Private Resort Community w/3 Heated Pools/Spas -- ½ mile Walk to N. Mtn. Hiking!

Save even more over our already low rates with this, our most affordable 2 bed/2 bath rental for those on a tighter budget or who simply wish to get the most bang for their buck! This is one of our "budget" rentals for travelers who want to save the most on their stay. While it may not feature the newest appliances, furnishings, kitchen utensils, etc. it is still a great value for the price. For those more concerned about those things you may wish to try one of our other properties at a higher price point. However all of our rentals are still priced lower than most here at the resort, as we pride ourselves on offering a tremendous value at our extremely competitive rates.

This is a nicely appointed upper level condo located in the gated Resort Vacation Rentals at Pointe Tapatio Cliffs community within 100 feet of both the Canyon Pool and Sunset Pool, the latter of which can be seen from the balcony. The unit features a full-size patio balcony, accessible from two sets of arcadia doors, overlooking the community. Enjoy the relaxing view of swaying palm trees against a scenic mountain backdrop while you dine outside or sip your morning coffee.

The modern 1100 square foot floor plan places the two bedrooms on opposite sides separated by the living room and can sleep up to four comfortably with a queen and two twin-size beds. The open kitchen & dining area and nine foot ceilings create a feeling of space and openness throughout. The unit features a 46-inch HDTV entertainment system w/1000-watt Blu-Ray 5.1 surround sound, as well as integrated iPod & WiFi connections allowing you access to Netflix, Blockbuster, YouTube & more right from the TV screen as you relax on the ultra comfy L-shaped modular sofa. Optional rentals such as playpen & high chair are also available at an additional charge.

PLEASE UNDERSTAND BEFORE BOOKING: All guests will be contacted and must speak to a representative by telephone up to a week before arrival to establish a rapport, answer any remaining questions and to collect and relay certain details not provided here on Vrbo. This particular property also requires a short one-page contract be signed digitally online. Once the reservation is completely non-refundable, and guest has completed the phone call and returned the signed contract, guest will be provided all necessary details and instructions for their day of arrival. Guest may arrive any time between 4-10 PM but since we must have an agent on site for every check-in, we will need to ask your expected arrival time, and for you to update us with any changes thereafter. -- IMPORTANT: Resort reserves the right to cancel any booking by any guest who is noncompliant or belligerent during communication by phone or text regarding the above procedures which you agree to by booking, even if you fail to read and review all terms and details. If you want a completely "no-contact/no-human-interaction" arrangement or for any reason you object to our policy or any of these requirements we ask you not to book, or to let us know within a 4-hour grace period of booking, and your reservation will be canceled with a full refund of your payment. A full or partial refund may also be possible thereafter according to the cancellation policy provided in our listing, depending on time remaining before the scheduled reservation.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT: We are about one-third to one-half the cost of a room at the Hilton next door, yet offer two to three times the space, including a full kitchen to save on dining out. Guests enjoy three pool & spa complexes open 24/7/365, all with hot tubs, showers, restrooms and grills, and all heated during the winter, so they're always available and swimmable anytime you wish to use them! The resort is surrounded by mountains and is just a 1/2 mile walk to hiking & biking at North Mountain preserve.

Guests will receive a mailbox key upon check-in, so those here for multiple weeks or months may have their USPS mail temporarily forwarded directly to the resort mail huts just a few feet away; UPS and FedEx packages will be delivered directly to your door. Unlike the others here, all of our rentals offer extras such as stereo surround sound, landline telephone service with voicemail, caller ID and unlimited long distance calls to Canada and within the U.S., as well as full-service check-in with a representative to greet you on site and to tend to any needs that may arise. All our properties feature free WiFi and landlines which enable resort gate entry via intercom.

