About this house rental
Avifauna Vacation Rental
TPT #21417690 / Scottsdale Registration #: 2023747
This 7-bedroom, 4-bathroom estate located in the heart of the North Scottsdale desert is as close as it gets to resort living. Inside, just shy of 6,000 sq. ft., you'll enjoy clean monochrome high-end details, with every amenity one could desire from a vacation rental. Meanwhile outside the desert sky will be painted gorgeous colors on this desert-scape resort.
Head outside to the all-ages fun-filled resort-like pool, and entertainment area. Enjoy taking a dip in the large private pool, which is a perfect place to relax and cool off from the desert sun. Complete with a waterslide, it is sure to be a popular feature for any little ones that came along for the ride. Plenty of both covered and sun-drenched lounge seating can be found dotting the yard and making for an ideal spot to soak up some rays and truly enjoy the warmth of the desert. Grounds audio will immerse you in your favorite music from yesterday and today, while the pool features summer sails for both sun and shade enjoyment. Soak in the sun on a poolside lounge chair or catch the game while grilling up your favorite grub. When it begins to cool down, or after coming home from some exciting activity, make sure to relax and allow the jets from the hot tub to massage your muscles and rejuvenate you for the next adventure. Youngsters will be kept fully entertained between the jungle gym, trampoline, and water slide. All in all, you truly cannot get much closer to resort living than the extravagant Avifauna.
With an abundance of open space, and with its impressive 12' high ceilings throughout you will find that not only is Avifauna extravagant and grand, but also feels spacious, and at no point will you and your guests feel crowded. In this huge kitchen, formal living, and entertainment area you have breathtaking views of the outside grounds, landscape, and scenery. As you explore the interior you will find a lovely sitting area complete with a leather couch and chairs, plus a large flat screen making it a great place to relax and unwind from the day. The formal dining room boasts ample overflow seating, as well with its dark wooden nature, you will find that it perfectly matches the modern nature of the rest of the home. That, along with a bar-style eatery and an eating cove next to the kitchen, provides a gathering space for all to enjoy some delicious food. The kitchen itself is quite the sight featuring wooden cabinets, gas burning stove, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and all the space one needs to spread out and truly create a feast for all to enjoy and admire.
If you continue exploring, you'll discover another living area near the front door. This is the favorite spot of any readers in your group, featuring comfortable couches in front of the fireplace. However, we are just getting started as you'll also find a full-on movie room that features comfortable seating as well as an extremely large television perfect for those all-necessary binges. You'll even find a game room complete with a pool table, television, and old-school arcade machines! While the little ones are sure to love this perk, you just might find that even the adults are fighting for the next play on Galaga.
Truly, every inch of this residence is designed for fun whether you are inside or outside. Whether you are enjoying the outdoors in the pool, or perhaps taking some time to cool down inside by catching a movie in the theater, shooting pool or testing your skills on one of the totally fun arcade games in the game room, you will find that Avifauna is the place to be if entertainment and luxury are what you are after.
So, get together here at Avifauna to experience what Arizona is all about.

Wonderful property for a large family gathering. We enjoyed the pool, theater, barbecue, yard, and large back veranda. The main area and most bedrooms had adequate air conditioning, but some of the rooms didn’t get very cool till late at night. It might be a minor fix, we just tolerated it. Overall very satisfied with our stay!

The house was great in all ways! We hung around the house a lot and had no need to travel around.

This property is gorgeous - it’s big so you can spread out, it has a pool and spa and a game room! The entire booking process was a breeze! The only problem - the internet sucks so badly that the movie room was unusable and we could only have 1 tv going at a time. If you want to eat at the house, you also need to bring everything - napkins, paper towels, salt and pepper. Other than that, it was great!

Really liked the home inside and out. However we were charged an additional grand to heat the pool and hot tub. When we arrived the pool was too cold to swim in and the hot tub was lukewarm at best. We tried to turn up the settings but the system only kept saying that it was heating. The water temp never changed. On the 3rd day of the stay we brought the issues to the property manager's attention via email. Was emailed back (promptly) that everything was working as far as they could tell. A pool contractor just happened to stop by to clean the pool so we asked them to look at the heater. The heater was turned off!!! We brought this to the attention of the property management company asking for a refund on being charged for heating the pool/hot tub and was only offered a disrespectful amount in return. Don't plan on being able to use the pool or hot tub on this property, even if you are willing to pay the extra fee for it.

Overall property was perfect with respect to location, size, sleeping/beds, space and accommodations. Unfortunately, the media / theater room (one of the "selling points" of the property) did not work; the A/V did not function. The microwave did not work. The spa would only tolerate 2-3 uses per day (family of 18) and stopped functioning (heating). Limited hand towels (2 total) for kitchen use. The property management company was VERY responsive; handyman came on day one to attempt to fix microwave and theatre room A/V to no avail. We were supplied with a second counter top microwave (extremely helpful) but there was no fix to the theater room so that was a dissapointment (no family / kid time for movies). The home is quite impressive and I would still recommend for large family/friends gatherings assuming the owners get the issues fixed. Overall somewhat disappointed but managed to make the best of it - it was the Holidays so ... perspective.

We really enjoyed the house and the beautiful setting. We had a bit of an issue with the pool and spa heat. Other than that it was a very nice stay!

All was exactly as expected. Only issue was getting hot tub and pool going. Never could get the property manager to figure it out.

Great place... but not ready when we arrived
We have many good things to say about this property and enjoyed our stay, but it got off to a rough start. When we arrived, we discovered that the property had not been cleaned after the prior guests - food and drink out on the counters and in the refrigerator, all the beds slept in and unmade, all the towels dirty/used, used toiletries in the bathroom, etc. It was a shock to come into the house and see its condition. On the positive side, the property manager was responsive, apologetic, and arranged for a cleaning crew to come right away. We left the property for several hours and found a place to wait while cleaning took place. After the manager messaged that the property was ready, we returned to find everything in good order. The manager offered to make it up to us - suggesting a pizza party or perhaps some wine. Our group was not interested in either. I suggested that a fair offer would be a refund of the value of the 5 hours that we could not move into the house (i.e., 5/24 of the daily rate), and received no further response or communication. Disappointing.
Setting aside this rough start, I will say that the house has many useful spaces - theater, game room, large living spaces, multiple dining tables - and was easily able to accommodate our group (18 people - 3 families with teenage/adult children). The kitchen was large, well laid out, and well appointed (pots, pans, silverware, dishes, glassware, cooking utensils, spices, etc.). I found our bed to be comfortable and heard no complaints from others.
Our stay in late December/early January meant cooler weather. It would have been nice if the we could have gotten the outdoor propane heaters to function, but we were unable to get them working. Nonetheless, we were able to enjoy the ping pong table. We paid for the pool and spa to be heated, and the group enjoyed using both. Unfortunately, the rough start was disappointing. It took a day or two to get past the condition we found the house when we arrived and not be put off from using the kitchen/bathrooms or getting into bed.
The surrounding area is beautiful. For us, the quiet location was perfect, yet, it was close enough for what we needed. It was a short drive to a CVS or supermarket, perhaps a 10 minute drive to a number of different commercial and retail areas, maybe 30 minutes to the airport. If we return to the Scottsdale area, we would consider staying at this property again.
