Oasis In The Desert Near Prestigious Boulders with Heated Pool, all on One Floor

10/10 Excellent

"We love this property. We have stayed here before, and look forward to staying again! The house is very clean, everything works as shown in the listing!"

New Modern Custom Home, Located in Beautiful Carefree, Arizona

10/10 Excellent

"Loved! Michelle was amazing."

5BDR Oasis w/ Waterfall Pool, Hot Tub, Desert View | Desert Cascase by AvantStay

10/10 Excellent

"This is an amazing property! We had a wonderful stay! It was conveniently located to numerous things we didaquarium, butterfly wonderland, Diamondbacks game, day in Sedona, visits to family in Phoenix! Everything was perfect except the sun shades on the back patio didn’t seem to work properly. When the sun was in the late afternoon/evening sky, the shades were up. Otherwise, totally perfect!"

Hampton Inn by Hilton Carefree

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and breakfast was excellent. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Have always stayed at The Boulders when in the area before, but opted for this place instead this time due to a terrible experience at The Boulders last time. Much cleaner, friendlier, and well-supplied than The Boulders (whose major redeeming quality is the spa) and service is impeccable. Love the balconies and Carefree is a nice little town with everything we needed. Will definitely stay again."

Carefree Crest: Jaw Dropping VIEWS, Pool, 2 Casitas, Outdoor Living!

10/10 Excellent

"Our fam takes a vacation to Arizona almost yearly. This property was perfect for my husband and I, our adult children, their significant others and our three lil dogs. The casitas were perfect for privacy. The views were immaculate! I cooked all but one of our meals in and I appreciated all the designated areas to cook and bbq. The outside grilling patio was pretty dusty and needed a good wipe down before I grilled. Also the patio deck was very dirty. I spent a good amount of time washing that down so we could enjoy that in the evenings. I wish the windows weren’t so dirty and full of handprints (by the pool especially) so we could enjoy the views to their full extent. We also found dog poo when we first arrived that we picked up (shame on the dog owners but isn’t that part of property maintenance?) While there the pool guy informed us the pool pump was broken during our stay, it had been an ongoing problem that hadn’t been fixed but it did not affect our stay. I appreciated the home, the location, the amenities so much. There is just a few things that should be a little bit better to match this homes awesomeness! All in all we had an amazing time!"

Cozy Cave Creek/Carefree Condo

10/10 Excellent

"Great condo. Very clean and cozy. Private back patio with cozy seating, comfortable beds, and great location. Perfect for our needs as we come to this area to visit family."

10/10 Excellent

THE PERFECT HOME: THE BEST! Private,Immaculate,Pool/Spa,Views,Easy walk to Town!

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful time at Painted Carefree and are already looking forward to going back! The house was completely private and we enjoyed sitting by the pool and reading several books. Most people think that would be boring, but relaxation is most important to us when going on vacation, so this house fit the bill. Teri was amazing to deal with and added special touches such as a pool float that I requested. When we met with her on the first day, she brought us fresh grapefruit from her trees. What a gift! We are excited to return!"