Our short-term rentals are geared toward those who need to stick to a budget compared to a decent hotel room yet would still like to enjoy the additional size and amenities of a complete vacation home as well as the convenient location and private, well-kept environment of a resort community. Starting out at Motel 6 prices, even our highest rates are half the starting rate of a single bedroom and bathroom at the Hilton next door, yet with two to three times the space! We strive to provide a great value to guests, offering both affordable rates and the convenience of a well furnished, decorated and appointed full-size home in a pleasant and private gated community with three 24/7 heated pool & spa complexes at your disposal. We always have someone on site to address your needs. However, at our low rates (starting at $37/nt. for a full home in the summer) we have a very limited staff and there are occasionally missed items or things that may be overlooked or unnoticed, especially when prepping a rental for new guests after stays of several weeks or months. For instance, with all the linens and kitchenware we provide, some guests may put away an item without properly cleaning it. While this is not the norm, it does happen and we do not have the resources to check every single item that has been stored or folded. When this occurs there may be an instance where a subsequent guest may need to rewash it, or there may be a crumb or hair here or there that is impossible to catch during inspection between back-to-back bookings. If you already know you are highly meticulous or very picky about small things such as linens washed in certain fragrant detergents, or an occasional creepy crawler from the desert that finds its way indoors, or a shampoo bottle that is not completely full, etc. we may not be an ideal fit for you and would instead suggest a hotel with a full-time staff at a higher price point. Of course as our reviews reflect, the vast majority of our guests since 2004 have been very appreciative of our low rates which we haven't raised in many years considering all the amenities, pleasant environment and quality of living we offer. We just don't want our higher-end appeal at low-end prices to be mistaken as a guarantee for top-dollar perfection or to set unreasonable expectations and demands. We are perfect for those who won't mind if they encounter some of these incidentals considering what we offer at our lower-end price point. We are dedicated to providing a tremendous value to all financially mindful guests.

POWER USAGE: The first $25/week ($35/week summer) is covered with your rental agreement. Excess power usage will be withheld from the security deposit. Most responsible guests who are not excessive will not exceed this allowance, or if so only by a negligible amount. However, unlimited power usage is still available under our former rate plan for an additional $6/night. Inform management before arrival if you would nevertheless prefer this option.

PLEASE NOTE: Management maintains a presence on site for your convenience and to handle any issues. Any attempt by a guest to accommodate more than the maximum occupancy as previously declared and specified, or to house an undisclosed pet, will result in an additional charge, removal of excess occupants, and/or reservation termination without refund.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned condo, which features a fireplace. There's a private balcony or patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Netflix and a DVD player are provided for your entertainment, while complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected.
Don't miss out on the many recreational opportunities, including a water park, an outdoor pool, and a spa tub. Additional amenities at this condo include complimentary wireless internet access and barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like wireless internet access and onsite parking.

Covid Delayed Holiday in the Valley of the Sun.
Gated community made this property feel secure. Everybody was friendly and the general location made for easy access to everything. Property management was excellent to deal with. They honored our booking 18 months after the fact (US border was closed to Canadians for much of this time). Well done!

The complex is very quiet, nice place to relax. We enjoyed our stay using the pools everyday. Not a lot of good restaurants in the area but you don’t have to drive to far to find one. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Quiet and clean property, well appointed!
Our family of 4 stayed here over spring break. Pools were mostly filled with local retired residents and were warm enough to swim even though the weather didn't pan out as nicely as we hoped. Very quiet! The property was well maintained, and our villa had everything we needed for our stay. The appliances are outdated, but that didn't affect our time. The one improvement they could make is the couch. Its pretty hard and uncomfortable, but thankfully we were on the go most of the time. We appreciated the items available for the pool and courts. I walked to North Mountain and found that to be a great perk! I just wish this were closer to more eateries and coffee shops, had to drive quite a way to get to most places on our visit. Note they do not recycle here, that was disappointing. I would recommend this location and the villa. The rental manager was very helpful and as responsive as he could be, thanks Steve!

Perfect location
We enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect. We really liked that we could just walk to North Mountain and hike. The pool and hot tub were perfect. The water temperature was just right for swimming on hot or cool days. The condo had everything that we needed.
