such bustling regions as college town Tempe and swanky Scottsdale. A former agricultural hub, Phoenix is now the state's economic and cultural lynchpin. The city is home to world-class museums, nearly 200 golf courses, and — thanks to a population that is more than 40 percent Hispanic or Latinx — some of the best Mexican food to be had north of the border. The city also attracts adventurers who want to hike through storybook desert landscapes dotted with cactus and dramatic rock formations, which can be found just outside the city.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Phoenix
This is the desert, and it’s hot. From June through August, it’s not unusual to experience temperatures over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, dipping to 90 and 80 degrees in September and October. November through March bring temperatures in the 60s and 70s with dips into the 40s, and in April and May, things soar back up to 80 and 90 degrees. Overall, the city sees 300 days of sun and very little rain. Pack for hot weather, and don’t forget sunscreen. During winter, bring layers for cooler mornings and evenings.
Top things to do in Phoenix
Camelback Mountain
This mountain earned its name from a pair of peaks that resemble the hump of a camel’s back, and its reputation as a tough but rewarding hike thanks to panoramic views of the Valley of the Sun. There are two trails to take to the 1,420-foot summit, the Cholla Trail and the slightly harder Echo Canyon Trail. Both are challenging, featuring rocky terrain, steep ascents, and some climbing. As you hike, you’ll be surrounded by the colorful pink, orange, and red hues of the sandstone terrain from which saguaro and prickly pear cactus grow. Camelback Mountain is located just twenty minutes’ drive from downtown Phoenix, so you won’t have to wait long after finishing to reward yourself with a snack and a cool drink.
Desert Botanical Garden
Looking for something less taxing than a sweaty mountain hike? Explore more than 50,000 plant displays in this gorgeously landscaped 140-acre botanical garden devoted to desert flora. Thousands of agave and cacti grow here, alongside 485 rare and endangered species. Five themed trails cut through the gardens, which grow against the backdrop of the Papago Buttes, a cluster of striking red rock formations. The garden also hosts musical performances and art installations. Grab a quick bite at the cafe, or enjoy a sit-down meal of farm-to-table fare at the garden restaurant.
Musical Instrument Museum
Strum a Peruvian harp or try your luck at coaxing sci-fi-style wails out of a Theremin at this utterly unique museum showcasing more than 8,000 musical instruments from more than 200 countries. No, you can’t touch everything here, but a highlight for many visitors (especially kids) is the Experience Gallery, where you can bang gongs and thump on massive communal drums. A STEM gallery explores the science of soundwaves and frequency, while the Mechanical Music Gallery showcases player pianos, automatons, and music boxes that play themselves.
