About this property

New & Private, Central Location, Pet Friendly

This newly-built modern guesthouse is made for an AZ experience. Open the double French doors and enjoy some indoor/outdoor living.

It's in mid-town; close to all Phoenix has to offer, but tucked away in a neighborhood at the back of a property so you'll have your refuge and privacy.

Even though it's a guesthouse, the fence is designed to give you a private experience.

Encanto Area

We enjoyed this well appointed casita near the Central PHX area. It had easy accessibility to downtown sights and services. It was nicely furnished and had most of the amenities of home. It was very neat and clean, and had a pleasant outdoor space. The photos were very true to the actual facility.

Property is newly remodeled, nicely equipped, very comfortable this time of year and easy to get to places. The neighborhood was quiet and we definitely felt comfortable walking our dog around the area. Erin was easy to communicate with about things. Great trip, nice home away from home.

Adorable little house

The only negative was that the door combo was programmed wrong and we couldn’t get in at all the first night. Messages were left and phone call was made but since we arrived very late after midnight there was no response and so we had to stay at another place night one. Other than this it was a delightful place with beautifully stocked kitchen and bath and it was a nice safe and quiet neighborhood.

Great Thanksgiving Stay

My family really enjoyed our stay here! Very cute, well decorated, spotless casita. Location in quiet neighborhood close to downtown. Felt very private even though to neighbors. We had no problems with noise. Kitchen is large and has nice center island. Only disappointment to me, as a home cook, was not having an oven and only 2 burner cooktop. The kitchen does have a small microwave and toaster oven. We definitely recommend this casita.

*Perfect Little Getaway in Phoenix!

Perfectly appointed in Phoenix! The space was cozy and beautifully decorated, making it the perfect retreat after a day of exploring. The location was pretty good—close to great restaurants (The Giving Tree was our favorite) and attractions, yet tucked away in a cute neighborhood. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. The hosts were friendly, ensured we had a comfortable stay and were responsive. We highly recommend this cute little spot for anyone visiting Phoenix.

Wonderful stay

I really enjoyed my stay here! The hosts think of every detail and were very helpful in communication. The casita was more than clean, it was also really well designed and decorated. I enjoyed the central location, easy to get everywhere. Also, it felt very private for being a casita. I would highly recommend this spot to others for a night or a longer stay.

Girls Trip Stop

My friend & I were on a girls trip & this was our last stop before heading back home. We booked the place for 3 days & 2 night. When we arrived, there was an issue with parking. There was a vehicle in our designated parking spot. At this point, we found out that the property has two rentals on the same property {basically a front house & then I’m guessing a MIL type house, which is what we rented.}.I contacted the manager &they were able to contact the other guests to move their vehicle. The 2nd night, we had the same issue- but 3 new cars as there were new guests in the front house. We basically had to block one of the cars in because we were two females in a new area & didn’t feel comfortable parking on the street. We weren’t able to reach the manager for a few hours as she was off line. I would recommend making sure that both renters are told about the parking & some home confirm that they have the allowed cars or tell both that the other home is rented so both parties are considerate of keeping the parking open. The only issue that we had, was that you can’t take a shower when the washing machine is on. We adjusted after the first night. I would book the place again though due to the convenience of the location & the property managers communication.

About the host

Hosted by Erin Brinkman

Host profile image
I'm originally from north of Apache Junction (about 40 miles east of Phoenix.) I recommend it for a day trip! The light on the Superstition Mountains and the silhouette of saguaros at sunset is 100% worth the trip.

I've lived abroad and started hosting travelers on a site called Couchsurfing, before Vrbo and Airbnb existed! Traveling and homemaking are near and dear to my heart.

Why they chose this property

My partner and I have been frequenting the restaurants in this neighborhood for several years so we didn't hesitate when the opportunity to have a place here arose. It's been a blessing to become even more familiar with the neighborhood we already felt at home in.

What makes this property unique

Walking into this guesthouse is like a breath of fresh air. We've looked at several properties and the cleanliness and design of this house stands out above the rest.
