Perfect Winter Get Away

Home-location was perfect for our stay! Easy access the 202 Loop making it easy to get anywhere! Host-Jaime was extremely responsive to any questions we had. It was wonderful having a heated pool! The nights can still get a bit nippy- having the pool and hot tub allowed for enjoyable swims day and night! Our extended family joined us for a bit-very suitable for grandchildren! Would not hesitate to return.

Warm Relaxing Stay

The house was a perfect way to enjoy a break from winter in the Arizona sunshine. The house was comfortable and we enjoyed the warm pool and hot tub in the back yard. The kitchen had everything we needed including an outdoor grill. The house is near the 202, which made it easy to get around Phoenix, including some of the spring training parks. Communication with the owner was easy.

Winter warm ip

Jamie was extremely easy to work with. The house was very clean and well stocked, she Even got us a new container of coffee so we could wake up our first day there and not have to run to the store for our morning coffee. The pool and the hot tub were utilized almost every day. The neighborhood has peaceful and very safe. I went on several walks and was never disappointed with the view and never felt unsafe. Great vacation can’t wait to go back someday.

Family Birthdays

The location of the house was excellent! Our family members live in the area, which was a plus. We had a birthday celebration for my 80 year old husband and our 11 year old great grand daughter! The house is near all of the stores that we needed to shop for party supplies. However, we realized that we forgot to get an ice cream scooper. Then we found one in the kitchen drawer. The house is very well stocked. The host was extremely responsive and provided great information! I would definitely work with our host, Jamie again!

Spring Break 2023

We stayed here for Spring Break with our adult children. There was something for everyone. Relaxing was on my list and I definitely did that. My kids kept up their fitness needs by riding bike to the park to play tennis. Plus, we were near golf courses for the guys to play, while us ladies relaxed by the pool. Highly recommend! Our host was always just a message away if we needed anything!! Can’t wait to stay again when the need arises.

Extending the summer

We planned our trip to Phoenix to enjoy warmer weather than we normally experience in November at home. With this in mind we rented a property with a pool. The weather turned out to be cooler than we anticipated but this property was perfect for us because in addition to the pool we enjoyed the hot tub and the fire pit.

We loved it! Would highly recommend!

Our group of 5 had a great time enjoying the sunshine poolside. All beds were very comfortable, the large sofa in the living room was perfect for watching the Superbowl, the kitchen was well stocked with cooking and baking ware, and the hot tub was an added bonus for the night. The location was also close to a grocery store, coffee shops and hiking. Our group cannot wait to come back,we truly feel like this was not just the perfect stay but our host also made check in easy, and was available for quick questions.

Minnesota’s in the Desert

LOVE. LOVE. LOVE. We couldn’t have been more happy with our VRBO selection. Jamie was incredible with communication and very patient with me and all of my questions. This was our first VRBO rental and I don’t think we’ll ever go back to a hotel room again. Property is accurately described and is very private. The pool was magnificent. So incredibly clean and warm! We swam everyday! THANK YOU JAMIE for a wonderful family vacation and for all the memories we made!

Relaxing stay

My family of five spent a week here in March. The home is in a quiet neighborhood 15-20 minutes from the airport. The living room was comfortable as were the bedrooms. The kitchen has everything you will need to cook. There's also a grill on the patio. We ate our meals on the table out by the pool until later in the week when it unfortunately got too cold in the evening for that. We spent much of our time sitting in the sun in the back. It quiet and comfortable back there with plenty of sun. The pool was great. It heats up to a really nice temperature so it was not like some other places we've been to where the pool was frigid. My son and wife used the bikes in the garage a couple times to explore the area. There are plenty of nearby restaurants to order from and the grocery store is just a few blocks away. Communication with Jamie was excellent. She really made sure that everything went great. She even went above and beyond the first day. We got delayed at the airport and then were stuck a really long time at the rental car center. We had ordered groceries for delivery and thought we had budgeted plenty of time, but with the delays we got a notification that our groceries were delivered while we were still in line for our car. Jamie and I had been texting and when she heard our groceries were sitting outside, she drove over to the house to bring them in and put them in the fridge. That was much appreciated. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and I'd highly recommend this house.

We absolutely loved our stay at Casita del Sol. The home was cozy, clean and stocked in a way that made it feel like home. Jamie was an awesome host. She was easy to work with and worked to make sure things were lovely for us. Which they absolutely were. The pool and hot tub are amazing! The home felt private yet was centrally located to most anything we needed. We had fun with the kids playing tennis at the park just up the street with the racquets she has at the house for guests. She even picked up a football especially for my son! So sweet. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and will be back soon!

About the host

Hosted by Jamie H.

Hi, everyone! I initially purchased this beautiful home in sunny, warm Phoenix to escape from the cold, dirty New York winters! At the time, I decided to offer up my home for vacation rentals to bring in some extra income (hey, every little bit helps, right?). I've since relocated to Phoenix permanently and live here in town.

Why they chose this property

In April 2013 when I traveled to Phoenix to look for homes, the realtor drove us all around the different neighborhoods in the Phoenix area. NOTHING compared to the magic and beauty of Ahwatukee Foothills. There are desert mountains everywhere you look, beautiful palm trees and cacti - Ahwatukee is truly an art of nature. You must see this place for yourself. Ahwatukee was voted one of the top ten places to live in 2002 and 2018.

What makes this property unique

Super Private, no neighbors behind you and only single levels on each side. Outstanding neighborhood that is family friendly with tons of restaurants, golf courses and countless hiking and biking trails.
