Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2007
This is our family enjoying and afternoon of baseball - big SF Giants fans who like to visit AZ for Spring training. I started visiting Arizona while living in Washington State. The long wet winters were only bearable with a trip to a sunny Arizona destination. My parents have retired in Arizona and we like to visit them a few times during the year; thus we bought a vacation condo. This condo is brand new and in N. Scottsdale. We splurged on furniture, bedding, plasma t.v.s - all the comforts of home for your visit. I just updated paint and new tile Sept. 2011. We've replaced AC unit and updated inventory as well.
Why the Owner Chose Kierland
We chose Scottsdale because of the wide range of activities; namely golf, hiking, spring training. This area has a slew of great restaurants, fabulous shopping and is an easy to get to location off of 101. We've had visitors come to sight see - Grand Canyon, Sedona. We've enjoyed meeting many Canadians getting away from the cold winters. It's a perfect snowbird stopover.
The Unique Benefits of this Condo
True to VRBO philosophy you deal one on one with the owner - me! I am happy to answer all your questions about the area. I provide a map of the unit, the grounds, places close by, etc. We are honest and trustworthy and we seek out those that will treat our condo as they would their own. We have several positive reviews posted and many cards and email I don't post - but treasure! This location is ground floor - ample parking. Close to everything! There is a gym - (Gold's) that allows temporary memberships/one day passes. There are two pools at the property. Both quiet and private. The Allison complex is located in a residential neighborhood - easy access to parks and jogging paths.

I have to rate this condo and our stay as excellent, that's why this was our 2nd year there. The area is superb: within walking distance to shopping and dining. But we found that driving to the many great shopping centers, restaurants and golf courses was very easy and convient using the 101 and main avenues. Gina is a great owner to work with and easy to contact via the net. We recommend the condo to anyone who enjoys walking, playing golf and taking advantage of the many "tourist" things available in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area.
Recommended for:Sightseeing, pet owners, adventure seekers.

First of all, Gina, the owner, is really great to work with, professional, flexible, friendly...Wow! I have a small, well behaved Maltese dog that she openly welcomed, as much as she did me. I was impressed with the new paint throughout, new tile, decor, etc. I loved the patio with the table & chairs where I could enjoy a glass of wine in the evening. My stay at the Allsion was absolutely divine. I could not have asked for a better owner (Gina). The beautiful condo will bring me back again!

My husband and I needed a place to stay and "home hunt" after our home in Dallas sold. I knew the general location of this condo for rent. It turned out it was better than we had expected. We were on the ground floor,allowed to bring our beagle,the unit is attractive and fully furnished .Gina had plenty of local information available and common area is beautiful, well maintained and safe. We stayed the whole month of December and loved it.
Owner response:Thank you Sima - glad it worked out for you both and that the entire month was available! Gina

Review Submitted: 04/18/11
My wife and I stayed at the condo the first two weeks of April. It is very convenient to all kinds of shopping and the walks we had each morning around the area were very pleasureable. Its also convenient to all kinds of different area activities. The condo area was quiet and nicely taken care of, and the condo itself was pleasant and comfortable. It was also very nice to be able to work with Gina in the rental of the condo.
Owner response:Thanks Arnie for taking the time to write a review. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay and if you'd like to return we will take care of the cleaning!!

Very convient location, walk to Safeway, Albertsons, several restaurants and easy driving distance to anything you might want. The condo itself was very pleasant and adequate for the 2 of us. Very clean and it as well as the grounds are well maintained. Manager of the complex was most helpful in providing information on the surrounding area. The area is very well situated for walking. On days we didn't play golf we walked 3 to five miles in the immediate area which is wonderfully flat and easy to walk. We played golf 7 times at 6 diferent courses, all within 20 minutes of the unit. The Jan temps were in the 70s during the day and while the desert does get cool at night, only light weight jackets were needed. I would and have recommended the condo to friends.
