Lux Scottsdale/ Carefree family retreat golf pool

Bring the whole family to this luxurious resort-like Mediterranean retreat! It was built with comfort and elegance in mind with 6 bedroom and 4.5 bathrooms. Sleeps up to 16. Spend your days soaking up the sun by the pool while the kids play in the garage game room, watch movies in the theatre room or play on the playground. There is also a putting green and hot tub.

- NOTE: Your safety matters. This property features a Ring Doorbell device and 5 other exterior security cameras. The cameras do not look into any interior spaces or the pool and hot tub. We have also added the Noiseaware system to the house. This does not listen to your conversations it only the detects the level of noise with decibels.

- NOTE: There is an optional daily pool heat fee of $100 (+ fees & taxes, paid pre-trip, applied to entire stay)

Please note: during the April and May months we have excessive tree ( flower) shedding. We have a bottle brush tree which is gorgeous but drops its flowers during these months. No amount of blowing or cleaning can handle it all. Please expect red flower debris on pool decks, furniture and just spread all over outdoors. It’s actually “pretty clumps of Flowers” but to some may appear messy. Also please take special note of the monsoon season months June -Sept (give or take) and you may see little black beetles or excessive ants even scorpions at times. These are just part of AZ nature and can’t be stopped. The beetles are harmless and die within 24 hours but they can get inside homes very easily. The ants tend to hang around the pool areas and scorpions well they go wherever they want. The beetles and ants are abundant during monsoon season due to the moisture. We do have pest control, but nothing can stop all creatures. Our home being in AZ will never be “perfect” due to the sun and all elements but we try to keep it as perfect as we can for your enjoyment. There will always be birds flying over our patio furniture and wind blowing with some dust outside. It is the desert. (Haha) Thanks for understanding. We also keep a blower in the garage and pool net for in between our weekly vendor cleanings if you arrive and find more debris than you’d like. Typically we have 3 sets of hired hands check the property inside and out right before your arrival to fix anything of nature causing but still, with foliage / birds nearby it can accumulate again within hours. If you arrive and find it in any way out of this shape beyond normal small infractions please let us know within 1 hour of arrival so we can try to rectify the situation. We do take great pride of handling issues as quickly as possible.

Beyond Expectations
The house, pools and amenities were beyond what we expected. My teenage grandchildren very much enjoyed the game room, the pools, golf area, basketball hoops, especially the hoop by the pool. There were 11 of us and we all slept in comfortable large, clean beds. Not being fond of spiders or insects, I was amazed that I never saw any! Having so many to feed, we ate in most of the time and found everything we needed to do so. We all had so much fun and would love to vacation there again.

Once you visit you will not want to ever leave!
The pictures do not do it justice! It was one of the most beautiful homes I have ever seen! Pam was always very personable, friendly and quick to offer guidance for things to do in the area or if I had any questions. Don't let this one pass you by if you have an opportunity to book. The pool area was amazing and relaxing. There were balconies everywhere to enjoy a sunrise or sunset. We went with a family of 6 adults and 3 kids and we had plenty of things to do around the home together. There was also more than enough space for us to enjoy some alone or quiet time. Thank you again Pam for your wonderful hospitality! You made me feel like a "friend" when we communicated. I hope to one day get to see your other beautiful homes.

100% Paradise!
From the second I stepped on property I knew this was going to be the perfect place for our trip! I took 12 friends out to AZ for a golf trip and this place fit our group perfectly! Everything in and around the home is 100% as advertised or better! Throughout the trip we had plans to go out and explore but found ourselves spending all of our free time at the house. The outdoor pool area is out of a movie; as the sun goes down and all off the colorful accent lighting comes up, there is never a shortage of good vibes! There is plenty of living space so we never once felt like we were on top of each other which is huge when you have large group of adults. All of this was plenty for us to have the perfect trip, but we also had the PERFECT host to go along with it. Communication was on point all weekend and she made everything ridiculously easy for us! If I make it back out to AZ there is no way I’ll look anywhere else!
