Great location in Gilbert!

This house was a great property in a great location in Gilbert, AZ. We had everything we needed here to make ourselves at home and we enjoyed our stay! It was a perfect location as we needed to access the airport which was just minutes away and we were close to many fun things to do! We would definitely recommend this property!

Perfect Home for a Family Visit

Everything was fantastic! The house was clean, beautifully decorated, and had all we needed for a one week stay. We spent a lot of time in the lovely backyard patio area. Check in was easy and the owner was nice to deal with. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again.

Soccer tournament family trip

The house was clean, very nicely remodeled in a cute neighborhood in a location close to what we needed for my daughter’s soccer tournament in Mesa. The owners were responsive when the internet code needed updating. Highly recommend staying here.

Exactly As Expected

Great house and location. House had everything you needed including laundry supplies. Nice property and the house had a great layout with new upgrades. Only thing missing for us adults would have been some loungers in the backyard for lounging by the pool but all the pool toys were there. Would stay there again. A+

February Stay

Our stay was great! The house was clean, but some of the dishes needed cleaning before use. The house was roomy enough for 5 adults and 1 child. We had the pool heated, and it was a great way to spend our winter getaway! We did arrive after our check in time and there were some people working in the house. They were able to cleanup and leave shortly after our arrival. Overall we wild definitely stay here again!

Baseball tournament

The home is clean and decorated beautifully. We were in town for my son’s baseball tournament that was held between Mesa, Chandler and Gilbert, so this was a central location for that. The neighborhood was great with a ton of parks with basketball courts for the kids and tree lined streets for walks or runs. We also went to a few Spring Training games, with the closest being Sloan field in Mesa that is home to the Cubs. There are a ton of restaurants near by and downtown Gilbert is close by as well. We did choose to get the pool heated which was a great option. All the other families we were traveling with said the pools in their rentals were not heated and the pools were too cold to swim in. The hosts were very pleasant as well.

Beautifully designed home

The home was easy to find and easier to check in. Everything was beautiful and spacious, we enjoyed most of our time there. The beds were comfy and so was the couch, the master bathroom shower was nice too. Some little things to notice but weren’t the end of the world was that in the week we stayed we ran out of toilet paper and trash bags so had to buy more. My group booked here specially for the pool and were excited to use it however it was pretty dirty, seemed a bit unkept but we weren’t sure if that was due to the winds the day before, however on our last day before check out we were shocked to see strangers in the backyard that we were not notified of. We shortly realized they were pool cleaners and let them do their job, however it did make us a bit uncomfortable and if I wasn’t with my partner I am not sure how I’d have felt. Other than that, it was a nice home and in a safe area.
