We waited to see if the property management company would respond to our issues but nothing yet. Issues we had: 1.Pool heat not ready but still charged for it. 2.Pool broken and damaged surface. Rock debris all over the floor of the pool and hot tub. Broken covers on the suction pumps in the pool. The one cover stil intact had a huge warning sign on it saying to make sure not to remove the lid. There were 2 lids missing and clearly broken off. 3.Flagstone falling a part all over. Uneven surfaces and trip hazards everywhere there is flagstone. Part of the bridge is laying in pieces. No one bothered to clean it up. 4.Broken metal rusted pipe sticking out of the ground right by the pool. 8" sticks up. Looks like it was part of a lawn ornament. 5.Owner showed up at the property in the middle of the night(9:30pm) to get a car from the garage. 6.You can only heat the pool or the hot tub. I have heard this is common practice but this is the first house we rented that did not allow both to be heated and we have rented many other pools. 7.Instructions for the pool/hot tub heater were very confusing and accessing the controls was dicey. Trip hazards and messy area. 8.No schedule provided on when service contractors would be coming so random pool contractor and landscapers just showed at the property without warning. We rented this property for the pool and outdoor space and it was very disappointing to see it falling into disrepair. Rest of the house is all good.

A group of six of us came to celebrate three 50th birthdays. The house was perfect for our getaway. Lots of bedrooms and bathrooms for each couple. Outdoor pool area is gorgeous and relaxing. My only suggestion would be a binder of directions on the various appliances, pool, hot tub, etc in the house though communication with our host was amazing!! Overall I would highly recommend a stay at this beautiful home!

We had a great holiday for 5 nights at the Sandflower house! They had the waterfall and hot tub turned on for us when we arrived and it made for a dramatic and fabulous welcome. The house is super comfortable and the yard is very lush. House was clean, comfy beds, kitchen well stocked, and A/C blows ice cold. We spent the majority of our time in the pool and on the patio hanging out on the great outdoor sectional watching the NBA playoffs on the outdoor TV in the evenings. There were some mosquitos out there, so bring some repellent if you want to sit outside for morning coffee or night time swims. Be advised that the outdoor fireplace is not operational (the Expedia description says only the indoor fireplace didn't work), but it was no worries for us because it was hot in the evenings anyway. We were not allowed to park our car in the garage as stated in the description of the home, but there is a giant palo verde tree that provided shade for the whole driveway so it wasn't even an issue. Management was SUPER nice and responded immediately to the few questions we had upon check in. I never felt like we were bothering them...great customer service! The house has 5 coffee makers (!) including a Keurig, so if you drink coffee you're covered! :) The location in Desert Ridge was a great home base and super convenient to explore the rest of the valley. Main intersection of Tatum/Deer Valley had everything: Albertsons, Total Wine, gas station, several restaurants. Enjoy!

This house was beautiful. The location for our family was perfect. The bedrooms were very comfortable, with wonderful white linens. The kitchen was nicely stocked, as were the bathrooms. We left just some small suggestions for the owner, one being a window covering in the master bath. Overall, the house itself was awesome. The only reason I didn't give the property a straight 5 rating was the backyard. The pool, the spa, the golf green, the barbecue area, the outdoor seating, along with the privacy given from the beautiful greenery... was almost the perfect oasis. The pool, unfortunately remained more green than blue for our visit, even after the pool maintenance came by. But, in their defense, it was Spring, and very windy. The wind was blowing leaves, petals, and tree seeds into the pool for 3 days straight. The pool, spa, and decking are all in need on minor repair, as well as the lighting throughout that beautiful yard. OVERALL, it was fantastic, and we do hope to stay there again.
