Photos and Description of the Scottsdale vacation house rental
3,200 sqf, one level, 4 bedrooms, heated pool, BBQ, desert garden

We are in a secluded neighborhood that embraces the desert experience. Our house sits on the most private and best cul-de-sac lot surrounded by natural desert on three sides. It is scenic and peaceful with desert views.

Split bedrooms provide separation between the master bedroom and the rest of the house. This is a light and airy house with tons of glass in the family room, kitchen, dining room and master bedroom, overlooking a desert oasis yard. The covered patio and built in BBQ complete the pool area as a place to mingle or just relax. And of course this house is in impeccable condition, completely renovated with love.

This property is exceptionally well located just off Scottsdale Road, yet presenting an uninterrupted desert view with privacy. Within 10 miles you will find 18 golf courses, including Troon North and The Boulders. If you tire of playing golf why not attend dinner at the Four Seasons or enjoy the scenery at Blue Martini?

This property has a lot to offer everyone, whether you are an avid golfer, nightlife aficionado, mountain or desert hiker, or just want to linger by the pool with an Edgar Allan Poe.

We had a marvelous vacation at this property in Scottsdale, and have already recommended it to many of our friends. The house was impeccable, the owners were very accommodating and quickly responded to our questions. My favorite was the gourmet kitchen, and of course the pool! We'll plan to return to this property each year now!

I don't even know where to begin. Our stay at Casa Hopi was everything we had hoped it would be! The warm hospitality that Kay and Hakan demonstrated was felt as soon as we entered the home! They truly care about their guests and are genuinely excited for you when you visit. The home is amazing, spacious, relaxing and meticulously kept. Not to mention equipped with everything and anything you could possibly need. The amenities were wonderful. WOW...we felt so pampered! The backyard is spectacular and the pool was so inviting. We felt as if we were at our own private resort. The only thing missing was our very own butler. My husband was like a kid in a candy store when he opened the grill to find that it was brand new. Everything was absolutely perfect!!! Thank you Kay and Hakan for sharing your beautiful home with us and especially for going above and beyond to make us feel at home!!! We hope to visit again soon!
Best Always,

Wonderful home in a wonderfully quiet neighbourhood with everything you need close by. The backyard is an oasis with beautiful desert landscape. Hakan is a pleasure to work with and always within reach should the need arise. Which it did not. Loved the iPod music with speakers throughout the home. Would not hesitate recommending this home. And who would have thought heated flooring would come in handy in Arizona. What an awesome touch. Nothing spared in this home.

My husband and I own two properties on VRBO and Home Away, and I manage them. Therefore, I thought I knew it all! Well, these owners made me look like an amateur! They do an outstanding job! The home is immaculate, and appears to be professionally designed, inside and out. The WOW factor on this home is incredible. I was so impressed by the inside, and the man of the house was equally impressed by the outside. Every tiny detail was seen to by the invisible owners. The toilets had sanitary seals, the toilet paper had seals, the master bedroom had Godiva chocolates by the bed. I just cannot say enough about the quality of this home. Located on a quiet cul de sac, we felt all by ourselves, encased in luxury. All of the furnishings are top drawer. The floor in the master bath is heated. Stacks of luxurious towels await you, along with comfortable mattresses and furniture. The kitchen has anything you can think of. We were completely at home. We loved it here and will return again when we can. Thank you to these gracious hosts.

Owner's Response: Thanks you for this glowing review. It really warms our hearts.

We decided to invest in a professional cleaning company since we know that first impressions lasts and arriving to a pristine house sets you up to enjoy the whole stay. Your comments confirm that we have made the right decision.

The fact that you mention the abundant towels also confirm that men don't understand women. :-) Let me explain; Kay insisted on multiple towels per person, with different sets for the pool and the bathrooms. She is also the reason for the high thread-count sheets, candles, flowers, artwork and all the other things that give the house that luxurious feeling. I also appreciate them, but she is the one who sees what others may appreciate and makes it real. I think with that long statement I actually also managed to thank my wife as well! :-)

We are looking forward to seeing you back soon again!

Best regards

Casa Hopi was a wonderful getaway. The pictures online truly depict the wonderful surroundings you will find, the home is beautifully decorated and well appointed. The location is convenient to local attractions, restaurants and golf. The pool and sunsets were spectacular and made the warm afternoons relaxing.

The homeowners were very helpful and made us feel right at home. We would highly recommend Casi Hopi for your Scottsdale vacation. We certainly plan to return again next year.

Wonderful time golfing with friends in Scottsdale

My husband and I, with our two best friends, stayed at Kay and Hakan's beautiful home for a week in January. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Scottsdale and staying in such a light, bright and clean house made the experience perfect. With mornings dropping down into freezing temperatures it was quite amazing waking up and walking on a warm floor. I am hooked. We are already looking forward to coming back in just a few months as my husband is attending a conference at Kierland in April. Kay and Hakan made our stay really smooth and enjoyable and we recommend their house to anyone looking to rent a modern, spacious private home in North Scottsdale.

My Fiancé and I recently had an extended stay in Scottsdale for business. After reviewing our options between stay staying at a resort or renting a home, we decided to rent a home. This was by far the best decision we made. Not only was the property was in our price range but it had all the comforts and privacy of our home but the quality of staying at five star resort.

The home offered many things we would not expect out of a seasonal rental. The kitchen featured a gourmet chef’s Viking appliances. It allowed us the ease of cooking and entertaining at the level we are accustom to in our own home. The bedrooms were very spacious and there was a heated floor in the master bathroom! The pool was perfect for a morning swim or great place to relax in during the evenings from the heat.

The weather in early autumn was amazing and perfect for outdoor BBQs. As an additional surprise, at dusk in the nearby Saguaro trees owls came out glided across the desert sky. It was majestic sight for us and our guests as we dined outdoors.

Overall, our experience was amazing! The owners we very easy to do business with, they very much cared about our experience and our enjoyment of their home. We couldn’t ask for nicer or more gracious people to rent from. The property was very centrally located for our needs. It was minutes to Phoenix, close to nearby golf courses and shopping centers. The neighborhood was quiet and the home had amazing desert views. We look forward to our next trip to Scottsdale and would highly recommend this property to others.

Time in Paradise

5 of 5
Submitted: January 15, 2013 Stayed: January 2013
When we decided to vacation away from the snow in Sweden and take in a little golf we thought long and hard about our ideal paradise. We looked at numerous properties including hotels and this was by far the best choice. From the moment you walk through the front door there is an air of tranquility and understated elegance. We loved the layout of the home, the master suite is in one wing and the guest rooms in another, this afforded us great privacy as we shared the rental with our friends. It is a spacious and open floor plan, and it was a treat to seat 10 people for dinner (they have a magnificent dining table). I loved waking up each day and seeing the desert's natural beauty. The master suite (as indeed all the rooms at the rear of the property) have ceiling to floor windows which allows you to rest your eyes on the sunrise and sunsets over the pool and beautiful garden that surrounds it. A big plus for us was there are no neighbors overlooking the property so we were able to swim in the heated pool without intrusion. We loved the sound system which allowed us to play music in every room including the pool area. The house has been exquisitely decorated and everything is fresh and new. I am a stickler for clean linens and was bowled over by both the high thread count and abundance of fluffy towels; even the pool towels were luxurious. The property is in a great location and if you are golf lovers and want to play a new course every few days you have hit the jackpot. We highly recommend this property and will certainly stay again the next time we visit AZ. Thank you homeowners for everything you did to make our stay in your beautiful home so truly special.
