One of the best rentals I’ve stayed at

If I could give this place six stars I would. The property is incredible. I visit my sister in Arizona frequently and typically stay at the Phoenician but this will be my go to future spot for sure. Ross accommodate a late check out and the house has everything we needed. The kids had a blast as did the adults. We will be back! Thanks so very much!

Great stay - perfect backyard

We had a couple of families stay for a week at the Oasis! The backyard was perfect for our active kids. They spent hours on the basketball court, putting green and in the pool/hot tub! Never a bored moment for them! The adults enjoyed the pickle ball court and firepit. It was perfect watching the NCAA tournaments outside by the firepit on the outdoor TV! I appreciate Ross’ attention to us as guests too! Will use them again for our next stay in Phoenix/Scottsdale!

8/10 Good

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Our family group of 16 stayed over the Thanksgiving 2025 weekend and pd 2500 a night. The activity amenities can't be beat! The pool, spa, pickleball/basketball court, putting green, lounge areas, pool table, arcade games in the garage made for many good times!!! The heated pool allowed for hours of comfortable swim time. As for the above this rental is superb. Also beds are comfy memory foam and the house and bedding was very clean. The sleeping arrangements are where things get frustrating and disappointing. Though the house claims to sleep 16, it only does so by putting 8 in ONE room. Worse, those 8 must sleep in queen over queen bunk beds!Some of our needs were not prepared for in advance, such as the number of bath towels needed for 16 but this was remedied by the cleaning crew day 1. Also, the pickle ball net was broken but Amazon delivered bungee cords so we could fix it. Most of the basketballs were flat and the pump provided did not work. We had requested a waffle iron but it didn't arrive in time. Other fixes needed:The great room TV does not connect to the internet.The safety outlets in every room will not hold charging plugs Left master sink is clogged.Wash cloths are not provided.There was no dish soap in the kitchen.
