• Beautiful home and property

  3/5

  This is a truly beautiful home. It was very clean and the pool and outdoors were gorgeous. The only problem we encountered, which was a big one, was scorpions. When it was one, it was somewhat understandable, but there were about 8 we encountered INSIDE the home. Most seem to have crawled out of the vents in the bathrooms, two were in the eating area. As adults, we can somewhat safely deal with them, but trying to make sure a 3 year old keeps her shoes on was a challenge. And honestly, going to bed at night was not fun. We all checked and double checked everything. It was a pain in the neck. We ran into a neighbor out walking and they asked about our stay and how we liked the area, we asked about scorpions inside the house, and they were surprised. They said if you spray regularly, it's not an issue. They have lived in the immediate area for four years and in that time have only had 2-3 get in around a door. We had 2 per day! The owners/managers need to get on this. If an adult is stung, it's usually not a big deal, but when a child or older adult is stung it can be serious, they need to head to the emergency room. So that really put a damper on things. We have rented homes in AZ many times, this was the first time we ever had scorpions IN the house. As a matter of fact, this was the first time we ever saw any! It was disappointing as I specifically asked if the property was regularly sprayed for scorpions. If this has been an issue in the past, it would have been nice for them to disclose this if they had known. They did have their pest control person come out and spray again while we were gone, but I don't think it did any good, they were still there. The home appears to be about 20 years old or so, they need to have it inspected, sprayed, and some holes and worn spots in the insulation around the doors needs to be replaced.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Florence, the homeowners would like to share this response:
  We are sorry you had some concerns during your stay at Casa Paradiso. We had hoped our quick action helped put your worries at ease.
  - This is a family home, only rented a few months per year. We have had small children throughout our 20 years of owning the house without a scorpion sighting or incident.
  - We have had no sightings or complaints since the interior pest treatment of the house. We also regularly pour bleach down drains to deter visitors.
  - Casa Paradiso is maintained with utmost care. As you can tell from the grounds and the interior, we take pride in our home.
  - Our pest control company has serviced the house for over 20 years with standard monthly desert pest control treatments. Our technician was applying an additional treatment within 10 hours of our text once we received your complaint. Keeping doors closed helps to ensure pests stay outside.
  We have had several bookings since your visit, and there have been no sightings of scorpions. We are confident that future guests will continue to enjoy five-star stays here!

• Fabulous home - Fun for everyone

  5/5

  I almost didn’t post a review cause I want to keep this house for our family to return to again and again. Location was great - about 20 minutes to just about anywhere. The house was spacious and super well- appointed. Great kitchen for cooking too. The backyard is unbelievable- sport court, pool, fire pit, chaise lounges, dining area, and a small orchard. We picked fresh lemons for our drinks! Our teenaged boys didn’t want to explore Arizona — they just wanted to hang out at the house and play in the backyard. Can’t wait to come back.

• Perfect House for a Family Trip

  5/5

  Beautiful house with everything we needed. Only disappointment was the pool heat was more than expected but if a trip to the area returns this would still be the first house I will look to get. Everything was painless for check in and check out and any questions were answered quickly. Pictures do not show how beautiful the house and grounds are and near anything you would need.
